Lejays17 Doll-A-Week 2020
I see that your super hero lunch companions are wearing masks. Are you required to wear masks when going out and about these days?
They're not dolls, they're action figures!

davidd - we haven't been required to wear masks at any point. People do wear them, but it's a personal choice to do so.
Mostly we've been told to stay home whenever possible, and to limit contact if we go out in the community.

Alliecat, i nabbed this tiny bottle when I saw it at the supermarket checkout about a month ago, it's in my handbag usually. I was also fortunate when I filled up my petrol about a week later that there was some at the counter, so I got a little bottle for the car as well. I did have a laugh as the woman who served me stage-whispered that they'd just had a loo-paper delivery and did I want some? It felt very clandestine smile smile
We were lucky that we'd been at the supermarket that weekend when they'd had a delivery so we were fine.

I needed to go out this week to buy a new kettle (I've done the caffeine withdrawal before - its not pretty  LOL ) so I bought a new outfit for Elinor & a teddy-dragon for fun while out.

The teddy-dragon was a part of a whole different line that had about 5-6 different animals (there was cat, dog, bunny, panda, dragon & maybe a deer?)  He's so cute - you can't see on this angle, but he has wings & a tail too.

How nice to be able to find doll clothes while out shopping. No chance of that here. They are a cute pair.

Elinor's outfit looks dandy for rough-and-tumble adventures!

The dragon suit is so cute and so red!

Alliecat - we are pretty fortunate to be able to get doll-clothes in the department stores, plus there's an actual toy-shop at the shopping centre, so I do drop in there sometimes to see what they've got. The toy-shop is where I got the dragon-teddy.

I liked that the outfit was overalls, rather than a skirt/dress, so it looks like she's a regular kid ready to play outside. The only complaint I have is that the straps don't undo, so you need to wriggle the outfit on carefully.

9-million photos this week  LOL

I did a group shot of my Deridolls, and then thought I needed to do individual portraits as well.  So have some felt-doll spam...  I used the Deridolls in the monthly Time Traveller challenge, for scale.  They're about 9 - 11cm tall, depending on how old they are.  I poked about the web, and I don't think she's makign them any more - the last post on DeviantArt or Livejournal is 2014, and Facebook is 2017.

Eleanor of Aquitane - she's my favourite real historical figure (Robin Hood & King Arthur are my favourite non-real fgures)

Jaime & Cersei Lannister from Game of Thrones.  Jaime's helmet is removable, and he also has a little sword.

Great to see the crew getting some pics. They’re highly amusing and imaginative. Love Li’l Green and her sign.

So cute!!! Is Lady Jane's head detachable? I have a MH CAM body without head that I call Lady Jane. I use her as mannequin for sewing.

No, sadly it's not.  It was a bit of a joke between us.  However, she also did a Zombie Anne Boelyn, who's head was detachable.

This isn't the best one, but I don't know how to search better as I'm not a member there.
