Another New Grail!

Hey Gang!

I'm crossing them off!  I don't think I put this doll on the list that I posted before
but she was definitely on the list! I've seen Momoko dolls around.  I have always
thought that they possessed a certain charm, but I had been one of those people
who would like to see the doll in person before I purchased it.  As my taste and
collection have grown, now I think I just need to search pictures to really know
if this is a doll I want.

The are a ton of Momoko pictures out there!  She is a very photogenic doll.
I warn you, a search of her pictures could get you in trouble.  She is just too
cute.  There are several haircolors and complexions out there too.  No matter
which one you look at, she retains that shy but mischievous pixie quality.


Here is the one that I chose....Wake-Up Momoko -- the "Tanned" version.

So here is my girl! I just love the scale of the print on this dress.

I notice that she didn't have shoes.  I have always loved the shoes on Momoko dolls
and thought it might have been a mistake by the seller. I was told that the Wake-Up
Momoko are in PJ's.  So I guess this lovely dress is a PJ!

She is soo pretty!

She is a very petite! 

Under the dress she has matching Panties.

 She is shorter than the standard Barbie doll.

 KiKi agrees to these pictures for scale.  KiKi:  Hello Honey!  You must be new here!

 She is shorter than the second Teen Skipper too!  Nikki: What grade are you in?

She is a little taller than the New Teen Skipper

Momoko: I 'm not trying to be mean or anything but is you head kinda large?
Skipper: People always say that but I don't know what they mean.

 Both can bend their knees but Momoko can do it better.

 Momoko has better articulation when it comes to the movement of her arms too!

She is better able to cover her eyes.

 Skipper, you are peaking!

Both can spread their arms but Momoko does do it with ease.

 Momoko can point her feet!

Warning: Nude Dolls!

Momoko has a longer toros and more feminine body

She can also turn just below the breasts.

I am calling my Momoko Martina but everyone calls her Marti.  She is the baby sister
of Tia and Sonya.

Marti wears and looks good in all types of fashions!

 She loves playful outfits the most!

She is adventurous and athletic too!

OK, Thanks For Looking!

BFC CALISTA

BFC Calista 

I will admit, I did like the BFC Dolls when they first came out.
I didn't want one in my collection but Calista has wore me down.
I had read what Philly Collector said aboutthe doll. Then I stumbled
on to Roxanne's Dolldiorama story on Calista. There began a shift at
that point. I looked at the doll a little more while searching for other
dolls. By the time I wanted her, there weren't any in the local stores. This
made me want Calista even more. What sold me on her is that she
wasn't the one who was a model or the one who was the air-headed
or the one who was the designer or the street smart one, she is the smart
one! Then I read that Philly Collector saw her at Big Lot. So when I
was out that way I picked up the last one they had!

So here she is! She comes with all of this.

A sweater, book bag and diary. 

Here she is out of the box!

She has a pleasant face. 

Like most girls with glasses, she has a pretty eyes and face behind
the glasses!

Pretty black thick hair that is curly. 

Here come the comparisons. 

She is smaller than Skipper and Taylor. FYI Skipper is the same
height as Taylor but Skipper is a little thicker in the body than
Taylor.

She has a flatter body that Skipper and Taylor and is not as
developed bust wise as Skipper and Taylor. I think that is why
Roxanne made hera little younger than Skipper.

Her arms are longer than both dolls! 

They are a little off for her body. 

They can where each other's clothes... 

but not the shoes! 

Calista has bigger feet! 

She does have jointed ankles.

FYI, BFC doll's skinny leg jeans are too small for other dolls.

They are almost to small for Calista!  

There are a lot of great clothes in this doll line! I might have to pick some
clothing sets.

OK, Thanks For Looking!
