Dolly Market Forum

I beheaded a doll last night. The head popped off with a quite satisfying CRACK! The point being, I can relate to Wednesday's idiosyncrasies.

>gasp< dolly karma will get you for these atrocities....
Wednesday looks to me, a little sad about it, though. Must be the lighting.
Nice little furniture set.

Thank you, all!

302. J is for John



Another figure from the Torchwood range. John Hart is... actually, y'know what? This is another job for a wiki page! Sometimes, it really is the best option.

Love that tiny little headless doll, haha! Wednesday is great.

Oh wow I didn't know James Masters was in Torchwood, that's neat. Learning lots of stuff on this thread. Thats a really cool figure.

So I managed to comprehend he's a Dr Who character, but then I run out of today's supply of my intellectual ability. Neat jacket!

Don't know the character either. Didn't follow Torchwood. But with that outfit, Jimmy here looks like he could pal around with Gaston.

Different scale, though, huh?

I watched all the original Torchwood (after they killed off over half the main cast, I stopped...), so I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to recognize the character before I read the caption. Overall my pop culture recognition is not so great, so yay!

The Addams Family in general is a favourite for me! 

Oh yeah, season 2. Good episodes, actually. Thanks!

Hehe, it's okay, getting that he's Doctor Who connected is plently! And yeah, that jacket is just so cool.

Very different scale. John here is about 5.5", and Gaston is in the 12" scale.

Yeaaah, I need to agree with having done that, actually.. But yay for recognition!

303. K is for Kermit



Hi-ho, everybody! Kermit the Frog here. One ofthe most famous felt faces in the world, this is my own plush of the green front frog of the Muppets. Disney Store one from the release of The Muppets. Soft, and cuddly, and very much loved.

Kermit!!!

He makes bein' green look so easy.

Iconic character, although there was so much Henson in Kermit and so much Kermit in Henson that he hasn't been quite the same since ol' Jim left this mortal plane.

Great Kermit there, and posed very naturally for him.

Yay, Kermit! Is he a puppet?
I think one season of Torchwood ran on a channel I could get. I watched some of it? I think?

But, but, you get massive points for being a Farscape fan

See, now I'm really wishing I could find a Palisades Kermit, because those Muppet figures are all in scale and I have the image of Nora getting to meet Kermit...

This is ... very, very true. Same with Rowlf, really.

Posing Kermit was a lot of fun.

You'd think they would make him into a puppet, but no, plain old plush.

Ahhh, season one was fun.

304. L is for Loki



"...What in the Nine Realms is that meant to be? Dear Norns, mortals make no sense." 

Loki met his plushie self! ... It made me giggle.

That's pretty funny!

I used to have a Palisades Kermit, years ago. Ended up selling all my Palisades (I only had three or four) except for one, Adventure Kermit, dressed like Indiana Jones. The Palisades Muppets were impressively detailed and extremely accurate likenesses. Unlike Loki's plushie self!

Squee! Cute!

It somehow made me want cute chibi figures (like Nendos, but not necessarily) of all deities of trickery and mayhem and the fun stuff in general.

Huehuecoyotl, Anansi and Veles (because I'm a proud Slav) would be another must-haves alongside Loki. Also an entire line of raven figures from Raven Tales of Pacific Northwest natives.
