My collection of Pinky St dolls and my bad habit of buying and selling them
Unlike Sylvanian Family and Lundby houses, Melissa & Doug dollhouses aren’t wired. This means getting light inside is a problem.
Of course, this means positioning the Pinky closer to the open area of the house, where there is more light. Great thing about this, of course, is that they’d look as if the room is the perfect scale for them! At 1:12, the room is comfortable for the Pinky’s height, but it still looks rather odd, specially when placed near household fixtures.

Here’s Pucchi at the hallway standing beside the staircase. As you can see, the banister is as tall as she is. Going up those stairs would be hell for the knees. Details like these are dead giveaways that the Victorian dollhouse is not Pinky scale. Well, that and the “Scale: 1:12″ printed in the box.
However, if you’re just shooting outside the house (using it as a backdrop) or inside the rooms, this is actually pretty nice.
One thing I noticed about Melissa & Doug toys though, is that their doll houses have different scales. I saw this doll house that certainly wasn’t 1:12, and there was another that looked as if it’s 1:16 or even 1:18. Eitherway, Melissa & Doug is another brand to watch out for Pinky-scale doll houses and furnitures.

Heinji and I bought a bunch of Pinkies and Pinky-sized accessories with us to our picnic at the La Mesa Ecopark. After our delicious lunch of adobo packed bento style, we set up our dolls for a mini photoshoot.
When the Series 6 Pinkies were due to come out, Vance Project described Mikimiki as Maki’s rival. It’s easy to see why — both look like fashionistas and both have Queen Bee written all over them. They seem to find a common ground though… gossip!
Heinji’s Maki and Mikimiki are seen here sharing this very comfortable and very pink comforter from the Wanju Modern Bedroom set.

Seems like Makoto is enjoying her plush beanbag! Not exactly what you’d expect outdoors, this pink plush beanbag is a part of the Modern Bedroom showcase by Wanju. Wanju makes wooden doll house furnitures that are perfect Pinky scale. Cute, but since it’s made of wood, it’s quite heavy. But still, you can’t beat the pink!
In the background is the table Heinji was picked up at this toy shop he frequents in Circle C, along with some deserts from random Re-ment sets. And of coure, a cocktail umbrella to complete the set.
