More new dolls?

First, some Peter Venkman (Doctor).

Petey-1

He looks cute. He's evil.

Petey-3

Evil.

After Buzz, Rocky and Gozer I finally have a "real" kitten. HE IS A HARBINGER OF DOOM! DOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMAH.

He's destructor cat. Even though that's actually Gozer's name. He ate my laptop cord and cost me $80! He's lucky he's so damn cute. He attacks everything and everyone. I am covered in claw marks, the dog and Gozer are afraid for their lives....he's a mess. He's also a clingy baby who wants to be held, carried around and asleep in a lap all the time. Good trade-off I guess XD

______________________________________________

I have said a bunch of times now that I do not want anymore dolls this year (yeah I know the year is damn near over already), but every time I say that I end up with more. :/

Ringdoll K blew me out of the water when his promo photos were released, like no other doll since Alex. I'm still kind of sad I could only get his head, but I plan on getting him a body asap (next year) so I kind of count him as a full doll. Not sure how I'm going to handle him.....since he's not really a character of any kind, just scribbles in a sketchbook.

I have a LTF Pongpong on order after swearing I not only don't want any more YO sized dolls but want to get rid of some of the ones I have (two are up for sale and I am seriously thinking the third might have to go too - no more bunnies, only Boo)

And now I have a MNF Karsh also on the way as the result of a trade.

Yeah.

Another Karsh.

It's been a while so it's more than likely not too many people even know that this will be my third attempt at this doll. I have owned Karsh twice before and sold him both times. Both times he was an elf, a friend of Mocha's sort of worked into my pseudo-storyline that failed to get off the ground which is why Mocha has a new story in a new world. his name was Jen and he was a kinda-colorful, emo thing. I never did anything with him, but Karsh is easily my favorite Fairyland mold (which might be obvious since I scrambled to pay over $700 to get the SD version and do not regret.) so he sat around being cute until I hit this period of FL hate and sold off all my MNFs. Which I then bought again over the course of several years :\

My second Karsh looked exactly like the first and I don't think I took one photo of him, so I sold him off as well a couple years ago.

Fast forward to now. Or maybe a month or so ago.

I had recently gotten Bruce/Batman (IH Owen) and was kind of thinking I'd like to try one of the sidekicks. Dick Grayson and Tim Drake are my favorites, and I was trying to come up with a good mold for either of them. I dragged out my poor MNF Celine boy (who is still nameless) and stood him next to Bruce and found it good. He'd make a perfect Dick Grayson/Nightwing....were he not tan.

So I looked at all the MNFs and had a couple in mind that might work, but after looking at owner photos wasn't a fan of any of them. Except Karsh. I thought he would work, on the muscle body (which I hate) and his ears sanded down (which I hate). So a doll I've already owned twice with characteristics I'm not even a fan of was on my wishlist (the invisible one I keep in my head).

Then I got offered a Karsh on a muscle body with a broken ear in a trade.

Fate telling me I needed a new doll? Possibly! He'll be here Thursday assuming nothing happens in transit.

Since his cute little elf ear is already broken I will have less issue sanding them off (I really don't like sanding elf ears), and as this Karsh will be 110% different from my other ones I think he might last.

I don't know if I want to do Dick Grayson, Spiral spy(?) or Nightwing yet, so I'm going to have to figure that out. Visually Nightwing will be way more fun, but he'll have to have a mask painted on so I can't change my mind. Maybe I need two heads! Cause that works all the time.

Now for Pong. My newest DC related doll group isn't my fault, or even mine really. My roommate got ahold of my Lil' Batman graphic novels and decided she wanted to turn all her YO sized dolls into Chibi versions of the characters. She actually ended up doing the Justice League (currently she has Green Arrow, Black Canary and Harley Quinn, with Superman and Wonderwoman up next) and left me with Batman (because Batman) and the Joker (also because Batman). I was only kind of playing at doing it because I can't change any of my surviving YOs, and then I sold two dolls in one day and could suddenly afford Pongpong, who was my #1 choice for Chibi Joker.

Sadly this meant Chibi Bilbo was sacrificed. He's so cute, I have plans to remake him, but for now....he's Batman.

Chibi Bats-2

 and he is the Night.

  iamthenight

He still needs work, but what a fabulous start! I'll probably stop with the two of them, though I'd really love Catwoman, but I have yet to get Catwoman in any size, so we'll see how that turns out. Batman is technically on a girl body, so I'd love to get a LTF boy in a trade and switch them. BUT again, we'll see if it actually happens.

Ugh

After a mass apartment cleaning Friday night and all day Saturday, we managed to have a Doll Meet at our place. It went great, then my moms car broke down and I spent the next two days driving her around, and coming down with a sinus infection or horrible cold or something. Thanks to cold medicine which takes my brain away, I couldn't manage to do anything at all all week....so now I'm behind on life.

During this week I had a lot of shippings and some arrivals however....Plus my copy of The Pale Emperor by Marilyn Manson - which I am now obsessed with.

Luts: long story short, I ordered, on a whim, their Plush SD body. XD It should be here in a day or so. I can't even wait for this lol

Etsy: My two clothes orders shipped and one should be here any day now.
Benedict should also ship today - at least that's what I was told. Still haven't gotten a notice yet. But yay!!

I was worried because I thought he'd get here before his wig did, but

Dollmore: Shipped today! WOO! I've really been missing Vanilla for reasons.

Still nothing on my final Etsy order or Alice.

I am in talks to get an Fdoll body, so hopefully that will happen soon - this will be for Rowan, Sage's twin, so he'll have a body! Which means I need to figure out their wig sitch. I either need a new wig for Sage or a decent wig for Ro. They can't share the same one....it doesn't work.

F60 Soony is still fabulous on her SD10 body. I am working on different hands for her. The Zaoll hands are great for now tho.

And most fun - my MNF Celine (trade for Bory) showed up this week!!

celine1

This is not a final look. At least for now it's not. He came with this faceup, which is a little girly for me, but since I'm still not in a place where I can do them, it will be fine for now. Nail polish must come off. He may keep the eyes - and I have been dying to use that wig ever since I sold the doll I dyed it for eons ago. If he doesn't keep it, it'll be natural colors of either a pale blond or darker blond/black mix. I love this one tho >.< and so far it doesn't seem to be bleeding! Yay!

I was thinking he'd be a deer, but with the blue hair....I'm not sure about deer anymore.

Between him and my MNF Soony, there are three names I'm considering:
Chestnut Praline (Ches)
Peppermint Latte (Mint or Latte)
Cinnamon Dolce (Dolce)

I can't decide which fits him better, and which fits Soony (who is a panda with Macchi's original fur wig - white with a few color streaks) better. Celine is a photographer who turned paparazzi, Soony is a Panda techno-geek. Ugh. At least I know how they fit into Mocha's storyline. They have to be the last too, I was originally only going to have three. THREE. Mocha, Des and Macchi. Then four when Vanilla happened, and that was it. Now there's way more than that!! And I really want that Island Doll Wind girl who's name I can't remember for one of them >.< that may never happen...

Random trades are both my bane and favorite thing ever. lol

One more

Another Free Repeater

Soooooooo I sold my Pukifee this year, and a couple other dolls of that size, thinking I would only keep Ebils, and then have YO size forever. Then I ordered that AngelBattle Cream who is Pukifee sized. Oops.

Worse, I went to Dollism and saw Latidoll. I've never been attracted to their tinies, I mean, not at all, but I saw this guy and just fell in love with that little face.

DOLLISM46 

 I honestly thought about buying him, but didn't, because I didn't want that size anymore. I went back and saw him a couple times, and took this picture, which was a mistake, because weeks later I'm still wishing I would have grabbed him.

Then Withdoll went and released those Werewolf Babies. Omg. For real, just look at them! I have thought about it since the release, and I just can't pass it up, on the chance I might seriously regret it, like the Lati Yellow Monster House Lashes. I'll be ordering tomorrow btw, I may be winging it as I am not 100% which one in which color I want most (I want all the werewolves!! I don't even care about werewolves!), but chances are it'll be Coco in Rosy Brown with all the animal parts and wolf skins. He has a name already - Sterek. lol
I'll call him Wolfy.

I figure he'll be friends with Mcoy "Bones" (the someday-will-get-here AB Cream)....and since I prefer things in threes, I've decided to try and get the LDY Vampy Lashes. My first attempt is Lati. He's long sold out, but they had him at Dollism, so I sent them a note asking if he might be there somewhere, hiding in a corner waiting for me. We'll see if that works out - I don't have a ton of hope, but it's a start.

If you're me, or you happen to know me very well, you can see why I love him. It's not just the fangs (they help) or the stripped suit (also helps), but the face. Those giant eyes and that shape of slightly open mouth is like my kryptonite. Every time I see a tiny that looks at me like that I melt. The Withdoll Coco has the same look - I didn't realize it though his faceup until I saw one blank. Same face. I don't know if it's because of Baby Alex (Leekeworld D Bebe) or if I bought him for the same reason and didn't realize it at the time, but he was the first. Then it was Ai/Afi from Soom, to this day the only Soom face that got me until the released Ashes/Hawa who are not only bunnies but look like Ai and Afi! I tried and couldn't even put my Afi up for sale....he's just too adorable. And I keep going for the exact same dolls over and over. Even my other tinies match up a little. Chibi Alex, North and Baby Wyn kind of have a similar look as well. I repeat a lot in this hobby. Especially if count the 7 Kara Klums.

So if Lati shoots me down I'll put up a WTB so I can bring "Fang" home to his new BFs, the newest residents (even though I don't own any of them yet) of Halloween Town. Mayored I'm sure, by Skullface. Ebils will become, not a demon but a devil, I have plans to make him a tail (and since the doll was supposed to be a dragon, he has a tail magnet already!) and all will be fabulous. Chibi Alex has moved in with the Alexcorn because I maintain the fact that Alex has Halloween hair....so all those weird dolls I don't know what to do with have a place, which means I'm less likely to turn around and sell them on a whim. My friend moved her DC Jodie into my collection as well - he's going to get a new look and be named Crow. Someday my poor Moon will have a body and she'll fit in nicely with all of them.

And if you can guess where my title comes from, you can have cookies.

Now for pictures! I wanted to get some shots of Ghost, but I failed, so it's just Gambit and Adrien.

GambitMDR2

Changing him to the River head was the best idea I ever had...

GambitMDR3

GambitMDR1

I can't wait to actually use the LED light eyes....so far I haven't done it. I am stupid happy with him right now. If I was going to have a doll of Gambit, this would be it!! Which sounds so dumb, but since I didn't buy the Heath or the River with that in mind....so it makes sense to me. lol

And Adrien!
Whose real name is Adriel, as like the rest of the band Fallen, he's an angel. He's also their second guitarist, back-up vocals and manager. And sometimes he's Uriel's friend with benefits. Because Uri can't keep his hands off my Delfs.

ELadrien2

I want different eyes for him eventually....but I haven't found any I'm partial too. He wears VK Contacts....so you would think I'd go cray, but no. I just can't decide.

 ELadrien1 

I got really lucky at the Dollmeet. That dress is exactly what I wanted for him! Also got lucky with the guitar and wig. This is pretty much what I wanted him to look like! Adrien was, if you can't tell, very inspired by Visual Kei bands XD as were my two Volks boys also in the band (they're not even as extreme as he is). Though Trevor really should get a better faceup. I really like the one he has though D:
He has some normal hairs too, but I've never put them on him XD
