Holiday Dreaming with Young Marley

This is a photo that I did for FDQ's recent Holiday issue. Young Marley is day dreaming on a gorgeous Bashette bed wearing a OOAK nightie also by Bashette.

An image I did recently for FDQ of Kingdom Doll, Eira. She's dressed in a Tonner gown


Here she appears in a OOAK gown and wig by Cholo.


I love her in white.

Tonner Doll 2015 Holiday Collection

Tonner released their Holiday 2015 Collection with De De Denton and several other dolls. De De is a new character whose back story is that she is an heiress to the Denton chewing gum fortune with her own reality show. She's related to Deeanna Denton and big-boned women run in the family. They need to switch to sugarless gum.

She's been given the 17" Athletic body and from here, she's got a lot of eye makeup, too.
Above from left to right, the first two are outfits only and are priced at $89.99 each. The rest are dressed dolls priced at $174.99-$179.99 except for the last one that is $184.99.


Made in the shade is a dressed doll retailing at $159.99.  What is the CW-1 head sculpt?

Two new "Basic Dixies" in the Rockabilly collection sport bangs that are a big fail. Wigs work better for hairdos with bangs.  $99.99 each


 Bombshell Batwoman makes an appearance in the DC Stars line. She has a beautiful sculpt and her hair color is stunning but the costume is odd.  $179.99


Collectors flipped out over the Wilde Imagination chaise from a recent convention and now we are offered the same chaise in three different fabrics and "wood" finishes.  $124.99. The Ellowyne chaise is a very good size for all 16" dolls.

 Op Ed:
I must say that I am not a fan of Tonner's new website at all. There is too much automation (zooming,  fading and highlighting) for my taste. The archive is disorganized. One used to be able to search by year and category.  The pictures are too large initially and one has to keep going to the next page and the next page and on and on.
It's a sophisticated website but it's not very collector friendly.

Superdoll Collectables' Black Friday Event

I don't know what time they put up their sales items but I know we were on the New Jersey Turnpike when I ordered what I wanted. No, I was not the driver.

Nothing can stop a doll collector - neither a moving car nor sun in her eyes!

Back to reality, in addition to giving 50% off on all items which have languished on their site for a year or more, three new adorable 50's style dress sets debuted at reasonable prices.
I wanted all three so I decided to get none of them. How's that for a reasonable decision?


A new style of shoe is offered with each of the above:




As of right now, they are all still there.
