Alyrenee's Copious Spare Time

The newest offerings are up and for me, it is a bit of a mixed bag.  Now mostly that is because my particular tastes have either changed or rather, I am forcing my tastes to be my mindful of my lack of space and money.     The price points on this lineup are hard swallow...but we knew that was happening.  Still, it is hard not to think of the work Integrity did with Tullabelle and be a little less than enthused when you see $199 on a doll that does not even have a purse or a necklace.  Le sigh. Here are my picks and complaints.... Classic Elegance Tyler -gorgeous haircolor and style on the original Tyler mold.  The dress has an interesting sweetheart neckline combined with an empire waist and a cascading skirt in what looks like velvet.  She reminded me a bit of Sargeant's Madame X. Enticing Outfit - I like this Antoinette outfit with its nice color and fun mix of textures. Summer Swing  - I bet this one sells out in a jiffy....

  My first event of the day was Amazonia.  I made a whole outfit for it...photos to come later.  The centerpiece was a killer 22" American Model.  I bought her.  She is fabulous.  The event doll was the same outfit on the 16" heroic body.  Both dolls came with two sets of hands.  I was also pleased to know that the Nu Mood hands do work on the Heroic body.  I think I will be getting another 16 Wonder Woman tomorrow to use for a Modern Wonder Woman.  This is a new sculpt as well called "Diana".  I do love the old one so very much...but this new one is nice too.  She looks a lot like Linda Carter actually.  I was slightly bummed that they did the same outfit on both dolls....but they are cool.  Now to get the other Wonder Woman American Model.  Must save pennies. Flights of Fancy Dinner....lots of over the top and colorful bird themed dolls on antoinette bodies.  Daphne/Toucan, Antoinette/Cardinal and Par...

Check it out. Precarious Line The sculpt reminds me a bit of the Chicago/Suzette face...also applies lashes which I have no problem with. Very fashion forward clothes with interesting shapes and lots of details.  Pricey though.  There is no story info for this yet... Intriguing -festive blue hair and kick ass blue suede heal-less shoes. Totally want those shoes. Party Girl - again awesome shoes and fantastic silver tights. Anything Goes - looks like a fabulous outfit for Cat Woman....I love it. Swing Time - very chic.  I love it. Simon Rouge is back on the 13" body which means more fun clothes for those girls coming out.  Also the Suzette sculpt on the 13" body...which looks good!  Maybe we will see Kitty Collier too? Deanna Denton went to weight watchers evidently and she is now on the 16" curvaceous body.  I might have to steal the Red Hot Deanna Outfit for for supergirls.... Cami & Jon have a new dolls and outfits.  Steamfunk C...
