Alyrenee's Copious Spare Time

Not sure about this one.  I just don't think I have the mental bandwidth to deal with another body type at this point in time.  I think it is an interesting concept and I might be tempted by it later...but for now I am resisting. Lots of folks seem excited that this doll will be able to wear the older shoes and possibly Barbie doll shoes.
