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!

I think you found one of the best IT's guys I have seen. And yes - he will be a great jazz pianist. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Joanna, he is kinda cute isn't he? :) I just have to find the right outfit now.

Yes I think he was a great find and will make a really good jazz piantist. I love his jacket! And I hope to see him again soon on your blog.

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

Hi Sandi,
ReplyDeleteWow, he's so gorgeous! He could make a great jazz pianist. I'm in love with his amazing hair, he remembers me to the vampire Lestat <3
Greetings ^^
I'm so pleased you think so Lily. Trust you to see him as a vampire. LOL!

Congrats!
ReplyDeleteHe definitely has 1970's vibe and if you redress him he can be a pianist in the Jazz Club :) He is really handsome guy :)
Thanks BB. I am so happy that everyone seems to like him. :)

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 ;)
ReplyDeleteYep, I just have to find the right one Joanna. :) Oh I think the girls may fight over this one. LOL!
DeleteBig hugs,

A handsome dude! The colorful clothes suit him well!
ReplyDeleteI can see him with a trumpet!
Hugs!
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! :)
ReplyDeleteHi 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.
ReplyDeleteI'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.
DeleteI'm pleased you found a guy you liked even if it wasn't a new Homme.
Hugs,
