of the Liv body, that even a disbeliever like me was willing
to give it a try if the body could be had at a good price. Well
I finally found a Liv doll at a....price I could live with. She
was on sale for $7.99. Making this the last purchase for the
month of June.
Hayden here has graciously volunteered her body for a
rebody opportunity! So now that I have the doll and have
taken her out of the box, the next question is who should
be rebodied? I had several dolls to choose from but the
one who receive this honor was Fiona.
Hayden awaiting the reboding.
Now you may remember Fiona from one of my first few
post and my first attempt at a diorama. She is a Toy
Biz Eowyn doll who I had rebodied onto a Mattel
Scooby Doo Velma Teen Skipper body. The original
doll had a action figure body which I really hated! I
liked that old Skipper body much better than the
original. She has a very pale complexion and she need a
pale body. She also needed to be shorter than Ian,her
husband, who is shorter than Ken size. She still didn't
get a lot of photo or play time because she wasn't very
poseable then. So let's hope for more photo time for Fi
Two dolls getting to know each other before
the swap! Fi wonders how she managed
to do anything with such a large head.
If you read my blog, you will know that I am not a
fan of the large head dolls, so I don't see myself keeping
the head at all. Look for it on my Dollpage site in
the near future. The clothes and shoes on this doll
are not too bad and will be kept. I also like the fact that the
earrings come out easy too. I keep them also.
I do like this head knob better than Mattel's. I always cut
those hooks off anyway. I have been saved a step! One
other note, when I placed the head on its' new body, there
wasn't a lot of play in the neck and head that I get with
Mattel bodies. Big plus!
Fi getting adjusted to the new body.
Not bad. The head went on smoothly. No forcing
required. A plus! Fi seemed to like it. She is now
able to touch her head and see her hands.
Stretch out a little from time to time.
I think I am beginning to like this body.
Fiona: Ms. Leo, I don't know about these clothes! I don't
think they are me. Can I fit some of my old outfits?
Ms. Leo: I think so. We will try a few of them on later.
These shoes should work for you and maybe the top. I
don't thing the shorts are you. Your figure does look
more like you and more mature than on that Skipper
body.
Fiona: Agreed! What will happen to my old body?
Ms. Leo: It will go in the body box. One never knows!
Ms. Leo: I can put the white dress back on you.
It should look good with those shoes.
Fi feeling sassy in her new body!
Ms.Leo: Do you thing Ian will notice the change?
Fiona: Deary, he's a man!
Doll and woman giggle!
