Winx Club Doll information, anyone, please?
« on: February 23, 2015, 03:05:09 PM »
I was given a thrift store Winx doll with the most horrible hair I've ever seen and while I didn't much like the doll's lack of articulation in the arms, I figured I'd at least see if I could learn something about her and try to restore her hair since she was bought for me. Yet, no matter how much I search I keep finding dolls that have moving elbows and wrists, so I'm confused at what version of the doll I have.

Here she is, I think its the character Flora, after a shampoo and conditioning. The doll itself is very clean and free of blemishes, really just the hair is atrocious.

I'm fairly sure this dress isn't what she originally came in, but I figured I 'd add it anyway just in case.


Any help in identifying this doll is appreciated. What I'd really like is a photo of what her hair is supposed to look like so I can try and replicate it once I've got it all detangled. Thanks ahead of time!  :worshippy:

I'm thinking she is the everyday collection Flora. Her hair is really long. I noticed while looking for her that the promo doll has elbow joints but the actually doll doesn't have those.

I agree, I'm very sure that's an Everyday Flora doll from Jakks Pacific. I don't have mine on hand, but it definitely looks like her mold. The basic Jakks Pacific Winx dolls didn't have elbow articulation, while the "deluxe" dolls (fairy forms, more accessories, etc) had more articulation. The Jakks Winx hair is generally pretty bad, unfortunately (I try not to really brush style the curlier hairstyles short of keeping them from getting nappier). That outfit definitely isn't original to the doll, but I'm unsure where it came from. Maybe it was homemade?

I'm pretty sure the outfit isn't homemade, it's really heavy duty though the belt is all stretched out. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction! Hopefully I can dig a bit further now.  :biggrin:

That might be a bratz dress. Not sure though.
