The promo picture is finally available so here she is: Monster High Catty Noir! She will be available in September.

The Queen of the Constellations Barbie doll is one of my must haves this year. I loved her from the second I saw her and I’m so glad I’ll be able to get her soon. But I was a little bit suprised when I noticed they changed the promo pictures on BC. The first promo picture had a softer vibe, the face paint was not as harsh as the one on the new promo pic. Also I noticed some milder differences in the dress and cape. The new one is more body fitted than the older one.

I have to admit I preferred the old version but I’m also happy with the new one. How about you? What do you prefer?

The second issue of the lovely doll e-zine “That Doll Magazine” will be coming out shortly and here is its cover.

Well it looks like Steffi Love is getting some love from the doll collecting community. I see more and more people interested in her and that makes me happy. Also I’ve seen dolls popping up in US stores.

Below you can find some great promo pictures of the new 2013 Minnie Mouse Steffi Love Collection. The dolls are already in stores across Europe so be sure to check out your local toy shop if you like these dolls. I will definetly be buying the Steffi LOVE Minnie Mouse Urban Style dolls and some of the fashion packs. So, so cute!

UPDATE:
These images are part of a Barbie Collector survey. Other dolls were featured including some really nice possible playline Barbies. I so wish Mattel would start producing again more realistic looking playline dolls. These remind me of the Fashion Fever line. So cute!

Hi everybody!

First of all let me say sorry for being MIA, but I’m sick. I got…chicken pox. Yup…at 32 years old. I never had the so called childhood illnesses so here I am! Tomorrow I’ll be celebrating one week of being quarantined in the house and it looks like I’ll be staying another week.

Anyway, getting back to our Barbie dolls, Doll Genie is reporting that these might be the Jennifer Lopez Barbie dolls. Very elegant! I really like them. Can’t really tell if they look like JLO, but I loke their faishions. Can’t wait to bigger images.

Simba, the company that creates the lovely Steffi Love doll, has launched a new doll series called Supermodel that consists of 4 characters: Juls, Sara, Bel and Miri. The official synopsis:

Juls, Sara, Bel and Miri are BFFs who show off their skills on the catwalk. The fully moveable supermodels always wear the trendiest clothes, suitable for any season and any event.

They remind me a lot of the Moxie dolls but I quite enjoy their fashions and accesories. I wonder if they fit Barbie… That would be very nice because I so miss the non-pink/no-glitter My Scene and Fashion Fever clothes.

Check out below all the available dolls a this moment and go to the official site for more images and details.

My friend and colleague Lubo has announced that three new Hunger Games Barbie dolls are coming out this year. They are:

- Hunger Games Katniss (Oct) $36
- Hunger Games Gale (Oct) $36
- Hunger Games Peeta (Oct) $36

I’m not a Hunger Games fan but I can’t wait to see the new Katniss Barbie especially if she will be wearing the fabulous dress from the poster. And now, as a bonus, here’s the first ever Hunger Games: Cathing Fire trailer.

My dear friend Maria has asked me to post this ad. She’s selling an amazing Susy Prima Ballerina doll. I have the blue dress edition and I can tell you she’s stunning and she aslo has articulation. Her price is $30 with free shipping. For more info contact her at mggirl [at] list [dot] ru or leave a comment here.

Simba has just posted a few new updates on their Steffi Love product page and I just adore them! The Hello Kitty and Minnie Mouse sets are so cute! I know they copy Mattel and Barbie a lot but they also have a lot of cute original products.

Nik and Marie from Ninimomo have also debuted 3 of their amazing OOAK creations that will be available at the GAW 2013 Convention. So glad they created an OOAK Ken. He looks so handsome!
