More Summer Doll Clones!

 Hey Gang!

The second most popular clone head sculpt is the Summer head sculpt. The first is the 

CEO/Generation Girl. Here is my new clone doll, City Cyclin', who has the Summer head sculpt.

Close-up!

There is a lot in the box. Not bad for $7.99.

The outfit isn't bad either.

There is a bicycle helmet.

It is not a bad bike. It may get painted.

The kickstand goes up!

Not the best cat, but not the worst.  A repaint could make a difference.

Some photos on the side of the box.

Out of her clothes, the body isn't the best.

She has the slender legs characteristic of most clone dolls.

This is one of the Summer doll head sculpts. This is the darkest complexion I've seen used for the sculpture.                                            

(Summer 2004-2015)

Warning: Nude Dolls!

There is also an imperfection on the neck. I plan on reboding her so it is no big deal.

The hair is not as thin as that of many clone dolls.

I will be using the #1 body for this doll. 

This body can be used for many of the darker bodies.

This body can also be used for Malibu Christie!

It is not a perfect match, but it will do!

Rebodied!

Now she can ride the bike. She will be called April.

Next up!

Black Skin Curly Hair Doll—Play 66 Sports Collection. I purchased her from Temu for about $4.50. She already comes articulated, so I didn't have to give her a new body. Or so I thought!

She has the Summer 2011 head sculpt, which is used more often than the many other Summer sculpts.

Close-up!

Clone Close-up!

I love this hair look, but sadly, it is primarily rooted in the hairline.

My doll!

When I saw her nude (you may not be able to tell from my photo), her body was darker than her head.  I had a few of the medium brown bodies. So she was rebodied!

Here she is on her new body!

So here is Nia! Nia is a nursing assistant.

Summer and Summer clone doll that I call Zuri.

I redodied Zuri onto one of the clone articulated bodies. Zuri will work as a teacher's assistant while completing her teaching degree. She will work at the school where her children attend. She is dropping them off.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Introducing Breonna!

 Hey Gang, 

I saw this doll on Debbie's "Black Doll Collecting" blog. She has a great face, so I  purchased her.

She is Breonna of The Melanie Dolls!

She is stamped on the back Apne dolls.

The front of her hair features a molded braid style, with curly hair in the back.

Her eyes, her eyes... are lilac!

Luv Autumn Doll -On Sale At Walmart!

 Hey Gang!

I was at Walmart and I saw these!

At this price!

I watched MyFrogggystugg's video where she introduced these dolls. I was kinda interested, 

but not at 29.97! I can afford to take a chance at this price of $14.00. I purchased these two.

Eight inches is closer to Stacie doll size. But the face and the fashions are too mature for a Stacie doll.

So I rebody her.  Brooke is swapped onto a 'Clara of the Four Realms' body.  It works for her. Her makeup isn't too mature, and she can work as a Skipper-sized doll.  On this body, she can still wear her clothes..

Her clothes can still be fastened in the back.

London is rebodied onto a BMR Bantu Knot body.  The complexion is close, and the body gives her a taller height.

She really can't wear the clothes.  They don't fasten in the back.

Warning: Nude doll!

What they look like on their new body. These bodies are close in height, but the BMR is

s cuvry than the Skipper size Clara body.

The bodies I used.

The Nutcracker Four Realms Clara doll was used for Brooke. I like that name, and she will keep it.

The BRM Bantu doll body was used for London. I like that name, and she will be known as London. 

The Brooke and London will be young people on my blog.  They are just in time for school to begin.
