Tonner's 2013 Fall Holiday Preview

Today the new line of Tiny Kitty dolls was posted on Tonner's website along with Patsy, Agnes Dreary, Willy Wonka, Cami and Ballerinas. You can see them all at http://www.tonnerdoll.com/latest-releases.
Here are the Tiny Kittys:
Dinner Dance-Dressed Doll-$139.99
Dinner Dance - This is the dress under the coat.

Pink Champagne Supper - Dressed Doll - $139.00
Basic Necessities Kitty - Basic Doll - $79.99
Garden Club Luncheon Dressed Doll $139.99
Perfect Summer Day Outfit $79.99
I Danced All Night - Outfit - $89.99
Wine and Roses Outfit $79.99
I have mentioned many times that I have a large Tiny Kitty collection and that I am very happy to see TK return. My first impressions on this collection are mixed. I like Dinner Dance, Pink Champagne Supper and I Danced All Night and will most likely add them to my collection. I don't care for the wig on the basic doll. Usually when Tonner offers a wigged doll, he also offers for sale separate wigs. It would have been a good value if an additional wig were included.
I think the Garden Club Luncheon overwhelms the doll and the shoulders of the dress look awkward. I do love a doll with a hat, though.
So, for me, three items out of a 7 item collection is pretty good.
I hope the line continues to be popular and that we see more well-designed outfits.

Did you know that quite a few of Tiny Kitty's fashions will fit Silkstone dolls and several of the early Fashion Royalty fashions will fit her as well? There are many fashions out there from assorted manufacturers and doll lines that will fit. See if you can identify these.

Are We Waiting For A Sybarite Sale?

The third Sybarite in the current Monoglam collection went live today on Superdoll's site. She is called "Chiffon" and uses the Voltaire sculpt.

Description:
Voltaire clone: 0801, Default skintone!
THE CURRENT COLLECTION "MONOGLAM"
Eyes of burnt ginger, dusted in tangerine, lemon and warm chocolate eyeshadow. double liner to top lid in netalic silver, yellow and black. Lips of transparent coral.
Sporting a one piece yellow custom dyed guippure lace slash front dress with multi layer hemline and divinely delicious ribbon bows that peek a boo between the layers of the hem.
Hair of matching yellow in mohair, simply gathered in portions that hang free, frame her face and tie back. Wig is trimmed in silk ribbon bow and whispy centrepart fringe that add to the beautiful aura of summers nonchalant times.
Accessories consist: Custom print silver 'leather' bag, ribbon and grosgrain belt , AW tag earings and the daintiest, most delicious yellow stiletto courts ever to grace the Sybarites!
Includes dollstand and applied eyelashes.

 Price: £355.00 ($555.97 US)


The first two Monoglam dolls are still available. I've not seen this in a while - dolls not selling out. Are people waiting for a sale, hurting for funds or do they just not like the dolls enough to shell out the bucks? Perhaps the hats, which will be offered as a separate package of four, should have been included.
Meadow £384.00 ($601.38)
Velvet £377.00 ($590.57)
There is one more Monoglam doll coming. She is called Lawn and is dressed in green. Three more separate fashions are also expected. This will be interesting.
So far, the only purchase from this line I've made is the set of 5 pastel colored jeans. That offering sold out quickly.
Here is my new Syb repaint (Yian) trying to decide which ones to wear.  Poor girl. She hasn't been in my photo studio yet and doesn't even have a top to wear.

Everyone wants to see what the new body looks like.  Here are a few shots I took with my iPad in the kitchen a few minutes ago - unedited.
