davidd's A DOLL A DAY 2026

What counts as a blizzard?  How much snow did you get?  Nevermind, I saw the photos.  Must get pretty windy up on the rise where you are.

It wasn't a true blizzard. Just blustery gusty wind and snow -- about 10 inches / 25 centimeters.

Possibly a little bit more tonight, then a couple of really cold clear nights before things warm up early next week, or so sez the forecast.

19 February - A Doll A Day 2026:

Integrity Toys "Dracula and his Brides: Eternal Collection - Lucy" fashion doll

.

Aftermarket costume. I do not have the original clothing, accessories, or box. I acquired this figure from somebody who acquired it second hand. Actually, like back in the "golden age" of doll forum fandom online, last year I purchased some items from a member of one of the action figure forums. In addition to what I'd purchased (a boat, of all things, and some "nautical" clothing accessories), he generously included several pieces of 1/6-scale furniture that he thought might work in my tiki bar or surf shop diorama projects; and wrapped in tissue under the furniture was this rare Integrity Toys Nu Face doll.

I didn't know what to say. It was a nude doll, no box or accessories, and the years have resulted in some fading, but these things retail for $1200 and up for mint-in-box. It has to be worth at least a couple of hundred. He told me he got it in a "mixed lot" purchase years ago and has never used it. He knows I am gradually attempting to assemble a cast of action figure characters similar to those of our late online pal Miskatonic Nick, so he kindly donated this figure to the project.

I really want to find a better costume -- something more "vampire-esque."

(UPDATE: just purchased something via eBay that might work.)
