Deboxing dolls
by Patricia Feick 07 Apr '02

07 Apr '02

I agree with Suzanne, once you debox a few, it becomes easier and easier to display your dolls. I view dolls as art. I display my favorite dolls in small glass show cases. This way I can appreciate them every day. I just do not have a lot of space to display, or I would have every doll deboxed that I own. That is the reason I sold off a lot of dolls that I had to keep in closets due to not having room to display. Take Care Pat feick

Display question

Hi All, Got some pics taken, and thought I would share. These first two show my display shelves. The two story book dolls on the top shelf are awaiting my MIL and are not really part of my collection. The stack of boxes to the left is my "stash". http://www.frii.com/~mroczko/room1.jpg http://www.frii.com/~mroczko/room2.jpg These next two are my OOAK shelf from both ends. http://www.frii.com/~mroczko/room3.jpg http://www.frii.com/~mroczko/room4.jpg And this last is the … [View More]

Spring Cleaning
by Patricia Feick 06 Apr '02

06 Apr '02

Eight years ago, we remodeled the whole house, at that time I sent a truckload to auction, and then I gave away, donated, and threw out everything that I had not used in the last year, and items that I felt I would not use for another year. Then for the next 7 plus years, it seems like I never threw anything out. Since Dick passed away in September, I have been donating, giving away and selling tons of stuff. I cannot believe how much STUFF I collected. So I really have been doing Spring … [View More]

CANDI BODIES!
by doll4man＠webtv.net 06 Apr '02

Hi ALL, Candi has he same exact body she has had forever it seems, The ONLY thing INtegrity did when they took over production of Candi was they FIXED the STICKY arm problem so very common to the older Candi dolls so that they now move they way they should have all along! TTYS Kevin

All Candi dolls being produced use the original Candi body. I'm getting ready to leave town to do a show tomorrow in Plano, TX (just outside Dallas, TX). If anyone is in the neighborhood, please stop by and say "hi". Everyone else.... have a good weekend!

Hi ALL, Actually I should have clarified that a little more, ALL of the INtegrity dolls have the same bodies--ie ALYSA/JADE/JANAY, and Candi had always had the same body she now has too! ALso the Mikelman Charice doll was the SAME doll as ALYSA, same molds. TTYS Kevin

Re: Lunar/display question

I have deboxed all the dolls in my collection exept for two- a blonde Darci (and that's because I have three blondes already out of the box) and the Billyboy Feelin' Groovy (that's because she's been residing at my mother's house but that and her box situation are about to change since I just asked my my mother to ship her to me). I really think that the market has changed regarding NRFB/MIB/etc even with Barbie, which I have always felt was where most of the hard core NRFBers came from. It … [View More]

Hmmm, definitely food for thought. My kids told me not all that long ago that with the collecting that I do they have become afraid to throw out expired medication bottles, LOL! I told them point taken.....:-) Suzanne http://members.aol.com/SuzW397026/ In a message dated 4/3/2002 11:00:39 PM Central Standard Time, neversink1(a)earthlink.net writes: << I cannot believe how much STUFF I collected.

This has been a really interesting thread. Pat, I, too, would like to encourage you to open just one or two dolls and play with them. I was the same as you are with the "fear factor" of reducing value until about 8 years ago when a special friend who lives near me, that I met through the Internet of all things, got me to take this step and taught me how to finally enjoy my collection. Once you actually get a doll or two released, it is amazing how quickly the "fun factor" kicks in! I … [View More]

The Alysa body is not as busty as the Candi body and never has been, to my knowledge. Alysa is a tad bustier than Barbie but it isn't by much. I can't even think of a doll who is, or was, as busty as Candi has always been. Can anyone else?
