I had considered myself the Director because sometimes it seems that the dolls and action figures could have "minds" of their own. While I was there, they acted the roles I gave them. When I left, who's to say what they did?<br /><br />Hark, there goes the Twilight Zone theme ... ;-DD7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-81999828537743616842009-07-15T23:19:24.650-04:002009-07-15T23:19:24.650-04:00we get to play gods with dolls! weeee! in a way it...we get to play gods with dolls! weeee! in a way it's a bit depressing...

I've re-classified his ethnicity to Black in my DAF community. As collector-creators, we have the power to do that.<br /><br />I am guessing - please correct my error if I am wrong - that you intend the second Cali Christie to become a Filipino doll? I just LOVE her hair - it's so soft coarse and such a pretty color. I look forward to seeing your repaint of her and how you redress her.D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-460152664154409882009-06-19T01:10:38.622-04:002009-06-19T01:10:38.622-04:00I like her.
