I realised I hadn’t done a doll-related post for way too long, so this is for anyone one who has ever wondered about the size of Neo Blythe doll and Middie Blythe doll feet! Oddly their feet are very similar sizes – both are approximately 7.5mm wide; Neo’s are about 2.1cm long, and Middie’s are about 1.8cm long.

While I’m on the subject of measurements, Neo Blythe is about 28cm tall, with a head circumference of 26.7cm give or take a millimetre. Middie Blythe is about 20.3cm tall with a head circumference of 19.5cm. (Measurements are as accurate as I could make them, but there are things like hair thickness and the fact that Blythe feet aren’t flat to take into account).
I know stock Blythe doll bodies have limited movement, but what I love is that they are pretty robust, and (unlike with Pullip) I don’t have to worry about a limb falling off randomly! Speaking of limbs, Middies’ knees don’t bend.

When I bought my Middie I’d forgotten that they only have one set of eyes – so no pull cord - with a wheel at the back of the head that moves them from side to side. It was actually quite a relief to only buy one new set of eye chips (not yet installed, because the stock ones are VERY firmly glued in). I would love it if Neo heads could tilt like Middies (and if Middies could swivel at the hips like their big sisters), but there are pros and cons to everything, and that includes dolls!
My models for this are Alice, who is a custom Simply Love Me (Radiance), and Mia, who is a custom Dainty Meadow. Alice’s underwear is Decopatch paper (so it’s permanent); Mia is yet to get hers done.
