I may need to enlarge the set by a few inches. The day bed is almost too long to fit.

If Maxie and frenemies run out of space, perhaps they can migrate to the Smart Doll sofa... which is a pretty funny idea now that you mention it!

Maybe they can try and see how many dolls they can fit in the phone box, which I have to admit is a great prop.

The shot witb Triv & the set is so interesting from a perspective point-of-view. I;m always surprised as to how big the smart dolls are compared to the regular play dolls. And photos like this point it out so well.
calling for reinforcements - the mind boggles a bit at that - are they to fit on the bed too, or to evict the current occupants?

Haha, it's fun seeing this little scene of dolls on a bed spiral out into a story.
My guess is she's going to call in the red demon girls. Or maybe some of the army guys.

Now that is your most brilliant suggestion yet!
The phone box is a Bratz accessory.

Everyone will fit on the bed! The bed is like a TARDIS, only with more pillows!
Yeah, "twice as tall" as a regular fashion doll actually means 2x in every dimension. When seen side-by-side, the Smart Dolls appear much larger relative to the 11-inch dolls than the numbers would suggest.

Those are pretty good guesses! And pretty good ideas! This could go on for ages!

16 May - Eyeglasses for the German guy
Bent piece of wire for eyeglasses. I don't want to spend money on actual doll-sized eyeglasses.
I wish I knew how to make cool stuff that, y'know, looked cool, not crappy. There are lots of excellent doll and diorama crafters online who seem to be able to make anything, and make it look good. I am not one of those people.
And I'm tired and lazy and busy today, in roughly that order, hence the break from the "bed time story."
They're not dolls, they're action figures!

They look pretty good. If I tried it they'd be crooked.

I actually wondered if the Ameliae were being called in as reinforcements. Whoever fitted the glasses needs a course in how to do it properly. All optometrists make sure their employees get that training.

Crooked-er, you mean?  Next time we'll get Elfy to help.

We'll be stuck on this sofa for the rest of the year if that happens. (Say... not a bad idea!)
Indeed, such training would be invaluable. I'll be watching for your detailed tutorial.

Frank is the reinforcement? Or is he calling in a favour from some of his associates?

Frank always looks so cheerful. (He should be, I guess; that's a pretty big glass.)
The lighting in the phone box makes me think some kind of ... portal ... is about to open in it....

Frank is remarkable cheerful - how many of those glasses has he had?
And I’m pretty sure Sindy (?) has opened a portal to somewhere while calling for reinforcements.

Frank just happened to blunder on to the scene.
Your other hypothesis is a bit unnerving.

Several glasses, I'm sure! And then several more glasses!
