They are spectacular dolls.
News, reviews and photographs of Modern Fashion Dolls including Kingdom Doll, Fashion Royalty, Sybarite, Tonner Doll, Gene Marshall, Barbie and my own experiences as a doll collector.
My dream in life is to know of a dollstore-owning "Deep Throat" (so to speak) who could divulge this information.

There is a number of things Tonner is manufacturing that I "like" but honestly not enough to buy, and certainly not at their original or Tonner "sales" prices, either.
When dolls are in this price range, it knocks me WAY out of league.
Debox what you have & may have forgotten & move forward.
Sorry, Bob!
I doubt the doll store owners know how much it costs to manufacture individual dolls unless they are themselves the manufacturer.
DeleteAs beautiful as they are, they are definitely aimed at a very specific niche market.
ReplyDeleteI believe they came out a little while after the movie and the customers they were designed for may have moved on to newer "must have" items by then.
Beautiful to look at....but I wouldn't want to spend money on one.
As always love the blog.

There were many delays in this doll getting to market. Isn't there another Avatar movie coming?
DeleteI would also think since doll dealers are being cut out of Tonner's plans (he seems to want to sell direct and eliminate doll dealers) they wouldn't be privy to what these dolls cost wholesale, heck I'm not even sure there's a wholesale price for them.
ReplyDeleteWhatever...the latest email from Tonner regarding the upcoming virtual factory sale reads like spam from an internet affiliate marketer.
I'll have to look at that again.
DeleteThanks for posting.
Well, now Tonner is in the Ebay business. Nice.
