I do hope you post again soon. <br />Best of luck and wishes,<br />MaddiAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930491414181625273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976131144111931783.post-7683587354323804022016-05-15T17:34:54.946-04:002016-05-15T17:34:54.946-04:00I've found that these guys don't look as c...I've found that these guys don't look as chibi in person as these pictures let on. The group shot comparing the bodies makes Batgirl look more like she does in person. Unfortunately, Harley's ridiculous popularity in all forms has left her the only one of these I can't find anywhere! On the one hand, I should be happy that my favorite is so popular, but it's sort of a pain. I also wish she had her animated counterpart's widow's-peak bangs.

My instinct is that there's not too much glue inside, the heads are pretty soft and squeezeable, and there is no immediate stickiness coming out of the scalp. So, hopefully not a glue problem!

I think the reason for the high-heeled feet is for ease of redressing, since many of them have tight trousers and large feet. I might get a neutral one like Poison Ivy for my fashion doll collection. What's the hair like, is there glue inside?BlackKittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14014093330317682849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976131144111931783.post-52497034930242820322016-04-06T23:12:55.240-04:002016-04-06T23:12:55.240-04:00Not all of them have the painted on details, but I...Not all of them have the painted on details, but I definitely agree that it limits the options for redressing. For example, I would love to be able to have Batgirl dress "down" as Barbara, but the black hands aren't the best for that. However, the hands are removable, so some switching around would probably be possible!<br /><br />It is fun! It means we have a very cluttered house with a lot of toys everywhere, but we both love the hunt!Christina Articulateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18281697885130657562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976131144111931783.post-65493782504773232482016-04-06T22:49:17.180-04:002016-04-06T22:49:17.180-04:00Very nice review.

Thanks for showing their bodies in comparison to other dolls. I am glad to see that they have articulation too. I am not a fan of the painted on tights or the painted on gloves just because of the direction my collection goes in, which is for Fashion and story telling. I do like the well muscled bodies though and I do like their shoes and clothing. <br /><br />BTW, it must be fun to have your husband also into figure collecting too!Phyllishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06084954419650988542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976131144111931783.post-70554560856115835752016-04-06T22:35:35.664-04:002016-04-06T22:35:35.664-04:00I was really impressed when I get them out of the ...I was really impressed when I get them out of the box. They're really sturdy feeling, and seeing them beside other dolls I have, that feeling makes sense. Obviously the majority of my collection is Monster High, and I think we all know how teeny tiny those dolls are! It's only more obvious when they're next to dolls with such strong, athletic bodies, which is actually a body type I think is (was!) missing from the world of fashion dolls.<br /><br />We got really lucky when we went over to Buffalo, actually. We only went to one Target and they had everyone except Wonder Woman in the dolls, and all of the action figures. We were only looking for Batgirl and Harley to start with, but we were totally prepared to not find Harley! It's super expensive to be going over to the States right now with the way our dollar is, so I'm not sure when we'll go over next or if we'll wait for the worldwide release...but hopefully with the worldwide release will come more easily available dolls everywhere! And also I'm really hoping we see Katana soon, she's really missing from this wave!Christina Articulateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18281697885130657562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976131144111931783.post-77312288819935716532016-04-06T22:27:30.394-04:002016-04-06T22:27:30.394-04:00Loved seeing the three of these in action!

It's great to see how the body looks relative to other fashion dolls.<br /><br />I've been really impressed by the quality of this line and by the cross doll/figure marketing. My only complaint is that they can't seem to keep them on the shelf (I have the Bumblebee figure, and would get more if only they're weren't always out of stock locally).jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.com
