New Close Up dolls from Integrity Toys: La Bella Figura basic doll collection

La Bella Figura literally means the beautiful figure in italian. But it is also the phrase meaning making a great/good impression. It is about dressing well and looking properly groomed and made up, both for men and women in Italy. Even if it is only for groceries shopping in the neighborhood. And Integrity Toys uses it as the title of their latest capsule collection of Close-ups™ dolls, designed by Alain Tremblay, inspired by the supermodels of the 90s and Dolce & Gabbana 90s collections. These three dolls are literally the embodiment of the supermodel trinity of the 90s: Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista and Naomi Campbell. In other words, Natalia Fatalé, Eugenia Perrin-Frost and Adele Makeda. The pricing is the same as with previous Basic doll editions, which is good.

Amorina Natalia Fatale Doll

The Story:

Natalia Fatalé had been scheming ways to make her comeback. She had made up with Kyori Sato a while back, figuring that they were better together than apart. Then, she set her sights on the Perrins. She knew getting back into the spotlight would be easier with a collaboration, particularly with an empire known for quality, as her reputation was one of… how shall we say… cutting a few corners. Kyori had suggested that they go after the next gen Perrins, Anais and Aymeline, but that didn’t quite pan out. So, Natalia and Kyori followed Vanessa to Barcelona. They heard she was having a meeting with the Henri 7 property, and figured they could pitch her on a collaboration while she was away from her more calculating sister. Fortuitously, they ran into Francisco Leon poolside. Francisco was always looking for a way to cut in on a deal. He convinced Natalia and Kyori he could land them with the Perrins, for a small fee, of course. The next morning, as Vanessa Perrin let the door to her hotel suite close behind Francisco… oops... she wondered how she would broach the proposed collaboration between W Cosmetics and their previous foes to her sister. Francisco had done his part. Now the collaboration was in the hands of Vanessa…if she could convince Véronique. While Véronique was not fond of the idea, the “enemy of my enemy is my friend” mantra stuck in her head—exactly how Francisco had told Vanessa to pitch it. Véronique knew she would be damned if she did and damned if she didn’t collaborate with Natalia, but she considered Agnes, now with the backing of billionaire Alexandre Beaumont-Durand, a bigger threat. So, she agreed to a collaborative shoot in Italy for Natalia’s new Bella Figura line of accessories. The idea was that if they were successful, maybe they could do a cross-over with W Cosmetics. Maybe. Natalia didn’t care. By the time she arrived in Rome, Italy for the shoot with Adèle and Eugenia, Natalia felt like she was on a path with destiny. Not to mention the attractive young Italian man who lit her cigarette… and then gave her the matchbook with his phone number.

Amorina Natalia Fatale Doll

First of all, let me say I love this collection. It is getting vibes from many favourite things of mine, like the supermodels (Natalia as Christy), the Supermodel convention dolls and the early Fashion Royalty stuff. Natalia’s face is definitely channeling a mix of Cosmetic Takeover and Shapeshifter. She’s in FR Black, which has been done once before but with Natalia 1.5 sculpt for the ITBE line. The clothes are very Dolce & Gabbana 90s, good for the era but after that China debacle, I have removed the design duo from my life. Their early 90s looks got away from the Sicilian widow style that made them stand out in the late 80s excess and glam, and moved on to a va-va-voom sexy look with lots of embroidered multi colored crystals, underwear as clothes and that is what we see here. The video probably contains most of the inspirations for all three outfits. She’s coming home. Amorina means little love in Italian, a term of endearment. And what’s with the cigarette? You do not see that in the streets of Italy at all.

BTW, if you want the Vespa, it is the New-Ray Vespa 1":6 metal model. Google it to find a seller. I have it, it is officially licensed by Piaggio (the famous Italian makers of Vespa) and works great with all 1:6 dolls.

Baci Adèle Makéda Doll

The Story:

Being in Rome was intoxicating. The food, the history, the gorgeous architecture… the gorgeous men. Adèle was thrilled to have Eugenia on the photoshoot with her and didn’t even mind Natalia that much—not that she trusted her. But since she enabled a trip to this gorgeous city, Natalia was ok in Adèle’s book… for now. She decided to walk to set to take in the sights and smiled as the sun shone off of the Trevi Fountain. But what most caught her eye, or perhaps more accurately caught her, was the dazzling tanned young man with blue eyes and dark chestnut hair following her down the street. “Ciao Bella,” he said with a twinkle in his eye, as he handed her a beautiful yellow rose. Adèle was distracted by his chiseled face—and his chiseled abdominals—that put any of the marble statues around Rome to shame. She stopped to chit chat and then told him she needed to head to her shoot. “Ah, you are a model, of course!” the young man said. Adèle began to blush and he pressed something small into her hands. “Call me, we will have dinner together,” he said, kissing her on each of her cheeks and then heading back up the street. By the time Adèle joined Eugenia and Natalia, she was on Cloud 9.

Adele is following the same stylistic guidelines as Natalia. I love all of her sculpts but this one looks a lot like the 3.0 doll from the Faces Of Adele gift set, so I am going to pass. If she was 1.0 or 2.0 I would order her without a second thought. She reminds me a bit of Michaela Jaé Rodriguez in Pose. Alain said one of his inspirations was Jody Watley. I love that she has dark eyes. The rose looks so out of place - it resembles the fake fabric roses used to decorate the Greek wedding bombonieres (guest give-away gifts) of old. Her shrug reminded me of this Dolce & Gabbana look. Baci means kisses in Italian.

Dolce Eugenia Perrin-Frost Doll
Dolce Eugenia Perrin-Frost Doll

The Story:

Eugenia was thrilled to have Adèle show up to set. Natalia was not her favorite person, and despite the new alliance of convenience as a united front against the AvW empire, she was very careful about what she said aloud. She didn’t think this collaboration was going to last too long, but she tried to play nice. But playing nice was exhausting. Fortunately, Adèle’s entrance with a long-stemmed yellow rose allowed a shift in the conversation. “What’s with the flower?” Eugenia asked coyly. Adèle recounted her chance meeting with a beautiful Italian suitor. “Well, yellow is the color of friendship,” Natalia said, shrugging her shoulders while dragging on her cigarette. “It also symbolizes new beginnings,” Adèle retorted. The honeymoon was short. Natalia was quickly getting on her nerves. Eugenia just watched the two go back and forth, with a playful smirk on her face. Finally, Adèle turned to her friend. “What do you think it means?” she asked Eugenia. “Well, it’s lovely, but maybe not as lovely as the man who gave me his number earlier…” Eugenia said with a smile, producing a matchbook, flipping it over and flashing the scrawled phone number and name inside.“That’s strange,” Natalia said. “A handsome man gave me his phone number on a matchbook too!” Adèle reached for the item her beau had pressed into her hand. She flipped it over. “What's his name?” she inquired, brow furled. Eugenia and Natalia said in unison, “Marcello.” They turned and looked at each other and then at Adèle. She looked at the name scrawled in her matchbook and nodded in confirmation. “Marcello.” Eugenia threw the matchbook over her shoulder, chuckling. Adèle gave the rose to a young girl passing by the set with her mother. Natalia continued to drag on her cigarette. “Well, I guess we will have to seek the good life in another way.” Natalia wasn’t bothered. Handsome men come and go. She had plans for something bigger…

Dolce Eugenia Perrin-Frost Doll

The best of the bunch is Eugenia Perrin Frost, channeling Linda Evangelista, just like she did back in the Supermodel convention (but then she had red hair and was wearing Versace). The hair looks a lot like that hairstyle, only fluffier. She has the best outfit (again from the aforementioned duo, as if her being named Dolce - sweet - did not already tell you) of the three by far. She’s coming home too.

The first W Club doll of 2026 is Bubble Pop Erin Salston - or is it Poppy Parker?

August brings the very first W Club Exclusive offering of the 2026 membership year. Opening the email, I was certain we were getting one of the two Poppy Parker W Exclusive dolls we get every year but no - it is Erin Salston cosplaying Poppy! IT designer Jessy Ayala said he’s bringing out the sweeter side of Erin Salston with the "Bubble Pop" mini gift set, the first of the five exclusive membership dolls. It seems the schedule has returned to “normal” - may I remind you that last year we got the first club doll in November?

Bubble_Pop_Erin_Salston_doll

The Story:

Erin Salston remained one of the most popular celebrities on social media, known and followed more for her antics and lifestyle than any specific talent. Erin herself had been on a media break after a string of issues—a public “tantrum” during an interview, trashing a 5-star hotel suite after a night of hard partying and even being falsely accused of being part of a high-end “bling ring” jewel heist (from which she was eventually cleared, thanks to her father’s high priced attorneys). Erin was advised, after all of this, to take a little break from the public, of which she begrudgingly obliged. But still, the tales of Erin’s history, false sightings and romance rumors, historical fashion lookbacks and more kept her in the media. It was suggested by the NU. Face agency that perhaps for her coming back into the media’s eye, Erin might benefit from a bit of a makeover to her image. Maybe something sweeter and softer to announce “I’m back” in a way that seemed a bit less…chaotic. At least for now… Nadja, being Erin’s best friend and confidante, decided she would take the lead on the launch of Erin back into the public eye. Nadja had been killing it with corporate sponsorships since her partnership with the Japanese company behind the Big Love Bear bag charms had been such a huge and lucrative success. Erin didn’t care about the money (her family had more than she could ever spend, no matter how hard she tried), but Nadja did. So, Nadja brokered a deal for Erin to be seen in her debut with an exclusive, ultra-limited edition set of sorbet-colored charms. Nadja selected the perfect matching set to go with this luscious color palette, including fashion-forward pedal pushers, with adorable bow ties at the leg. “You are a genius!” Erin told her friend, who decided that a new platinum ‘do would help complete the new, softer look. Nadja then went to another recent corporation, a maker of bubbly drinks and boba tea, to arrange having Erin “papped” coming out of the tea store holding a drink. Nadja secured the perfect bubble skirt for Erin to wear, tying into the bubbly beverage in the most couture way possible. The paparazzi and the internet ate it up. “Sorbet summer” the vibe was named in Erin’s honor, with the sumptuous colors and textures being set as the “IT” look for the season. Nadja was pleased with herself and thought perhaps Erin would be turning over a new leaf with a new outlook. “How’s the boba tea?” Nadja whispered in her friend’s ear as they emerged to a throng of screaming fans asking for selfies and autographs. “Delicious. I spiked it with some vodka…I had a few mini bottles in my purse,” Erin whispered back, taking a long sip on the spiked tea and then turning back to smile and take some selfies with fans. Nadja shook her head…some things never change…

Bubble_Pop_Erin_Salston_doll

She’s a beautiful girl, Erin Salston - and she is a popular face for Integrity Toys. But having her cosplay Poppy Parker (the most commercial of IT’s lines) is disingenuous. First of all it alienates fans of both Poppy and Erin. Secondly it sends the wrong message and look outwards: mixing up lines, even without literally saying so, looks desperate and messy. I want my Poppy Parker dolls to look like Poppy Parker dolls and my NU Face dolls to look like NU Face dolls. It might have passed had this been Tulabelle paying homage to her grandmother, but not this. Also naming it as a gift set because it has an added pair of pants and plastic shoes plus two paper bags does not cut it. It needed at least a jacket - for example the one shown on the runway where that skirt comes from: the Chloe Spring Summer 2025 collection (where last year’s 1st club doll, Eden, came from). The studded shoes are from their Fall 2024 collection (where Rayna came from), while the pants are a bit older - Coperni Fall 2022.

Bubble_Pop_Erin_Salston_doll and accessories

I am not getting this doll, despite the new screening looking nice (but with her eyes looking a bit tiny). Some people say she fits the upgrade Nadja but to me they do not match at all. They look like coming from two different time lines. And can we stop with the lafoufous already? They are history by now. Done and dusted. Below is the video of the rotating doll.

The Eternal Night of Capri Fashion Set on Aurora Preston doll GMColl

The outfit of the collection is a very Versace inspired look, with the straps and golden accents and cut outs reminiscent of the brand’s 90’s bondage collection. This will look gorgeous on any doll and I like that by removing the skirt you get a swimsuit that also comes with a bath robe. I wish they stopped using filters on their photos - it makes them kind of blurry, which is not what one wants when looking for the details of a product for sale. Also, anyone who already has a GMColl body, please let us know about the marks that appear near the elbow joint on both upper arms and lower arms. They look like the breakout spots of 3d printing supports and appear on all dolls shown in the collection. I already placed my order for this.

Second appearance of Lucia, who was again a lottery a while ago in her debut as a brunette. Now she’s gone blonde and wearing a variation of the MTO outfit we saw before. If I had not won (and paid already!) the first Lucia, I would probably enter for this one.

Rosie Escaped Azealia Akech doll GMColl

Azealia is one of the two older sculpts from GMColl that I always wanted to get and now is a good opportunity - she’s breathtaking! Her dress is shorter than the one worn by Lucia, hence the slightly cheaper price. The design with the patch pockets is interesting when with the skirt, but it looks weird as a swimsuit. It seems like all dolls have the same bad in different colours, not a very creative choice. The bathrobe is matching the outfit colour here. Fingers crossed!

*** Lavande Serenade Allegra Orsini is $10 cheaper than Azelia and Lucia in this collection since she has a one piece swimsuit instead of two. Since the fashion was cheaper to make, we decided to reflect that difference to you collectors.

Included: COA, Doll Stand

Estimated Shipping Time: Mid-Late September

Lavande Serenade Allegra Orsini doll GMColl

Allegra Orsini is the other old sculpt from GMColl that I always wanted to add to my collection, but the prices on the secondary market are too high. So again, here’s a great opportunity to add her, if I win at the lottery. She is wearing a one piece swimsuit under her skirt. Her screening is new and looks amazing on her. She has a matching bathrobe to her outfit, like Azealia, which is great.

"A Brief Encounter" marks the return of the long missing Francesco Leon!

W Club members were pleasantly surprised by the long-awaited return of Francisco Leon! The FR Homme character, one of the first two male dolls issued by Integrity Toys back in 2006, made his come-back in a look very much reminiscent of his first iteration, Hypnotic. The original release was a close up doll, as the basic editions were named back then. He had flocked hair, a sleeveless t-shirt, briefs, a cross pendant (mine arrived back then with the pendant missing and, when newbie FR collector me contacted Patient Care, a very kind and helpful Alain Trembley offered to send me his own!), a towel, a shaving razor, a shaving brush, a toothbrush and flip flops. He was accompanied back then by his paramour, Pierre, the other male character that marked the beginning of FR Homme dolls. And you know what? This year marks the 20th anniversary of that release - it has been twenty years of FR Homme and Integrity failed to mark the occasion. Keep on reading for more about the new Francisco release and the original collection that started it all.

The Story:

Vanessa was nicely situated in her cabana at Henri 7’s new resort property on the outskirts of Barcelona. While her sister liked mostly to work, Vanessa liked to balance her work with a healthy dose of play, and so she took an extra few days to play before her meetings with management about the contemplated W Cosmetics spa partnership. As she lounged, she scoured the pool area, looking at the beautiful women and men with their hard bodies glistening in the sun. She spotted a toned guy in a freshly manscaped beard across the pool, sporting what almost looked like underwear. The smile on her face from all that beauty slowly turned into a scowl. “Merde,” Vanessa muttered under her breath. “That couldn’t possibly be… of course it is. That man is always parading around in his undergarments!” It was Spanish playboy Francisco Leon. Francisco had come from an upper-class Spanish family, but they weren’t in the uber-elite echelon. So, Francisco tried to climb his way up to the top tier of social status the easiest way possible—by “aligning” himself with wealthy and powerful women. Over time, he had been linked to various NU. Face Agency models, including Erin Salston and Colette Duranger. But before that, Francisco had a fling with Vanessa Perrin herself and that got a bit… messy. And in recent years, Francisco seemed to just disappear. Now, here he was, looking just as good as ever, but Vanessa knew better. She was torn. On one hand, she didn’t want him to see her. On the other, she looked good, and that was always a thing to flaunt. Plus, Vanessa was nosy, and she wanted to know what Francisco was up to. She went back and forth for a few minutes, but ultimately made up her mind that she was going to walk a lap around the pool in her bikini top, skirt and sunglasses so she could monitor the situation without making eye contact. She got up off the lounge chair, tugged at her outfit and made everything look just so and put her glasses on. She turned to leave the cabana and stopped immediately in her tracks when she saw who Francisco was talking to… -Designed by Alain Tremblay

Back in 2006, alongside the Modern Pompadour collection (Fashion Royalty dolls, basic and dressed), the FR Homme Close Up collection debuted and I was lucky enough to be just beginning my FR collecting. The basic dolls back then were named Close Up dolls - and it looks like IT is bringing the name back for the current basic releases. Francisco and Pierre were the first two characters that debuted in the line, coming each as a basic doll, with two gorgeous additional outfits available separately for purchase plus a dressed Pierre De Vries doll with a totally different look than his basic one. Later in the year we got a male dress form, an IFDC Pierre, an FR convention (Jason Wu Event III) variant of the dressed Pierre and ονε Francisco release (Hi FLy) plus a FAO exclusive gift set from the Model Behaviour collection (the NU Face forerunner) alongside Erin (Power Couple). I have all the dealer doll and outfit releases and they are very close to my heart. And while this Francisco is really handsome and I am entering the lottery for him, it is a failed opportunity for Integrity Toys to celebrate 20 years of FR Homme dolls and maybe give us a gift set of Pierre and Francisco together. Just a reminder: the close up male dolls back then were $49.99!

It is Pride Month so Integrity Toys just released a two-doll gift-set in its honour: Parallel Hearts

It is June - so this means we are in the thick of the Pride Month celebrations across most of the world. In honour of Pride month, Integrity Toys unveiled a two doll gift-set called "Parallel Hearts": Reese Ryan and Ellery Eames. All W Club members can pre-order this special bonus made-to-order gift set, designed by David Buttry and Pamela Thompson. You probably remember the previous two-doll gift set for Pride Month, Love Is Love, with Cabot and Milo (sculpts and bodies are seemingly from TRUE/Industry lines). Yes, that was back in 2019… Maybe they should be releasing similar sets yearly?

As much as I love the idea of having a lesbian couple officially released by IT to honour Pride Month, this set looks luckluster and too tame, especially compared with the Love Is Love set years ago. And as we are talking about fashion dolls, I would have loved them to be more in tune with current fashion and style. There are some beautiful items among the clothing and accessories (e.g. the bags), but it is not my cup of tea at all. The dolls do look beautiful though and that is a major plus. Ellery’s sculpt was never a favourite but she looks lovely here. Reese seems to use the former Dree Hill sculpt from Color Infusion (without painted teeth). Also, we did not get a video presentation for this one, which is a bummer. I would have liked to listen to the two designers explain the concept and their inspiration in detail.

One of IT doll collectors, who does excellent doll photography, Rick Garza, made a mock up of how he would have liked to see this couple and I would have pre-ordered this in a heart beat.
