Odds & Ends & Pics

Odds & Ends & Pics

So I feel like I’ve been MIA for awhile and that’s partly because it’s always a little slower with doll inundations at the beginning of the year and partly because I have become a slave to studying.  I had to sell a few dolls a week or so ago to come up with $550 for my acupuncture board exam next month (yikes!).  So I have been dedicating about 5 hours a day to studying the past few weeks.  I will be VERY glad once the exam is over (and I pass of course!).  Also got my shipping notice for my DG’s to arrive next week – yay! I’m excited to see them.  I also picked up a NF body for Bergdorf Poppy yesterday and I think I’ll be stealing Dayle’s body for SC Poppy.  So...

Stardoll at Barbie Collector Online

Stardoll at Barbie Collector Online

I’ve been on the search for these dolls at my local stores since seeing Nevraforever’s photos of Poppy and Darla wearing these fashions. I’m always on the lookout for low priced options for my girls and these work.  So I was totally happy to see that barbie collector is offering them for sale online here: http://www.barbiecollector.com/shop/browse/term/1874  I was even able to pick up 1 for 99 cents because I still had my $20 quarter reward – yay!  I must admit that being in the Barbie Fan club this year has gotten me some great deals on clothing to steal for my FR’s and I’ll definitely be joining next year...

Comic Con Dolls Update

So first I wanted to share pics of the Carol Ferris Barbie.  I ordered some for a few friends, so I used theirs in the photoshoot. Next up is the 2 versions of the tote bag that came with Ghoulia.

Carol Ferris Barbie

Carol Ferris Barbie

So it seems we’re getting our first look at an exclusive Mattel doll that will be sold at San Diego Comic Con this July.  She’s Carol Ferris, the character played by Blake Lively in the upcoming Green Lantern movie starring Ryan Reynolds.  Carol Ferris, who runs her father’s aerospace company, hires cocky test pilot Hal Jordan (Reynolds), who later becomes the intergalactic policeman, The Green Lantern. In the comics, the romance became complicated when an alien race bestowed her the power of a crystal called the Star Sapphire. It’ll be interesting for me as a comic book fan to see if they alter the storyline at all.  On a side note, my personal guilty pleasure is the CW show Gossip Girl,...
