I manage to make it worth my while with the $20 rewards and the forum info. As for sneaks, perks etc, I'll be cautiously optimistic.

Which is why I always find it ridiculous when people on the W club act oh so grateful that IT is, pretty please with sugar on it, giving them the opportunity to PURCHASE a doll. And also when the W Club itself insists that being in the club is a privilege we should be grateful for, when in reality it is the other way around. Never underestimate the power of manipulation. Someone didn't go to Wharton for nothing. poppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09064123327462038174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-41045467235598756432016-01-03T20:25:30.641-05:002016-01-03T20:25:30.641-05:00Very different.

The dolls were not that intersting to me the past years, except for 2 or 3. But articulated Silkstones sounds very interesting to not be part of that.. Just for that I will join this year.

Comparing clubs, I think that is a whole lot more perks than IT offers with its $50 dollar fee (which I guess will be higher this year) and one 20 off coupon that cannot even be applied to most items and the fact that we are paying THEM to be a marketing focus group ( I think they should pay us). I guess IT does offer the "first to know" perks, but in terms of what we get, it is not the same. BC is really worth it money wise and is a different club than the W club I guess. poppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09064123327462038174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-46259854888924934562016-01-03T03:30:45.749-05:002016-01-03T03:30:45.749-05:00I am looking foward to seen the silkstone having ...I am looking foward to seen the silkstone having the new body and she will be capable of pose as i saw in an articleayukinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-64709992528172226872016-01-02T17:31:11.350-05:002016-01-02T17:31:11.350-05:00I'll be rejoining.

I worry about the price tag for articulation, though. And here's to hoping the outfits on said Silkstones are of better quality, too.

I do think Mattel has been listening to us and making changes, and well, you can't beat the sales now and then too. And I also find that it helps, that their customer service is top notch..while I have only had to contact BC on a few occasions over the years, I have always felt like the have more that compensated me for an issues I had.

I suspect maybe perhaps? they are making the little ballroom chair featured in the dioramas with the silkstones, we can only hope. Alot of collectors wanted that chair reproduced, so maybe they are attempting to do this. The face sculpts on some of the fantasy dolls and the newer dolls are extremely modern looking and do not look so cartoonish so I am hopeful.

Sadly I missed 2 Barbies I wanted last year that sold out before I had a chance to buy. The chair sounds interesting, and I can see at least 4 purchases to make now.Debbie Gloomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03969656317156340174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-89042880174245400032015-12-30T13:47:57.303-05:002015-12-30T13:47:57.303-05:00I hope you're right.I hope you're right.
