2010 might have seen the birth of Ixtee’s Pika and Mika (both now sold out *sob*), but 2011 is shaping up to be the Year of the Rabbit in more ways than one.
Remember Petworks’ Usaggie? She created quite a rush on pre-orders when she was launched last year. There’s just something about that strangely blank face combined with the tall skinny ears that is delightful.

So for the new(-ish) Rabbit Year we have new Usaggies:

There’s a pink version of the classic Usaggie and a new ‘Shy’ version. She comes in both pink and white and has a different face up with pink cheeks. She still comes on the Odeco and Nikki body, which works well for those of us who have already collected a substantial Odeco and Nikki wardrobe. It’s also great news for dolly seamstresses with DCR pattern books and she can share clothes with Middie Blythe too. Win!
Next up in bunny business is the South Korean rabbit, Tokkissi:

She has been popping up on Flickr of late, charming all those before her. With her droopy blushy cheeks and wide-set eyes she can look strangely melancholic, though this is offset by the perkiness of her little ears and her round ball tail. All-in-all she’s a weird little creature, but weird in a potentially fabulous Wonderland-esque way.

She comes with random eyes and starts at 6,900 yen. There’s even a Tokissi Etsy shop and she can share clothes with Nikki too. I fear resistance is futile: Tokissi is set to rampage through the doll world this year!
