Brothers!

 Hey Gang,

I purchased two of the new Babysitters Inc male dolls and noticed that they looked enough like the Inferno doll to be their older brother! 

So meet Jair, Carlos and Javier!

Or is it Javier, Carlos and Jair?

OK, Thanks For Looking!

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!

Quick Post and Doll Play

Hey Gang!

Just a quick post and playing around with bodies! Playing around with
Inferno on a Max Steel body.  What do you think?

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Fixes I Will Have To Do!

Hey Gang!

The humid weather effect the paint on one of my repaints and another doll's
hair paint will also need repair!

 Zhang and Ryan!

 These rubs/scratches on my doll who is probably less than a year old!

 I love my Ryan repaint and I was sad to find him this way!  I can repaint the eye!
This may be harder that find a other head and repainting the hair, eyebrows and beard.

So I started withn Zhang! I thought he was an easier fix! I used a q-tip to rub

black paint into the area and blend it in and I darkened the whole close cut area.

After that I sealed!

 Zhang turned out well!

Next up is Ryan!  I had to look through my head and body box.  I found another
Ryan head that I repainted like the other!

The old head!

The new repainted head!

While I had the paint out! I want to make a redheaded Chelsea boy! So I took a
brunette and painted him!

 Mattel doesn't do many redheads!

 Close-up!

 He is Ryan's baby brother Roy!

I found him that the head and body box and repainted him too! 

I don't know what I will do with him but here he is!

 He need a little more cleanup. He can be a new character!

 I got an Inferno doll in my travels for $5.00 at Forman Mills!

I didn't like the painted on pants so I move him to an old Fashionista Ken articulated body!

He will get more play time on this body and  plan to name him Carlos!

I will work out the rest of his story.  It was easy to get the head on this body

and he needs a little more work to get the head on a little lower!

OK, Thanks For Looking!
