Five and Below Glam Squad!

 Hey Gang!

I was able to find the Glam Squad fashion packs at Five Below! I had seen them on Facebook and looked for them when I went there. Thus far, there are only three.

Street Wear!

Autumn Vibes

Fashionista

They suggest that you pair them with your Glam Squad dolls!

I purchased a Glam Squad doll the Yoga doll to try it on!

So before I show her in the outfits, let's look at the yoga doll and what she comes with!
She comes with a towel, yoga mat with carrier, yoga ball, hand weight, and water bottle.



She is articulated at the shoulder, elbow, and wrist.  She has an articulated hip and knee.
She has a large head with large eyes. The face is not the best and will have to go.

The body can be used for other dolls!

I decided to show the doll fashions on the body without the head. Her face was 
too distracting. It is good to use a cover on the hands when trying on clothes. I cut a finger off of a glove.


Street Wear
White shirt, red GS jacket, print jeans, black sunglasses, white sneakers, and red hat.
Autumn Vibes
It has a black and white plaid coat and straw bag. I thought they weren't a match. It also comes with a white shirt but is not as well made as the first set. The sleeves are a little lopsided. There are red glasses too but I misplaced them.
There are white shoes and jeans with an elastic waist.
Fashionista 
The Fashionista set comes with two outfits.
This top's sleeve and bottom hems are unfinished. The skirt's hem is unfinished
as well. Styled with black shoes. I'll keep the top and work on it. Pleather skirts don't last 
long and will be donated.

Halter dress, white glasses, and bag are shown here also with the black shoes.



OK, Thanks For Looking!

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!

BTS Dolls! Some of the Last Purchases for 2020

Hey Gang!

Yes, I have purchased the BTS Dolls.  I got a few at Five Below but I got most of them at Ross for $3.99!  So the Bang Tang boys are in the house. 

I must say I love the faces and  articulation!
It took me a little longer to be OK with the hair colors and outfits but that is coming!
The great articulation is a plus for any doll and you have it with these!
They are wearing the outfits from their Idol tour.  There is another set with different 
outfits too. I did like the outfits and the hands on the other set and they are all 
sold together.

Now I could review them but there is no need to reinvent the wheel! I saw this video 
and did a pretty good review of the dolls!  My Froggy Stuff does a good review also.


I am currently restyling/redressing the and adding them to Johnston!  You have met a few
of my dolls that have been given a role in Johnston but I will be adding more.

Another AA Disney Male!

Hey Gang,

I have been wanting the Disney Genie doll for a while. As you may
know, Disney doesn't do a lot of AA male character dolls. This may be
the second male doll if you don't count Naveen as many don't.

I saw one with the Human Form(not the blue) at Target. They only
had the one, but when I came back for him, he was gone.I had been
thinking about order him online until I saw him in Five Below. You
know I had to get him!

 The Genie/Mariner is played by Will Smith who is from Philly! In the place to be...

Will's acting career has take off and this maybe the second "childrens movie" that
he has stared in.
Is it a good likeness? Let me know in the comments!
May more like a dark Yul Brynner


I knew when I saw the doll, I only wanted him for the head.  I thought he might
make great character in Johnston! Please Disney, go back to the regular doll bodies 
without the molded on clothes!  I can at least work with the old body.
I removed the head so that the focus is on the body.

The Body!

The top is all one piece. The details are printed into the top like many of Mattel
doll clothes. Except for the top and jewelry, everything else is molded. 
Even the shoes!  
The bracelets are also molded on.

The neck knob!  The new Hasbro bodies have a neck knob that is closer to the style of Mattel.

The body is a bit larger than the other bodies produced thus far by Hasbro for Disney.
Many of the Disney dolls done for them by Hasbro have molded on clothes.  Often it
is the pants.

So what do do for a body!

So to work with the Genie, he needs some work on my part.  Thanks to 
Hey, It Is Muff, I have become braver when it comes to altering dolls. 
He needs a new body and no ponytail (in my opinion).
I have read that some haven't been able to remove the ponytail but I was. 

 If you look at him straight on, you won't see the hole.
He does have a large head!

There is a hole on the top of the head but I think I can fill it in. I will even
 keep the ponytail.  Who knows how I might be able to use it in the future.

Warning Nude doll!

I thought to balance the head I need a body with the girth of the original body.
I have seen photos of the the head or a articulated Ken's body 
and it doesn't look good.  The head is too big for the Ken and  BMR1959 
and many of the the other articulated bodies!  His head is better suited for a 
Broad Ken body. 

On the new body!

He looks better proportioned on the larger body.  I placed him on Broad Ken Man Bun
body.  The complexion is not a close match but it will do!
He can still wear the top!
I added prince pants and Ken gold sandals to complete the outfit! 
In street clothes!
So I am call him Ving! Short for Irving.
 Until I fix the hole, he can wear hats!
 He looks good in a hat away!

OK, Thanks For Looking!
