One of the three Integrity Toys' dolls at this year's IFDC was "Never Predictable." I purchased her on an impulse as I love that long curly haired style and the gown looked pretty.
I was not disappointed with the fashion. It's not what I would call great but it is made very well and fits beautifully. I don't love the color. The accessories were matching shoes with fiddly string ties that I had to tape to the back of her legs, panties, a chunky gold metal bangle and boring earrings and a ring. There were full-length gloves as well which I didn't even try to put on as I don't have the patience for gloves like that.
I don't like the sculpt at all. She's very hard-looking. Her face looks all angled and pointy to me. Her sculpt is called Adaline King and I think she must have been one of the color infusion faces. Why would they do that for a convention companion doll?
So, I will try to sell her head.
I have redressed an older Vanessa in the fashion and I am pleased. She is holding her hand up because I had to put a touch of glue on the back of the finger wearing the ring. I do that with all my dolls who wear rings. The glue comes off with no residue and I don't lose rings.
I really do not understand why IFDC used this obscure sculpt as well as the Barbie lookalike, Finley. I didn't think either sculpt were popular among collectors. I find this particular sculpt rather manly looking. And I agree with you about the gown. That pea green color is unappealing.

Thank you Terri for your honest review.
ReplyDeleteI never wanted to go to Las Vegas so that's one of the reasons I have never attended the IFDC. Yet I have bought some of the convention dolls, my favorite being Born to gamble Kyori, but not recently as I am not into Nu Face dolls.
I think your doll is nice for a Barbie doll, not so much for a IT doll. I was disappointed by their offer this year... but at least I didn't have to spend more money.
The color looks good on this Vanessa.
