Barbie celebrated her 65th birthday this year but it's not the anniversary dolls that make me interested!

Barbara Millicent Roberts celebrated her 65th birthday this year - and of course there were the corresponding collector’s anniversary dolls to mark the occasion (along with a slew of play-line releases) but it was not any of them that caught my eye. Instead, I loved a new release exclusive to Mattel Creations, available for sale on the 21st of March 2024 on their website: Barbie Styled by Design Doll 1.

BARBIE STYLED BY DESIGN DOLL 1

SKU: HRM31

Label: Gold

Collection: Barbie Styled by Design

Designer: Suim Noh

Release Date: 2024

For our first entry in the Styled by Design series, we put the spotlight on designer Suim Noh to create a fabulous new Barbie doll. Inspired by fashion illustrations from the 1970s, Suim captured the decade’s exaggerated style with a bright pink satin dress featuring an oversized bow. Accessorized with black gloves, stiletto over-the-knee boots, and rhinestone accessories, this doll reflects Suim’s vision of elegance, extravagance, and nostalgia.

SKU#: HRM31

What a gorgeous Barbie doll - and without the usual sweet smile that they have (65th anniversary dolls included). The sculpt is Claudette, which is usually, if not only, found on collector limited editions, and it is one of my very favourites, because of the high fashion look it has. Her face paint looks good, if you ignore the black crease line in her eyes that shows the dreaded pixels (I mean… they could have avoided that, right?). Her hairstyle is too simple for such a doll, but I am guessing it helps keep the cost down. Would have preferred her being in the pivotal body.

I love her dress and the colour combination - very French. Also notice that she has metallic jewellery and her boots are made of fabric and not plastic! All these should be self evident in collector dolls but with Mattel there is no guarantee. Too bad she is such a limited edition and will disappear in a blink of the eyes. I’d love to have her and it looks like she’s the first in a series, so I’m excited to see what comes next. She looks great in her box too.

The 2024 W Club registration period has opened - with three upgrade dolls!

The W Club 2024 registration window has opened and you have until March 18th to enter. What is the W Club you say? Have you not been reading this website at all? The W Club is the one and only Official Collectors' Club for Integrity Toys, covering all their brands including Poppy Parker, Fashion Royalty, NU. Face, NU. Fantasy, East 59th, The Monarchs: Homme, Meteor, Tulabelle True & Co. and more. I have been a member for many years - definitely since 2008 or maybe 2007. And it is worth it just for the advance info alone, so that one gets to order IT releases in retail/club prices instead of paying at least double that.

Please see the registration video or contact Integrity Toys if you have any questions. Also see the presentation video below:

In addition to the first-to-know information, members-only forum, online chats, priority customer service and special events, W Club members will receive the following opportunities:

• Five additional W Club exclusive made-to-order dolls guaranteed throughout the year (IT cannot guarantee which lines they will be from or how many from which line, but they are currently expecting that these will come from Poppy Parker, Fashion Royalty and/or NU. Face during 2024).

More details are available in the FAQs (click here to read).

In addition to the above, you can also pay to upgrade each membership with one, two or all three of the upgrade dolls.

Item # 91557
Holiday Spot
Dania Zarr™ Dressed Doll
The Fashion Royalty® Collection
2024 W Club Upgrade Doll

Edition Size: TBD
Price: $165 + Shipping*

*This doll will have a $30 non-refundable deposit due immediately, with $135 + shipping balance due at shipping time, approximately in Fall 2024.

Head Sculpt: Dania
Body Type: FR 6.0
Foot Sculpt: High-heeled
Skin Tone: Blush
Hair Color: Soft Ebony
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story: When famous European TV personality Dania Zarr was "spotted" during a fashionable getaway in Rome, looking ever-so-chic and sporting a brand new sophisticated short hairdo, the look instantly went viral and was dubbed "The Dania"! Hair salons were bombarded with requests for that specific look, but no one could pull it off quite like she did!

Includes:

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

• Sophisticated polka dot dress with asymmetric handkerchief hem and spaghetti straps;

• Removable black belt;

• Matching polka dot headwrap;

• Hammered texture dangle hoop earrings;

• Hammered texture bangle bracelets;

• Oversized ring;

• White sunglasses;

• Red "patent leather" handbag;

• Contrasting polka-dotted ankle strap pumps;

• Pair of hands with long manicured nails;

• Alternate pair of grip hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

I love Dania with short hair - it gives her a very current Linda Evangelista feel (even though to me Eugenia will always be Linda in Fashion Royalty dolls). She looks stunning (Mothership screening) and rekindled my interest in getting an upgrade doll again, after last year’s none. Should we worry that the prototype has a badly drawn eyeliner or will it be fixed for production? She does give the intended Audrey Hepburn impression, as Jessy said in the video presentation, especially from her early days in Roman Holiday (Jessy talked about Sabrina and the b&w gown but they showed a background photo of a moped). I love the texture in the dress fabric. And what fabulous accessories! The bag is in the style of the Cannolo bag by Jill Sander (thanks to goddess Nevraforever for the help in identifying this!) I must say that this year’s prices are $5.00 up from last year’s (which was the same as the year before). Not much, but not nothing either. And it surely preambles an increase in general pricing going forward. 

Item # 82173
Sweet Retreat
Rayna Ahmadi™ Dressed Doll
The NU. Face™ Collection
2024 W Club Upgrade Doll

Edition Size: TBD
Price: $ 165+ Shipping*

*This doll will have a $30 non-refundable deposit due immediately, with $135+ shipping balance due at shipping time, approximately in Fall 2024.

Head Sculpt: Rayna
Body Type: NF 3.0
Foot Sculpt: High-heeled
Skin Tone: Sunkissed
Hair Color: Chestnut Brown
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story: After all that reality TV drama, Rayna Ahmadi is taking a much-needed retreat in Ibiza! Looking sweeter than ever with a spring in her step, this much needed vacay is just what the doctor ordered! Well... maybe those all-night parties aren't exactly what the doctor had in mind!

Includes:

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

• Sweet pink flared tweed shorts with matching youthful cropped vest with "pearl" detailing;

• Matching pink satin headwrap;

• Removable Robin's egg blue and "pearl" belt;

• Additional removable "pearl" belt with drop "pearl" detail;

• Lavender handbag with "N" monogram detail and "gold" accents;

• "Gold" "N" and "U" monogram earrings;

• "Gold" chain necklace;

• "Gold" and "pearl" ring;

• White "lace" socks;

• Robin's egg blue ankle strap pumps;

• Pair of long manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of grip hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

She’s a lovely doll, I’ll give her that. She even reminds me of model Bella Hadid. But, I already own Natural Wonder Rayna and Wild Feeling Rayna, both more fierce and stylish and powerful. She pales in comparison to them. If you do not own any of those two though, she’s a perfect buy. And very versatile. Her colouring owes a lot to Going Public Eugenia but adjusted for Rayna. Love the accessories (Valentino inspiration bag and earrings), could not care less about the outfit (is it Versace?). Pass, even though I’d love to have the accessories.

Item # 77253
Angel Eyes
Poppy Parker® Dressed Doll
The Poppy Parker® Collection
2024 W Club Upgrade Doll

Edition Size: TBD
Price: $ 160+ Shipping*

*This doll will have a $30 non-refundable deposit due immediately, with $130 + shipping balance due at shipping time, approximately in Fall 2024.

Head Sculpt: Poppy
Body Type: PP 1.5
Foot Sculpt: High-heeled
Skin Tone: Blush
Hair Color: Dark Brunette
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story: When Poppy Parker was initially cast in her historic role in "Undercover Angel", the producers were left asking who else they could cast that had the charm, beauty and talent to match Poppy Parker without getting overshadowed? The only answer they kept landing on was... nobody! Thus, everyone's favorite teenage model turned TV superstar got the groundbreaking opportunity to play opposite of herself as "Angel Eyes"!

Includes:

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

• Glamorous golden metallic disco-inspired one-piece jumpsuit;

• Golden clutch purse;

• Chunky golden platform high-heeled shoes;

• Gold-tone toy gun accessory;

• "Gold" drop circle earrings;

• Matching "gold" circle bracelet;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of grip hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

And there she is: the second Charlie’s Angels inspired doll (after Undercover Angel Poppy channeling Farrah Fawcett), Jaclyn Smith lookalike Poppy! Many had asked for more dolls inspired from the legendary 70s TV series and it seems David Buttry is giving them to us! She does not have a second outfit as the first one did (upgrade dolls come with one set of clothes) and they did show a sneak peek of a 70s style outfit that fits her and will be available later in the year to W Club members (see the video, link further up), but the first doll with two outfits was only $15.00 more and it really feels disappointing. I will be getting this one cause I love my Angels (and her name is Angel Eyes which also is a favourite Olivia Newton-John song), but the whole situation makes getting her not feel that satisfying.

If you are ready to join the W Club for 2024, go on and sign up here. And let me know in the comments if you will be getting any of the upgrades and which ones.

Dolly Days 2024 - Day 4: A modular trunk system!

For Day 4 of Dolly-Days, and based on many collectors' requests, Integrity Toys introduced a new doll trunk, designed by Alain Tremblay to display and store dolls and their miniature fashion accessories and clothes. For this final Dolly-Days offer, because of the modular nature of this set, W Club members will have an unlimited priority pre-order window until Friday, February 9th at 3 PM Eastern Time and special W Club-only discounted pricing. This means that members can purchase as many of the trunk and the additional components sold separately as they wish.*

Item #15104

Modular Trunk System:

Base Unit

IT Direct Exclusive

Edition Size: MTO

Expected Ship Date: Late Summer 2024

Dimensions (Closed):

12.25" Wide X 16" High X 7" Deep

Dimensions (Open/Per Set):

25" Wide X 16" High X 7" Deep

Approximate Total Weight:

8.5 lbs / 3.9 kg

MSRP: $250 + S & H

Special W Club Price: $225 + S & H

($50 non-refundable deposit per trunk base unit due now and balance of $175 + shipping due once the sets ship later in 2024)

Sales method: First-come, first-served W Club priority pre-order window starting immediately with no membership limit. Once the trunk (and add-on components sold separately) arrive later in 2024, should quantities remain, they will be offered to the general public at the higher MSRP price.

The Story:

A long time in the making, Integrity Toys is proud to bring you a fun new modular trunk system that will allow you to combine multiple trunks together to create a full environment for your dolls and create the miniature walk-in closet of your dreams! Featuring special hinges that allow the two main sections of the trunk to unlatch, as well as individual inner components that can be pulled out and re-arranged in various ways (or combined with other components sold separately) to create a fully customizable experience, you'll be able to organize, store and display all those tiny, Integrity Toys fashion accessories, doll clothing and more in a way never before possible!

Included:

• Beautifully crafted two-part carry case featuring latch-hinges, faux-leather carry handle and "GENUINE INTEGRITY TOYS" plaque deco;

• One removable doll storage compartment;

• One removable standing doll scale standing mirror;

• One removable shoe/boot rack;

• One removable, basic shelving unit (perfect to store all those adorable luggage pieces, not included!);

• One removable closet component;

• 10 chrome-plated metal hangers;

• One removable two-door armoire;

• Certificate of authenticity.

What a lovely surprise! I started collecting FR just in time to miss the big Refresh and Renew Trunk released back in 2006, which retailed at $224.99 and always wanted one! This is smaller in size, but, as you can see below, one can connect multiple trunks to make a larger one, and also get extra modular units to customize the look and function of the interior of the trunk. My only worry is that the material used for the finish is pleather (per the liaisons reply to a member email, the trunk is made of high impact/strong card stock and  variety of synthetic materials. Covered with vinyl/pleather and finished inside with a custom embossed velvet material. \they also note that the original trunk was constructed in the same manner, cardstock covered with vinyl), which we all know is very volatile with time - but the old trunk was made of the same materials and I have never seen anyone complaining of damage to that one. I will order this one and some of the extra units, although I know the shipping cost will kill me. Having used lots of larger doll trunks for ages as storage units for their outfits and accessories (the Franklin Mint ones), I know it is very convenient for me and my collection to have trunks like this around. Maybe in time I can get a second one too. I only wish that it had the drawers instead of the cupboard in the base trunk, they are so much more useful. On a side note, the liaisons also confirmed that you can open it to form a straight line from one side to the other.

Item #15125

($10 non-refundable deposit per cabinet due now and balance of $40 + shipping due once the sets ship later in 2024)

The Story:

Shine some light on your modular trunk system with this fun, light-up miniature curio cabinet! What a great way to display those beautiful jewelry pieces and other miniature Integrity Toys accessories! Bright LED driven, with a convenient on/off switch located at the inner back of the unit, which once integrated into your display, it will allow you to turn the lights on and off without pulling it out of the modular trunk (sold separately). The display possibilities are endless! Note: This is a new component and it is not included with the base unit, it is only sold separately.

Included:

• Base curio cabinet with two clear acrylic doors and miniature chrome handles;

• Four removable, transparent acrylic shelves;

• Built-in LED lighting (requires 3 AA batteries, not included);

• Certificate of authenticity.

This in an extra modular element that is actually a display case with light installed to show off the accessories you want to showcase. It looks amazing and will make a great element to add to the trunk.

Item #15126

Modular Trunk System:

6-Drawer Cabinet Component

IT Direct Exclusive

Edition Size: MTO

Expected Ship Date: Late Summer 2024

Dimensions:

11.5" Wide X 5.25" High X 3.5" Deep

Approximate Total Weight:

1.65 lbs / 0.75 kg

MSRP: $55 + S & H

Special W Club Price: $45 + S & H

($10 non-refundable deposit per component due now and balance of $35 + shipping due once the sets ship later in 2024)

Sales method: First-come, first-served W Club priority pre-order window starting immediately with no membership limit. Once the trunk (and add-on components sold separately) arrive later in 2024, should quantities remain, they will be offered to the general public at the higher MSRP price.

The Story:

So many little accessories, shirts, sweaters and items of doll clothing that are not really designed to be hanged, where to store them all? This high-quality 6 drawer chest component can be incorporated into the modular trunk system to create an elaborate cabinet to store and organize all those cherished, highly collectible pieces we all love so much in the neatest possible way! Note: This is a new component and it is not included with the base unit, it is only sold separately.

Included:

• Cabinet component;

• Six removable drawers with built-in chrome handles;

• Certificate of authenticity.

This is the element I wish was included in the basic trunk, instead of the cupboard. Drawers are so much better to keep jewellery and very small items inside, instead of the cupboard.

Item #15127

Modular Trunk System:

Closet Component

IT Direct Exclusive

Edition Size: MTO

Expected Ship Date: Late Summer 2024

Dimensions (Closed):

5.5" Wide X 9.5 " High X 3" Deep

Approximate Total Weight:

0.6 lbs / 0.27 kg

MSRP: $55 + S & H

Special W Club Price: $45 + S & H

($10 non-refundable deposit per component due now and balance of $35 + shipping due once the sets ship later in 2024)

The Story:

Your favorite Integrity Toys dolls and figures have an extensive wardrobe and we are all looking for cute ways to store and organize all those miniature couture pieces! This is your chance to add extra closet units to your modular trunk set to expand your doll clothing storage capacity! Each set includes 10 high-quality, miniature Integrity Toys doll hangers. Note: One closet and 10 hangers come included with each base unit, but we are also selling this component separately so that you can have more clothing storage space.

Included:

• Modular closet unit designed to fit inside the modular trunk set;

• 10 chrome-plated metal hangers;

• Certificate of authenticity.

This is good for storing more clothes on hangers. What I have not seen though is an extra element with space to hang long dresses and gowns or pants - the height of this unit does not look adequate for storing items like these. Also, another extra that would have been awesome to see: a vanity desk, stool and mirror. Maybe with functioning lights. Next time Alain? Please? And since I mentioned Alain, here is a video with him showing us the trunk.

**Reminders**

• No pre-order limit: Please note that there are no quantity limits on how many trunks and/or individual components that you would like to pre-order until approximately 3 PM Eastern on Friday, February 9th.

• Please note that the deposit payments for various components of this offer are non-refundable and non-transferable. If your deposit payment is not in by the set deadline, YOU WILL LOSE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRE-ORDER THESE ITEMS.

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

Edition Size: 600

Expected Ship Date: Mid-February 2024

Head Sculpt: Maeve

Body Type: E59 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled And Articulated Ankle

Skin Tone: Sunkissed

Hair Color: Honey Blonde

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

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;

• Removable brown turtleneck;

• Matching brown beret;

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

• Removable blue belt;

• Golden earrings;

• Alternate pair of high-heeled lower legs;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Pair of alternate short-gloved hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

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;

• Removable orange-red belt;

• Orange-red pumps;

• "Pearl" necklace and earrings;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Pair of alternate short-gloved hands;

• 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.

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)

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?

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.

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;

• 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).
