Have you ever lost something related to dolls?

I lost the bathing suit for a maddie mod, which I had carefully wrapped up, but I looked in the box, and I can't find it. I have too much doll clothes, so now I got some more maddie mod clothes, I started a separate box for Maddie Mod, so now I won't lose it anymore. But, I can't find it again. I used to lose shoes more until I got some bead boxes from joann's, to keep them sorted. I can't believe a lost expensive Barbie Shoes like the open toes they sold with the repos. I have a bunch of… Read More

10 Steffie-faces! Yay!

Yesterday I received my tenth Steffie-face doll by Mattel. It was Cool Times Midge.

The first was of course Ultra Hair Whitney.

And now I'm waiting for the eleventh......

90's Barbies have really bad hair

I bought a bunch of 90's Barbies at a thrift store for kids to play with, but I did not try to wash and comb the tangled hair. If you even touch the hair it will tangle at once, and brushing it and combing it will cause damage and hair lose. So one of them I decided to comb out when wet and it really messed up my hand. The plastic brush got bent and my hand is killing me from trying to do that. The other dolls I am not even going to try to untangle because I will only ruin my hands and as soon… Read More

Hello!

Hi there!

 

What a neat place! I'm glad I stumbled upon it!

 

Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself!  I'm Ashley.  I collect a whole slew of dolls, but try to focus mostly on Skipper (Barbie's sister), Barbie and all of her various bands, and BJD's.  Like I said before, I am a huge collector, so those three are just a handful of what I have collections of! One day, I dream of having a house with a room dedicated to my collections.  Can you imagine?  A doll…

Charming Beauty Doll Set made by Meibaoer

You may want to consider taking your next vacation in San Francisco. Mission street in San Francisco is home to stores where you can find the strangest clones. If you only shop Toys R US you will only find the basic Mattels and other major brands. These far out clones are only found in odd places, but they may be harmful to children due to toxic plastic, but since I am not going to put them in my mouth. I bought this set because the doll has blue hair, and I like blue haired dolls. I have not… Read More

blythe fan club in the san francisco bay area

I went to a Blythe fan club meeting today in san Francisco. You can find them on the meet up site if you want to come. I don't have any blythe dolls, but I saw at least three I wanted, but some of those had customized options, that would make them even more expensive. They are good quality solid dolls. I am more addicted to buying misfit clones on ebay, because I can get a fix for only a few dollars. When the dolls cost more than 100 dollars, that means I can only have one of two. The size of… Read More

A Gay Doll For Kids? The big lies of the press...

It's deaf night in my city now so I'll just quote my own post from the DOLLS website that was dedicated to Andy Mills doll from Robert Tonner Doll Company.

There's a big buzz in Russian news now. And it's not about a gay doll from Robert Tonner. It's about a gay Andy Mills doll from MATTEL!! A toy gay doll for kids was somehow invented by Russian journalists, and now hundreds of men and women are moaning online: "how could they?! WHO are they making our kids play…

Doll Photography

I love to photography dolls. I am getting a new camera because my old cheap cannon died. I keep my dolls stored, and if I want to look at them, I use the photos on my computer instead of having to take them out of the storage boxes. I would like to hear your comments on doll photography. What camera do you use? Lighting? Backgrounds?

My DATE with SAGE...

My Destiny with Sage

I awoke as if yesterday were a total DREAM soon to realize it was not. When we (Sage and I) got home last night after leaving your beautiful home, I ended up talking with my partner all night about what we had discussed and how we hope to become fast friends since our recent connection on Ebay. He knowing how much such a doll costs and I using the old "It's my birthday" ploy as a reason for such an extravagant purchase.

With Sage all boxed…

This will be my first topic started discussion

This will be my first topic started discussion so I will get to the point. Sitting in front of my PC all day and Iphone EBay apps watching dolls bought, bid, and sold only causing me to turn my mood into one of envy and jealousy. With that said, I searched online for Price guides for my Modern Barbie collection and was excited to see my…
