davidd’s A DOLL A DAY 2021

[davidd]

I'd like to hire them to help with my clutter.  Where do I sign up?

You can hire them here: https://shop.smartdoll.jp/collections/fi...t-doll-all

And once Alliecat has finished using their services, we would like to employ them for the Library here, which is in dire need of a serious de-clutter.

Not even gonna touch your library! Gotta be realistic! No way, no how!

4 April – The Unboxing of Number Nine

Bunny Aviator for Easter - yay!

[dargosmydaddy]

Ooh, she looks like she's plotting something right out of the box.

[Alliecat]

OMG, hahaha -- NINE?!
Are you going to stop at a full squadron or keep going for a whole air force?
She is very sweet... look at those soulful greeeen eyes.

If I can find ten, I'll probably stop.
Although a dozen would be fun.
Thirteen - I will definitely stop at thirteen. But Ameliæ are much less common anymore on the secondary market, so I doubt that thirteen will happen.
I agree, this one looks very sweet! It is surprising how some of them look somehow different than the others. This is probably an indication of inadequate quality control, but I prefer to attribute it to personality differences.

[Elfy]

This one looks like fun, will she break away from the hive mind?

LOL - we were going to try this weekend. I looked in the room, shuddered a bit, and backed away closing the door. Maybe next weekend...
(Sometimes I think the only way it's ever going to be decluttered is to throw everything out the window into the {uninhabited} fish-pond & set fire to it all)

Yay! Another Amelia for the Squadron.

5 April – The Sunny Surfin' World of Maxie

Hasbro Maxie doll from the 1980s.

Here's a website that will answer all your questions and more... like you care:
marilynsmyth.free.fr/maxiedolls1988.php

One of the mildly interesting trivia factoids about the Maxie line is that some UK Sindy doll accessory sets were marketed under the Maxie brand in the States.

Vintage dolls like that are fun. Reminds one of childhood.
...wait, no, that's not right, I'm not vintage...

Lol! That’s very funny. I’d run & hide from Teczca if I’d nicked her skirt too. Actually, I wouldn’t have nicked it in the first place!

I would have guessed the Maxine doll was a Sindy variation, they have a very similar look.

[Alliecat]

I hope they work out who gets to have the outfit without too much conflict…

[davidd]

But would Tezca have "borrowed" anything of yours? I'm sure you have a closet full of goth-y goodness! 

I hope they work out who gets to have the outfit without too much conflict…

The story will continue.

7 April – A Doll A Day 2021

7 April – Tricky to Play

[Elfy]

This is largely what they had in mind when the phrase skyscraper legs was coined, I am sure.

[Alliecat]

She looks like she's trying to decide whether the banjo is cool enough to swap her guitar for. Or how she could make it really cool.
Now I want to hear her playing it

[Elfy]

I want to see her go all Jimi Hendrix or Eddie Van Halen on the banjo.
