Pinky Street
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pinky:St, also written Pinky Street, are plastic (Polyethylene Terephthalate) figures designed by BabySue and manufactured by the Japanese company Vance Project. Currently 14 regular Pinky Street dolls and an accessory set have been released, as well as repaints. Repaints are differentiated from the original-color releases by sequential lettering (e.g., the first repaint for the first doll is referred to as 1A, the second repaint as 1B, etc.) The figures are compatible with 1:18 scale dollhouses, furniture, vehicles and accessories.
There are also many special edition Pinkys (alternatively, Pinkies) such as Go! Go!, In Town and Acchi Kochi. There are also figures designed by BabySue in collaboration with various other Japanese artists. Some examples of these are the Tenjo Tenge figures, the Gunslinger Girl figure, and the Neon Genesis Evangelion set.
A unique feature of the Pinky Street dolls is interchangeable parts. The heads, hair styles, clothing and accessories can be easily switched between figures according to taste. Beyond the base sets available for purchase, the figures also enjoy an active customization community. Pinky garage kits are also available.
