Since people are already emailing me

Ah, we finally have an image for the Comic-Con exclusive Tonner Edward, courtesy of the Tonner email newsletter that I subscribe to religiously:




The hair is rather meek, and for a full $129 I wish it had more accessories than "a shirt,"* but it does seem to have the black eyes to indicate "hunger" (~*EXCITING VARIATION!*~), and I have to say? This is the least horrifying/most accurate product image of the character that they've put up yet. I mean, compared to my doll's prototype pictures.

* YOU'RE KILLING ME HERE, PEOPLE. IT'S THE SAME DOLL, EXCEPT THIS TIME IT'S DEPRESSED. IT HAS LESS STUFF THAN THE FIRST ONE; IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A JACKET. YOU CAN'T THROW IN SOME EXTRA CLOTHES? A SPARKLE VENEER? A TINY MOUNTAIN LION? COME ON.

I mention this specifically just to let y'all know not to worry about trying to get one for me (as I'd previously asked--for someone to snag one at the convention, and I would have paid them back). I'd like to get one, but I think I'm going to get my bargain hunter on and go to eBay after the convention. Besides, like I said last time, no one would have any way of knowing who else might or might not have snagged one, and I'd end up with seven Edward v2s WHO HAVE NO ACCESSORIES and no way to pay everyone back.


Also: WHOA BLACK CANARY. They really need to lay off using the Lara Croft body (literally, that is the Lara Croft body sculpt) on every single flippin' DC doll.

Geez Louise! I thought it would have more stuff! Oh no. :/

Black Canary looks like Tori Spelling in that pic...at least the face does.

Oh Dinah. I feel compelled to make a "huge tracts of land" comment.

(Seriously, she looks like she shouldn't be able to stand. Especially not in the heels Canary wears!)

Does he at least sparkle? I could forgive some vampy add-ons for a little sparkle motion.

Black canary? I thought that was Rosalie.

I have no interest in ever owning a Twilight doll, but I would buy an Edward in a second if it came with a tiny mountain lion. Perhaps with a bit of removable neck...like those Jurassic Park toys from a while ago that had "battle damage"?

And Black Canary. Wow. She's got huge...boots.

That Black Canary doll is horrifying.

[identity profile] life-on-queen.livejournal.com 2009-07-09 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, COME ON, PPL! Black Canary is supposed to be a master martial artist - how can you do a spin kick in a push-up bra?! One turn and you'd pop out and beat yourself unconscious with your own boob! Think, ppl, think!

Okay, if you hadn't SAID that was Black Canary, even the fishnets wouldn't have clued me in.

He's so plain! Just get another Regularward and paint his eyes black.

I'm not seeing much of a resemblance to RPattz there.

You know, the least they could do is give him a nice, big ... ahem ... *cough* ... well, SOMETHING to indicate the "hunger" aspect. [g]

[identity profile] adelledae.livejournal.com 2009-07-09 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
so, would you be adding him in as a secret doll cast member eventually or just for your personal collection?

Please get a tiny Locke doll running around your shelf! hahaha, I can only imagine/hope...

the description is TERRIFYING. "EDWARD must fight his insatiable thirst for BELLA, no matter how Hungry he gets." capital H on hungry, even!

at least he has a...giant leather wrist...thing?

*i haz a sad*

The sight of the actual Black Canary doll has killed my desire to have the Black Canary doll.

Now, see, *this* is the doll all the people who were upset over the Barbie version should be shown to prove that they really had no idea what trashy looked like. Everything laces up? Thigh-high boots? LARA CROFT BOOBS?

*sigh*

IT'S THE SAME DOLL, EXCEPT THIS TIME IT'S DEPRESSED.

...I don't care if no one would get it, I want that on an icon. It made me LOL.

Hungry, Edward?

What IS IT with the language butchery this week?

[identity profile] eofs.livejournal.com 2009-07-09 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Your gallery with the Tonner Edward has "wah" in its url. This is oddly appropriate.

Is it sad when your first thought looking at a doll is "Oh those boobs are SO FAKE" before you realize the entire thing is fake? Any more endowed and she'd fall over. At least Barbie has hips to match.

[identity profile] roseredhoofbeat.livejournal.com 2009-07-10 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
Oh my freaking God, that doll looks exactly like my stepson. I am not even kidding. And he's a HUGE Twilight fan (look, don't ask me).

I'm sending this to his mom. LOL.

You know what's bad? I actually like the Barbie version of Black Canary better than the Tonner. D: WHY DOES SHE LOOKS LIKE BARB WIRE? *headdesk*

[identity profile] nicolars.livejournal.com 2009-07-10 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Does Edward even wear all black like that in the movie? I don't recall it, that outfit seems a little too goth for Mr. Khaki.

[identity profile] dianesoprano.livejournal.com 2009-07-10 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
*looks at pictures* Dammit, now I'm going to start shipping Tonner Edward and Serafina. You know she could totally handle him too.

I saw "Hungry, Edward" and thought Hungry Eyes - which I guess kind of makes sense - and now the song is in my head and as it turns out, the lyrics kinda work too . .

Also, is it me or does Hungry Eyes Edward have unnaturally long legs? He looks a little - out of proportion to me.

Black Canary does not wear thigh high boots!

THAT DOLL IS OUT OF CONTINUITY!!!
