Imperfect

I've been eyeing Blondie from Epic Winter for some time. I liked earlier Blondies, but didn't want any, due to their flat faces. Epic Winter has a new mold, which is quite an improvement.

Przyglądałam się Blondie z Zimy Wszechbaśni od pewnego czasu. Wcześniejsze Blondie też mi się podobały, ale nie chciałam żadnej posiadać z powodu ich plaskatych buziek. Zimowa ma nowy mold, znacznie lepszy.

Review: Disney Animators' Collection Rapunzel Gift Set

Disney Animators' Collection Rapunzel Gift Set

I wanted this version of the Disney Animators' Collection Rapunzel, because my poor DAC dolls suffer from a severe shortage of clothes and she has two. I was also counting on two pairs of shoes, but no luck.

Chciałam tę wersję Roszpunki z Disney Animators' Collection, bo moje biedne lalki z DAC cierpią na ciężki niedobór ubrań, a ona ma aż dwa. Liczyłam też na dwie pary butów, ale bez powodzenia.

Tinkerbell

The problem with Obitsu body is that it doesn't fit anything. I mean, thanks to many fittings you can fix almost any head onto it, as long as you don't mind the color difference (or are really good at blushing). So yes, I'm a bit obsessive when it comes to color  match.

Problem z ciałkiem Obitsu jest taki, że niemal nic na nie nie pasuje. To znaczy, dzięki wielu przejściówkom da się zamontować na nim prawie każdą główkę, o ile nie przeszkadza ci różnica kolorów (albo jesteś mistrzem podkolorowywania ciałka). Przyznaję, mam lekką obsesję na punkcie dopasowania kolorystycznego.

I am not dead yet, simply very, very busy.

Jeszcze nie umarłam, jestem po prostu bardzo, bardzo zajęta.

Dormant Elve

In winter all elves sleep deep in caves, in their glass caskets...

...where a lonely girl can come and admire...

...the man of her dreams...

...and wish for a life by his side.

Disney Store's 2012 Snow White

I'm in love with the 2011 version of Disney Store's Snow White (still need to get her), but the 2012 is even prettier!

Fully poseable body, hinged knees and ankles, bendy wrists.

Sweetest face ever!

More princesses!

Disney Store's 2012 Princess Tiana

At first I didn't want Tiana, but when I saw this version with closed mouth, I changed my mind.

Lottie

The above is rather self explanatory, why I love Charlotte. The greates disappointment of my last visit in UK was that I didn't buy her. My friend said that she wasn't buying her for me because "she's so pink all over, she's freakin' me out". Yup, she's freaky and pink and completely insane. :)

Charlotte on a frog hunt

I could easily get the Mattel's Charlotte, but that wasn't it, she is just too pretty and... well, normal. And I finally got the Disney Store's version! This is the first edition with rubber "clicking" legs and squint. Perfect!

Disney Store's 2012 Glitter Princess Rapunzel

Once upon a time in a high tower in the middle of a forest...

...Rapunzel was waiting for her savior...

...so she could rejoice...

...and dance all day...

...but for now...

...she could only patiently wait to hear

 'Rapunzel, Rapunzel,

Let down your hair to me.'

Mermaid Kayla

A friend remembered that I wanted a redhead mermaid Kayla and kept her for me, when he found her in a thrift store. He packed her in this truly amazing box and gave to me as a surprise. It's been ages since I got a doll as a surprise gift!

I've been looking for this Kayla doll for ages. Her face and hair is perfect, exactly to my liking, but as much as I love mermaids, I absolutely hate permanent tails, although construction of this particular one is interesting. It is covered with soft rubber with a joint in the middle, so it moves quite nicely.

I got a Fashionistas body for her immediately, but got stuck and cannot think of a style for her. Well, I will probably wake up one day and know what to do with her.

I just wanted to say this once again: I love this doll, thank you, thank you, thank you! :D

Disney's dolls

I went through my second shelf today, the one with Disney/fairytale dolls. Their number's been slightly reduced in the last months. I decided to keep only the dolls I really like.
I put away most of Princesses made by Simba cause they started... decomposing. They're not old, most of them was produced less than 6 years ago, but their bodies turned yellow and some makeups faded. The same thing happened to the girls I kept in boxes, so it's not the fault of UV or dust. Anyway, it made me really angry. I kept only Simba's Aladdin and Jasmin, Mulan and two Ariels. I guess the problem concerns only the dolls from the first and second edition. Unless more yellowing is ahead of me, on the newer dolls.

I also got rid of Milo form Atlantis, Megara from Hercules, Anakin from Star Wars, Kayley and Garrett from The Magic Sword. These are nice, original and well made dolls, but I didn't relate to them. Actually, I have problems remembering what I got rid of, so I probably don't miss them too much. The shelf is dominated by Mulans now - 7 of them - and still pretty crowdy. :)

My absolute favourite - Dowager Empress from Anastasia. She moved from the shelf for a while cause I'm making her a new, more appropriate dress.

Two Pocahontas dolls salvaged from the shelf population reduction.

Many faces of Fiona.

Simba's Mulan - rather interesting than pretty.

My gorgeous Belle.
