✽ ✽ ✽ parco limited

< PARCO Limited is the first Neo-Blythe. Released in collaboration with the department store PARCO, she was produced in a very limited batch of 1000 dolls. Each doll came with a certificate of authenticity. On the day of her release at PARCO in Shibuya, she attracted quite the crowd, with the line wrapping around the corner. She sold out very quickly.

Her release date was June 23rd, which is regarded as Neo-Blythe's birthday. According to the tropical zodiac this makes her a Cancer, which is fitting for our beloved moon-faced, moody gal. According to the Chinese zodiac, she was born in the year of the metal snake.



Her box is orange and is decorated with colorful paisley-reminiscent flourishes. It features a hot pink clover and purple Blythe logo.



Her stock includes:
✽ a paisley halter dress
✽ white underwear
✽ white tights
✽ white go-go boots
✽ a blue cell phone
✽ a gold chain belt
✽ a pink bag
✽ four pink holographic star stickers

Her hair is a reddish brown parted on the left side and no fringe. Her eyeshadow is a warm green, her face is shiny, and her lips are very pink. Her eyes are boggled. Before the clover stand was introduced, Neo-Blythes came with a Licca stand, a short clear plastic stand that was meant to hold the dolls from the legs. Her paisley dress is a nod to her 70's origins in mini-length for the modern girl. The silhouettes of the 60's were having a big moment in Japan with the popularity of Shibuya-kei music and the genre's most prominent artists such as Pizzicato Five and CAPSULE sporting outfits inspired by the time period, so her outfit was likely a big hit.
