Cold Carbon X Integrity Toys collaboration: the two final dolls are here!

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.

Included:

• 12.5-inch articulated fashion figure with rooted hair;

• Mystical look comprised of a white button-down collared shirt, black pants with a slightly cropped hem and dramatic black cape coat;

• Red satin necktie;

• Top hat;

• Oversized metal tipped black "crocodile skin" shoes;

• Custom-embellished walking stick;

• Vintage "leather" doctor's bag;

• Bull head pendant necklace;

• Steampunk style sunglasses;

• Detachable chain with cross charm;

• Ring;

• Socks;

• Pair of regular Homme hands;

• Alternate pair of gloved hands;

• Fashion figure stand;

• Story card;

• Certificate of authenticity.

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.

All That Vampire Drama

Kesenia Valentinova™ Dressed Doll

Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon

Edition Size: 1200

Expected Ship Date: May 2024

W CLUB ONLY IT DIRECT RIGHT-TO-BUY LOTTERY

Head Sculpt: Kesenia

Body Type: FR 6.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Porcelain

Hair Color: Black

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

MSRP: $199 + S & H

Special W Club RTB Winner Price: $175 + 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:

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.

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

Dolly Days - Day Two: The Weekend In The Poconos is the new East 59th collection!

Dolly-Days Day 2 was, much like in previous years, the day of the unveiling of the new East 59th Collection, designed by the amazing Chris Stoeckel. The collection is called The Weekend In The Poconos. Poconos was a famous resort destination in the 1950s and the concept is that some of the East 59th characters spend a weekend relaxing there. So it’s a collection of mix-and-match sportswear and matching luggage.

Three of the four dolls will be available via Integrity Toys' authorized dealers, while Laird Drake is an IT Direct item and will only be available via a right-to-buy lottery.

Item # 73057

Stroll In The Woods

Coralynn "Cora" Kwan™ Dressed Doll

East 59th®: The Weekend In The Poconos Collection

Edition Size: 600

Expected Ship Date: Mid-February 2024

MSRP: $160 + S & H

AVAILABLE ONLY FROM IT DEALERS

Head Sculpt: Coralynn

Body Type: E59 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled And Articulated Ankle

Skin Tone: Blush

Hair Color: Red

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story:

Coralynn "Cora" Kwan is perfectly dressed for an afternoon stroll in the woods with her good friend Laird! Wearing the latest in 1950s sportswear attire, this girl is ready to bask in the natural beauty of the Poconos. A gorgeous time to be celebrated ahead with so many memories to be had, she can't wait to get going!

Included:

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

• Glamorous mix-and-match sportswear look comprised of high-waisted woven plaid pants and a navy blue traveling coat with matching plaid accent details;

• Scarlet red turtle neck with separate removable scarlet red hood/cowl;

• Tangerine and white medium-sized East 59th monogrammed luggage with magnetic closure;

• One thicker red removable belt for the coat and one thinner red removable belt for the pants;

• Golden earrings;

• Red flats (designed to fit the articulated ankle lower legs, included);

• Alternate pair of high-heeled lower legs;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Pair of alternate short-gloved hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

A redhead version of Cora - this makes her now available in three basic hair colours: blonde, black and redhead - next one should be a brunette. I love the outfit, sporty but chic and elegant, in a way that only the 1950s could. She has a suitcase and each doll has a different luggage item, so all four make a complete luggage collection. Otherwise, her accessories are minimal, which didn’t use to be the case with this line. The good thing is that she comes with extra high heeled legs, in case she has to attend a cocktail party later on. I’d get her if I had a bigger budget - all three ladies ship mid February, so it is quite fast.

Item # 73058

Seeing The Sights

Maeve Rocha™ Dressed Doll

East 59th®: The Weekend In The Poconos Collection

The Story:

Maeve Rocha is a girl of adventure! Always ready to discover new glamorous locales, she was the first one to jump on the occasion of joining Laird and the other girls on this fabulous weekend retreat in the Poconos! The resort is so gorgeous, the place is so warm, inviting, and romantic, everything a girl desires is on the horizon!

Included:

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

• Impeccable mix-and-match sportswear look comprised of a woven plaid jumper/dress and cropped navy blue jacket;

Maeve makes an appearance again, this time as a blonde, with darker skin. I am not crazy about the outfit - it reminds me of The Chauffeur’s Daughter Sabrina doll, which I did not get because of the drab outfit. Love the hat and bag. She too has the extra high heeled legs.

Item # 73059

Traveling In Style

Evelyn Weaverton® Dressed Doll

East 59th®: The Weekend In The Poconos Collection

Edition Size: 600

Expected Ship Date: Mid-February 2024

MSRP: $160 + S & H

AVAILABLE ONLY FROM IT DEALERS

Head Sculpt: Evelyn

Body Type: E59 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Blush

Hair Color: Sable Brown

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story:

Evelyn Weaverton is a fashionable woman of substance who knows how to travel in style, and true to herself, her arrival at one of the most upscale resorts in the Poconos made quite a ruckus and we love her for it! All the other guests agreed, this is how it's done!

Included:

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

• Luxurious mix-and-match sportswear look comprised of a woven plaid knee-length skirt and button-down blazer jacket;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Evelyn is always impressive and this appearance is no exception, even if she’s in the sportiest we have ever seen her so far - in a very 1950s way of course. Her look is very elegant and well put together. The small case is much like the one Most Sophisticated Sabrina had, but in different colours.

Falling Leaves

Laird Drake® Fashion Figure

East 59th®: The Weekend In The Poconos Collection

Edition Size: 600

Expected Ship Date: Mid-To-Late March 2024

W CLUB ONLY IT DIRECT RIGHT-TO-BUY LOTTERY

Head Sculpt: Laird

Body Type: Homme 1.5

Skin Tone: Hungarian

Hair Color: Black Flocking

MSRP: $170 + S & H

Special W Club RTB Winner 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:

Laird Drake is a natural born leader, but even one of the most prominent advert execs on East 59th needs a little rest and relaxation from time to time! What better way to do just that than to book a fabulous weekend getaway with his favorite ladies! For him, the Poconos are just the right mix of pure fun and sophistication rolled into one and let us tell you, this debonair man of the world is ready for it all!

Included:

• 12.75-inch articulated fashion figure with flocked hair;

• Handsome traveling ensemble consisting of a bulky orange-red cable-knit sweater, brown trousers and woven plaid overcoat;

• Brown fedora;

• Brown penny loafers;

• Orange-red socks;

• Tangerine and white large East 59th monogrammed luggage with magnetic closure;

• Watch accessory;

• Two pairs of hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity;

Dashing Laird makes an appearance very quickly after his previous one, if you consider that it took years to make his second. Again a lottery doll (all the ladies are dealer dolls), with a limited edition of 600, it will be a bloodbath. I love his look and the colouring of it all - he looks smashing. He has a suitcase and a fedora hat, although I’d rather see him in a cap for a weekend in a resort. Come to think of it though, it is the first fedora that appears in the line, and it was about time for the guys, as it was the ubiquitous man’s hat back then. I entered the lottery, as he will be arriving mid to late March, which helps with better payment scheduling.

In case you did not notice, the collection is so coherent stylisticaly and visually, that the ladies can exchange pieces anytime - Chris Stoeckel took some photos to show it off. And you can also check a video of the dolls.

Dolly Days 2024 - Day One: Cold Carbon X Integrity Toys!

So Dolly Days are back again and the first day was a great surprise. It marked the debut of the first two of four dolls in the Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration, designed by the incredible Marina Zrnić, the extremely talented creator behind the Cold Carbon brand. If you are not following her instagram or are familar with her custom OOAK dolls, check her out now! it is great to see another creator collaborating with Integrity Toys and making their work available to a wider public. There will be four dolls in the collection, two of them presented now and available through lottery for W Club members. The other two will appear in 2024, as we heard in the live presentation on Monday. Let’s hear what Marina says about the collaboration:

"I knew I wanted something gothy. I knew I loved making vampires but IT already had Dracula and the Brides so I figured, you know what, I’m just gonna make vampire killers. They don’t get much love anyway and vampire killing surely isn’t an easy job. They needed to be represented. So, I wanted to make characters with their distinct style and histories. For Bellamy, I wanted some laid-back boho goth, as he is a pretty laid-back guy, led by a sense of what feels good. Jordan got a western/cowboy style goth that complements her more 'lone rider' character." -Marina Zrnić (Cold Carbon)

But who is Marina Zrnić and how did she end up making those amazing OOAK dolls?

"I was born in a small town in Croatia in 1988, and growing up in that specific environment was very challenging. I loved drawing and fashion design since very young age but my funny, and very honest worry was, what if I run out of inspiration and start creating from my head? I could see that a lot and that, combined with the awareness of my environment led me to forget about that dream. I studied American Literature and Indology, and was very interested in Environmental History and Bioethics but at the same time, I really suffered without a creative outlet I abandoned.

So, when I changed my diet, I found creativity in raw food chef position, but life decided to put me on the path where I will find the creativity that truly resonated with me. In a very, what some might see as, illogical way I 'found out' about doll collecting and Integrity Toys dolls and I knew I wanted to make dolls. Of course, I had no idea about the whole doll collecting world and possibilities, how to repaint, or reroot, what materials to use… zero… but it was a beam of clarity and healing I needed at that time, and I didn’t question how. I just knew I’m making dolls. One thing led to another and I realized people wanted my dolls, despite them being very niche.

And something like 5 years later, here I am. For me, making dolls is making characters. Getting to know parts of yourself you might not be aware of. In my characters, my 'crew', I could see the parts of me I didn’t want to see, I forgot about, I judged, I craved for and it led to some amazing integrations. I love putting dolls in stories and connecting with them through archetypes we all have in ourselves. It’s a way to find compassion for yourself and consequently for the whole of humanity. Through that (among some other things), I’m finding out who I am, and what it means to be authentic." -Marina Zrnić (Cold Carbon)

After Dark

Bellamy Blue™ Fashion Figure

Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon

Edition Size: 1200

Expected Ship Date: Mid-To-Late March 2024

W CLUB ONLY IT DIRECT RIGHT-TO-BUY LOTTERY

Head Sculpt: Bellamy Blue

Body Type: Homme 1.5

Skin Tone: Japan

Hair Color: Auburn

MSRP: $199 + S & H

Special W Club RTB Winner Price: $175 + 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:

In this first 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!

As the tale begins, meet Bellamy Blue, the star of our story, a romantic and ultra-stylish vampire hunter, pursuing his prey in a mysterious world where thanks to the efforts of courageous men like him and his friends, love, justice (and fashion) will always prevail over the forces of evil! Will he finally rid the world of this maleficent blood-sucking plague?

Included:

• 12.5-inch articulated fashion figure with rooted hair;

• Laid-back Boho-goth look comprised of distressed dark grey jeans and vintage-inspired flower print black shirt;

• Satin kimono;

• Western-style boots with strap and "silver" buckle;

• Western-style belt with detachable "gun" holster;

• Toy "gun" accessory;

• Two "silver" rings;

• Round "silver" sunglasses with red lenses;

• Hat with embellished band;

• "Silver" gothic cross necklace;

• Nose ring;

• "Cigarette" accessory;

• Pair of regular Homme hands;

• Alternate pair of hands with tattoos;

• Fashion figure stand;

• Story card;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Bellamy always turns out amazing - I have yet to see one bad looking version. Combine that with the creativity of Marina and you have a winner. Even with the restrictions that making a doll for mass production entails, she manages to give us a doll worthy of her OOAK work, alluring and mysterious, different and alternative from the usual IT fare. Making me like a long haired male doll is a feat on its own! I’m not that crazy about guns on dolls, I think that could have been avoided with different vampire hunter weapons (swords, knives, stakes etc.). Love his kimono style overcoat and the flowery shirt (that weirdly makes the character even more mysterious - a vampire hunter in florals?) and his boots are awesome. I love the hat, and it’s a first this style appears on an IT doll, as well as the awesome glasses! Bellamy’s jewellery are also great, as are his tattooed hands (with traditional Balkan motifs). Let’s hope I can win him in the lottery.

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

MSRP: $220 + S & H

Special W Club RTB Winner Price: $199 + S & H

The Story:

The hunt continues to rid the world of a dark plague that is creating fear in the hearts of all men! For the second of four sensational dolls created for Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration, the tables turn around and the chase will start yielding results... Vampires beware, the hunters are drawing near!

Jordan Duval is the best collaborator an outlandish Vampire Hunter like Bellamy Blue could have. This strong, powerful lady comes fully equipped with all that she needs to complete the hunt and set the heart of the undead aflame (quite literally)! Her friends can rely on her, and Jordan always gets her sucker in the end!

Included:

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

• Western/cowboy style goth look comprised of Western-style black jeans with decorative stitching and a Western-style black shirt with studs and collar tips;

• Black cowboy duster;

• Western-style boots with "brass" studs, strap, and buckle;

• Brown "leather" belt with "brass" skull buckle and detachable gun holsters/leg harness;

• Two toy "gun" accessories;

• Western-style bolo tie;

• "Brass" sunglasses with red lenses;

• Hat with a "brass" skull decorated band;

• Two "brass" cross earrings, one with a chain connected upper ring;

• Vintage luggage;

• Pair of black-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of "grip" gloved hands;

• Doll stand;

• Story card;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Jordan is always a welcome appearance in IT reveals and she makes a gorgeous doll here. The hairstyle is something we have seen on Cold Carbon OOAK dolls (almost) and the hair colour fits her perfectly. She looks closer to a cowboy (or cowgirl) more than Bellamy does, what with the bolo tie, the cowboy boots and belt and the hat (which we have seen before on IT dolls, as well as the glasses). It is a bit weird that none of the photos show the chain double earring, although we did see it on the video presentation. She’s beautiful but not my cup of tea. If she was closer to the more edgy and extreme styles Cold Carbon usually does, I might have caved in, but not as she is now and for that price. Awesome trunk (with Cold Carbon written on it).

Below is a video showing the dolls in better detail

Fashion Royalty Moments mini collection - did we really need this?

We already knew since the beginning of this club year that a major part of the releases in 2023 would be “Moments”, i.e. repeated versions in alternate colours of previous dolls from Jessy Ayala. Fashion Royalty now has three new dolls for the Moments Collection, designed by him. They are all available through W Club-only "right-to-buy" lotteries and each has an edition of 1,200 dolls. I think the Moments idea was interesting but that it had to expand throughout the IT history and not only on Jessy’s dolls. There are so many incredible dolls that deserved a second appearance in a recoloured version and we are not getting that, having instead dolls that their original versions are only a few years old.

The Story:

Parisian socialite Véronique Perrin puts a fashionable, retro-inspired twist on one of her personal favorite couture ensembles, immediately creating an instant style "moment" that is sure to lock her place on every "best-dressed" list again this year!

Included:

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

Nice but I already have the original Stylish Escape suit, so it is more than enough for my collection. Would love to have this bag though, it is gorgeous.

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:

Always the embodiment of glamour and style, Adèle Makéda has to make a quick appearance in Miami and has decided to pay homage to her friend Kesenia Valentinova! The crowd gasps when they see her arrive in all her pink glam gorgeousness, creating a fashion "moment" of her own!

Included:

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

• Glamorous pink statement dress with strap, buckle and button details;

• Chandelier earrings with coin dangles;

• Open cuff bracelet;

• Filigree ring;

• Matching pink clutch with "silver" buckle and stud detail;

• Strappy pink high heels;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of "grip" hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Another iteration of the Glam aesthetic, this Adele is a direct recolouring of Miami Glam Kesenia Valentinova from 2020 online convention, who was a re-imagining of Glow Vanessa Perrin from 2006m who was inspired by the Versace Barbie of 2004. The doll looks gorgeous and reminds me of two previous versions of her: Le Smoking from the Gloss convention (2014) and Petite Robe Classique from the 2020 online event. The dress was not a favourite in its first iteration on Kesenia, it remains so this time, with the added problem that it looks very transparent. I might have entered for this doll but January means two pre-orders arriving, so I will skip. Best doll of the three in my opinion. They gave a warning about her hair colour in the email:

IMPORTANT NOTE: The hair color on this doll is a shade of espresso brown in person (slightly lighter than shown in the product pictures). Please take note that this doll does not have black hair. Please refer to the "in-person" video as it is more reflective of the correct shade for this doll's hair;

The Story:

At this point, there's no one left for Baroness Agnes Von Weiss to upstage and outshine... Other than herself! And what better way to become the talk of the night than to show up to the same fabulous soirée four years later in an unexpected color variation version of her most sensational look!

Included:

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

• Sexy, strapless chartreuse form-fitted dress with side-ruched detail;

• Pink faux fur stole;

• Golden, patterned clutch purse;

• Removable fox brooch;

• Chartreuse hat with feather and "pearl" accents;

• Layered "jeweled" necklace;

• Matching "pearl" and "jewel" earrings and bracelet;

• Pair of painted gloved hands with pink satin opera-length arm covers;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of grip hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

We have seen Agnes sport chartreuse before: Truly, Madly, Deeply was the event doll at the 2012 collection presentation. She even had a hairstyle quite similar to this. Of course she is the recoloured version of Intimate Soirée from the 2020 online convention. She looks gorgeous and the colouring suits her a lot. But, as I already have Truly, Madly, Deeply as well as the 2014 event doll High Visibility, who has similar colouring (red hair and lips), I think I’m covered. Love the fox brooch. And I remembered that her dress reminds me of Cosmetic Takeover Natalia.

So, are you entering for any of these three ladies? You can also check the video showing them rotating - and wonder why did Adele get short-shifted and has what clearly is a bad, homemade video, instead of the glammed up one the other two dolls have.

Neutral Code: Poppy Parker goes mod once more!

We got a mini collection of Poppy Parker dolls this year - and, as we already knew, it is inspired by the Mod era. The concept is that Poppy travels from New York to London for the opening of avant-garde artist Riley Ridget's latest "Op Art" installation. Designed by David Buttry, it is the first ever Poppy Parker collection completely in black and white. Two dolls are lottery through the W Club and the others are sold through dealers.

Poppy Parker® Dressed Doll

The Poppy Parker® Collection

Edition Size: 1500

Expected Ship Date: Late Winter/Spring 2024

MSRP: $165 + S & H

AVAILABLE ONLY FROM IT DEALERS

Head Sculpt: Poppy

Body Type: Poppy 1.5

Foot Sculpt: Articulated Ankle And High-heeled

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Color: Platinum

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story:

Famed Op Art creator Riley Ridget personally invited Poppy Parker and her friends to attend her next big optical art show in London... Such a genius always recognizes that while the art itself is important, having the "right" crowd at the opening doesn't hurt one's reputation in the art world! Everyone's favourite fashion model, Poppy Parker, knows this and she is more than happy to groove her way into the "IT" crowd and set the tone for what is sure to become one of the 1960s most memorable art moments!

Included:

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

• "A-line" houndstooth coat dress with ¾ bell sleeves;

• Matching hat;

• Black tights;

• High-heeled ankle booties with contrasting houndstooth detail and working zip (designed to fit the high-heeled lower legs, also included);

• Black and white handbag with shoulder strap and chrome beading detail;

• Oversized sunglasses;

• Newly developed earrings and matching ring;

• Cuff bracelet;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Pair of alternate gloved hands (with separate opera-length gauntlets);

• Bonus! Pair of alternate articulated ankle lower legs;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

I love this one - the smoky eye combined with pale lips is always a winner for me and the pied-de-poule (or hounds-tooth) pattern always a favourite.She fully embodies the concept. She will look great next to The Girl from I.N.T.E.G.R.I.T.Y. Poppy from 2014, which would fit perfectly in this collection too. She has the Hold That Tiger screening. The closest I could get researching the inspiration is this 1966 Geoffrey Beene outfit.

The Story:

Poppy Parker has heard the call and has agreed to make an appearance at one of London's most highly anticipated art shows of the decade! Ready to jet in style from New York to London on the Concord, our girl Poppy makes a totally MOD fashion statement in black and white, ready for hours of fashionable fun ahead!

Included:

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

• High-contrast, black and white "uniform" style one-piece dress;

• White fishnets;

• Knee-high boots (designed to fit the articulated ankle lower legs, included);

Not feeling this one. And the main reason is that she reminds me a lot of the British Invasion Poppy from the Swinging London collection in 2017, which I already own. Then, it is the lip colour that does not seem to go with her hair colouring at all. She has darker hair than BI. Also their hats are identical - only BI’s is white.  So I skipped entering the lottery for this one. The inspiration is from a 2013 outfit from Fay Spring Summer collection, which of course was inspired by similar mod era dresses.

Her hair and make up are fitting for the era and outfit, making her look a million bucks. Welcome again Miss Jolie James.
