The final two of four dolls in the Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration were revealed to club members on the 3rd of April. They are designed by Marina Zrnić, who has established her Cold Carbon OOAK doll brand and is very popular with collectors. She has a very distinct style, incorporating goth, steampunk and cyberpunk elements. Early this year we had the first two dolls in this collaboration revealed, and they are arriving just now to the lucky winners of that lottery. Just so you know, Marina announced that she will stop making dolls after this year, to focus on her other work. Both dolls are again lottery opportunities for W Club members for the right to buy. If there are any left, they will then be offered to the general public.

The Story:
In the third of four sensational dolls created for Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration, you are invited to be part of the story and enter the chilling, haunting world of vampire hunters!
In the dimly lit streets of the village, the dapper figure of Tenzin Dahkling glided with effortless grace, his cane tapping rhythmically against the cobblestones. With a debonair charm and keen intellect, he was not your typical vampire hunter. Clad in tailored suits and polished boots, Tenzin exuded an air of sophistication as he tracked down the creatures of the night. His cane, more than a mere accessory, was poised to strike at any undead foe. With each encounter, Tenzin Dahkling proved that style and substance were the perfect weapons against the darkness that lurked in the dimly lit shadows cast by the blood moon.

Is it weird that the male doll is again the best of the two in this second Cold Carbon release? Or is it just me? I usually like the ladies more in Marina’s personal OOAK releases, but in this collaboration it has been the exact opposite. I love Tenzin, have two of his three iterations so far, so I’m entering the lottery for this guy and cross fingers. He’s exceptional. Hair, face, clothes, accessories, all combine into something really beautiful and well thought of. I just wish the hat’s crown was a bit wider to sit better on the head. I thought he was a vampire at first look, the whole style reminds me of Coppola’s Dracula gone West. Those glasses! I hope they stay properly on the face and not slide off. He should have had better socks though, they look like sport socks lol.

The Story:
The hunt continues to rid the world of a dark plague that is creating fear in the hearts of all humanity! For the fourth and final sensational doll created for this Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration, the tables turn around and the chase will start yielding results... Vampires beware, the hunters are drawing near!
Kesenia Valentinova was more than just a fashionable socialite—she was a relentless hunter of the undead, reveling in the drama her chosen path brought her. With a vial of blood elegantly displayed around her neck, she lured vampires with the promise of their most coveted prize. Adorned in the finest fabrics, carrying an innocent looking umbrella that doubles as her weapon of preference, Kesenia danced around her fellow vampire hunters, her every move a carefully orchestrated hunt. For her, the thrill of the chase was as intoxicating as the finest champagne, and she embraced it with flair, proving that even amidst the glitz and glamour, the shadows held secrets waiting to be unveiled.
Included:
12.5-inch articulated doll with rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;
Feminine gothic look comprised of a black lace and satin bustier cami and black satin skinny cropped pants with pleat and front-slit detailing;
Vintage-inspired velvet floral print robe coat with "fur" collar and pockets;
Removable black belt;
Metal tipped black high-heeled ankle boots;
Functional black umbrella;
Red headband;
Three interchangeable chin piercings including a "silver" stud, a spider and drop piercing;
Black sunglasses;
Necklace with "blood-filled" pendant (for attracting vampires!);
Hoop earrings with removable crosses;
Pair of black and red manicured hands;
Alternate pair of "grip" hands;
Doll stand;
Story card;
Certificate of authenticity.
First thing that struck me upon seeing this one is the chin piercing. Apparently it is called labret. We have had dolls with piercings before but not on this spot. But the weird think is the size of the piercing jewellery, not the spot it is on. It looks like she has a goatee or something with that spider hanging there. Other than that, the doll is beautiful and reminds me a lot of a couple of the first Kesenias, Porcelain Beauty and Follow The Line. I generally do not like fringe on my dolls so I’d pass this anyway and I also have Porcelain Beauty, who looks a lot like her. I love her coat and accessories, and luckily I have a similar umbrella from the American Horror Story: Coven Fiona Goode doll. Remember that the Kesenia sculpt was the one used originally for the Ashton Drake Brides of Dracula dolls.
One final note: I keep seeing comments everywhere about how the IT X Cold Carbon dolls are watered down versions of Marina’s OOAK dolls. Well, you’d have to pay $990 to get that level of detail and customising, not $175. Below is a video showing the dolls rotating.
