New FR: Nippon from Integrity Toys!

I'm personally rather thrilled to announce two new additions to Integrity's FR:Nippon line--these girls go on sale December 9, 2014 at the FR:Nippon site. This is on Tokyo Time, so keep this time difference in mind.

The dolls are limited to just 300 each, retail for 17,000 Japanese Yen (about $140 plus shipping), and to order, you'll want to email Chiaki, whose email will be listed on the website. (For other IT collectors--these girls share the same body as Poppy Parker.)

Above, it's Darling Girl Misaki. She's an adorable brunette with rooted eyelashes and blue eyes. She will ship next week (the week of December 15). She's dressed in a rather fantastic striped chiffon dress, lace-trimmed coat, tights, red shoes, bag and silver hoop earrings.

Party Girl Amelie also makes an appearance with her friend Misaki. She's got auburn hair, and green eyes with rooted lashes. She's wearing faux leather shorts over fishnets, a turtleneck sweater neck under a cute patterned jacket, and has a nice purse, boots and silver earrings.

She too is available to preorder (probably later today) and will ship December 15.

It's that time again!

The Young Sophisticate Poppy Parker

It's that time again. The kids are back in school, and I'm getting back into the swing of things. Also, I'm going through a major crisis in my doll collection, and working on several books at the same time. Finding my doll budget wanting, I've found it necessary to list a few lovely dolls for sale on the DollPage Show & Sell page again. I hope it's OK to bug you, dear readers, with my first batch of listings.

Above, you'll see I've listed the latest W Club Poppy Parker exclusive. She's never been removed from her box and includes a cute little dog as well.

Irresistible Dania Zarr

Perhaps the tan skin, platinum haired beauty Dania Zarr is more to your taste? She is also NRFB.

Royal Amelie, pink hair version - FR Nippon

A rare find and one I'm not 100% sure I want to part with, I've listed pink hair variation Royal Amelie as well. She's been carefully displayed behind glass, but is complete and has never been redressed.

Captivating Anja - Fashion Royalty

 If fancy jewels and gowns are your style, check out Captivating Anja. She's a steal at $130.

Promenade Amelie - FR Nippon

Another Japanese exclusive and new arrival for me, Promenade Amelie. She's limited to just 300, and she has the same body as Poppy Parker.

Several other items I have listed include Lady in Waiting Dania Zarr, La Reine de la Nuit and Masquerade Magic (Dressmaker Details), both from the NBCC in New Orleans. Check out all my listings here.

Thanks for looking!

Doll Tour Part 3

Yes, this is the last video of the day. I'm concluding the Doll Tour of my 11-12" fashion dolls with the remaining dolls in my display cabinet, as well as the grail dolls in my glass cabinet from IKEA.

I have plans to give similar tours of my Tonner Doll collection as well as BJD collection in the near future. Thanks for looking! You can subscribe to my You Tube channel here.

The main pages are up right now for you to preview the items available, and the individual pages will go up by Saturday morning. So go and look at the main pages to see what will be offered starting Saturday, Feb. 5 at 9 am PST.

You'll find all sorts of fun items by Momoko, Dollystyle exclusive dolls, FR Nippon, Blythe, Azone, Pullip, Fashion Royalty convention exclusives and more. Oh my! The preview items are up, but the bidding won't start till tomorrow.

Also, it appears that the larger images don't seem to be working yet, either.

The Alice Project, Day 27

Fr.Nippon On the Go Destination: Tokyo Miskai as Alice. 

On day 27 of the Alice Project, we have Fr.Nippon Misaki, On the Go Destination: Tokyo by Integrity Toys. She's one of my favorite Misaki sculpts. I love her soft facial screening and her pouty red lips. One of my favorite things about these dolls is their flat feet: if you're patient, these girls will stand on their own.

Misaki is dressed in her original tights, and a dress from Dynamite Girl Jolly Jett. Boots are from Momoko (aren't they great?). The couture tulle, hat and trim are by me.

See a few more photos on Flickr.

Close up of Misaki.

Another IFDC find and Wave from Japan steal, I just adore this girl. I'd been wanting to find her forever, and she's even cuter than I'd imagined. She's made by Integrity Toys from the FR.Nippon line.

She's wearing a Fashion Fever dress (I know, a little lame for this girl, but what I had at the time!). She rocks it anyway.

I really love her soft make-up and her glam eyelashes. You can see more of her photo shoot on Flickr.
