My dolls, nr 79,5

Next doll is going well with the latest Fashionista 2015/16 entry, as she has got curvy body - quite a hype last season. She can be seen as a prototype of some sort, from ages ago, and I remember my shock and disbelieve, not so long ago, that this doll exists and I have not heard about her... now I see she used to have 'mixed reviews' so to speak.. some called her useless product some even used 'L'-word...

...but here she is on eBay with auction ending on lazy Summer Saturday, after lunch - when ppl have free time but apparently do not spend it timing eBay, oh well...Rosie was one of these dolls you bid for and leave for a roadtrip... when you're back you discover that you have won... and Liv and Asian as well;-P must have been a devil vol. 8;-)

Here she is on arrival...

 ..it's funny how many different ppl are collecting dolls:-)
tomorrow I am sensing some doll heads to Waterstone, Piccadilly...interesting;-)

 she came wrapped in a lovely tissue paper with a professional seal...

Tadaaaa... just look how lovely her palms are! also - you can turn her waist a like nowadays AND her legs are rubbery and with double click... amaze... might need to try to hunt few more;-)

She is so good looking I did not noticed she is missing her hair and has scalp covered with some kind of clay... wondering what was the idea behind.. This is how doll looked like originally (wearing nice suit and coat!):

while I was contemplating what to do with her and her interesting body I saw this post/

photo from I-Luv-Dolls:

Had few fair skinned not-so-loved dolls for experiments but over 6 months had to pass since I got my hands on proper curvy body mold... other ones, even the 'bulb' ones are not proportional.

Rosie's neck it larger than typical so first - I had to take of ca 1 mm from the 'button' of the anchor and, secondly - scratch with the same basic knife or even scissors;-) some rubber off the internal hole of doll's head. With little help of hot water they 'clicked' nicely...

here is my Kata!
but this is story for another entry...
