As I mentioned in another post, I am always seeking new links about 1:6 scale dolls and action figures. So I skimmed an article by Lee Odden called 6 Social Search Engines to Start 2009. Mr. Odden mentioned a social search engine that I had NOT used before, WhosTalkin?. Well, I clicked on the link and voila! in addition to my PhillyCollector blog, I netted another blog with an article on the Mixis dolls.
The article, Mixis Collectible Dolls Are Worldly In Their Fashion And Looks by Kris Abel in his blog, Tech Life: 21st Century Gadgets and Toys, provides information about the Mixis dolls AND lovely photos of the dolls and their sold separate outfits. Now I MUST get the Chinese and the Central American outfits after seeing photos of the outfits in their baggies and on some of the dolls.
