Doll news and wishlist update

The beginning of the year bring alot of toy news, and I have been looking for dolls to add to my wishlist. 

This guy is my first candidate, he is Barbie Jurassic world Owen.

I do not have any ken dolls in my collection, since I like very few ken dolls these days. But I would like to change that. I was considering waiting and see if ken would get a made to move body, but I am starting to think that it is better to give my gals some male company, than to wait for something that might not happend. This guy atleast has elbow, wrist, knee and probally allso ankel joints + synthetic hair rather than molded. His face is great, I love the stubbles, and his serious expression. I am not too fond of his hairstyle, but the color is great and two toned. I allso really like his outfit, it is simple and therefore very usable, but the vest and teh boots gives it its own adventure vibe. 

Barbie hunger games, Mockingjay Peeta.

This guy is not new at all, but if I get Owen, I would not want him to be totally alone with the ladies.

I have considered getting this Peeta doll before, it would have to be this version, because I lik his hair the best, but he is a bit difficult for me to find. 

Barbie Divergent four

I am allso considering him, since he is allso a pretty great looking guy. He has a very similiair coloring to peeta, but their expressions are quite different, so it might be okay for me to have both. He is easier to find than Peeta, so I might actually get him first. 

I was very exited to see another curvy made to move, and this girl is very beautiful with wavy honeyblonde hair and hazel eyes. But I am a bit dissapointed that she has a smile where she shows teeth, since I am not very fond of that. All the latest made to move dolls have had a tooth smile. 

Paola Reina Las amiga, Carol teacher.

This had me really excited! I have been wanting a Paola Reina doll with brown eyes and long straight brown hair with middle part. I had only found one doll that was excatly what I wanted, but she was an older doll, and only got harder to find with time. But this year they are going to realese a doll, who is what I have been looking for. Her hair is not excatly like the first one I found, but I actually think it might be better, I really lik the way her hair is pulled back. Her outfit is allso super cute, one of my currents dolls would love to wear it. 

Udating my wishlist I can see that there are a lot of dolls I would like to get this year, I hope I have the money to atleast get some of them. 

New liv doll - Its my nature Katie

A couple of weeks ago, I received a new doll I bought. Yes I actually bought a new doll! and I was so exited.

Katie was the last doll I was missing, from my favorite Liv doill series: Its my nature.

I was lucky to find her on Ebay, from an european seller, at an good enough price. 

The picture on the front flap of the box is beautiful, and it allmost looks like the doll, I think it is mostley the lips and the earings that look alot different than on the actual doll. 

I love the dolls from the Its my nature series, because they have some interresting outfits, with multiple layers and some nice accessories. Katie here has 5 pices of clothing + shoes, and 5 accessories (If some of them are counted as a pair)

Back of the box

I really like how the box is full of picture showing the dolls doing all shorts of fun things together, accompanied of text telling about their adventures in nature. I used to cut out these pictures, but I never used them for annything, so I threw my cutouts away and stopped cutting up the boxes. 

Katies looks great wearing the full outfit, I like the yellow with the purple. The outfit consist of a bright yellow top, simple jean shorts, a dark grey hoodie with a purple and silver pattern, white and black striped tights, dark blue boots and a purple knit hat. It ias an outfit that work great for fall and spring, or maybe even mild winters. The different pieces of clothing is allso great to mix and match to make new outfits - which I intend to do.

Katie allso comes with a purple twist skateboard, knee and elbnow pads and a purple helmet. I think the twist board seems like a fun accesory, but I don't know which of my dolls will get it. I am actually more exited about the safety gear. 

I am a safety first kind of gal. I am sure that I will get some use for that helmet, since I would like to get my dolls a bike, and the pads can be used by both Liv and Barbie dolls.

The helmet can be tightened with the fabric that mnakes the strap. The pads tightneds with ridges in the plastic, where they are fastened - they each have 3 ridges.

When it comes to accessories, I am allso pretty fond of her purple earrings. It is not eawsy to see that they are shaped like safety pins, but they are, and I think that is pretty cute + I don't have any purple earrings for my dolls. 

While I would have loved it if the tights were yellow or purple, I do think it is nice taght they are neutral, so they can go with alot of different oputfits, I think my dolls will have to share them for now. I am sllso glad that they go past the knees, the tights that My nature Hayden wore, wn'ent above the knee, and I did not like that.

While I like the simple jean shorts, they don't actually fit properlly, I love Liv doll pants and shorts, and its a shame when they don't fit. Luckily they don't fall down, so a long top or shirt, will hide this issue. 

Finally a closer look at the dolls beautiful face. She has peachy pink lips, and simple brown eye makeup, which gives her a natural look that I really like. While I think the emerald green eyes are pretty, I don't think that they look very natural, therefore I try not to use dolls with these eyes. I don't have a plan for her currently, but I hope that she might get a charcater to play soem day, and then I might change her eyes. 

Leia got the yellow top and shorts, for a elegant and fresh summer look. 

The hat, hoodie and boots went to Emily, so she can be ready for the cold autumn winds. She may have to give som,e of it up, if someone else wants it, but for now I though it suited her. This picture shows the pattern on teh hoodie a bit better, and reminds me that I need to repaint Emilys lips again.

Shina got the earrings, since purple is totally her color, they m,atch her beautiful dress, and I think she would like the safety pin design.

While I was so exited to get this doll, I started to ahve my doubht about her, since I didn't seem interested in taking pictures of her or play with her - I yet again had teh thought that I don't really apreciate my dolls. But when I did start taking pictures, I started to feel inspired, and I began to dress and play with some fo my liv dolls, which made me quite happy. This month I am not going to buy annything new for my dolls, but I started looking into what to buy next month, it is my birthday that month so I might buy more than just one thing - if my bank accout is not suffering.
