Tyler's 10th Anniversary Dolls For Sale at Tonner Direct
For those of you with a few hundred to spare right before the Holiday Season, the remaining Anniversary dolls have gone on sale at Tonner Direct.
First up is the beautiful "It was a Very Good Decade." LE 150. Priced at $295. She would certainly add sparkle to any collection. I have heard that the sequin fabric is the same that Robert used in his human clothing line. These were the centerpiece dolls.
"A Perfect Ten" LE 200 is being offered for $195. She's worth it. You saw my photos of my event doll. Here is Tonner's photo:The surprise return of Mei Li in the form of an Ultra Basic doll was very well received. According to the site, there is only a limited amount remaining right now. More will be received early in December. They are priced at $59.95. She comes packaged in a clear plastic box dressed only in the white body suit. No shoes or stand are included.

A Perfect Ten ~ Tyler Commemorative Doll
This is the event doll we received at the anniversary celebration on Saturday, November 7 at the Wiltwyck Country Club in Kingston, NY. My jaw dropped and I sat in awe when I opened the box. Her face, hairstyle and magnificent dress are so fitting on this occasion of her tenth anniversary. Here are some of my preliminary photographs of her.
More about the event will be posted. Stay tuned!

Tyler Wentworth 10th Anniversary Retailer's Special
There is another anniversary special Signature Style Tyler Wentworth doll. This one is exactly like the blonde in the post below but she is a brunette and is an edition of 300. I think the brunette is quite beautiful.
Cherished Friends is offering the doll for $127. which is 15% off the retail price of $149.99.

Signature Style Tyler Wentworth® doll in celebration of Tyler’s milestone.
I think the price of $149. is twice as high as it should be and that is why I am hesitating to order her. On top of that I would have to pay 8% sales tax because I live in NY. She will not be coming home with me.
It might have been significant if TDC had issued these dolls at the same price the originals were - $79.99. I would have ordered two of them immediately.
If I remember correctly, I paid $25. for my first Signature Style Tyler at a trunk show in Hurley. I loved that doll and photographed her endlessly. She, too, wore a white blouse, black skirt, black hosiery and shoes.
Here are the versions of the Signature Style dolls that have been issued. Each edition was produced in brunette, red and blonde versions. All these images were borrowed from the Tyler Wentworth Archive except the second picture from the top which is the actual picture of my first Tyler doll.
1999 Signature Style $79.99
2001 Signature Style BA (Bending Arms) $79.99
2003 Signature Style - AR Red, Blonde, Brunette $79.99
(The blonde was redressed for this picture but originally came dressed as the others.
2004 Signature Style - BW - Brunette shown.
Also available as a blonde and redhead. All had blue forward-glancing eyes.
These were the first bending wrist Tyler dolls. Retail $79.99

I loved these BW dolls so much that I bought three of each!
