Wilde Imagination's New Offerings

I swear it's enough to drive a doll collector mad. Several new Ellowyne and Evangeline items were released last week.

I am so in love with this Evangeline but I will not buy another EG until they fix her body issues.  I hope someone over at the TDC reads this and takes it seriously because I'm on a campaign to get that body reworked. PLEASE DO SOMETHING to make Evangeline more user friendly. She's stiff and awkward and for a doll whose price is $175. we should get a doll that poses nicely and can sit up straight. Doncha think?


 She is called Imaginary Life. LE350 Her price is $175. She's vinyl with inset teal eyes and applied lashes. I want her so badly.  I  love that she's not wearing black, gray or red. She is so beautiful. I don't think I would even redress her. 
This is Dark Desire. $175. Vinyl. Inset green eyes. Rooted black hair with white stripes. She is cool but reminds me of so many of prior EGs.

The newest EG fashion is called Gothic Romance. It's priced at a painful $110. and doesn't come with shoes. The shoes, Plum Paces, would go well with this fashion. Of course it's gorgeous but it's not a must have. Will fit resin and vinyl bodies. LE300. Ships after June 10th. 
Some EG fashions are so fabric rich one could make two outfits from them.  The fabrics used are gorgeous and I haven't found a single problem with any fashion item I've purchased. 


"FREE Shipping on any order of $75 or More! Free shipping within Continental U.S. only. International customers use Promo Code SMILE14INT at checkout to receive $9.95 OFF any order of $75 or more. This promotion ends June 4th at midnight ~ so don't wait!"

The newest Ellowyne is called Going in Circles. Rooted brown hair and painted green eyes. The outfit is cute. She retails for $149. and is an LE of 1000. She comes with a stand.

There are some other new dolls and fashions. See the WI site for those. You can download a digital catalog and see really big images. Nice!

Ellowyne has a new shoe collection. If you want to buy them separately, that's an option, too. As a collection the price is $128.


Doll Reader/Haute Doll Exclusive Produced by Angelic Dreamz

In cooperation with Angelic Dreamz, the Canandaigua, N.Y.-based manufacturer and retailer of the popular JAMIEShow fashion ball-jointed dolls, Doll Reader/Haute Doll introduces an exclusive resin fashion BJD, Eshe. This 16-inch (41-cm) articulated doll wears a form-fitting gold dress with puff sleeves, reminiscent of the Egyptian queen herself, gold metal filigree earrings and necklace, and an Egyptian queen's hat. Eshe comes with a head cap, and she has another wig that collectors can swap in to change her look completely. She comes with a certificate of authenticity that identifies her as a Haute Doll exclusive. Eshe is a limited edition of 50 worldwide.

 Eshe will be available for sale exclusively through Doll Reader/Haute Doll for a limited number of readers. One of the best things about her, for those who like to play with their dolls (and who doesn't!), is that she will fit perfectly into clothing designed for other 16-inch fashion dolls, offering the potential for a whole range of new looks. Still, no matter how you dress her, Eshe's essence won't change.


She has a Middle Eastern look. She wears a stunning form-fitting gold dress with puff sleeves, gold metal filigree earrings and necklace, and an Egyptian queen's hat. She also carries a staff, giving her an even more regal bearing. Her platform shoes elevate her to an imposing presence suitable for Egyptian nobility. The resin doll comes with a head cap, and she has another wig that collectors can swap in to change her look completely. 

Eshe, dressed doll. LE 50. $425. LE 50. Free shipping for US orders only. An additional shipping charge will be applied to all international orders. Please note, dolls are subject to a 6.25% sales tax when shipped to Massachusetts' residents/businesses. Click here to order.

Until June 1 you will need a password to access the Doll Reader store. Do I have one?

W Club Doll #1 - Monaco Royale

Ways to Spend your Money

Every now and then (more now than then) I come across an enticing item that I'd buy if it weren't for the fact that I either have it already, have too many of them already, shouldn't buy anymore and .....you know.
I hate to see a good item go unpurchased so I will present it on the blog.

I need a good title for this feature - suggestions welcome.

Anyway...on the Show and Sell Site someone is selling 5 Fashion royalty bodies for $50 shipped. They are various colors. One looks like a tall body the others are straight arm bodies. These would make great mannequins and/or diorama items. Or you can take them apart and make strange jewelry with them. Bend them over and use for a table base...oh the things I can think of.

I do not know the seller although I may have done business with her in the past as I've done business with pretty much everyone it seems.

If you do buy them, tell her Terri sent you.



Of course, while you're there, take a look at the stuff I have for sale.
