It would be interesting to see this IRL. As it is she's s love or hate it piece. For me I would give my final verdict once I see the real deal.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10960634739350379936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-42081867661530442512014-06-04T16:36:38.631-04:002014-06-04T16:36:38.631-04:00Yes, of course I've seen the GWTW doll...all o...Yes, of course I've seen the GWTW doll...all of them.

It is not for everyone, as they tend to overdesign and complicate gowns with patterns, textures and Baroque stamps or images...<br /><br />But I agree, if they get rid of the pockets, the neck and the skirt pollera.. It will be a lot better..<br /><br /><br /><br />Ghost Vaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16654878296919426518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-23974740119979838982014-06-03T21:53:20.514-04:002014-06-03T21:53:20.514-04:00They're asking ridiculous prices for Silkstone...They're asking ridiculous prices for Silkstones now.

Remembered those girls were a bit problematic too. Maybe this type of patterned fabric is a bit tricky to work with. You can go easily overboard with it. But as it is she's tolerable I guess. I seen worse before. Oh yes talking about Gone With The Wind, they did make a doll with that white frilly dress. Wonder if you seen her. Rather cute IMO...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10960634739350379936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-42910803546753891132014-06-03T17:51:25.063-04:002014-06-03T17:51:25.063-04:00I actually like the doll, I think she'll look ...I actually like the doll, I think she'll look a lot nicer with her hair down and partially covering her forehead. However I detest her outfit. It does not seem to match, makes her look boxy, and why is the print so large? Mattel of all companies should be able to get fabrics with scale appropriate prints. <br /><br />Also, that skirt has such a weird construction. It looks like a simple straight skirt, why does it need so many seams?Aubrey Silverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06106752101508829876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-20687438879547511562014-06-03T16:08:53.298-04:002014-06-03T16:08:53.298-04:00You're right, Terri.
