Sorry for cross posting and being OT!

HI all, First off, sorry for cross-posting but I needed to let people know my posting or answering will probably be errandict for awhile, in the next week or so till I find out whats going on with me. I had somethings come up in the last couple of days that prevented me from entering the BMAA this year but that is inconsequential. So I can tell ya all about them later. I have come down with something and not sure what it is, I started feeling sick last Friday and when I got home Friday night I had the worst case of the chills and was shaking like a leaf in strong wind, then felt a little better on Saturday morning but when I got home saturday night from the nursing home I was burning up but not much of a fever, My whole body right now is wracked in pain and I can barely move half the time, and tonight I am having trouble moving my neck and my head pounds. Sorry to sound so whiny about this but its off to the doctors for me tomorrow if they can fit me in and I only hope he doesnt put me in the hospital cause I have way too much to get done and have lots of people depending on me. But we shall see what tomorrow brings! Thanks my friends for listening to my ramblings, my mind is mush tonight. WISH me luck!! TTYS Kevin

Hi Pat, It was a Barbie Collector's Club kit from a year or two ago. The fashion is called "Spotted on the Scene." I bought it off eBay recently and was very pleased with it; one of the nicest I've seen. I love suits, too. Robin Pat Hawkins <jhawkins1320(a)charter.net> wrote:yeah I like this doll too, a lot.

Hi, Robin! When I tried to send you a reply re the new Black Barbie, I got a message back saying the message contained a web bug. Don't know what that is or where it comes from, but maybe you need to check your message. Never saw that before... Melissa

Hi everyone, If you want to see the new doll that Randall and I both recently got, here she is. So far she's not fitting in too well. Even tho she looks great in her native costume, my gals are shallow, so I guess we better get her redressed soon. lol http://www.geocities.com/pa_nz/7.html?1042076260125 Robin --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?

Hi Randall and everyone, Did you say $40?! I've seen that one sell from $99 to $150! Hope you're right on the price and can get it. Well, I did it! I went back to Randall's Toy Store and bought South African Princess Barbie. She is wonderful! What a face. Her screening is neutral, which I love, and she has wonderful short hair that even I won't be able to mess up. I can't wait to get her home to redress. Now to promise myself I won't buy anything else......... yeah, right. Robin Choic4guys(a)aol.com wrote:I hope In The Pink is the correct name. She is the silkstone with short dark hair and the big, light pink ball gown. I think is was made of tulle? Randall --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.

Hi again, Randall, Thanks for clarifying that. I love the BB body. I like the smaller bust, the belly button and slim hips; even the butt has a nice curve (I'm so jealous!). The dress on the Bond doll was sewn on. Grrrrrr..... I cut it off carefully and will sew some snaps on. It is a beautiful dress. I also dislike the way Mattel doesn't make the jewelry removable. Still, I agree with you, they are doing some nice stuff. The male Bond doll is gorgeous, and Tango Ken would have me panting if I was Barbie. Tango Barbie was a pleasant surprise, very appealing, despite the rose in the mouth being permanent. Still, I can use her in my dioramas because she has a fully articulated body and I can pose her. I dont collect Silkies because of the need to limit my rapacious doll appetite, but I have bought a few things and would like to have the lingerie doll. I am rethinking my decision about South African Princess. I think shes a winner. I saunter back over to the doll store tomorrow. Darn, there goes my good resolutions! Hee hee. What is "In the Pink" that you refer to? Thanks. Robin Choic4guys(a)aol.com wrote:Hi Robin, The new body (I think Barbie collectors are using the term BB or belly button body) does not have the waist joint, it is usually used with the new arms which have a couple of separated fingers. This is my favorite of all the Barbie bodies. I think it is so much more realistic than the previous bodies. I have never liked the fit of modern Barbie clothing because, let's face it, something has to be heavily tailored to fit that large of a bust and that tiny of a waistline. The newer body works so much better, IMO. The Shani body appears much like the regular, older style of Barbie body that twists at the waist but the Shani body is slightly slimmer. I love the dress on the Bond doll. Is it removeable? I hate how Mattel sews things on. I have been very "anti-Mattel" for years but I am coming around. I thought Mattel was making a great turnaround with the Silkstone line being so limited but then I heard about "In The Pink" at The Toy Shop for $40something. I don't have much faith in them yet but I will admit I have bought a few things in the last year. Randall --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

OT: black Barbie
by Choic4guys＠aol.com 07 Jan '03

Hi there, It's incredibly rare that I get excited about a Barbie, so I want to share. A friend of mine found me a Princess of South Africa Barbie. I had been looking for a month now ... they sold out quickly around here and I wasn't able to find one. I LOVE this doll. Of course, when she arrived at my house I immediately deboxed her and changed her clothes. She is now wearing a black mini-dress (courtesy Posh Spice) and black pointed toe shoes (courtesy Silkstone Barbie). I knew I would want to redress her in modern fashion rather than her original ethnic ensemble. If you all are into black dolls then you must check her out! She is incredibly and delightfully exotic! The only downside is I was hoping she would be on the new BB body but she is on the Shani body. Oh well, I still think she is great! I hope you are all doing well. Randall

OT FS: Magic Attic
by Choic4guys＠aol.com 07 Jan '03

Hey, I have recently acquired several dolls from the 50s and they, of course, must take priority over the newer dolls. Are any of you interested in buying a Magic Attic Heather (the brunette) doll? She's $45.00 plus shipping. Still in the box. I am also committed to sell of more of my Daisy and Willow dolls (even though I have seriously thinned them out already). Daisy in Trafalgar and Willow in Rock N Roll (both have boxes and are compete and exc.) both need to find new homes. If you are interested please make me a fair offer (although I realize they will probably sell for much less than I paid). I hope to find somebody who will appreciate them. I also have some clothing to fit Magic Attic dolls (made by Just Pretend/Kid Galaxy). Lots of pieces. Inquire if you are seriously interested. Low priced! Blonde Darci nude $15.00 Tuesday Taylor nude $13.00 Superstar Barbie 70s nude $10.00 Please e-mail me if you are interested. Thanks, Randall
