Integrity Toys 2024 convention - Stilettos Out day 1: Welcome Dinner

The Welcome Dinner takes place at the end of the first convention day and, of course, has some more dolly goodies for attendees. "Monegasque Society" Eugenia Perrin-Frost as Monica Frost, designed by Alain Tremblay, would have been the centerpiece doll, if the dolls were actually there. Instead people saw her photo as a pop-up cutout on tables. The secret mystery bonus "Build-an-Accessory" from the NU. Face Seven Style Lab that holds a clue to the convention's story line was revealed. Before the night ended, attendees found out about the next accessory set for Donna Drake's "Cryptic Cases" gift set designed by Alain Tremblay, and also discovered that "Eye Candy" Victoire Roux was their giveaway doll, designed by Chris Stoeckel. Let’s check them out.

Item # 91565

Monegasque Society

Eugenia Perrin-Frost® as Monica Frost™ Centerpiece Doll

The Fashion Royalty® Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 550

Head Sculpt: Eugenia

Body Type: FR 6.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Blush

Hair Color: Deep Red

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Designed By Alain Tremblay

This Eugenia is one of the most beautiful dolls of the convention. She reminds me a lot of another Eugenia convention doll, Bittersweet from 2013. And I have the same problem with this one that I had with Bittersweet: the lipstick that does not vibe with me at all. A more natural lip would have looked much better, and kept the style as is. In any case, she is a gorgeous doll. I love the dress (finally velvet!) and the shoes are magnificent with that decorative detail. The character she’s supposed to be is her mother or mother in law.

Item # 73067

Eye Candy

Victoire Roux® Giveaway Doll

The East 59th® Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Victoire 2.0/Della

Body Type: E59 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Japan

Hair Color: Platinum Blonde

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

I don’t know about you, but I definitely did not have Victoire as a showgirl in my bingo card for the convention! The doll herself is gorgeous, but the outfit is missing a material intrinsic to showgirl costumes everywhere: feathers, plumes! It looks almost half finished without them. Pity, as the doll is so beautiful. The impression is similar to the classic Bird Of Paradise Gene Marshall doll from 1997.

Item # 75033A

Cryptic Cases

Gift Set Accessory Set A

The NU. Fantasy™ Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Accessory pack designed to go into the Imogen Lennox as Donna Drake "Cryptic Cases" Welcome Doll Gift Set.

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Alain Tremblay

A very DVF wrap dress in tie-dye fabric, part of the welcome doll gift set. Imogen looks nice in it but it is nothing to write home about. The back and necklace stand out from her accessories as well as the evidence form.

The Mysterious Build-An-Accessory was revealed during dinner, pieces of which were scattered in the Style Lab boxes. As explained when this year's Style Lab was first announced, those who purchased the entire Style Lab collection received all the components to complete this special bonus mystery accessory. Once all of the "diamond-encrusted" components are collected, they look like a weird device, once assembled. What could this mean? The plot thickens!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Prototypes shown throughout this email, final products may vary. These collectibles are meant for adult collectors ages 15 and up only.

New East 59th collection: The Four Seasons!

A new East 59th Collection of four dolls was unveiled two days ago, designed of course by Chris Stoeckel. It is named The Four Seasons Collection and the concept is that each East 59th doll is doing a glamorous ad campaign for a top clothing company, having four looks representing the four seasons: Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. The doll screenings are all new, which is good, as they were beginning to be repetitive. Two dolls from the collection will be available via Integrity Toys' authorised dealers, but the "Summertime Outing" Evelyn Weaverton and "The Winds Of Winter" Victoire Roux dolls are IT Direct dolls and were only be available via a right-to-buy lottery for W Club members.

Item # 73064

Springtime Find

Constance Madssen® Dressed Doll

East 59th®: The Four Seasons Collection

Edition Size: 600

Expected Ship Date: August 2024

MSRP: $160 + S & H

AVAILABLE ONLY FROM IT DEALERS

Head Sculpt: Constance

Body Type: E59 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Blush

Hair Color: Sable Brown

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story:

There is nothing like a beautiful spring day for shopping spree, so for her ad campaign, Constance was given the directive of "Dash about town with piles of shopping bags, and just in case the weather turns, bring an umbrella for April showers!" Her ad inspired everyone to go out shopping in style and had her fans claiming that Spring is supreme! Is Spring your standout? - Designed by Chris Stoeckel

Included:

• Slim textured coat with print accent banding;

• Matching print sheath dress with large bow detail;

• Satin draped hat;

• "Gold" knot hoop earrings;

• Two "gold" knot bracelets;

• Blue and "gold" umbrella (does not open);

• Blue "leather" purse;

• Blue "leather" pumps;

• Two East 59th logo shopping bags;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of blue painted "gloved" hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Despite the new screening, this Constance reminds me a lot of the first one. After all, Chris says it is based on the first one for inspiration. I’m not in love with the print of the dress (and matching coat lining) but love the colour combination of blue and yellow. She has shopping bags as accessories, and an umbrella, which sadly is not functioning. Wonder how many more people would go for her if her umbrella could open.

W CLUB ONLY IT DIRECT RIGHT-TO-BUY LOTTERY

Head Sculpt: Evelyn

Body Type: E59 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Hungarian

Hair Color: Raven

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

MSRP: $170 + S & H

Special W Club Price: $160 + S & H

Sales method: This is being sold to W Club members via a W Club right-to-buy lottery offer. Should any product remain after fully placing the lottery, it would then be made available to the public and for purchasing extras at the MSRP.

The Story:

What better way to spend a warm summer day than having a picnic with someone special! For her ad campaign, Evelyn was off to the park, all dressed for the occasion, and well prepared with a picnic hamper, tumblers and plates, inspiring her fans to fashionably relax and say that Summer is superior! Is Summer your star? - Designed by Chris Stoeckel

Included:

• Textured stripe white duster coat with wide cuffs and patch pockets;

• Yellow gingham slim sheath dress with bow details;

• Chartreuse chiffon head scarf;

• "Gold" drop hoop earrings;

• Two "gold" bangle bracelets;

• White "leather" open toe sling back heels;

• "Wicker" purse;

• Two tumblers;

• Two plates;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of yellow painted "gloved" hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

 She’s the one I coveted from this collection. I like her look, both doll and outfit. But the real attraction is the picnic set in a wicker hamper, which is something we have not seen before at IT and looks amazing. The wicker matching purse is the cherry on top. The screening is a modified updated version of the first screening, with a more sultry look, per Chris. Gorgeous.

Item # 73062

Standout Fall

Della Roux™ Dressed Doll

East 59th®: The Four Seasons Collection

Edition Size: 600

Expected Ship Date: August 2024

MSRP: $160 + S & H

AVAILABLE ONLY FROM IT DEALERS

Head Sculpt: Della/Victoire 2.0

Body Type: E59 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Light Honey

Hair Color: Honey Blonde

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story:

Wearing the ultimate business outfit for the woman on the go, Della was the perfect model to show off this smart fall suit and coat ensemble. For her ad campaign, Della meant business on a crisp autumn day with her portfolio and sketches on hand, inspiring her fans to fall in love with Fall and insist that Fall is in first place! Is Fall your front-runner? - Designed by Chris Stoeckel

Included:

• Houndstooth car length coat with pink lining;

• Matching houndstooth scarf;

• Blue textured-stripe double-breasted skirt suit with pink jacket lining;

• Chic blue brimmed hat with floral detail;

• Pale pink "pearl" earrings and necklace;

• Blue "patent leather" handbag;

• Blue "patent leather" D'Orsay pumps;

• Black "patent leather" and lined artist portfolio that opens to hold the sketches;

• Five fashion sketches;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of pink painted "gloved" hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

First time with a forward eye screening for Della, yet she still looks a lot like before to me. I’m not crazy about her blonde hair/blue eyes combo, she always looks so much better in darker colouring. Just imagine her in a dark brown bubble cut with brown eyes. Her outfit is very chic, with that lovely hat and bag, and her design portfolio suits it just fine. Pity her jewellery is very basic.

Item # 73063

The Winds Of Winter

Victoire Roux® Dressed Doll

East 59th®: The Four Seasons Collection

Edition Size: 600

Expected Ship Date: August 2024

W CLUB ONLY IT DIRECT RIGHT-TO-BUY LOTTERY

Head Sculpt: Victoire 2.0/Della

Body Type: E59 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Hungarian

Hair Color: Auburn

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

MSRP: $170 + S & H

Special W Club Price: $160 + S & H

Sales method: This is being sold to W Club members via a W Club right-to-buy lottery offer. Should any product remain after fully placing the lottery, it would then be made available to the public and for purchasing extras at the MSRP.

The Story:

It's a chilly winter day, and what better time for a stroll to have cocktails with a special someone. For her ad campaign, she thought it would be even better to stroll in with her own adorable poodle Mimi and a gorgeous bouquet of roses. Her modeling choice left fans raving that Winter, Victoire (and Mimi!) are victorious! Is Winter your winner? - Designed by Chris Stoeckel

Included:

• Red and black brocade cocoon coat;

• Red and black brocade cocktail dress;

• "Gold" earrings with red "jewel" detail;

• "Gold" collar necklace with red "jewel" detail;

• Black brimmed hat;

• Black "patent leather" purse;

• Black "patent leather" D'Orsay pumps;

• Bunch of roses;

• Mimi dog with leash and collar;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Red "leather" long gloves;

• Alternate pair of red painted "gloved" hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Victoire is dressed for winter and has a dog as well! The fabric print looks great but I think she would look even better if it was in shades of emerald green to contrast her red hair. Would have also preferred some fur trim on the collar, hat and gloves (and she could come without the dog and flowers to offset the cost). Lovely jewellery and bag. The new screening has different eyebrows and looks a bit more sultry. The Winds of Winter is so Game Of Thrones!

Here is a video of the rotating dolls - enjoy!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Prototypes shown, the final product may vary. Background and props are not included. This collectible is meant for adult collectors ages 15 and up only.

Adornements is the new East 59th collection by Chris Stoeckel for Integrity Toys!

A new East 59th Collection was presented to W Club members, created of course by Integrity Toys' designer Chris Stoeckel. It is the Adornments Collection and the story-line says that Laird Drake's agency just signed a very lucrative deal with Adorn, one of New York City's most prestigious luxury jewellers, to launch a smashing ad campaign promoting some of their most elaborate jewellery. So you can expect lots of gems and glamour in the designs. Here is Chris talking about the collection:

Most of the dolls are available via Integrity Toys' authorized dealers, Constance Madssen is an IT Direct doll and was only be available via a right-to-buy lottery in the W Club.

Enchanting In Amethyst

Lady Aurelia Grey™ Dressed Doll

The East 59th® The Adornments Collection

Edition Size: 750

Expected Ship Date: September 2023

MSRP: $160 + S & H

AVAILABLE ONLY FROM IT DEALERS

Head Sculpt: Aurelia

Body Type: E59 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: FR Black

Hair Color: Brown

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story:

How lucky can a gal be? Even if it's just for a few fleeting moments, Lady Aurelia Grey is thrilled to have been offered the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to wear one of Adorn Jeweller's most intricate creations! In a moment sure to go down in fashion history, she's sure to be remembered as "the face" who wore one of the most intricate Amethyst jewellery sets ever created! Designed by Chris Stoeckel.

Included:

12-inch articulated doll with rooted hair, braided in an up-do, as well as hand-applied eyelashes;

Form-fitting knee-length brocade cocktail dress with contrasting jewel-tone bust line;

Short-sleeve faux fur jacket;

Jewel-tone faux-leather handbag with woven chain shoulder strap;

"Amethyst" encrusted bib necklace and matching earrings;

Statement pumps with "Amethyst" detail;

Pair of long-manicured hands;

Pair of alternate short-gloved hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

What a lovely lady! Aurelia looks amazing and the whole set exudes luxury and glam in the proper style of the era the story unfolds. It is great to see different colouring on the make up of these dolls - the purple tones compliment the outfit and the amethyst jewellery perfectly. I would have preferred a fabric stole instead of the fur bolero, bringing the whole set more towards an evening ensemble. Chris said she also references Purple Factor Adèle Makeda from 2003.

Item # 73052

Love Knot Of Gold

Victoire Roux™ Dressed Doll

The East 59th® The Adornments Collection

Edition Size: 750

Expected Ship Date: September 2023

MSRP: $160 + S & H

AVAILABLE ONLY FROM IT DEALERS

Head Sculpt: Victoire 2.0

Body Type: E59 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Color: Honey Blonde

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story:

The image of sophistication, Victoire Roux nailed the role of city chic in the latest ad campaign for New York's very own Adorn Jewellers! Dressed in a stylish creation by Chris Stoeckel, Victoire is the perfect model to showcase the "Love Knot Of Gold", one of the purest pieces of gold jewellery ever crafted by man!

Included:

12-inch articulated doll with short rooted hair, styled in a fabulous finger-wave look, as well as hand-applied eyelashes;

Sleeveless/backless form-fitting knee-length houndstooth cocktail dress;

Removable houndstooth shawl/cape;

Fabulous black head-wrap;

Black patent "leather" handbag;

Black patent "leather" pumps with cut-out sides;

Golden knotted cuff bracelet and golden earrings;

Pair of long-manicured hands;

Pair of alternate full-length gloved hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

The problem with most Victoire dolls is that they are gorgeous yet usually look alike so much that I do not get them, missing out on gorgeous outfits like this. The pattern looks more like gingham than houndstooth (as the description says). Love the headband. The bag looks like a Birkin (which was introduced in 1984), which is quite the anachronism, as a Kelly would be much more suitable and era appropriate. Guess Hermès stole the design from someone, right?

Dream In Aquamarine

Coralynn "Cora" Kwan™ Dressed Doll

The East 59th® The Adornments Collection

The Story:

Picture this: just like a dream, Coralynn "Cora" Kwan appears to us, dressed as the perfect, ultra-glamorous 1950's socialite, ready to host New York's elite at her posh penthouse, high above one of the city's most fashionable avenues! The most incredible thing about this story? The shining jewels our favourite lady got to wear to sell this fantasy for Adorn Jewellers!

Included:

12-inch articulated doll with slick short rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

Glamorous one-piece slack-and-bodice capri-length satin lounging suit;

Bust-length, kimono-inspired, ¾ sleeve brocade jacket;

Golden clutch purse;

Golden open-toe pumps;

Golden "aquamarine" encrusted cigarette holder accessory;

"Aquamarine" covered golden drop earrings;

Pair of long-manicured hands;

Alternate pair of grip hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

Coralynn looks gorgeous again in this lovely outfit, which would have looked even better if it had a hostess skirt over it, much like the first Constance had. Love the bejewelled cigarette holder. I ordered this one immediately.

Item # 73054

Right Time Of Night

Laird Drake® Fashion Figure

The East 59th® The Adornments Collection

Edition Size: 750

Expected Ship Date: September 2023

MSRP: $160 + S & H

AVAILABLE ONLY FROM IT DEALERS

Head Sculpt: Laird

Body Type: Homme 1.5

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Colour: Light Brown

The Story:

When he signed the deal with Adorn, Laird Drake did not hesitate to immediately reserve a spot on the cover of his favourite gentlemen's magazine for him to appear on in person, because, after all, save for maybe his beau, he knew that he was the only man in New York who could correctly model Adorn's line of ultra-masculine high-end timepieces! The company's lead designers did not even try to argue; there was no point fighting it, Laird Drake was just the most elegant man in the City!

Included:

12.75-inch articulated fashion figure with a combination of sleek rooted and flocked hair;

Perfectly tailored tuxedo ensemble, a complete with dinner jacket, trousers, shirt, cummerbund and bow tie;

Patent "leather" dress shoes;

White dress socks;

Removable boutonniere;

Golden watch;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity;

Laird looks like Leonardo di Caprio a lot in this new incarnation. Both hairstyle and face-paint are so much different than the first Laird released. He looks very glamorous in his white tie ensemble. The white socks are jarring on this - they are NEVER worn with anything for evening dress, much less a white tie suit. Chris said he wanted to have a break from the pants to the shows, to make the latter pop more but… He added that it is also a nod to Audrey wearing white socks with black loafers in Funny Face, which is something totally different of course. Also cummerbunds are usually left to black-tie dressing or musicians in swing bands when it comes to white tie, a waistcoat is the proper item. At least the pants look like they have two galon as is proper. When are we going to see a proper jacket with tails in these retro era gents? If he had one I would have snatched him in a second. His forehead is low for my taste. EDIT: the production dolls look like they have a much higher hairline than the prototype.

W CLUB ONLY IT DIRECT RIGHT-TO-BUY LOTTERY

Head Sculpt: Constance

Body Type: E59 1.0

Sales method: This is being sold to W Club members via a W Club right-to-buy lottery offer. Should any product remain after fully placing the lottery, it would then be made available to the public and for purchasing extras at the MSRP.

The Story:

Every major ad campaign needs a show-stopping "piece de resistance" and it is a well-known fact that picking just the right "face" can either make or break any perfectly orchestrated plan. With this in mind, Laird Drake had the genius to cast Constance Madssen as his leading cover girl. With the only diva in town who could rival in beauty with the vibrant blue of the most luxurious topaz ever set in gold at the helm, the East 59th Agency set the tone on how precious jewels should be advertised forever!

Included:

12-inch articulated doll with long rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

Show-stopping multi-layered couture gown, constructed in a jewel-tone brocade, with attached tulle underskirt and a flower ornament attached to the bust line;

Pair of matching brocade panties;

Maxi-length slim skirt, adorned with a bouquet of flowers at the waist (the bouquet is not detachable);

Statement necklace and earring set drenched in "blue topaz";

Black clutch purse;

Black pumps with "blue topaz" ornaments;

Pair of long-manicured hands;

Pair of alternate full-length gloved hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

Easily the best doll of the collection, Constance looks amazing here, reminding me a lot of Maria Callas. Appropriately enough, this year is the 100th anniversary from her birth. She also reminds me of a Latina superstar, María Félix, which just had a doll released by Mattel. The gown is spectacular and I love the vinyl gloves, even though the material should have been different to match the era. She has the best jewellery of all the dolls and I think a small, crown-like hair ornament would have completed the ensemble. Even her shoes are bejewelled. Happy to say I won her at the lottery!

You can see the dolls in the video below:

Stay Tuned Day 1: Integrity Toys online 2022 event begins!

It was announced earlier this year, that Integrity Toys would forgo even an online convention for 2022, doing instead a series of doll reveals via email during a week in November. The event was open to all W Club members, the theme was TV shows (hence the name Stay Tuned) and the dolls would be either sold via lottery or made to order. This past week, all W Club members were receiving three emails daily: the first, early on each day, gave a hint of what was to come by showing a retro TV display and also giving out a $100 IT gift card to those participating, the second one had a video clip made to look like a tv ad for the show that was the inspiration, showing the doll/dolls and featuring a voiceover by Alain Tremblay (usually hilarious) and the third was the actual reveal mail.

How did it go overall? Hmmm, not quite as expected. It did not even have the charm and fun of the annual Dolly Days online event that IT does usually before (and the latest was after) the holidays. Which is strange, considering that IT has done it before many times. The combination of big expectations from club members (especially now that everyone could participate) combined with a lacklustre offering from Integrity, resulted in a mixed bag. Let’s check out each day’s dolls in separate posts and see what was all about.

The first day was dedicated to East 59th - two dolls inspired by the 80s prime time soap opera Dynasty. Integrity Toys' take was named "Legacy", and it starred Victoire and her sister Della Roux playing alternate versions of Alexis Carrington-Colby and Dominique Deveraux, designed by the one and only Chris Stoeckel. The TV clip and the company’s blurb for the show are below.

In a classic episode titled "Burnt Champagne", be ready for a shocking display of disgraceful behaviour amongst the rich and famous! These bitter foes are ready to brawl over their love for the finer things in life and of course, settle the score over a man, as they come to blows to decide who will marry Blaine Wellington, the richest oil tycoon in America! Who will get the house and who will get little else but a first-class ticket out of Dodge? These two have the most peculiar way of sorting things out!

The Story:

Meet Della Roux in the role of Monique Verreault, the sophisticated heiress of one of the richest American families, returning home after a long European vacation, only to discover that her arch-rival, outrageous millionaire entrepreneur and socialite, Lexie Corrie, has been busy seducing her man, oil baron Blaine Wellington during her absence!

Watch as the heat is about to turn up as these ladies are ready to fight for their right to be with the love of their lives in LEGACY!

Included:

• 12-inch articulated doll with rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

• Extravagant evening dress featuring a floor-length white satin skirt with a golden micro-sequined deep V-neckline halter top;

• Matching long-sleeved satin collarless evening blazer with golden micro-sequinned trim;

• Oversized earrings with faux-diamond "stone" accents;

• Oversized cuff bracelet with faux-diamond "stone" accents;

• Dramatic floor-length faux-ermine wrap;

• Pair of golden sling-back heels;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of "grip" hands;

• "Stay Tuned" doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Another Della that has the same face as all her previous versions. It is a bit anticlimactic to have a favourite character looking the same in every one of the versions available - even Poppy Parker has more variety in her make up and she has had some of her face painting plates lost forever! Even worse, she looks a lot like the Pink Champagne Aurelia Grey doll from 2019 - the hairstyle and the fabrics used. Which, together with the price and timing (the lottery dolls are ready to ship after the results are announced) lead me to say no. The price of the doll is $165 for club members, five bucks more than their January release dolls - but the previous ones had more elaborate outfits and more accessories too. Bummer. Just for the record, the IT doll that is the very incarnation of Dominique Deveraux for me will always be Main Attitude Adèle Makéda - she’s the high mark all others have to compete against.

The Story:

Cast against her real-life half-sister, Della Roux, in LEGACY, a dramatic series about the sordid life of the rich and famous, we introduce Victoire Roux in the role of Lexie Corrie, a desperate attention-seeking millionaire entrepreneur and socialite, who currently has her heart set on her rival's beau, oil baron Blaine Wellington!

Fans will all agree that these are the roles of a lifetime for the Roux sisters, and sparks are sure to erupt on and off the set!

Included:

• 12-inch articulated doll with rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

• Glamorous, 80's inspired couture sequined gown, with a dramatic red satin bouffant sleeve;

• Oversized earrings with faux-ruby "stone" accents;

• Oversized cuff bracelet with faux-ruby "stone" accents;

• Dramatic floor-length faux-mink wrap;

• Pair of shiny blood-red sling-back pumps;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of "grip" hands;

• "Stay Tuned" doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Victoire looks quite different here from her normal style. Beautiful and elegant, without the touch of over the top exuberance that typified Alexis Carrington-Colby (as played by the inimitable Joan Collins) in the 80s. She looks too much of a proper lady, if you get my point. We have seen her in red sequins before, in a different style. The bubble cut looks a bit weird, not quite there for Alexis, more like something my mother would have worn back then (or even my grandmother). And again, the complete look does not feel quite enough for the asking price. The screening is the one used on Late Night Dream, with more intense colouring.

New East 59th Basic dolls are announced!

Integrity Toys had announced that they would gradually change the basic dolls in all lines earlier this year. The first new one have been unveiled and they are from the East 59th line, designed by Chris Stoeckel. A new Victoire Roux and the first basic guy, Augustus "Gus" Blake, are the new additions to the basic doll releases. Integrity Toys is tweaking the process slightly. For W Club members, they are taking a pre-order for the new entries in the East 59th collection and members may order 1 per membership at special W Club pricing. That means at least one guaranteed doll per member, which is great! No more hassle and anxiety. It makes more sense for me to have members pre-order and have dolls made to order, just like with regular club dolls. Easier for the company and the buyers! The company also mentioned that “While the initial idea behind these dolls is to manufacture them "Open Edition" style (which means that more will be produced once they sell out), Integrity Toys reserves the right to "retire" these designs based on their overall popularity level at any point. Once that happens, it means that they won't be produced again.” 

Non members will be able to order the dolls once they come in stock. Depending on the edition size of the initial pre-order, it is possible that orders may have to be shipped in waves (meaning, that even though you pre-order now, you may not be in the first batch of dolls that arrive and may have to wait for a second or third batch to be produced). We will know after May 20th if multiple shipping waves are necessary.

I was not expecting another Victoire as a basic doll for East 59th but here she is, in all her blonde bombshell glory. I suppose they wanted to add a blonde one, after the redhead and raven versions. This one has a better swimsuit, two piece instead of a single one, and it is in a lovely polka dot fabric. Typical accessories, lovely face. The club discount price is the basics price of last year, the public will be getting them $10.00 more.

I love that we are getting a Darius/Gus as a basic doll, he’s one of my favourite guys and cannot have enough of him. Nubian skin tone too! I love his swimming trunks (can we have a real life pair like this to buy too?) and he’ll look gorgeous next to Laird in his striped shirt. I’m definitely getting this one! I’m not so sure about the pleather espadrilles though.
