First W Club doll for 2018 is unveiled - and it’s twins!

The W Club year officially begun in March for 2018, so everything has been coming out later than usual. That includes the W Club dolls, exclusively made for its members, a total of five for the year. The first one was teased a few days ago to members, then was revealed to be the Nu Face twins, Lilith and Eden. They are designed, like the main Nu Face line, by Jessy Ayala, with a press/newsprint theme. I’m not that crazy about them. The fashions look half done and the doll’s are ok but don’t scream “buy me” to me. They are quite different in style both to the Nu Face main line and the upgrade Rayna, which is weird but not really a problem. Don’t ask dealers, these are W Club exclusives, so if you’re not a member, wait till they start arriving early next year to get them on the secondary market. They are not a giftset but sold individually, so any member can buy either one or both twins. At $135.00 per doll, that’s $270 for both, quite a jump from the $200.00 that last year’s twin set (see what I did there?), which was more elaborate, cost.

Lilith is easily the better of the twins, with her dark hair, pale skin and red lips. If her eye make up was more interesting, I might have caved in. I already have Rock Wedding Lilith and Smoke And Mirrors Lilith, so this one barely compares.

I have a blonde Eden, Elements Of Surprise, so I’m not in a hurry to get another one. The freckles are too cutesy for my liking and her outfit looks like Barbie turned goth. I love the t-shirt though.

IFDC 2013: Integrity convention dolls



The International Fashion Doll Convention (IFDC), one of the major doll shows in the calendar is held annually, organised by Jim Faraone and this year's theme was Horror High Vegas! So one can imagine the Goth feast it was. Integrity Toys once again designed and produced the convention doll, the souvenir doll and also had another doll for sale there. The first two dolls were unveiled on the last night of the convention in Las Vegas on July 6th. All dolls fall under the Nu Fantasy category. Let's check them out.

Item #91320
Glam Vamp Horror High Vegas!!!
2013 IFDC Exclusive Convention Doll
Suggested Retail Price: $175.00 US
Limited Edition of 300 Dolls Estimated
Ship Date: Last week of July 2013


Collection: Nu.Fantasy™
Head Sculpt: Anja™
Body Type: Fashion Royalty®
Quick Switch Feature: No
Skin Tone: FR White
Hair Colour: Raven
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied
Total Packaged Dimensions: Approximately 9.5" X 15" X 3.25"


Glam Vamp is this year's IFDC official convention doll. She has deep raven fully rooted  hair, ruby red lips and hand applied eyelashes. Her long, ultra fitted black gown has dark glittery stones on the bodice and a side slit.  Glam Vamp completes her look with a set of luxurious jewels, black fishnet hosiery and a pair of unique "bat wing" open-toe pumps! A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 14 and up only.


Anja looks really sultry and vampy here. She reminds me a lot of the first "new" version of Vero with raven hair, which is the basic reason I am not trying to get this one. I love the dress and accessories but not enough to want to get her. Best feature about her is the eye make up and the shoes. For this price I would have expected a more elaborate outfit plus better earrings and perhaps a ring as well.


Item #91322
Blood Lines Horror High Vegas!!!
2013 IFDC Exclusive Companion Doll
Suggested Retail Price: $150.00 US
Limited Edition of 300 Dolls


Collection: Nu.Fantasy™
Head Sculpt: Tatiana™ (V 1.0)
Body Type: Fashion Royalty®
Quick Switch Feature: No
Skin Tone: Japan
Hair Colour: Jet Black with White Streaks
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied
Total Packaged Dimensions: Approximately 9.5" X 15" X 3.25"


Blood Lines is a 12-inch articulated vinyl doll with fully rooted jet-black hair with contrasting white streaks and hand-applied eyelashes. She is wearing an ultra-form fitted gown with black vertical ruffles, accessorized with an extravagant twisted snake necklace and matching stud earrings. She has white pumps with black lace overlay. A doll is stand included. For adult collectors ages 14 and up only.


This one is easily the best of the bunch, and the one I am trying to get. The necklace is a bit much but it fits the theme perfectly. She is perfection throughout.


Item #91321
Dark Fable Horror High Vegas!!!
2013 IFDC IT DIRECT Exclusive Doll
Suggested Retail Price: $150.00 US
Limited Edition of 300 Dolls


Collection: Nu.Fantasy™
Head Sculpt: Imogen™
Body Type: Fashion Royalty®
Quick Switch Feature: No
Skin Tone: FR White
Hair Colour: Duo-Toned Black and Red
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied
Total Packaged Dimensions: Approximately 9.5" X 15" X 3.25"


Dark Fable is a 12-inch articulated vinyl doll with full rooted, intricately styled duo-toned hair and hand-applied eyelashes. She is dressed in a two-piece ensemble that consists of a lace overlay top with bell bottom sleeves over a black mermaid-style skirt with lots of rows of ruffles. Her accessories include a brooch, heart-shaped ring, stud earrings and black closed-toe pumps, with a blood splatter print. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 14 and up only.


This is the most Goth-like of the three and the one I liked least. The Imogen sculpt looks gorgeous as usual and I love her screening but the hair and the outfit are not my cup of tea. The brooch and ring are stand outs. The shoes look like they came out of Cruella De Vil's closet.
