Absence Make You Have More Followers

Exciting! I have new followers. And all I had to do was be a total downer and run away from the blogosphere.

You know, sometimes there's a doll that you really don't like and then suddenly, you're in love.

My husband, a lover of all things that he thinks will mature in value (baseball cards, records, obscure "action figures") had a couple of dolls that he felt the need to give to me. He knew they would have a better life in my hands.

One of which was Hasbro's Miss Fear.
I really didn't like her. Her weapons were awesome and I really appreciated the cigarette holder but her clothes didn't fit well, her hair was insane and she didn't look anything like the hot cartoon on the box. Her makeup was terrible, her "Asian" eyes were just ridiculous.

So she ended up being a bit character in things. She played a bodyguard or a bouncer. She was so beefy that I never let her be a "lady".


I guess Ms. Fear's life turned around when my husband got me Dynamite Girls Spooky Sooki:

I absolutely loved Sooki. I mean, she was a goth girl! But she was also a teenager, so I had to give her a mother. Ms Fear (who I once gave a name but forgot it) was perfect. She wasn't too cute or fashionable to have a teenager daughter. And she looked mean enough to be a terrible mother and therefore would have a daughter who was a rebellious teen.

Since then, my love and respect for Ms. Fear has deepened. Now the Fears are kind of like the Carringtons of my doll world. (The Fears, minus Dani, who was only recently discovered to be a Fear:)


And once in a while Ms. Fear can really deliver a photo:


I still wouldn't cross her if I were you.

Anyone want to name Ms. Fear? It has to be Japanese. The other fears are Miho, Aoki, Yumi and Sooki.

smooches,
