Technically it's one doll that you can customize :)

Oh, kinda similar to the mannequins in New Leaf? Nice

No, like all the other items that can be customized. You can use a kit or take it to Cyrus and change up the doll. So I got a whole bunch and made them all different

New Horizons is more centered around customization, crafting, and decoration than New Leaf. There is SO MUCH MORE you can do with customizing & decorating than stuff like the mannequins.
(Although, ironically & unfortunately, there are no mannequins like the NL ones in NH lol. They are two different games with veryyy different features, imo, I try not to compare all of them in a harsh manner- I see them as their own versions, a slow progression over time. If you also like the Sims series maybe think of it in the same vein. I think NL & NH are the most fun to play simultaneously though)
In NH Cyrus & Reese no longer have Re-Tail but Harv now has his own island & they have a camper there. Cyrus can change the styles of certain items you buy from the Nooks and elsewhere. Like all those dolls above are just "Doll," but different variants. It used to be a lot harder to collect them all before Cyrus could do this for you. There's also DIY crafting & customizing that you can do yourself now, but it only applies to certain items.
A lot of people still prefer NL but I think they both have pros and cons! I love them all.

Are you talking about New Horizons or the dolls?
If you're still even thinking about Animal Crossing I'd totally do it if I were you, it's so worth it. Unfortunately it's no longer being updated but that last update PACKED it FULL of content, there's still a hefty online community for it & if you play at your own pace & just have fun there's still plenty to do for quite a long time.
I'm almost hitting 3 years of playing and 2 years of having my own island, and I'm still obsessed.

The game lol I was invested on New Leaf at the time, but couldn't buy New Horizons yet...
I have to say, I played a bit in an emulator (thanks to my brother's pc) just to try it, but I still want to get it on my console, is just not the same. And now I'm seeing these adorable dolls, I'll have to think of some way to get it lol

If you have Happy Home Paradise Lucy‘s vacation home request is doll themed! I recently finished decorating it for her.
I wish you could put some items on walls like how gyroids have shelves when you display them on a wall. I’d love it if I could put the doll toy item on a wall shelf :P Your room here looks good tho, there’s some nice variation with the heights at which the dolls are displayed. Also I didn’t know you could interact with them to put their hands up, how cute!

Same in TS3, I downloaded “Barbie dolls” for the game!
