Online From Five Below!

 Hey Gang!

I found these items for sale on the Five Below website!

First, I can always use a little more food and diorama items for my dolls! So Teeny Tinies.

Bed and Breakfast!

It comes with great little items that maybe a little small for Barbie.
You can make them work.

Sadly no shrimp and grits!
Sweet shop,
 A 20 piece set has some great items too!

I love sushi! It is great to eat in the heat. It fills me up and cools me off. Some of my dolls like it too!
I was hoping to incorporate the Sushi shop into my Pacifice Rim diorama.
20 pieces also!

Zoe Summer Ride!

The body has articulated knees, arms and hands.
the clothing is nice too! some of the outfits are one piece.
There is a skooter doll.


The shirt wrapped around the dolls wait comes of and cane be worn separately.
The only come in two complexions There are black and white dolls. So they are a little limiting.
Although the heads are large, they make great body donors for Chelsea size dolls.
It is not a perfect match but it will do.
Sophie is closer to Kelly size. She isn't articulated bur the outfit and bike are great.
Mini Barbecue Grill
This item is a little small but I think it can be combined with the Dollar Tree grill to make something nice.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Animal Planet Play Sets! Shark Week Is Coming!

 Hey Gang!

You might remember my post "Bact To St. Malcolm!" where I introduce you to some of the sea creatures, staff and activities that go on around St. Malcolm. 

What I didn't tell you is that I got a lot of my sea creatures from Animal Plant Mega Shark & Orca Encounter playsets and Wild Republic playsets.  The shark Dick Cheyenne and the mini version of Nelson came from  that set. The penguin came from The Wild Republic Aquatic Moveable playset.  I found both sets on sale at Dress Barn.  The scale on everything wasn't the same. The animals were 1/6 scale but the action figure and boat were closer to 1/12 scale.

Pieces in side: One Great White shark, one Orca whale, one Tiger shark, one barracuda, boat action figure diver and supplies.

The Wild Republic Aquatic Moveable playset

Set includes:Great White Shark, Sea Turtle, Sea Otter, Beluga Whale, Dolphin, Orca, Seal, Penguin, Oceanographer, Camera, Flashlight.


Figure.


I do spent a lot of time on Sundays watching Animal Plant! So when I saw the sets in the toy section, I had to stop and look. I was lucky enough that the mini Nelson figure looked really close to my GI Joe with the blonde hair.

Big Nelson

Having both sizes meant I could do things for a diorama in a small scale that would be hard to do in a large scale.  Since then I have gotten a few more sea creatures as you might have notice from my penguin post "News In The Penguin Pen" (which I need to redo) and hope to make a Sea World/Aquarium for St. Malcolm.

Purchasing animal and doing a diorama for them means research on my part and I always learn cool things about animals that I can share with you. So I didn't know that Great White Sharks and Orca inhabit the same waters and compete for food.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

More Kids on the block! Clone Dolls!

 Hey Gang! 

While searching the net for clothes for my Stacie size dolls I came across these! They are by Dukimou from AliExpress and are Stacie clones! Well you know I like clones. I have an AA Stacie clone before Mattel came out with an AA Stacie! 

Promo Photos

 The discription said that thet were 7 inhes but as I read further and saw the picture of the doll nude (I love that they showed the doll nude so you can see what the body looks like! I wish more companies would do it!) it showed her as 23cm which coverts to 9 inches.

Warning Nude Doll!

So I figured she was worth the gamble to order. I chose the brunette Stace because
I didn't have one ant the team Stacie brunette by Mattel had a bent arm.
I also got this blonde one.
They aslo had a boy doll! These doll is a White Jackson doll clones! Woo Hoo!I thought this were a find. I got two.


The fact that they came with hat was a nice touch!
I might paint the hair on the second boy red or brown.

Jackson!
Clone!


My Photos!

They come in a bag wrapped in heavy duty bubble wrap!
He is very cute in his outfit and hat! The quality is what you might expect from Sparkle Girlz.
His has the five part articulation which is the same as Stacie dolls. The arm are more rubbery than Stacie dolls but the same style.
The hat for the girl is held on with velcro which I will have to remove!
It pulls on the hair when removing the hat. This doll has a pretty shade of auburn hair.
It isn't rooted thickly.
The face screening is pretty good!
She is Stacie height wich means the clothes can be swapped..
Feet are the same size too!
I think the body could be used for other heads too!

OK, Thanks For Looking!
