HI All, Boy have I been a bad girl recently. The mail box has been flooded with dolls. I have recently gotten Goddess of the Artic ( at Amazon for $69.95!) Very pretty doll and at that price well worth it. I think I would have been really peaved if I had spent the $200 retail on her, as I was totally not amused by the beads being plastic on the fringe. Sheesh, crystal is NOT that expensive. Yesterday I just got my Chic Escape from Suzanne. Absolutely adorable doll. Great little accessories, and she is just so pretty. The shoes are the just the cutest thing. I can hardly wait to redress this one. Hey, she might look incredible in our upcoming Candichat fashion! Can't wait to see the pics of that. Got several dolls on clearance at Walmart. Including a King Kong one. She has really cute face paint. I wish she had been just a little cheaper. I would have bought two. One to debox and play with as well, but this is one of the few dolls that I think needs to stay in the box, as it is so well done. After all the whining about our Walmart NOT caring the Integrity line, low and behold some showed up there. I picked up the Embassy ball Alyssa to have one of the new face molds. She looks fairly pretty, and she was only $6.97. I hope they will carry more of the play line in the future. Had to go and find the Target Halloween dolls and get the Tommy in that set. Those little dolls are so cute, and I get the boy one every year in honor of my little Halloween " monster" Now for the vintage goodies! ( told you I have been bad!) Found a stunning vintage Babs dress, Evening Enchanment at our Savers for $2.00! This dress is red chiffon with mirabou trim, and is almost impossible to find, and this one was in wonderful condition. My friend Deb practically had to revive me from the heart attack expierienced when I saw it. Found a P.J head at a garage sale this weekend for $3.00 and best of all, my dear mother in law showed up here yesterday with a darling little TnT Barbie doll that she had found at a garage sale for $1.00 She was so pround of herself for finally finding something good, that I think she was even happier than I was! LOL She also brought me the cutest little set of vintage Tammy underwear that she got at the same sale for a quarter. All this, and our local doll shop closing, so I have been getting this and that there. Got a couple of Gene fashions, and a bunch of miniature Teddy bears. She had things 60% off, so it was hard to resist. I am going to be on a budget for a little while. LOL Hope I didn't bore you to tears, but no one around here understands why I am having so much fun. LOL

Sounds great, Kathy! Glad you're having fun... My Walmart still has a blank shelf where the Integrity sign is & my Target still has a blank shelf where the Halloween Kellys go. Wish they'd get them in... Can't wait to get this year's Halloween Tommy as I sewed a great Dragon costume for my son about 3 years ago & this will be a good reminder. Melissa

That didn't produce tears of boredom, Kathy, but it did produce a few tears of happiness thinking about all your heavenly goodies. What a wonderful windfall you had. Is the Evening Enchantment dress you mentioned the red one with the flames on it and feathers?
I haven't bought many dollies lately, but did send away to Hong Kong for some Obitsu dolls. They just arrived today and the glamour model blew me away - her chest, which is very large, is soft. Soft! Can you imagine that? I can't wait to see what she looks like in clothes (I think I have that Candi bondage outfit from Mikelman around somewhere. lol).
I also found some wonderful accessories at a flea market while I was vacationing in Canada last month. One item was a vintage stereo for the Sindy doll. It still had the headphones, records, and 8-track tapes. I nearly choked trying to suppress my excitement while approaching the stall owner to ask price, then almost fainted when she said only wanted $5 for it (Canadian $5!). I was a very happy gal.
Well, that's it for me. Hope everyone is having a lovely dolly summer. Robin

Hi Robin, No flames, just feathers on the dress. I have it on my number 3 and need to take pics. Will post when I do. I want to see your new dolls too. Any pics of these Obitsu dolls? Congrats on the Sindy item as well. Those things look really nice. I have only seen pics of some of the Sindy things, as the chances of them showing up around here are nil. Just gotta love the garage sales and flea markets.
