TONNER 2010 SUMMER LINE









I DO NOT LIKE THE ALICE

I DO NOT LIKE THE OUTFIT

ALTHOUGH IT IS NOT THE WORST ONE IN NEW MOON

THE ONE THAT LOOKED LIKE THE PAINTER'S SMOCK

IN VOLTERRA

MAYBE THE NEXT PROTOTYPE PICTURE WILL BE BETTER

MAYBE I CAN MESS THE HAIR UP


(ETA: Okay, look, people. "I can mess the hair up" means I will be buying it anyway, because I love Alice. If I am really sincerely angry about something, I will not express that in capslock. Capslock is for exaggerating and playing things up. It's not one of the outfits I did like, but I can live with it. I suspect they will fix the hair to be more flipped out and quietly change the picture on the site. It's a cute doll as it is, but it's frustrating, in a not-that-it-really-matters way, to see them get the Galadriel so right and then mess up something as key as the hair--a major Alice feature--on this one and give it one of the less-interesting outfits. People asked me to report my initial gut reaction when I saw it. So I did. But it's okay.)


A quick rundown:

Twilight: Oh God, the new Bella likeness is... no. (I will totally buy the outfit if someone sells it separately.) We're holding steady with the Edward likeness, although the gaze is SUPER INTENSE. Nice suit, though.

Lord of the Rings: Besides the Galadriel, there's a Legolas, but no pictures yet. I still crave the Arwen, even though the dress isn't entirely movie-accurate, because it is pretty.

Firefly: You can see the Inara, but it is sold out. I think they said they'd be doing a different one later.

Prince of Persia: As previously revealed. I would totally go for the Tamina if it was the full princess/priestess outfit with all the veils.

Jonah Hex: Really? Really?

THAT IS THE DRESS THAT I WANTED.

I was hoping they'd just skip to one of the Eclipse outfits, because I saw one that wasn't too terrible. Or even the outfit she's wearing at the beginning of the movie in school! Although that was kind of smocky.

I didn't like this outfit, but still: it's not the worst one.

Wasn't there some trouble with Ashley Greene approving the face sculpt? Because AG is a very pretty girl, and this doll...not so much. It doesn't look like her and it just isn't very attractive.

The clothes are okay. It could be a lot worse. At least it isn't a smock.

The Galadriel is beyond breathtaking. Wow. If you get it, will you switch out your current SLOD Galadriel for this one? In other words, will you recast the part?

Didn't she say she had too many doubles running around? I can't imagine how hard it would be to NOT include that doll, though.

Off topic, I just looked at the Edward. Oh... Every. single. thing about that doll is hilarious.

Nah, I couldn't. I love Toy Biz Galadriel too much. I'll just have to keep the Tonner LOTRs off-story for myself.
