My Surprise! Photo heavy.

Yay, she's here!



I'm sad to say that I'm disappointed. Don't get me wrong. She's as gorgeous as I imagined and has a naughty sort of innocence that I hoped for but didn't expect.

BUUUT:

Take a look at the wings. Total hot glue mess. I can't even figure out how they attach to her.
The cross on my coffin purse is totally scratched up:


The spiked bracelets? Are you kidding? My Liv doll spiked bracelet is better:

You know for the money, these boots should have been leather-like. Even the Pop Life girls have leatherish boots:



Like I said, no idea how to work the stand. There's a half moon piece and a stick right? So I stick the crescent on the stick and this is what it looks like:


And her two tops, a net black top and a red bustier have velcro closures! How dare you! A $150 doll?

Oh and when you hold her by the lower leg, she pulls a Matrix:


But still all in all, I love her and I'm glad I didn't wait for a nude figure to appear on Ebay. I would have missed out on that cute skirt.

I can't wait to redress her and give her a proper photoshoot!

smooches,
dani

    OMG, I would be disappointed too. That's EXACTLY what happens to my Jasper when I hold her by her lower legs..."Trinity, Help!" LOL...Her right wrist also doesn't "click" all the way in. It seems snug but it's still a disappointment. But I keep telling myself I only paid $20 for her and she is beautiful, so I put her on a LIV body and I'm actually happier.

    Congrats though, she is beautiful.

    Thanks! Maybe she'll get a new body one day. My Jasper's hands were stained too. I really like to look at a doll in person before buying. I wish I lived near some distributors!

    Congrats on getting Simi!! I knew she was bound to be your surprise (you drooled soooooo much over her it was a foregone conclusion!!)

    Hope you have fun working her over. And yea, Integrity's value for money/detail for the higher priced dolls is slipping IMO

Zee Gypsies!

By
I'm home today, the kids are at school (half day), so I decided to take some pictures with my little window of time. I rarely show the gypsies and one of you guys requested it, so here they are! "Hello, I am Carmen Kirpachi. Welcome to our home." "This is my husband Milosh." "Hallo."  "This is my brother, Franco. While his gaje girlfriend Josephine is in Paris, he's spending a lot more time with us." "Excuse me, I have to put some more wood in the stove so I can get dinner started." "My goat stew is Milosh's favorite but we need to get the pot hot first." "This is my living area, also known as Franco's bedroom. But we don't mind. The Romany love having family around." "Milosh says I drive like a fugitive so he doesn't let me drive very often." "But sometimes I put a glamour on him and he forgets how much he hates my driving." ...

The Vinyls Hold Auditions

By
It's been a while since you've seen the Vinyls. They were supposed to perform at the Grandville Summer Festival but I got lazy. The Vinyls did perform in Grandville park that one time: Twilight Edward was the lead singer but his paleness has limited my body options and that makeup I put on him to darken him up will not hold up under the new camera, so he's out. Still, seedy, dangerous Grandville needs its band. So they held auditions for a few Grandvillians who were interested. First up, Marie. She and Zeke had great guitar chemistry. They never knew Blake had such a good singing voice. He brought a real trip hop element to their ensemble. His singing sounds like he's reciting a poem. And then came Raj Nirvana, belting it out and just feelin' it, man. The Vinyls felt really embarrassed for him. "I really like Marie," Aragorn urges. Bailey protests, "You just want to bone her." "Well duh." "Ma...

Introducing Nymeria and the Alurium Vaccarra

By
Ever have a couple of days off Facebook and though you wonder what happened to your friends over the long weekend, you can help feeling a little peaceful? That's how I feel in my week of staying off the blogs and forums and various sites. But I missed a lot! So many cool posts! It's going to take a while to dig myself out. One must wonder, did my creative spurt have something to do with not being all over the web looking at what everyone else is doing? Anyway let's get to it. So on my birthday, my three Stardolls arrived! Aside from the outfit, that Paris one was not cute. I dunno, she's too boring looking. But Iris was THRILLED that she got a new, dressed doll. Well for a few minutes anyway. Did you know that they can't bend their legs? Like they can't sit down? Terrible. Anyway, the other two were great! Inspiring. Meet Valentina. A Columbiana who restores classic cars. She was very happy with a Liv body. She might be Nadia's next girlfriend, w...
