It is made of soft vinyl (material mentioned in the keywords), with a smooth and shiny finish on the visible parts of the face, arms, and legs. The doll features a large, expressive head, plump cheeks, and a characteristic wide smile, with the tongue sticking out to the side. The eyes are black, large, and drawn in a typical manga style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe doll wears a schoolgirl outfit consisting of a double-breasted navy blue jacket, a white collar, and a light grey pleated skirt. A red ribbon adorns the neck, and two large red bows are visible at the back of the head, holding two brown pigtails. A yellow shoulder bag completes the outfit, crossing the jacket on the front. The white socks and black rounded-toe shoes are molded in the same material as the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe general style and clothing evoke 1970s-80s Japan, a period when this type of doll was particularly popular in shops and as an advertising item. All visible elements (facial expression, proportions, style of the skirt and coat) correspond well to vintage Japanese graphic codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe facial details are clear, with drawn eyelashes, thin eyebrows, and a slight rosy tint on the cheeks. The arms, hands, and legs are simple, with few visible articulations. The doll stands on its own thanks to its wide shoes. No logo or inscription is visible on the photographed side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe contrast between the soft, matte texture of the textile clothing (jacket, skirt) and the shine of the vinyl parts accentuates the retro look of this figurine. The whole is well-proportioned, with a compact and stable silhouette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item sold as is.
