A Few Doll Finds From Facebook!

 Hey Gang,

I was able to pick up a few things on Facebook!  Sometime you get great stuff from people looking to reduce their doll collect.  I wanted to show you some of what I purchased.

First up are the heads.

Asian Joe Head

Often with a lot of dolls on the market, all I want is the head!  I got a GI Joe head and a Captain Kirk head for $3.00 each.  I thought that they were a great buy!  I rebodied them both.

Asian GI Joe on a Action Man Body



On a Action Man body he is much taller than a Joe and can fit many of the clothes I already have.  Yeah his hands are large but I can work around that and it doesn't bother me as much as it used to.


Captain Kirk Head

Captain Kirk's head is sharing the same Texas Cheerleader body as Mattel Rock Hudson head.  
Right now Kirk is using it.  
In some picture that I saw he looked a little different but I like the way he looks!  He is wearing one of my new shirts that I will share with you guys later.

The next purchase were dolls!  

One that I have never seen before and one that I wanted!

I got this You Doll for $9.00!  

I had never heard of this doll line. She came nude and I put a dress that was laying around on her. 

You Dolls are a customizable 1:6 scale fashion dolls by MacMillan Toys in 2015. for $39.99 customers on the You Doll website could choose a doll with a variety of skin tones, eyes colors, and hair styles.  They couldn't combine a particular hair color or style with a particular skin tone and eye color. Instead, customers had to choose from fifty different pre-produced combinations of skin tones, hair color, hair length and eye color.


She has articulated arms and hands...

and knees
Her feet are the same size as the 80'-90's Barbies.
She as an interesting face and the head is overly large.
Here is an exaple of what you could choose from.

Customers chose an outfit and an accessories pack for their doll. The clothing looked like clothes real people would wear.  Customers chose an outfit and an accessories pack including more than 100 different combinations of musical instruments, sport equipment, pets, electronics, appliances, and more. There were options for dressy, casual, and sporty styles. The doll came in a presentation box featuring a backdrop that customers also chose from a number of options. Finally, kids give her a name and the title is printed on the front of the box.

The last doll is Maisha, made by Malaville!

I have wanted her for a while but the shipping from South Africa is a lot!

The seller made this outfit and she came with this on!
She has a really cute face!
Articulated elbows but not hands.
Three click knees like older Barbie dolls.
Now if they can do a dark articulated body, why can't Mattel give us one? IT dark doll bodies are too rare and too expensive!
She is the same complexion as Fashionista # 90 Rainbow Bright and Princes of South Africa!
I can see she will be sharing her body with all my very dark dolls!

OK, Thanks For Looking!
