The Crossroads!

Hey Gang!

The park is the middle of town!  You have to cross though it to get from one side of town to the other. The schools, the hospital, the business district, the airport and the train station are one side and residential living is on the other side.

 Coleman and Jayson are on their way to school!

Jayson:  Don’t you feel hot with those long sleeves on!

Coleman: Don’t you feel hot with all that hair?

Jayson: What EVER!

Zeke: Hey Jayson, what's up!  Did you finish the math homework?  What did you
get for number 5?
Jayson: I couldn’t figure that one out?

Zeke: If we get there early we should work on it some more!

Tami: My mom says she is loving it in Luxemburg.  She is sending something from
there in the mail.

Aya: Don’t you miss her?  I can think what would happen if my mom was gone so long!

Mateo: Hey Annyah!

Annyah: Hey Mateo!

Towanda: I think your sister has an admirer!

Mateo: My mom is bringing the snacks today! She bringing flan!

Aya,Tami, Towanda: Hey Valerie! That is a nice outfit!

Valerie: Hi everyone!  Thanks Tami! My mom and me made this shirt!

Jose: Man, these 15 hour shifts are killing me!  I so glad I am off today!

Nykyrian: It is a great day! It really feels like spring is here. I will be glad to
get back to the early shift!

 Delores: Hey Baby!  I was hoping to run into you before you went to the gym! Hi Nyk!

 Nykyrian: Hi Delores, I see you guys later.

I have to bring the snack for Mateo's school.  I need some money.  What do you
have on you?

 Jose: Here, just take all of this!  I see you at home!

The Foster's!

 Can you take your bother the rest of the way to school!

 OK! Come on you!

You have a lot of responsibility being the oldest!

 OK boys, see you later!

 Blaise: This is a nice place!

 Zhang:Yeah it is!

Alix: Are you sure it is OK for us to come with you?  

Zhang: Did you tell your family we are coming too?

  It’s fine! They love me!  If you’re my friends, you’re their friends too!

 Zhang: I feel like a third wheel though!

 You didn't have to come you know!

 I love you bro but mom would be cool with Alix here on her own with you!

Zhang: Lead the way!

Warden: If we are going to start a club, we will need a clubhouse!

 Mal: Yeah but I will need a shop too Grand!

  Warden: So we have your shop next to the club!

 Mal: That will work!

New 2017 Fashionista Ken Dolls

Hey Gang!

I have gotten a few Fashionista Ken doll but I haven't posted many of
them.  I know you have seen them before on other blogs and Facebook but
part of the reasons for my blog is to chronicle my dolls and my doll
development. So you will see them again here.

There are a bunch of new Fashionista Ken dolls out now! The most I
have ever seen. Normally we get one new Ken and maybe one AA male
(could be Steven or just AA Ken) every four or five years.  So to get
so many Fashionista Kens with different bodies was quite a surprise.

When they first came out, I tried to order from Barbie.com.
Barbie was not processing orders with PayPal even though there
was a checkout with PayPal button. Mattel has some serious issues!
Luckily I have great Blogger and Face book friends! They spotted
the new Kens locally and purchased them for me! Yay! There were
three that were must haves for me! They were: 8, 9, and 10!

One of my blogger friends and your...Anika of  Dollz4moi was able to
provide me with 8 and 10. And Tina, a friend from Facebook, was able
to provide me with 9.

Thanks to both of you!

 As you might have seen from my previous post,
I shrunk the head of #9 and he is now Coleman!

Now let's look my others!  Starting with# 10!
He is called Classic Cool!

This guy is so cute! He looks like my nephew.

I like his pronounced lips and that aren't some strange color.

He comes on the same body as Hip Hoodie.  This new body  and head has a 2016
date like Hip Hoodie. That leads me to believe that they were conceived at the
same time.  Although the head is able to pivot, the neck knob doesn't allow him
to do so.

I am hoping to for a made to move AA Ken body sometime soon.  Both Hip Hoodie
and Cool Classic has a  larger head than #17 and Texas Cheerleader. I really though
that one of these would be the new face of Steven.  I Steven gone for good? I
guess we will see.

I pierced his ears and gave him a very light mustache. 

 I have seen others alter his hair.  That might be in his future.

For now he will keep his molded and painted braids.

The name I giving him is Zion!

Next up is 8 Camo Comeback.

Many refer to the Broad body as the Dad body but I don't know about that!

Warning Nude Dollie!

His body doesn't look like Happy Family Grandpa! I will compare him to other bodies
that are larger than the basic Fashionista Ken doll.  Below is the broad boy with
a GI Joe on an articulated Action Man and Disney Male. These are larger bodies.
He is wider all the way to the hips unlike the other dolls below.

View from the side!

Mattel Body Chart for your review!

The name I am giving him is Camden and he is from NJ.

I have messed around with different outfit. Older 70's doll clothes fit him.  

I have seen any broad clothes come out for the larger Ken bodies.

I have since this photo rebodied him onto a articulated body. My broad doll
outfit have gone to Luther will remain on his broad body.

OK, Thanks For Looking!
