Jenny's Club Elise

I want to find some clothes for her that highlight her green and hazel eyes.

Jenny Friend Annie









































I love how different each release looks, just by changing the colors. I never wanted an Annie until this one.

Here are a few other pages of cute Annie photos.

Jenny returns in 2010 as a Fashionista.

The big news from Japan is a Jenny re-launch.

She has a new face that looks like her original face.

She has a new friend, Jessica. She looks cross-eyed and kind of homely compared to the 30-something other Jenny friends out there.

It looks like each doll has a 24 piece display of fashion separates, 630 yen for each item. I'm mostly interested in the fashions, but I would love a new 3rd generation Jenny.

Late late night insomnia post

























The rest of my Mandarake haul, a Jenny's Club Elise and an older Louise. These were only 1500 Yen each. INSANE! All have now been freed from their boxes.

Mandarake gets two thumbs up.

I got an order from Mandarake yesterday. They're a secondhand media and "collectibles" store chain in Japan.They have occasional good deals on dolls.

I grabbed this Takara Bako doll from 2001. The site picture looked like a Juliana, I was pleasantly surprised to see it was Annie. A doll with water-ripple eyes was a semi-grail of mine.

Liv Doll Sophie

A post just for Sophie. I think it's the least I could do for her, after I stole all her clothes, hair, shoes, even earrings.

Liv Katie

I've got her de-boxed and stripped. She's a fun girl, but the doll is still headed towards eBay. I love bright green fashions.

quality in the strangest places

While sorting through junk I need to get rid of, I was surprised to see this on a High School Musical fashion.


















Most of the interior seams on the shirt are serged, while the lapel and tie are raw-edged scraps of fabric.

They don't even serge the "collectible" fashions anymore, how this thing got it is a mystery.

Easter

Today I started taking pictures of stuff I need to post on eBay. It takes more time than I had expected. I'm not even halfway done.

I saved up my Coke reward points and finally had enough to get a free Harpers Bazaar subscription. I wouldn't read it otherwise, but it's free. And free is good.
