Chelsea Boy- No Name!

Hey Gang!

I added a new doll even though his does have molded hair!

I purchased him because I saw him at Target.  I really thought he might only 

be available online.

He looked paler online. He is about the same complexion as Chelsea.  I have

noticed he has the same QC issues as most of the other new dolls. I think, after

looking at this guy, that the issues are there because the manufacturing style or

process has changed.  

While inspecting the clothes of this doll (note the hole)

I noticed that the head has a big seam.   The head is made differently now.  

This might be because of the molded hair.  It appears to be two parts  merged 

together now causing a seam.

The seams are more obvious (to me) on the body 

and the feet too!

I guess as long as the seams aren't coming apart, I am OK with it! 

His molded on briefs are more for a boy than the Darrin doll.

 Comparing with Darrin

His shirt/shorts are one piece. So there will be no mixing and matching.

His sneakers are slightly different and have Chelsea printed on the bottom.

It appears that he doesn't have a name....only a number DYT90. If anyone knows 

of an online name, please let me know. 

I am playing around with him and other dolls to figure out chemistry. Do you see it! 

Do they look like friends or neighbors?

Guys in the front!

 I know the answer!

 I have a frog in my pocket!

 Let me see!

 The teacher is looking!

 Are you new?

Yes!

 My name is......
In the next row is the 

Barrette Girls!

Three time four minus two is ten!

I knew that too! 

Heading home from school!
My brother can do tricks with the ball!

 Show em!

I was planning on customizing a brunette boy doll. I still may.  

OK, Thanks For Looking!
 

New Dolls, Redbodies And Some Comparisons

Hey Gang!

Here are some new dolls, rebodies, and some comparisons.  So I saw this doll on
Vanessa's blog.  I thought she was soo cute!  Vanessa is right!  I haven't seen a
dark-complexioned Chelsea doll. When I saw her in person, I saw that the body was
painted.  Bummer!

She was rebodied on a SIS Courtney body. The dress is from Jolee Boutique, and it is a scrapbook sticker. Her name is Tempestt with two t's, so we call her TT!

This is her mom, Linnit!
Linnit:  Hi!

She is a Fashionista Barbie!

She is a Fashionista Barbie doll.  I showed you her clothes on Marti.

Marti: Hi.

I had to rebody her because I couldn't work with the bent-arm thing!

I could never understand why they use bent-armed bodies.

The original body is a little smaller than the SIS doll body.

She has a great face with two-tone hair that's only visible from the back!

She is much better on this body.

They look great together!

TT:  Mommy, I love your hair.

This is Linnit's brother Tyrone!

He spoils TT, and she knows it!

Tyrone:  I don't spoil her...do I?
Linnit: Yes, you do!

They are as close as brother and sister, too!

Having an uncle helps because her father is not around!

Finally, there is another rebody.  There has been a lot of talk about the new Fashionista

doll with the pale Desiree face, but there have been a few Desiree dolls with a dark face!

A while back, I purchased a Barbie I Can Be A Cheerleader Doll Set because there

was a dark Desiree face. Barbie I Can Be A Cheerleader Doll Set

The dolls are called Nikkie and Grace.  I think Nikkie is the dark one.

She is on a Barbie So In Style S.I.S. Rocawear Kara Doll body!

Head swap!

The only other doll that comes close is this one!  The head isn't blown up like
many of the other balloon head dolls. One of my first posts was headsculpts together.

OK, Thanks For Looking!
