Off Topic / Re: Collectibles: What Has Shelf Priority?
« on: September 23, 2014, 08:02:48 PM »
Of my many collections (the ones that aren't packed and waiting for me to move), my Windstone Editions have shelf priority.   They are heavy, but fragile, and I have a few that are either no longer being produced, or are OOAK.

Sorry for the poor pictures, but here is a rehaired Posey I did.

The top layer of her hair is stripes of DH Tea Rose and Water Nixie, and she has a solid under-layer of Envy

Here is a picture of her stripes, which are more even then they look, just the curve of her neck makes the lower ones look shorter in width.

Here is a WIP picture of the Envy layer.

She was a pain in the butt to rehair.   Her holes were unevenly spaced, the line of plugs I put the Envy in is not straight down her neck, and her holes on one side were so close together they split down her head quite a ways.   That was fun, trying to keep the hair from shifting holes.

I could back when I was a kid, before I had braces.   Haven't been able to whistle since.

Thank you, Diamond and Kkat!

Morning started out on the wrong foot, but things went okay at work (cake and a new travel mug helped).

I love Velvet Bow... I am rather fond of her silvery grey color.

The Dollhouse / Re: Pinkie Cooper - New doll line!

I saw these girls the other day at Fred Meyer, they are soooo cute!   Well, it was actually just the three deluxe versions of Pinkie Cooper.   I was sorely tempted, but I had already grabbed Dreamhouse Midge and Raquelle, and wasn't about to put them back down.   I am a man of limited funds, and the Mattel dolls were cheaper (plus MIDGE).   Pinkie can wait till she goes on sale, lol.

The Dollhouse / Re: Novi stars?

I think that is what sold me on them.  If they had normal painted on eyes like every other doll I would have been able to walk away even with the $5 price tag. 

Does the beach Una have water in her legs or is it just her first version that does?
Just the first version has the "snow-globe" type legs.  The beach dolls all have solid legs and the new joints (although I think they still have the old style stands?)

The Orbit Beach girls don't come with stands.   However, they stand up relatively well without them.  Only Una has fallen off my shelf (Oh, Una, you are just so unstable, both versions of you!) and I suspect Ali would be too, if I hadn't done something with that major mass of messy hair.

I found Sila at Walmart, so ended up not having to order her from Amazon, whoot!   My one gripe with her is that MGA did not make a wig specifically designed for her head.   It is pretty much the same as the Bratz wigs, and falls off her pointy head if you move her at all.   I haven't released original Mae from her plastic prison, but I suspect from the complaints I have seen in a few places, that her wig is also not designed around her head shape.   Oh well, both are cute even if their wigs fall off their domes.

Tea... tea... tea.


And plenty of water, too.   But I love tea.

Vera is another one I really want... I have a thing for odd number of eyes, lol.   

Oh, and I now own more Novis... I caught the clearance at Target, and snagged original Alie Lectric, Mae Tallick, and Ari Roma, plus all four Orbit Beach girls, and Tula Toned.   

Thanks for the link to Sila, Galactica, I might just have to break down and buy her through Amazon.

I agree, super hard choice to narrow down just three.   I picked Statler and Waldorf, Animal, and Beaker.

Glory's (and maybe Twilight's [the pink G1 unicorn]) symbol, on the outer portion of my upper thigh.  Actually, it is something I was thinking about getting for real, just have to think a bit longer on it, gather the money, and shop around at the local tattoo parlors.
