Dear CandiChatters,
Do you all recall way far back there was the announcement of new line of glamour doll with larger proportions than the regular hour-glass-shaped dolls? There had been a lot of discussion on this List about the dolls because of the dolls' more realistic proportions to many of today's women.
Please take another look at the dolls because I think they are lovely. I'm still not certain how the sculpts on the feet got resolved. That was a concern for the creators a couple of years ago and unfortunately, the pics on the website don't show the feet now. At the time, the feet didn't fit delicately into a shoe. Not that feet are a big deal. Afterall, it's the faces of the dolls that I find very appealing. And furthermore, feet on a larger body don't always look like the foot of a waifish Chinese Empress, anyway. If the pics are any indication, I find the facial sculpts and screenings to also be very realistic of women's expressions. And the story line of the dolls is a positive one, too.
It's exciting to consider who and what these dolls represent and I would love to see these dolls take off. It's a bold concept these designers are promoting, but one that's time should be here. It seems to me that women, in general, are not built with ant-like bodies and it's about time dolls be made to reflect there's more to a woman's beauty than an hour-glass figure in a size 2 gown. Eesh, that bugs me...
Also, the original sculptress for the dolls was the same lady who did the Star Wars dolls from that last 1999(?) episode (I didn't follow Star Wars from the beginning so I wouldn't know now). But I do not know if the project continued with that sculptress. Regards, pat Brown

Dear Friends,
Some time ago you inquired about our Big Beautiful Dolls. It gives us great pleasure to let you know that the dolls are finally completed and they will be arriving on January 25, 2002.
It has been a long struggle for us. There was a time when we thought that we could not make this happen, but I am glad to say that Dasia, Dena and Dawn can finally be a part of your collection. They have been produced in a limited edition, so they won't be available for long!
Many of you have stayed in contact with us over the past two years and yes it has been two long years and we are really grateful for your loyalty.
We received many letters from plus-size women who were so happy that there is now a doll that represents them. We also received many emails from doll lovers everywhere. We just want to say thank you to all of you. These letters are what kept us going. We knew that we were doing something good.
We have great plans for Big Beautiful Dolls, Inc. If you remember, the dolls come with their own unique story line which you can read on our website or in our soon to be published news-mag, 3D.
We will be introducing three new dolls this year, so we have our hands full. If you would like to find out more about what's going on with us, or to place an order, we have updated our website and you can visit us at www.bigbeautifuldolls.com Once again thank you for your support. Sincerely, Audrey & Georgette

A bit pricey, but they do have beautiful faces... Melissa

Thanks, Pat, they're fabulous. If they come with clothes, I can see myself getting one of these. Robin Pat Brown nqsqurtz@staffnet.com wrote: Dear CandiChatters,

That's a good point. I don't know if they come with a separate collection of outfits, either. It would make huge difference for future collecting if they did. Afterall, plus size clothes that fit human women is hard enough--it's likely to be next to impossible to find clothes for a 12" plus-size doll. Not even poor ole Rosie O'Donnell got a line of fashions. I hope the BBD get their own line. pat ----- Original Message ----- From: Robin To: candichat@dolls.de Sent: Tuesday, January 29, 2002 8:50 PM Subject: Re: OT: BIG BEAUTIFUL DOLLS
