go here http://www.dollsmagazine-digital.com/dolls/200902/ & be able to read some of Feb. issue of Dolls mag. Look at the top line above the cover pic. that appears & see 'contents,' 'pages' etc. go to 'pages' & when it pops up then click on each small page to make it large enough to read, see Fashion Royalty, Jason Wu's dolls, a doll called Mixie & read about the Mattel /Bratz law suit . Then go to archives & see the previous Xmas issue , go to 'pages '& in this one you'll see that Horseman is coming out with a 16 in doll ( like Tonners & Genes) that Annette Himstedt is retiring so hang on to her dolls if you have them & other stuff in both issues Pat Hawkins

Hi Mary W, Thank you so much for posting your picture of the Randall Craig exclusive to Candi Chat. I just saw the pic, because the Candi Chat e-mail comes to my old e-mail address, which I only check every few weeks. Don't know how to change it to come to my new address, and I figured the list hardly ever gets mail anyway. I have most of the early FRs too, and most of all the rest. The last couple years (since the taller bodies), I've only been buying the ones I really like, which probably is more than half. Maybe we FR collectors are just getting over it all, the novelty has worn off, and we just are not wowed like we once were?

Hi Melissa, I think you are right about the other outfit.I had totally forgotten about that! My girls really love Randall Craig fashions. I am so bummed I missed that recent silver/gray Midnight Moonlight (or something like that) dress. Sigh. I love the articulated body.it's mainly the face paint on some of the new ones I am not so wild about. I love their original faces, although there are many new ones I like too. Just some of them in this past year are different. I don't know if it's the 'airbrushing' or just the styling. Some of the eyes seem 'squinty' and some of the make up is a little overdone. And don't get me wrong.I am a big fan of a lot of make up, it's just odd on some of the newer dolls. I bought a few of the extra articulated bodies and will pick a few of my favorite older girls to get them. I am just worried about breaking the neck on the original body.it's already happened once to me. They have become very brittle with age and that is just too bad.

Bettie Page

Do you remember Bettie Paige , the pin up girl from the 50's...some of the Candi dolls were fashioned after her for a short time, was in in the 90's? She just died at age 85 of a heart attack. As I remember, she wasn't all that aware of what an impact she'd made on the pin up industry at first ( was even a Playboy centerfold in their early days) & never thought her posing was a big deal. .....got religion in later life & there was brief era when interest in her was revived around the 90's. oh , here's a news article about her & pic. , she was cute Pat Hawkins http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28185814 whoops, I looked her up on the net, be careful of some of the sites you go to ...downright porn

I meant to say Silvana not Silvano. ( We have a friend, male, here named Silvano) Did you see the change in Suzanne's Doll Dreams site from Melissa Bradford? Speak of the devil. Jim Faraone just posted on Fashion Royalty group saying that Suzanne has a new website & email. Here they are: Suzanne(a)ddctonline.com is her email. http://www.ddctonline.com is her website. Melissa :o) I just went to your website & forgot how wonderful it was, I always like the male dolls... so liked the pics. of all of them Pat Hawkins

Hi Elizabeth, I just bookmarked your website. I'm a huge fan of Dawn Dolls and Tiffany Taylor. Haven't been collecting them in awhile, but would love to find the time to do it again :-) Will look at all your fashions later on :-) Diane ----- Original Message ----- From: <candichat-owner(a)dolls.de> To: <candichat(a)dolls.de> Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2008 9:20 PM Subject: [CandiChat]: daily digest (#626) > daily digest > > This is Digest Volume 1 : Issue 626 : Digest Style "mime" > Below is a summary of all the messages, showing the subject of each post > and who posted it.

Hi Everyone :-) I'm still here too. I now collect the Fashion Royalty and other various dolls from the Integrity Line. Still have my Candi Girls :-) Am looking forward to tomorrow so I can place an order for a couple of the new Avant Guards dolls. Have been waiting for them since I first heard about them :-) Take care everyone :-) Diane ----- Original Message ----- From: <candichat-owner(a)dolls.de> To: <candichat(a)dolls.de> Sent: Sunday, November 09, 2008 9:20 PM Subject: [CandiChat]: daily digest (#623) > daily digest > > This is Digest Volume 1 : Issue 623 : Digest Style "mime" > Below is a summary of all the messages, showing the subject of each post > and who posted it.
