Thanks for the info, Suzanne! Melissa
The Toy Soldier will not be done this year. The Manhattan Magic line has been renamed to Manhattan Moods and is the collection that is to contain
the
Wedding at St. Pat's and 5th Ave. Fortuny dolls. It was hoped that at
least
the 5th Ave. Fortuny doll from the line could be brought in by the end of
the
year but that is now up in the air. I also understand that there isn't a final decision yet on whether the Wedding at St. Pat's doll will be done after all. Apparently the dress is rather complicated for mass production and unless Jason comes up with a pattern he feels will live up to what was expected by collectors that can be done reasonably, her fate returns to "undecided" at the moment. Unless something changes, I don't think we
will
see Manhattan Moods until early 2002. No firm estimated release date is
yet
available.
