They weren't going to say the reason Tullabelle got a new sculpt was because she had ridiculous duck lips.

The face lift was not as much of a surprise as was the entire announcement. I'm somewhat out of the loop and rarely read the W Club stuff. However, I did notice that there was a teaser post recently. It was posted the day after an entire thread concerning Veronique's polka dot gown was deleted by the W Club police. Good diversion. Did it work?
If not, perhaps this will work:
Starting with this totally radical collection, Tulabelle is ready to face the world like never before with a new, more mature look, created especially for you!That's really nice of them. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
The new sculpt is a huge improvement and the entire collection is interesting, varied and contains unusual accessories.

There are four different dressed dolls each sporting a $150. price tag.
Idol Thoughts
This version would have been cool as a basic doll for a lower price...no jacket, no ill-fitting pants...

Very interesting fabric treatment on jacket and skirt. Again, I love the shoes! She's got a Katy Keene hairstyle.

This outfit leaves me cold except for the shoes (again) and the wonderful purse. I love them!
The rest is Barbie-Poppy Parker super-sized.

Wicked & Divine
Fun! Her hair is delightful. It's the same hair style that a Jamieshow doll sported a few years ago. I like seeing these unusual non-hair-bump styles especially when they're done properly. It remains to be seen as to whether the workers will be able to reproduce this look correctly.
A problem I see is the ill-fitting shorts. This same bad fit is seen above on the Idol Thoughts doll. Someone has to redraft the pattern for a proper fit.
Didn't Tulabelle have her own body previously or was she on the teen Poppy body all along?
Reminder:
*Please note that the dolls unveiled today are prototypes and the final production dolls, colors and fabrics may vary slightly. Note that these are all 16-inch tall fashion dolls and are not in 1/6 scale.
