Accessories Galore

I saw pics of these in early 2008 but never in stores. Thought they were foreign exclusives. Found them at Big Lots while looking for My Scenes. The quality sucks, they all had crooked eyes or missing paint. I'm really tired of spending more than 5 minutes picking out a single doll! I made a huge mess going through the pile.
The ones I picked had minor flaws but its ok, since I'm really after the clothes and shoes. Giving the dolls to my niece.

Ignore the cheerleaders.


Kira's hair looks good in person, these are just bad pics


You get fewer accessories this time. They were 3 or 4 shoes in previous releases

Barbie


Teresa


Summer

Top Model Hair Wear Teresa

I love dolls with long hair, but wanted to try something different. Something short, like the singer P!nk .
It was fun! Will do more dolls with different short hair styles.

Daria

A good friend gave me the heads of Marisa and Daria. I liked Marisa but Daria looks too masculine to me. I was going to turn Daria into a transsexual character :) As you see below, I canned that project.

I think this head mold was secretly inspired by Paris Hilton.


Does she still look like a man?

Barbie beats Bratz

I was with Barbie all the way, now I don't know how I feel.
I read that around February, any unsold bratz will be recalled. What fun is it if theres no competition?
MGA has done something that no other doll company ever did, they had an Asian male doll! I love them for that.

I don't collect bratz, however, I acquired some through barbie lots from ebay. I was gonna sell them but think I'll keep them now. I will try to get Kina, Jade and Eitan. Already getting Aubrey for christmas. Yes, they are all asian Bratz :)

Christina as Barbie

WHY? Thought Mattel was trying to save money. The barbie head mold they using now are not even 2 years old! I don't think Christina is all that pretty, I do like her in her dirty phase. Do kids like Christina? I think they like hannah montana more.

If Barbie has Christina face, I dont think it will do much to her frame, people will quickly forget. All the craze is about Britney. The Christina dolls didnt last, while Britney dolls went on for years. Remember the 2003 VMA where both Britney & Chris kissed Madonna, everyone were talking about Britney & Modonna, Christina kiss was ignored! Christina CAN sing, Britney.. not really, so why is Brit always on top? Chris can hide under a rock and no one would look her her, Brit cant go to her corner store without being attacked.

I'm happy B is getting a new face, it has to be better than the current one. Hopefully M could come up with a headmold nothing like the Hillary Duff doll.

Mariposa Collection

I wish these dolls were more like Barbies, like the 1st wave of Fairytopia. I would play with them more often.



I'm missing these two flutterpixies, if you have them, trade them in for a re-root :)

Dead or Alive Girls

I love this game, but not for the reason you may think =p
Since I gave up in repainting, I look for dolls who resemble the girls. I wish there were more Leas to pick at.
I don't like dolls with thick, broom-like bangs, well... just bangs in general, so I made mine to my liking

KASUMI - I used Fashion Fever Modern Trends Lea



HITOMI - Blair from 12 Dancing Princess is perfect for this half German/Japanese character




I want to make these girls next. Any suggestions on which doll to use?
