This past Saturday, I would have attended the International Black Doll Show and Sale, but it did not happen this year. Sigh. I mention that Show because that was the first and the only time that I saw a Dennis Rodman doll. That Dennis Rodman wore a wedding gown. Moving on - to avoid offending any DR fans out there who read here - there is a new Dennis Rodman figure by Storm Toy Collectibles.
Storm Toy Collectibles makes collector quality action figures. You can read about them on their website or like them on their Facebook page.
This figure is bigger and articulated unlike the doll Dennis. Even if you have no interest in Dennis Rodman, you might want to check this figure out. The approximately 35 mm figure has 10 different hair sculpts, 11 interchangeable palms, a long fur vest, gold pants, flag briefs, a muscular body build, sunglasses, and other incredible, well-made accessories. The price is as you would imagine - "up there," lol. His pre-order cost is $214.99. Postage is $43.00 (not included in the pre-order/sale price). But you would have an extraordinary figure and accessories for that cost.
Me, I am NOT a fan - I am not/was never a sports enthusiast. Sports interrupted my soap operas back when I watched them. Hurray and enjoy to those who are sports or Dennis Rodman fans!
Also not to offend, but that doll looks 5x better than the actual person. They did a dang good job.
ReplyDeleteHi Muff!
ReplyDeleteLOL @"that doll looks 5x better" - it does.
It does look like him... at that price it should. I am not a sports enthusiast or Rodman fan. It is always good to know what's new, however. Thanks for informing.

Hi DBG!
ReplyDeleteLOL @"at that price it should." If I were able AND if I didn't have a knee jerk, "ew" reaction towards DR, I might have gone for something like that. Finances permitting. Oh, wait, there go my finances laughing hysterically. Sigh.
Amazing detail and lots of accessories but I must admit, I had to read the details of the doll to know who Dennis Rodman is. I guess some fame doesn't travel.
ReplyDeleteHi Carrickters and thanks, LOL. I should have included his background. I'm surprised I recognize him except I do based on his off-the-basketball-court activities.

I have the old cheap Dennis Rodman doll and I'm satisfied. This one is pretty cool, though, but not something that I would splurge on.
ReplyDeleteHi Roxanne! Being satisfied is a good place to be. I love the details on this figure, too. Not the figure himself though ;-)
ReplyDeleteI saw this doll on Toy Haven's blog. He looked so good that I was about ready to have them make a Ms. Leo doll!
ReplyDeleteHi Ms. Leo!
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree: ToyHaven shares some great figures. Good luck getting a mini Ms. Leo!
