davidd's A Doll A Day Challenge 2020

[werepuppy]

Okay, I love this and I need to see more. Also, Rey, stabbing him will make him whine more, speaking from ex.perience. Lol.

Also? You reminded me I need to get hold of the Wild Stallyns somehow...

[Alliecat]

I really, really need to catch up on these movies.
They look neat. Yay for getting some figures for fun and redeeming whatever negative energy came from the failed for-profit collecting enterprise.

Ermm... you guys are starting to uncannily echo the Ameliæ hive mind!  

Who, us??

[Lejays17]

Ermm... you guys are starting to uncannily echo the Ameliæ hive mind!  

Well, we do have an Amelia who is an auxiliary member of the squadron, so is it possible that we (at least!) are being influenced from afar...

[davidd]

I won’t lie, I cheered when he was stabbed. Still not over Han.

Too bad he was resurrected. For a while, at least.

Excellent unboxing & good to see that Rey is still the boss of everyone.

Rey... thanks to werepuppy... has become a bigger, badder boss in the worlds of the Dolly Market Forum than she ever was in the movies!

I wonder how emo will he become in The Dungeon...

He may tend to be more of a whiny snob than full-on emo in this parallel universe, but it's often difficult to predict with any certainty how characters will evolve.

Okay, I love this and I need to see more.

Also? You reminded me I need to get hold of the Wild Stallyns somehow...

More? Okay, we can do that. 

As for getting ahold of the Wyld Stallyns, you could dress up in your Merida costume more often. As I recall, the Stallyns have a thing for "medieval babes." 

I really, really need to catch up on these movies.

Ermm... you guys are starting to uncannily echo the Ameliæ hive mind!  

Who, us??

werepuppy's The Room version of the Star Wars  final trilogy is considerably more entertaining than the real thing, altho' granted, it probably helps to be familiar with how lame the actual movies are to really appreciate how funny her take is.

Yes, us! I mean, you! 

Ermm... you guys are starting to uncannily echo the Ameliæ hive mind!

The combined might of the communal telepathic mind is not hampered by physical distance (the inverse square property of energy wave propagation notwithstanding).

6 February - ADAD 2020 featuring Hasbro Forces of Destiny Kylo-Ben and Mattel Monster High Slo Mo Mortavitch:

To recap from yesterday: Rey has run off with both her own and Kylo-Ben's lazer swords light-sabres.

[Alliecat]

LOL. Nice pacing, and extra points for the pun

[Lejays17]

That was a truly terrible pun - love it!

I don’t know if Kyle-Ben will be a good Master, he’s far too self-absorbed to train someone.

[Elfy]

A free lunch will always work.

[neon_jellyfish]

That was too funny!
Most famous fictions tend to receive remakes involving zombies (like Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, or Robinson Crusoe On Zombie Island), so it was about time someone did it for Star Wars!

[werepuppy]

Ha! Yes. Brilliant. Legit laughing out loud.

Must see what the Emo Edgelords think of another of them being around...

7 February – A Doll A Day 2020 presents:

DEVIL GIRL STORIES

[Elfy]

A demon doll with a credit card. There’s no way this works out well for anyone.

[neon_jellyfish]

You could also employ the dangerous, but very efficient ritual of Summoning Goods Through The Online Order!

[werepuppy]

Ahhh, I wonder what she was trying to summon...

They both look utterly fantastic, btw.

[Alliecat]

You know, I've never thought about using a credit card that way. Hmmmmmmmmm...mmm...
That's some of that not-quite-Latin that fills in spaces in design templates, isn't it.... (Yes, I looked) Google Translate thought there was something about carrots and tomato soup in it. Is she summoning dinner???
>goes off to look for credit card<

(As an aside, I want her abs )

[davidd]

A demon doll with a credit card. There’s no way this works out well for anyone.

I suspect you are correct. Unfortunately.

You could also employ the dangerous, but very efficient ritual of Summoning Goods Through The Online Order!

Uhm... yeah, that kinda happened.

Ahhh, I wonder what she was trying to summon...

More of her evil ilk, most likely.

That's some of that not-quite-Latin that fills in spaces in design templates, isn't it....  (Yes, I looked)  

  You are very observant and quite clever! I left the "lorem ipsum" phrase in there as a clue, altho' I changed the order of some of the text. Apparently this nonsense text dates back hundreds of years.

8 February – 1988 Lookin' Smart Maxie Doll

Maxie was a short-lived line from Hasbro, on the market between 1988 and 1991, similar to or based on the 1980s version of the Sindy doll popular in Europe at the time. Most Sindy purists dislike the 1980s Hasbro years, when the classic style of Sindy was changed to more closely resemble Barbie.

Several interesting Maxie playsets were offered, some of which were identical to sets branded with the Sindy name in Europe.

This example of Lookin' Smart Maxie has the wrong earrings (they should be little pink bows) and may have had her hair trimmed.

An excellent website offering a brief history of Maxie including an identification guide for most of the releases can be found here:

The Sunny Surfin' World of Maxie:  http://marilynsmyth.free.fr/maxie.php

An animated television series aired during the Maxie line's first year on the market.
