My Friend or Foe duo which I ordered back in December, arrived from Integrity Toys on Monday. The parcel actually was shipped long before they were scheduled for despatch (April) and I was initially concerned they may not have been as beautiful as their prototypes, but I was certainly not disappointed with the dolls.
All my Integrity Toys dolls come packed in their box, within a box, within a shipper, so everything arrives in perfect condition.
Their costumes are absolutely gorgeous and the detail amazing!
And I love their facial screening, though I think Ginger's lips are slightly more pink than the ones on the prototype, but that could simply be my computer. Kudos to David Buttry for creating the most wonderful doll for the Poppy Parker and Friends series . . . I adore her!
Of course Poppy is, as she always is, simply delightful.
Each doll comes with a wrap, short gloved hands with long glove extensions, jewellery, matching shoes and clutch bag.
These are the last dolls I'll be ordering from IT as I have not renewed my W Club membership, and the girls will be staying in their box for the foreseeable future, as I really want to concentrate on completing Cyanide.
I am still waiting on a few items for her to arrive in the post, including the Saran for her hair. Although all items were posted the day or day after they were ordered (all from within Australia), our Australia Post is moving really slowly at present. Yesterday I received an email to say some doll stands I ordered Friday would be delivered today, then tracking went down and now they are showing as delivery expected Thursday!
I have managed to change her eye chips and they aren't looking too bad (I'll post more on that later), but it's going to be a while before I can finish her. Until next time, make the most of your confinement, stay safe, healthy and happy!
Unas muñecas preciosas, enhorabuena.

Hola Xanadú, no tengo ninguna muñeca de IT, pero Poppy Parker siempre me ha parecido muy bonita, con esa boca y el maquillaje de ojos tan parecido a los figurines de moda de los años 60. Pero en esta ocasión la que me ha enamorado totalmente es Ginger, tiene una carita adorable.
ReplyDeleteBesos.
Hola Ilona,
DeletePoppy Parker era mi muñeca de TI favorita hasta que vi a Ginger, y me robó el corazón. Es tan hermosa que desearía que pudieras verla en la vida real.
Grandes abrazos,

LOL, I love the name Cyanide! Your Integrity dolls are pretty, as Integrity dolls almost always are. I love how their redheads are always unabashedly redheaded. Stay safe and well!
ReplyDeleteWell I think having Cyan hair the name was perfect for her RM and what a great story she could have.
DeleteIT certainly hit the spot with these two, for sure! Ginger is all I could wish for in a red head!
You too my deat!
Big hugs,

I'm not trying to tempt you BUT came across a doll called Mizi today that looks like she might be right up your alley. Google Mizi doll.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry I have already seen these Rachael, but I'm not buying dolls for a while, the exchange rate is too awful.

Hello! Those are some beautiful dolls. I think I like Ginger way more than Poppy, plus she's a ginger, which is always a bonus. I don't really collect IT dolls, but if I did, this would have been a must have
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend.
Yes Ginger is both beautiful and a red head, what more can a girl wish for, :) I'm so glad I held off until I found a doll worth dishing out the dollars for.
DeleteYou too MC!

Ginger and Poppy are so stylish! Have fun with your dolls and stay safe!
ReplyDeleteThank you PP, I certainly will. Let's hope we all stay safe.

Hello! These two ladies are simply divine! Detailed and the soft colors are just perfect! I can just imagine how happy you are with both dolls! Congrats on getting them home! Stay safe! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteHi Niina! I'm over the moon with them, especially Ginger so you imagined right. Thank you.
DeleteI hope you and your family stay safe and healthy too!
Big hugs,

These girls are both beautiful Sandi, very lovely faces and makeup.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are OK and will reply to your email really soon....I've been finding it hard to sort of 'settle' down and do much, but hopefully I've started to concentrate more and will be in touch.
Big hugs Sharon xxx
They are the perfect way to end my IT collecting with Sharon, I have enough of these dolls to tell some great stories over on my other blog.
DeleteYes, we are doing okay, though getting a little short tempered with hubby at present . . . why do men have such a problem with washing their hands??? I understand where you're coming from, I think we are all feeling a bit like that . . . it's all unsettling.
Keep on keeping on!
Big hugs,

She is the best sculpt I have received from IT so far, and definitely a keeper! Initially I wanted a red haired Poppy, but I think Ginger more than satisfies me. :) Thank you, I will post more about them when I include her in The White Panther Jazz Club stories.

They are here, they are here!!! Oh my goodness they are so pretty!! And the net on the wig was suprising, honestly. Please, do share a lot of pictures from them!
ReplyDeleteYes M, they really are! :) As fas as I can remember all the IT dolls come with a net on their hair. Oh I shall, but furher down the track.

Congrats! Did the delivery guy/girl shake the parcel to see if it sounds more like a friend or a foe, what do you think? :D.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Oh you are wicked Mia, LOL!

Oooh, they are simply adorable! I always liked Poppies, but Ginger is just as breathtaking in the real life as she was on company photos! Congratulations on their arrival and I'll be patiently waiting for more photos :)!
ReplyDeleteLots of hugs!!
Me too Chiriann, that's why I have so many, this one is #5, but you are right about Ginger, she is far more breathtaking than any of my fashion dolls. Thank you.
DeleteBig hugs,

I'm glad they finally arrived. They do look quite lovely too. I only wish Ginger had been sold separately rather than as a two doll pack as I rather liked her but didn't really want another Poppy as I already have so many as it is! Also I think with state borders closed now, mail might be delayed a little more as they go through the checkpoints. Fingers crossed though that the saran hair comes later this week for you!
ReplyDeleteThanks Alasse, but you could have easily sold the Poppy. Mine arrived before they clossed the state borders and the mail is still getting through okay at present. I gather you haven't read your Thursday emails yet. :)

Witaj Xanadu, bede pisala po polsku bo moj angielski jest niezbyt dobry i skutkuje to tym ze choc zagladam czesto to komentuje rzadko.
ReplyDeletePoppy Parker sa cudowne i bardzo lubie je ogladac . Gratuluje kolejnych perelek w kolekcji <3
Mam nadzieje ze rowniez ja kiedys choc jedna upoluje do swojej kolekcji.
Serdecznosci i usciski Ula
I absolutely fell in love with Ginger. I'm normally quite immune for IT girls charm, bu this one is just gorgeous... *_*
ReplyDeleteStay safe!
Wow, what beautiful faces! I am amazed at the detail. Really nice.
