Well, I received my Lovey AG right before Xmas, and Dionysis will be coming to live with me (and her AG Sistahs) after the first of the year.  

Nice haul, Andy!   Which Ru did you get?

From my daughter I got DOTW India, Barbie for president (blonde), and a blonde fashionista. From hubby I got Gala gown silky and fusia fun France, from my son I got monster high Jinnah fire long.

I had a very Barbie Christmas....I'm very lucky and very fortunate to have so many gifts my family....they inspire my doll collecting and treat me so affectionately and lovingly with their Barbie inspired gifts....I hope everyone had a wonderful wonderful holiday...I'm very blessed. Iam very happy to be here. Happy New Year!

WOW lisa!!! sounds like you had quite the doll haul this year! i am a little jealous, especially for the dotw india barbie! she is totally on my want list!

hahaha!  Same one that I have, Andy!  I've considered buying Foxy Lady (with the yellow full-length fur coat) but because she's such a rarity, the $140 price tag has scared me off more than once.

Hey, Lisa...are you a member of Doll Divas as well?    GIRL!  You SCORED this Christmas!!  I raised the bar a little too high for my fam this year...everybody blanches at the prices of Avantguards and Sybarites, so I end up buying for myself.  Ah, well...nobody knows what I want for xmas as well as I do.

i know right? i try to keep a pretty strict budget when it comes to doll purchases,  my hobby started with collecting stuff specifically for my favorite doll morgan (and let me tell you, that betch has shoes, clothes and gowns like none other...in addition to her 2 or 3 homes, cars, and vintage carrying cases).  but i'm trying to branch out and get some collectible dolls also......why limit oneself? lol!

Hi Deb! Yes I'm more of a lurker there! I have a few fashion royalty s in my collection! I think last count was 13. Not a lot! They're ARE pricey. That's primarily why I went back to Barbie. Especially since their pivotal s seem to be getting better for body switches lol! My fashion royalty hoy grail that I will probably never get is style mantra Eden! Love her!!! Big redheaded doll fan as I am redheaded myself lol! I am also on in the pink love it there!!! I found out about here purely by coincidence and I'm glad I did! I understand about the price tags for ur wish list and presents for sure! I an such a doll hoardette I would have to get a second mortgage to get all the dolls I want lol! Hugs

Lisa, Andy and Deb-- sounds like you all got some nice dolly gifts. Simon, sorry Santa was late with your Jem, you know how the holiday traffic is!

I didn't actually have any dolls on my wish list this year because I'm at that sad point where the cabinets are quite full and I either have to thin down the collection or get another new cabinet! However, being a collector, I couldn't resist picking up a few bargains, so on Christmas morning I did have 3 new dollies that I chose myself from a booth at our local annual Red Cross Fair the week before. They are all clone dolls-- 2 Barbie clones and a Jenny clone (my first), but they have nice eyes and hair and came in cheap but nice OOAK gowns. I should photograph them.
