Tonner's 2012 Fall/Holiday Line Release

This afternoon the pictures of Tonner's new dolls were revealed. It is a large release. Collectors who loved the 16" Marilyn Monroe will be happy to know that there is one new basic Marilyn as Pola Debevoise (?) and four era appropriate fashions. A fully dressed 16" Marilyn in the hot pink "Diamonds" gown is also going to be available for $189.99.

Marilyn Monroe as Pola Debevoise

$124.99

There are five dressed Precarious dolls and one basic. It bothers me that new Precarious dolls have been introduced and the ones I currently have on pre-order haven't even shipped.
This one looks a lot like Raven and I thought the redhead was Antoinette until I enlarged the image enough to see her face clearly.

Wild Bird

$189.99

Romantic Gold

$224.99

My favorite fashion is on a dressed Cami. She is lovely but I have enough Camis right now. I would like the outfit.

Definitely Downtown

$179.99

Also making an appearance are Gone With the Wind dolls, Peggy Harcourt, Nu Mood, Memphis characters,  Ron Weasley, Vampire Diaries, Marvel Comics, Wizard of Oz (Steampunk Style), The Hunger Games, Twilight New Moon, American Models, Disney and 10" Patsy. I'm out of breath just typing that.
Where is Tiny Kitty and Simone Rouge?

The Nu Mood Tyler looks really odd. Is this a revamped sculpt or just a bad promo shot? Yikes. But the price is right! She comes wearing a white bodysuit and the wig.

Nu Mood™ Tyler Fashion - Lily

 $59.99

 There is also a Nu Mood Sydney that doesn't look like Sydney, one with the Breathless sculpt and one with the very popular Cinderella sculpt.

Nu Mood™ Jess Fashion - Lily

$59.99

There are way too many dolls for me to post all of the images here. Please click this link to go to the Tonner Doll website and see all the dolls.

 

Seen on Prego This Morning

Look at this excellent and realistic repaint of Tonner's Stefan Salvatore doll. I think it's fantastic and a huge improvement over the original.

Repaint by Deborah Connelly-Bombich

The artist goes by the board name of Deborah/justCreations. This is some major talent!

Deborah's website is under construction but you can see many of her past repaints there by scrolling down to the Galleries link and clicking on the pictures.

Promo Photos Don't Always Tell the Truth

On Prego today JaneNY posted a photo of Tonner's Salvatore brothers,  Damon and Stefan, who are characters from the Vampire Diaries. What a difference a real life photo makes. These dolls are hot. Their sculpts are fabulous. Jane said about Damon, "So much better than his promo pics. His outfit is wonderful. 'Leather' jacket is distressed and very well done. Good quality on his henley, and the most surprising thing was Tonner also included his sleeveless undershirt."

Of course it also makes a difference that she styled their hair very well!

 These are the original promotional photos from the TDC.

Tonner Pre-Toy Fair Release

 I'm just going to highlight just a few of the new releases. Stranger characters first.

Kermit The Frog - Wild Frogs (LE500) Price $69.99

He's cute, if you like frogs. I love the jacket. Kermit is 11" tall and is good friends with Miss Piggy.  ;-)

Futterwacken (LE300) Price $249.99

If I could rent this doll for a week, I'd do it. That's how I am with outrageous character dolls. I like them for a short period of time and then they get tiring. There's no point to redressing because their fashions and make up are what makes them special. I absolutely love the costume on this doll as I loved Tarrant, The Mad Hatter's costume previously.
Johnny Depp  head sculpt, 17" Mat O'Neill body, green eyes with red wigged hair, lily skintone.

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dee (LE 100) $374. Set

These characters from Alice in Wonderland are resin. Outfits are removable but shoes and socks are painted. They have 5 points of articulation.
I always thought their names were Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum.
They were very funny in the movie and for an Alice fan, they will be an enchanting addition to a collection. They are cute.

2011 Cami Wigged Basic (LE500) Price $109.99

 This Cami comes with two wigs. The other one :

 The best thing about her is the inset eyes. That's a new feature - besides the fact that she and her sister releases do not have crimped hair. Yay. The other new Camis do not have inset eyes.

Damon Salvatore (LE1000) Price $169.99

 Thud! This guy is hot. He represents a character from the Vampire Diaries.
Damon has the 17" Matt O'Neill body, blue eyes and brunette wigged hair. Wigged hair on a male doll is, to me, always superior as it lays better.

James Collins (LE 500)

17" Matt O'Neill™ Body; Brown Eyes, Raven Hair, Tan Skintone

Price $ 189.99

James Collins is so vanilla compared to Damon and reminds me of Lord Asriel from the Golden Compass - at least his suit does.  He should have been given a wig, too.

Daniel Craig is so hot.

Don't forget, there will be more on February 11, 2011.
