They seem like a step down, and they're being sold as a step up.<br /><br />The head mold is ...I'm sorry, it's just awful. The price tag is another deal-breaker. <br /><br />I'm baffled by their popularity and wondering if there will be a day that more people see what I'm seeing.Jendininoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-91644488144637221872009-08-03T06:07:19.139-04:002009-08-03T06:07:19.139-04:00I completely agree with Terri's last comment -...I completely agree with Terri's last comment - playline heads on an FR bodie.

The hairstyle reminds me of Dress Me Luchia, another IFDC doll. <br /><br />Other than that I am just not feeling the Monogram Collection thus far, and I am okay with that. They are lovely, but remind me of playline heads transfered to FR bodies.Terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08323592610065325294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-84015737023545757302009-08-02T22:01:54.399-04:002009-08-02T22:01:54.399-04:00To J:

Silkstone Barbie's "Midnight Mischief" (or whatever the outfit is called with the cape? LOL)? The dress also reminds me of the lavendar cocktail dress, with the swirl of organza overlay, that FR had at Convention in 2006. (Or was that '07)<br /><br />I won't be collecting these. For this much money.. I would rather have a taller doll.<br /><br />Thanks for posting.. always great to read your Blog..<br />J.J.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-80127283097939584672009-08-02T13:39:51.876-04:002009-08-02T13:39:51.876-04:00Personally I like the Monogram face, but making th...Personally I like the Monogram face, but making them without lashes must surely cost less than dolls WITH lashes. These dolls do NOT come with the interchangeable hands, although they can be switched out. While the outfits are very nice, they do not include any extra pieces. Except for the first Monogram Life Ball which was for charity, I find them pricey for what you get.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-87603021151881534862009-08-02T13:16:48.359-04:002009-08-02T13:16:48.359-04:00Black Party has a skin colored shell top underneat...Black Party has a skin colored shell top underneath the jacket.

Black Party is very edgy, I love her too, but if I saw correctly she has an overlay on her chest, kinda nude in color like bewitched Luchia's dress color. Very nice dolls, just with the economy and life happening this year has been a low one for doll buying.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-50579829914525687562009-08-02T12:29:12.582-04:002009-08-02T12:29:12.582-04:00I think FR, NuFace, Misaki and Dynamite girls are ...I think FR, NuFace, Misaki and Dynamite girls are the only ones with the eyelashes. I personally do not like the molded eyelids which is why I am not a fan of older Barbie/repros, Silkstone or Valia. While I think Best Drama is gorgeous, I don't anticipate buying the Monogram line though I do like their fashions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
