The 5th and final W Club doll is here - and it's an instant NU Classic!

The 5th and final W Club doll of the 2021 membership year was revealed yesterday to members via email. As expected by many, it is a NU Face doll - the surprise is that the doll is Lilith in dark A-tone. IT designer Jessy Ayala delivered on a long awaited collector desire (twins in a dark skin tone). So here we have Lilith Blair, named as NU. Classic, with a dark skin and curly puffs, wearing a suit that looks like Chanel but is instead a Saint Laurent Fall 2021 outfit. Want to bet that one of the upgrade dolls for 2022 will be Eden in a dark skin tone and complimenting outfit as was done with Mademoiselle Lilith?

What a great way to start Black History Month! I am not a fan of the Lilith/Eden sculpt; I consider it too bland and characterless (if it was a human I’d use the word vapid) to my liking. On the other hand, artists prefer a blank canvas to create magic and sometimes a great doll can come from that - as is the case here. She looks amazing, from her make up and her hair style, to the outfit and the accessories. is the price too high? Yes it is. I cannot understand how the third club doll two months ago had two outfits and more detailed accessories (no, giving us those beautiful Amina Muaddi shoes and a Prada Cleo bag clone is not enough) plus two pairs of shoes (Lukas I’m looking at you) and retailed only $5.00 more. Supposedly the outfits are what raises the cost of a dressed doll, as Integrity Toys has repeatedly mentioned. So what gives? Inquiring minds want to know.

Also how come Lilith is described as a true New Yorker in the story blurb? The twins are Eurasians according to their storyline. Unless the meaning is that she is a true New Yorker at heart. LOL

The end of Dolly Days 2021 brought a variety of offerings: a Monarch, a Meteor and lots of hair

Dolly-Days Day 5 was the last day of the “unofficial” event of Integrity Toys (delayed this time from December to January). A day with offerings by designer Vaughn Sawyers that included a guy from the Monarchs Homme line plus a lady from the Meteor line, along with some accessories. They are all made-to-order* (up to one of each style per membership) for W Club members. They are extra from the five 2021 W Club exclusive dolls, so this means we are still waiting for our fifth club exclusive (either a NU Face or a Fashion Royalty doll).

Certificate of authenticity.

Romain makes an appearance in Dolly Days - it’s been a while since we last saw a Monarch (was it the twins?) and he certainly looks a bit downtrodden for a much vaunted financier. He’s not even wearing Off White or Louis Vuitton. He’s too plain dressed to pass off as a Monarch and at that price range - Club Lukas was $5.00 more expensive but was wearing tailored clothes (two sets of them) plus more extravagant shoes and bag. I’m not convinced I should pay so much for a sorry pair of jeans and a hoodie.

The coat alone is not making the cut - Integrity has released much better overcoats (Bellamy Blue anyone?). A couple of records and a pair of headphones don’t sugarcoat this bitter pill I’m afraid. This could have looked so much better if the coat was in a different colour (silver or white?) with more groovy pants (degrade jeans? how soccer mom), a trendy pair of trainers, the hoodie with a nice print at the back and a logo-ed t-shirt. When you brand a guy doll (enough with this figure nonsense, it’s 2022) a Monarch, he should have to show more (he does not even have the Monarch body) to justify the name and the price tag. Just sayin’.

Certificate of authenticity.

I love Zuri Okoty and this incarnation could very well be her best so far. And yes. the tooth gap has returned and I can finally own her with it! Plus the cropped. almost white hair is a favourite style to see on a black doll (Kith Barbie I am looking at you) and this looks so good. Hair face is gorgeous and the idea with the wig is very welcome - I don’t think we have seen Integrity doing wigs since the first Monogram collection and, further back, the Modern Pompadour line. That Fashion Royalty line was the one that made me fall in love with these dolls and it featured four ladies with wigs as basic dolls (each wearing corseted lingerie). Belle Du Soir Kyori was my first IT doll ever. And I have all dolls from that collection except basic Vero. So I am very excited to see wigs coming back.

The only problem with this doll is where the inspiration from the dress is coming from. it is almost an exact copy of a Dolce & Gabbana outfit from 2018. The problem is, this designer duo are known to be racist (the major China incident almost cost them their fortune), homophobes (even though they are gay, they oppose gay marriage and gay parenthood). Not to mention their tax dodging scandals. I’d appreciate it if Integrity Toys did a bit of research before copying such people. Your company name is Integrity after all. And I am certain that there are so many other designers out there to be inspired from.

Item # 46028

Good Hair Wig Pack

Edition Size: TBD

Expected Ship Date: Late Summer 2022

Retail Price: $75.00

(Only $15.00 Due Now to Pre-order!)

Designed to Fit Meteor Dolls

*WIG PACK ONLY INCLUDES 3 WIGS LISTED BELOW; OTHER WIG PACK AND DOLL SOLD SEPARATELY.

Included:

One pixie length vibrant red wig;

One waist-length brunette curly wig;

One thigh-length blond micro-braided wig.

The first wig pack that comes today has three different styles: a short red one (that’s not a pixie cut though, pixie is a much shorter style, like Audrey Hepburn for example, or Jean Seaberg, or Twiggy), a micro braid one and a long curly one. I have a short black wig from Monique’s that’s styled exactly like the red one.

I also have an afro wig from my Urban Antoinette Adele Makeda, which I like better than those unruly curls, so I am not getting the pack just for the micro braid one - which looks to be two-toned. The red one on Zuri reminded me of Mary J. Blige. I noticed that while on the specifications they write that the wigs fit Meteor dolls, in the “storyline” for each set they mention that the wigs are designed to fir most 12” dolls. Go figure.

Item # 46029

This Hair Is Mine Wig Pack

Edition Size: TBD

Expected Ship Date: Late Summer 2022

Retail Price: $75.00

(Only $15.00 Due Now to Pre-order!)

Designed to Fit Meteor Dolls

*WIG PACK ONLY INCLUDES 3 WIGS LISTED BELOW; OTHER WIG PACK AND DOLL SOLD SEPARATELY.

Included:

One shoulder-length aqua wig with ombré shading at the middle part;

One waist-length two-toned (brown with black underneath) wig with bangs;

One buttocks-length sable wavy wig.

The brown wig with the bangs looks a lot like the wig of my Belle Du Soir Kyori Sato, so that’s one I already have. The sable one does not look very well styled, so that leaves only the aqua blue one - not getting the pack for just one wig. I don’t know why but Zuri in the photo with the aqua wig reminds me of Khandi Alexander.

Dolly Days 4 brings us an Elyse Jolie doll - again

The fourth Dolly Day revealed a Fashion Royalty doll: Glamour Coated Elyse Jolie. She is part of last year’s Maison FR collection, which raises the question if she was designed along with the other dolls that make it up (Le Tuxedo Eugenia Perrin, Enamorada Naralia Fatale, Siren Silhouette Korinne Dumas and Little Day Ensemble Veronique Perrin) and she got delayed like Natalia (who broke the record I think, being late even more than Mothership Dania Zarr). She does have a different photographer though. Whatever the reason for including her in that line up, she is now available through right to buy lottery for W Club members.

Yes she is a beautiful doll. Yes, Elyse looks fresher than ever (I first thought she was Giselle while opening the email), even with a hairstyle similar to Vendetta Agnes. Yes, her outfit (and particularly the voluminous coat) is exquisite. Yes, she has gorgeous accessories (the bag reminds me of Bottega Venatta’s Casette but with a diagonal grid). But why does it have to be Elyse again? Especially in a year that Veronique and Eugenia are missing in action? When we got two of this character already in the year (yes, the second one is a convention doll, but still). It has a whiff of that Jason Wu anniversary, when all the special dolls released for it were Elyse - there were probably more dolls of this character released that year than in her entire line up until then. Jessy dear, there are so many other wonderful Fashion Royalty characters available: Isabella, Tatyana, Kyori, Isha, Luchia, plus the aforementioned Veronique and Eugenia. Maybe a second Adele 2.0 even. I did enter the lottery for her, as she is beautiful - and the combination of dark hair, pale skin and red lips is always attractive to me. I like me some Evil Queen vibes (no, not that snowflake Snow White darling).

Integrity Toys Dolly Days continue with the East 59th collection: La Femme Godiva

Third day for Dolly Days and the East 59th line had a date with the W Club - just like the previous time! Four dolls for the collection titled "La Femme Godiva" and a stellar job overall from Chris Stoekel! One of the four dolls is a lottery-only, W Club exclusive, the three remaining ones are dealer dolls. If you have not contacted your dealer yet, do it now. Just a reminder that some dealers put them directly on their website and do not take pre-order emails. Also Sideshow will probably put them up tomorrow, as Friday is the day reserved for W Club members to preorder.

Item # 73047

Arctic Moon

Coralynn "Cora" Kwan™ Dressed Doll

The East 59th® Collection

Limited Edition: 750 Dolls

Expected Ship Date: Summer 2022

Suggested Retail Pricing: $160.00

IT DIRECT RIGHT-TO-BUY LOTTERY FOR W CLUB MEMBERS ONLY

Head Sculpt: Coralynn (New Character!)

Body Type: East 59th 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Japan

Hair Color: Blonde

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Quickswitch: No

Included:

12-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with long, luscious, rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

Nude/sheer long-sleeved bodysuit with carefully applied rhinestone design;

Show-stopping dusty lilac, mermaid-style skirt with elaborately decorated facing at the waist;

Extravagant, long, dusty pink faux-mink coat with exaggerated shawl collar;

Two faux jewel-encrusted cuff bracelets;

Oversized earrings with "stone" details;

Elaborate necklace dripping in sparkling "stones";

Clear vinyl open-toe pumps with pink "stone" accents;

Perfume atomizer accessory;

Pair of long manicured hands;

Alternate pair of "strike a pose" hands with long manicured nails;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

This is by far the most gorgeous doll of this collection! Chris has done an incredible job with her, again a bit Mugler inspired I guess - this time though more adjusted to the appropriate era for East 59th (Mugler did the fur coat too back then). The fur, the bodysuit, the skirt, wow! We have seen all the accessories before, but who cares if they match so well for an exquisite ensemble? The doll is a new character but the face looks familiar. Chris confirmed in a comment on one of his Instagram posts that it is indeed a refreshed old sculpt. When I first saw her, I though of the original Kyori sculpt but more experienced collectors have commented that it it probably Alysa from the old Integrity Toys playline dolls. In any case, she’s beautiful and I hope I win the lottery for her. W Club members have until January 31st, 2021 at noon Eastern Time to enter. If they win, they have to pay only $30.00 as a first Instalment to secure the doll, that ships in summer, when the rest of the amount will have to be paid along with shipping.

Item # 73044

Frosted Passion

Della Roux™ Dressed Doll

The East 59th® Collection

Limited Edition: 750 Dolls

Expected Ship Date: Summer 2022

Suggested Retail Pricing: $160.00

*Available from Authorized Dealers Only*

Head Sculpt: Victoire 2.0

Body Type: East 59th 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: FR Black

Hair Color: Sable

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Quickswitch: No

Included:

12-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with beautiful, long, rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

Period inspired custom-designed three-piece frosted blue satin ensemble with intricate embroidery detailing and matching faux-fur trim;

Matching faux-fur muff and hat;

Elaborate beaded necklace with rhinestone accents;

"Stone" encrusted cuff bracelet;

Matching earrings;

Lipstick accessory;

Frosted blue open-toe pumps;

Pair of long manicured hands;

Alternate pair of "gloved" hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

The second appearance of Miss Della Roux (third if you count the scrumptious OOAK one I got from Chris Stoeckel and Integrity Toys as a gift for interviewing him live on Instagram) is a smashing one. Dressed in powder blue, with matching accessories, Della hits the ball right out of the park! She gives off Dominique Deveraux (from the original Dynasty TV series) vibes. Pure perfection. She’s sold out at most dealers and I can understand why.

Item # 73045

Pink Mist

Maeve Rocha™ Dressed Doll

The East 59th® Collection

Limited Edition: 750 Dolls

Expected Ship Date: Summer 2022

Suggested Retail Pricing: $160.00

*Available from Authorized Dealers Only*

Head Sculpt: Maeve (New Character!)

Body Type: East 59th 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Sunkissed

Hair Color: Black

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

Included:

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

Show-stopping, ¾ sleeve couture-inspired fitted jacket featuring an Intricately embroidered portrait collar, and a flower and tulle scarf ornament detail at the hip;

Matching embroidered capri pants;

Bonus! Calf-length tulle skirt;

"Stone" encrusted drop earrings;

Matching cuff bracelet;

Cigarette holder accessory (with "pretend" cigarette);

Fascinator hat;

Eyeshadow pallet accessory;

Pink open-toe ankle strap heels;

Pair of long manicured hands;

Alternate pair of gloved hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

Another new character introduced in this collection, Brasilian Maeve initially reminded me of the original Victoire sculpt (which was Dynamite Girls Jasper), but that one had a much more delicate nose - people who know better recognised the Integrity Toys playline Jade doll sculpt. Probably refreshed too, like Cora. Beautiful doll with a striking outfit - its versatility and different pieces plus the cigarette holder remind me of the first Constance outfit.

Item # 73046

Pressed Perfection

Evelyn Weaverton® Dressed Doll

The East 59th® Collection

Limited Edition: 750 Dolls

Expected Ship Date: Summer 2022

Suggested Retail Pricing: $160.00

*Available from Authorized Dealers Only*

Head Sculpt: Evelyn 1.0

Body Type: East 59th 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Color: Golden Blonde

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

Included:

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

Perfectly tailored custom printed cocktail-length dress, featuring contrasting layered peplum detailing at the waist, and a removable belt;

Vibrant lime ¾ sleeve satin bolero jacket;

Pale pink faux-fur muff and matching hat;

"Pearl" and "stone" earrings;

Matching cuff bracelet;

Pale pink open-toe pumps;

Powder compact accessory;

Pair of long manicured hands;

Alternate pair of "gloved" hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

Evelyn is always sure to be one of the best dolls in every East 59th line up and she surely does not disappoint here. The cut of her outfit brings to mind her first outing but in quite a different concept. The Egyptian hieroglyphics print is very original. Two minor points: a. I’d love to see her in different hairstyles and hair colours and b. I would have preferred the accessories to be in that lovely shade of green from her outfit instead of powder (get it?) pink. Just nitpicking here.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Prototypes shown, final product may vary. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. The acrylic block in the accessory photos is not included.

Dolly Days are back again - and the fourth W Club doll for 2021 is revealed!

Due to the convention being held late in 2021, the unofficial Dolly Days tradition was moved to January 2022., to the joy of all W Club members. The first day gave us members the opportunity to: a. order replacement bodies from a variety of types and skin tones offered (unfortunately FR bodies had only Hungarian ver. 5.0 and sun-kissed ver. 6.0, so I got one of each that I needed and there were no FR white available NU Face ones that I needed). and b. pre-order a small variety of FR and NU Face bodies (here we could pre-order FR white ones for Fashion Royalty but not for NU Face - why was that?). All lines were pretty much represented, with The Industry, East 59th and Meteor having the most variety. There was a small selection of FR Homme ones (no dark A tone one unfortunately) and Monarch ones too.

The second day gave us the 4th W Club exclusive doll - and it is Poppy Parker, another Palm Springs Collection entry! Let’s check her out!

She is a beauty! The doll has lovely colouring - the earthy tones make her quite special. I must say I am happy she does not have pink lipstick, that would have been a deal breaker for me. The hairstyle is more Ariana Grande than Palm Springs and here I wonder why we do not get any of the more elaborate, blown -up, overly decorated hairstyles we saw in the late sixties - the addition of a hairpiece would have been awesome as well. We have seen plenty of ponytails, it is time to move on. The sequinned top and pants are dazzling and match perfectly with the fur coat, which is a colour variation of the one we saw in the convention style lab - I do not mind! Love the accessories too, especially the earrings - and we get two pairs of shoes and both high-heels and articulated ankle feet!
