Werepuppy's (Attempt At) Doll-A-Day 2019!

[werepuppy]

So now Big Wednesday has a Loki of her own!

She does! And this one is not going to be pulling tricks because plushie.

Interesting plushie.  She looks quite happy with it.  Yoko's cute.  I've seen that little skull thingie all over and never knew it was from Monster High...?

She is happy with it. The skull design is common, but Monster High kind of co-opted it as their symbol. 

My brain got kinda stuck at processing the idea of Loki plushie    

Always great to see Wednesday!

There's a Thor one too - he's got a little furry beard. 

I need to photograph her more, clearly. She's just always so quiet...

I didn't know that Funko made plushies (which shows just how educational these threads are!). Wednesday looks so content with Loki in her grasp.

Honestly, I didn't either until I was given Loki and Thor, I did a quick google and it showed that they made various superhero characters, a Star Wars line and a Disney Princess line. She is quite happy to have this plushie, yes.

I am amused by cuddly Loki.

It makes me grin a lot. 

Wednesday and Loki should get along very well together.

Their 1/6 scale selves do. Most of the time. 

A plushie Loki, the epitome of cuteness, I think.

The Shibajuku line was nice, I liked that their clothes were a bit more interesting that the usual Barbie clothes.
One of my favourite pieces is the “leather” jacket.  Kit has taken it for her own, it goes nicely with her 50’s look.

You might just be right there.

I never really got to see any of their fashion packs. I might google and see what I can find.

92. Binge Read

Olivia is looking forward to binging on some comics. Now, which title should she start with...?

[neon_jellyfish]

I know neither of these titles, but 'Hero 9 to 5' sounds interesting!

[kadytheredpanda]

Choices, choices... May have to eeny meeny miney moe it. Although all sound very interesting.

Hero: 9 to 5 is pretty much as it sounds: being a superhero as a regular 9 to 5 job. It's a satire of pretty much everything from DC and Marvel and well worth the read. Even the art style is a deliberate take on the way superhero comics are often drawn. 

Choices, choices... May have to eeny meeny miney moe it. Although all sound very interesting.

They are all great titles. Given what I can guess of your tastes from the dolls you've shown, I think you'd enjoy Hypergirl best of the ones shown there.

93. Bleeding Edge Goths: Devastatia

Arrival date: 1st April 2019

This gorgeous lady was a lucky win on eBay! A good, low price with reasonable shipping, so of course I threw a bid in.

She came in box, but I do not have the space to keep boxes so out that went. I had to replace the elastic bands in her hair as the old ones had crumbled. Luckily I keep a ton around so that wasn't too much work.

Yeah, I really like her. My BeGoth collection is one that's always on-going, so to speak. I'm always on the look out for a new addition but I'm not actively doing it if that makes sense.

Now to work out Devastatia's personality in my doll-canons...

[neon_jellyfish]

What a dazzling lady!

To me she looks like chansonniere in a bar where most regulars ceased to be alive decades ago...

[Alliecat]

Congrats on the new arrival. I'm not familiar with this line of dolls either.
Sounds like Olivia enjoyed her comics.

... That really does fit with the vibe I have for most of my BeGoths, and I did have the sort of lounge singer feel from her. I think you might have cracked it! 

Congrats on the new arrival.  I'm not familiar with this line of dolls either.

Thank you. Bleeding Edge Goths were by Varner Concepts are were a line of 12" fashion dolls that focused on the alternative/gothic fashion scene. They also made 7" vinyl figures and many times characters would appear as figures first before the dolls came about. The last line was made in ... 2008 or 2009 I think. Prices can vary, but it's worth just sitting and watching for a good deal to show up on the aftermarket. 

Olivia always enjoys her comics.

94. WWE Superstar Askua

My first WWE doll. I just really love Asuka's hair though to be fair it's got a ton of product in it straight out of the box. Still, she's got a great likeness to her real life self. Even if WWE are treating her real life self as a B player when she's a main eventer...

IDK if I'd get more of these; maybe Bayley and Sasha Banks... or Ember Moon if they made one of her... While the more muscular body shape is nice, they're using the same one for all of them, regardless of height differences. It would be nice if they did make that adjustment. Askua is the same height as Becky in the doll line whereas in reality Askua is ... tiny. Seriously, she's one of the shortest in the women's division.

[neon_jellyfish]

I'm not familiar with WWE (surprise surprise!), but I do like the dolls! I think they're really pretty.

[Alliecat]

Well, it would cost them more to make different molds, so... I don't like wrestling but she's pretty, and it is nice to see a more muscular doll.

[Cornflower Blue]

WWE Superstar Asuka looks to be the old Jakks Pacific Lucy Lu/Charlie's Angel doll from a number of years ago: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/413064597066390277/

I had all 3 at one time and I also picked up Asuka when I found her on sale at Target.  I like her colorful hair.

[Elfy]

Asuka can’t possibly be shorter than former American Ninja Warrior contestant Kacy Catanzaro who barely makes it to 5 foot.

They are very pretty! I wish - surprise surprise - distribution was better on these. I honestly can only name one store they're in near me and they're overpriced in that shop.

Well, it would cost them more to make different molds, so...   I don't like wrestling but she's pretty, and it is nice to see a more muscular doll.

This is true, but it's nice to think they could do different heights as well. I really do like the more muscular body sculpt, it's got a nice look to it.

Ooh, I don't think I ever saw those dolls. I wish I had - I would have gotten them. Her hair is brilliant.

You're right, she's a bit taller than that.

95. Lizzie Hearts

Lizzie's sig is one of those EAH releases that I feel got the look just right. I like the Elizabethan vibes that her signature outfit gives off, though I can't help but wonder why for it. (Because Liz the First probably though.)

[neon_jellyfish]

Lizzie! I've never seen one in person... Otherwise I would get her, of course... Oh, she's a beauty!

[Elfy]

Lizzie is one of my favourite EAH dolls.

I remember those Charlie's Angels dolls! IIRC they advertised that they had abs, which made me lol at 10 years old.

Lizzie's a beaut!
