Werepuppy's A Doll A Day Challenge 2020

[dunneh]

Wow that's a really cool figure! Have to say that figure making has really come far.... I looked her up and it looks so much like her!

I agree the Disney store dolls are better than the toy store fare.... the 'shimmer' dolls are just... their heads are accurate I guess but there is no cohesion in the line. They look a bit generic, especially Cindy who reminds me of Barbie. Their clothes are also very simplistic. Mulan's dress looks cool, same with Snow White, but Tiana's is really blah imo and Ariel's especially is not great. The classic dolls are much better, though they are more exþensive so that makes sense. They still look like their animated counterparts but they also match each other in their face shape etc which I really like.

[werepuppy]

She looks super-cheerful and the pic is displaying properly for me!

I worked out what the issue was and was able to fix it, so I'm glad to hear it went back to displaying properly.

Bayley looks so happy, with a childishly innocent-looking smile on her face, that I cannot help but wonder what might have caused her joy. I don't believe it's "just" a wrestling victory, it seems something more special...

Nope, really is just a wrestling victory. For the era that this figure represents - her NXT time - Bayley's character was a fan who had made it to the big time. She was cheery because she was living her dream. It was actually really nice. She's a heel now, but it's been played out pretty well. 

Bayley looks like she might rival Carly for cheer...
Alice is very cute and definitely has a 'classic' look.

She just might be able to do that, actually. 

I'm really surprised that they didn't think to make a general Alice doll for sale before now - I know there was a couple in the 90s and very early 2000s, but the Alice in Wonderland film has been growing in popularity for years - if they had a doll on sale around the time of their live action movies, I bet it would have gone through the roof, so to speak. 

Wrestling... and punching, apparently!

Punching is allowed in pro-wrestling... 

Is she the Australian member of the WWE?

No... I think I know who you mean, but it's one of three people so I'm trying to work out which of the three it would be. 

Pretty Alice even if her dress is covered in glitter.

Bayley looks very happy with whatever she's doing.

I really wish they didn't cover their dresses in glitter - it makes them feel... less nice? 

Celebrating a victory by asking for high-fives, clearly. 

Wow that's a really cool figure! Have to say that figure making has really come far.... I looked her up and it looks so much like her!

Oh yeah, the Real-FX scans now mean that the figures are really amazingly accurate, and it's a great time for wrestling figure collectors as a result. Though I do have an older figure that's got a surprisingly decent face-scan for it's era. 

Honestly, I don't think there's been a perfectly movie accurate representation of most Disney characters who get a doll. Well, no, tell a lie, Moana's store doll looks pretty good actually...

327. C is for Contemplating



This is the Disney Store Alice dressed in the stock of Pullip Regneration Series Fantastic Alice, as I am contemplating making her something like it. It's on the back burner of things I will make, but it's a thought. I like the idea of her having a flouncier pinafore as it would be a bit more accurate to what Alice would have actually worn. Hm. Going to think on it a bit more.

[neon_jellyfish]

I love Fantastic Alice's dress! Also Classical's one. I generally tend to like Tenniel-esque Alice dresses, so I think it's a great idea to sew her something like that. I can't sew anything that fancy yet, but I plan to sew a ton of Alice dresses for my dolls.

[davidd]

The Pullip dress looks absolutely perfect on Disney Store Alice!

[Alliecat]

The dress suits her perfectly.

[dunneh]

I love fantastic Alice's dress on Disney Alice too! Looks so much cuter. What a cute doll she is though. ♥ Again I love the face ups in that line.

[Lejays17]

She’s so cute in the other dress.

Ah no, it looks fancier than it is, but it's all pretty simple sewing, really. It's going on the backburner for things to sew though. Mostly cause I will need to get the right shades of blue in.

Thank you! 

The dress suits her perfectly.

Thank you!

I have to agree again, they really do have good faces. 

She’s so cute in the other dress.

It does feel a bit more book like, which is good.

328. D is for Duo



Woody and Bulbasaur make an oddly cute duo of friends, don't they?

[neon_jellyfish]

They do! I like garlic turtle's Bulbasaur's hat and scarf.

[Loona]

That's one cheeky smile Woody has there. And I still love your Bulba and his trendy apparel

[davidd]

Bulbasaur is daring anyone to disagree with that statement... or with any of his opinions.

I'll agree with whatever Bulbasaur wants.

[Alliecat]

Haha, Woody looks really chill, ready to let his friend handle everything.

[Elfy]

I can see those 2 going on odd couple adventures.

The hat and scarf are really adorable for him.

He has what Charlie Bears calls their giggler face, and it just suits him so well.

Bulbasaur is daring anyone to disagree with that statement... or with any of his opinions.

I'll agree with whatever Bulbasaur wants.

Probably for the best, some of his moves are pretty powerful. 

Haha, Woody looks really chill, ready to let his friend handle everything.

Bulbasaur can handle himself... 

I can see those 2 going on odd couple adventures.

Heh, that would be pretty fun if they both weren't so big LOL.

329. E is for Esmeralda (2.0)



Another one of the newer releases by the Disney Store and honestly the best one in my opinion. Esmeralda just looks really stunning and I'm glad to have this doll.

[davidd]

Still no wagon or caravan for her, huh?
