New Tonner Doll preview

Jupiter Ascending 

Tonner Doll Company has previewed several new dolls today. It looks like there are more dolls arriving, and several new lines have been announced. I'm noticing a few price increases with this release. You can preorder dolls from the collection from your favorite dealer, and see the complete release on Tonner's website here.

In addition to the dolls released today, more dolls are coming soon, which include the brand new Marley Wentworth collection, Patsy and Patsyette, American Models, a new DC Star category, more Wizard of Oz items, Sindy, and Deja Vu.

Above, from the new collection Jupiter Ascending, is the name sake doll. She uses a new sculpt, modeled after Mila Kunis, with green eyes and mink rooted hair. She is limited to 300 and retails for $239.99. She's scheduled to arrive February 2. Two other dolls have also been announced: Jupiter Jones (LE300 $199.99), which uses the same sculpt, in stock now, and Caine, LE300 $189.99. No photo of Caine is available yet, but he will use a new Channing Tatum sculpt on the 17" Matt O'Neill body.

Perfectly Pink

A single new Tiny Kitty doll, Perfectly Pink, is scheduled to arrive February 26, retail $149.99, LE500.

Golden Princess

There have been more additions to the Diana Prince collection, as well. All of these dolls use the Tyler 2.0 sculpt on the 16" Fit body. A new basic doll, Diana Basic, has wigged brunette hair and green eyes, retails for $99.99 as an open edition, arriving February 26. Three new dressed dolls have also been announced. Golden Princess, shown above, retails for $179.99 and is in stock, limited to 500. Diana is a wigged platinum doll, arriving February 2, retail $189.99. Special Agent Diana, with rooted black hair, also retails for $189.99 and is arriving February 26. Two new outfits are in stock: Beauty and Strength (LE300 $94.99) and Winter Princess (LE300 $99.99). The final outfit, Stars & Stripes (LE300 $109.99), is scheduled to arrive on February 26.

Evening Evil

One additional doll has been added to the Wizard of Oz collection, LE125 retail $209.99. Evening Evil uses the Wicked Witch sculpt on the 19" Wilde Imagination Evangeline body. I really love her outfit. She is scheduled to arrive February 26.

I'll Never Be Hungry Again

Two Vivien Leigh dolls have been added to the Gone With The Wind collection. Above, I'll Never Be Hungry Again, is limited to 500 for $199.99. Shanty Town is limited to 500 and retails for $214.99. The release date of these two dolls is to be announced.

Fashion First Snoopy and Belle

Last but not least, it's an adorable gift set, LE100, retail $274.99, called Fashion First. The set features two dolls, Snoopy and Belle, and they are scheduled to arrive February 2.

Tonner fall releases continued

Several other new releases were also announced as part of fall collection, including four new items as part of Tonner's Wizard of Oz line. Above, it's Blue Butterfly - Glinda, the Good Witch of the North. She is on the 19" Wilde Imagination PVC Evangeline body with strawberry curls and blue painted eyes with lashes. Her dress is blue crinkle chiffon, and it includes a petticoat, lace tights, gauntlets, glitter canvas shoes, a choker, earrings, and hair decorations. She's limited to just 250 and retails for $224.99. She's available for preorder with a stand sold separately.

Fiery Skies - Wicked Witch of the West is limited to 250, in stock, and retails for $224.99. She is also 19" with painted green eyes and applied lashes. Her dress is red shantung with black net overlay, and includes lace and faux fur trim. She also includes tights, black shoes, necklace, earrings, and hose. Her stand is sold separately.

Oz Stroll is an outfit expected to arrive on October 10. It is limited to 250, and retails for $139.99. It's sized for 19" bodies, and includes a pink and silver embroidered dress with a tulle bodice and crinkle chiffon skirt. (Lots of crinkle chiffon this release, Tonner!) It also includes a purple velvet shawl, necklace, satin shoes, and glitter tulle gauntlets.

No photo is yet available, but a 22" American Model Glinda is in production called 22" Glinda, the Good Witch of the North. She's limited to just 150 dolls for $324.99, and she will use the AM head sculpt with blue inset eyes and a non-removable saran red wig. She'll have a pink mermaid gown in pink glitter tulle (man! all the glitter!) with a detachable train (cool!), with gauntlets, bracelets, and a pink horsehair hat and shoes. I can't wait to see a photo!

No Tonner release is complete without a nod to the Gone with the Wind collectors. Sewing Circle is a 16" Vivien Leigh doll in a white blouse with lace trim and blue bows, a blue shantung skirt, and white underskirt and white attached petticoat, and matching shantung shoes. She's limited to 300 and retails for $199.99. (No ship date is yet determined.)

Several new Patsy dolls have been released--one to note in particular is The Ultimate Patsy, who is actually a resin version. She retails for $294.99--not bad for a BJD, I have to say. She includes changeable brown eyes and wig, plus a cute outfit. 

Additionally, some vintage doll fans may be excited to see a new addition to Tonner's line with Sindy. She's quite adorable, though not exactly up my alley. The basic doll is certainly priced right, though--at just $69.99 (wow!). She's 11" tall and uses the original Sindy head sculpt, and has rooted eyelashes and a pink and white checkered bathing suit. She's limited to 1000. She has the original shoulder, hip and waist articulation of the original doll--but I'm sure you'd be able to rebody her to another body, if you like. (I wonder how close she is to the Tiny Kitty skin tone?) It looks like two dressed dolls and three outfits are available as well.

Photos added to Fall/Holiday Tonner collection

Two new photos have been added to Tonner's Fall/Holiday release:

• Ruffle Rose Antoinette Basic - This basic Antoinette has green eyes, copper brown hair, and includes a pink dress and panties. LE500 $134.99
• Peachtree Street Stroll, from the Gone with the Wind Collection - This dressed doll includes a rather amazing pink and black striped cotton day dress with a satin skirt, pink crinkle chiffon sleeves and collar, and black velvet details. That outfit makes me want to start collecting historical outfits again! LE300 $234.99

I think we needed the photos to appreciate the dolls. The only doll left in this latest release on which we're waiting for photos is the mink-haired Cami, Basic Resort Stripe.

As always, these dolls can be ordered from Tonner directly, or you might choose your favorite dealer to save a little bit. I highly recommend Dreamcastle Dolls, who also offers splits (in case you just want the outfit or only the doll).

More Tonner Spring 2012 releases...

From the Gowns by Anne Harper collection (am I going to have to go there?), it's another to-die-for Rococo era outfit for my cotton candy historical fashion doll collection. This is Madame de l'Amour, retail $139.99, LE150, ship date to be decided. Check out those brocade shoes! The outfit includes the wig, and the model is a wigged Carol Barrie.

The Cami & Jon collection has added a dressed doll and two new outfits to the line, including above's Just Right dressed Cami. She has new facial screening, brown eyes and the cameo skin tone, a brown velvet suit with turquoise trim, and a fun chiffon printed blouse. $174.99, LE 500, arriving early February.

Radical Red is a new outfit, which will fit the Antoinette/Cami & Jon body, and it includes a red on red dot cardigan, not shown here in the photo. Retail $79.99, edition size 300, this outfit is shipping immediately.

The other C&J outfit is Soho Jaunt, an adorable casual look with lots of layering pieces. It includes a jean jacket, pink cardigan, cream camisole, cargo pants, boots, and pink check hat. This outfit is also limited to 300, retails for $99.99 and is arriving the middle of March. 

The Freedom for Fashion™ collection has added two more dolls, including Neo Tokyo, a dressed bald Yoshio doll. He's wearing a faux leather coat, molded shoes, black twill pants, white tee and a scarf. He'll arrive mid February, retails for $199.99 and is limited to 500.

Akemi is a dressed Aiko doll with mink saran rooted hair on a cameo Antoinette body. She's limited to 350 dolls with a shipping date to be announced. I love her softer look and warm color tones. Her retail is $179.99.

A new Goth Antoinette basic doll is arriving right away, retail $89.99, and is limited to 400. She uses the lily skin tone, has blue grey eyes, bright red lips and rooted raven hair.

Starshine is a new outfit for Antoinette, retailing for $89.99, LE200. It includes a jersey wrap jacket with faux fur trim, skirt, belt, gloves, necklace and sandals. (Any guesses which Antoinette that is? She's lovely with the blue eye shadow.) This will arrive mid March.

Belladonna is a new 22" American Model outfit, which includes a sleeved corset, satin skirt, embroidered head piece, ribbon necklace, lace gauntlets, and fishnets. I just noticed shoes aren't included. Ship date is to be decided. Retail is $189.99, limited to 200. Additionally, three new styles of boots have been added to the American Model line up: Prim, Proper and Specs. All are open editions and are arriving mid March. They retail for $34.99 per pair.

From the Pirates of the Caribbean collection, we have Captain Jack who retails for $224.99 and is limited to 2500 dolls, according to the Tonner website, though some dealers have him listed limited to 500. He uses a new Johnny Depp head sculpt on the 17" Matt body with rooted mink and grey hair. His ship date is to be announced.

Penelope Cruz as Angelica also makes an appearance as a new head sculpt, brown painted eyes and mink hair. She's limited to 500 and retails for $199.99. She is scheduled to arrive in all her glory in mid February.

A new Dorothy Gale makes her debut to the Wizard of Oz line, and will ship mid February. She's limited to 500 and uses a brand new head sculpt on what Tonner calls the 16" teen body (she's wearing heels). Her hair is rooted, and all she's missing is Toto. Retail $149.99.

For Gone with the Wind fans, two new 16" dressed Scarlett dolls have been released. Both use the Vivian Leigh portrait sculpt (I'm not sure if this is different than the Scarlett sculpt). Also, both dolls' shipping dates are to be announced. Above, Scarlett's Wedding Day is limited to 325 and retails for $325.

Heartbroken is limited to just 300, and is a dressed doll retailing for $249.99. I'm really digging her up-do (similar to Royal #82) and slightly upturned side-glancing eyes. (I loved the GWTW movie, but I really haven't gotten into any themed dolls--this one, however--wow!)

Rogue (Marvel) is still to be decided on shipping and promotional photos. She'll be limited to 300 and retail for $159.99. But we do know she uses the Emily head sculpt with dark green eyes with rooted brown hair with platinum streaks.

More to come with Tonner's Nu Mood release!
