Pinky:St Series A Repaints 1-3
To satisfy collector's needs for different bodies and accessories, Vance Toys began issuing 'repaints' of the current Pinky:St dolls. The first repaints were of numbers 1-3. Due to the collector's ecstatic response, more repaints were issued of the other models featuring color variations on body types, eyes, and hair. Repaints of the first three models are the hardest and rarest to find, as only a small number were produced. It's not uncommon to see these repaint versions go anywhere from 2,500 JPY up to 5,000 JPY on Yahoo Japan's auction system.
February 6, 2006 - New repaints of 1-6 have just been released in Japan (scroll down the right hand side)! The series B repaints are mostly pastel themed, with the 6 accessories kit in brown.
The 1,2 & 3 repaint figures also came with a small 'animal' doll (bunny, rabbit or cat). Instead of the typical button/pin, a small keychain item was included on a ball chain ring. This has a vinyl front featuring the face of the repaint, and the back is a soft velvety-type fabric.
Here are some pictures of the 1, 2 & 3 repaints.
