I've Ordered A Male

I have had my mind set on ordering a male IT doll as the pianist for my Jazz Club diorama and decided to wait for IT's release of the new Homme dolls, before rushing into something I might regret later. However, I was a little disappointed when I saw them, I guess my expectations were different from what the designers had in mind. I'm not a fan of the painted facial hair, nor the flock scalp hair and the price for a doll with a costume which was far too modern for my use, was completely unjustified.

Still, I need a male doll, so I went in search for one that was reasonably nice to look at. One that I could perhaps redress to suit, and one that didn't cost an arm and a leg. The search wasn't an easy one, the secondary market had quite a few male dolls on offer, but way overpriced for what I consider are  pre-loved dolls. I also looked at IT's website, but there was nothing there that grabbed me. I then looked through all the dealers websites and finally found this guy . . .

He's on his way to me right now and the best part was he was NRFB, he was also a fraction less than retail price (which is always a nice bonus). He probably won't be here for a little while seeing the postal workers all have Easter holidays, but that will give me time to think about how I will style him.

So what do you think? Do you think he could make a great jazz pianist or not? I'd really love to hear your opinion.

Happy Easter & Big Hugs to all!

      Thanks Sharon. He will keep his clothes in his wardrobe for other occasions. Oh you will once the diorama is finished.

    Congrats!
    He definitely has 1970's vibe and if you redress him he can be a pianist in the Jazz Club :) He is really handsome guy :)

    I think he looks great and will be looking even greater in suit! He is a very handsome doll, and I'm sure he will be fantastic pianist too :). And your girls will be really happy to have him on board ;)

      Handsome and colourful, but he's no trumpet player in my band. LOL! (Only because I he doesn't have one)

    I'm glad you were able to find him at less than retail! I was looking for an IT male doll a few years ago and it was almost impossible! :)

      Hi JS! Yes, I was really lucky, sometimes it pays to look at what the IT retailers have left in stock. I have had better luck with getting NRFB dolls at a good price there, than anywhere else.

    Ah so this is your mysterious piano player. He certainly looks the part. I'm so glad you were able to get him NRFB and at a good price. That's always a bonus. I think he's usually Poppy's companion, Chip from memory if I got that right? Like you, I found myself sorely disappointed with the Homme line up this year. And funnily enough, this was the main reason I decided to rejoin W Club this year. I wasn't going to but I really wanted to get at least another male or two for my collection.

    I'm just glad at least I liked and ordered the upgrade male doll.

      Yes, so was I Alasse. He's Nigel North AKA Miles Morgan sculpt, but he's definitely one of Poppy's friends.
      I'm pleased you found a guy you liked even if it wasn't a new Homme.
      Hugs,
