At last -- found the Diego and Roberta set I had been seeking for months. Gotcha. He's all mine, he's all mine, mine, mine. The doll, of course, not the real actor-singer playing the Diego part. The doll Diego doesn't strongly resemble the actor-singer Diego. Shrug. The doll Diego is still a new cute male so he's welcome.
The Roberta doll in this set seems to resemble the actor-singer playing the Roberta part more than the other dolls I have. Her right hand seems to have lifted to touch Diego's left hand. Awwww .... Maybe I should leave them "together?"
Note: check to see if the other RBD couples touch hands. I don't think that they do or did.
Where did I find my new dynamic duo? Norristown Walmart. This wonderful Walmart also had the other RBD sets: Miguel and Mia and Giovanni and Lupita.

New Prince in Kelly Line
New guy in town: Prince in the Kelly -- Barbie's Little Sister -- line. He's got brown rooted hair with a side-part and gray-blue eyes. He wears a white satin shirt and black pants. There's a red velvet ribbon draped across his chest and a silver sash at his waist.
Then again, this new charmer might not be so new after all. His box is dated 2005. I don't recall seeing him online although he might have made an appearance on one of the Kelly-focused groups.
I found this prince at the Conway's on 69th Street, in Upper Darby.

New Mixis Dolls Coming -- Emerald and Houda
I placed an order for the Limited Edition Emerald and the Sunset Edition Houda from Gile Toys online. I have two words for my excuse: free shipping. Emerald has black "leather" boots like Rosa's brown ones. Houda has espadrilles and a purse.
I don't want this exciting doll series to close out without me having the dolls and the outfits I want. I lost out on the G-Five series, and they were local. Sigh. No, hooray! Two more Mixis!

Halloween Photos
Rosa and Opal badger Hassan to wear a Superman costume while two Halloween Kellys add their pleas.
Brenda and Patience review the Halloween schedule in the presence of some of the youthful revellers.
Brenda is a Bbi Perfect Body African American Action figure while Patience is a Antique Dreaming Momoko. Brenda wears a pullover borrowed from Hasbro's Ashley (Maxie) and pull-on pants borrowed from G-Five's Isabella. Patience wears her original Momoko fashion.

Taylor Swift Doll at Walmart.com
The new Taylor Swift fashion dolls are shown online here:
Taylor Swift doll
The doll of the young country music singer costs $14.96. From the online photos, the same smiling doll appears wearing your choice of one of three outfits from the singer's "real life" wardrobe. The outfits are cute -- a white or light blue eyelet sundress, a red-white horizontal striped fitted mini dress with attached hoodie, a fuchsia halter dress, and a gold sequined mini dress with a separate pale gold full skirt to make the mini dress, evening wear. I like the gold cowboy boots and the gold heels. I can't see what kind of footwear she has with the fuchsia dress because it blends in with her opaque black stockings.
The doll herself is fairly attractive. Her head is a little large the way character dolls can be -- maybe the doll designers need more space to model realistic features? -- but her head isn't as large as the Gwen Stefani dolls or the Ashley Tisdale dolls. I've seen those two dolls at Toys R Us.
If you check Google and hit the Shopping option, you'll find Taylor Swift Performance Collection Singing Dolls. These dolls are available on eBay. They wear formal gowns and carry guitars.
I'll have to add at least one Taylor Swift doll to my collection.

Alvin Ailey Barbie at Target in Springfield
The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Barbie was at the Target on Baltimore Avenue, Springfield. This is the first time I have seen the actual doll. Very long and thick eyelashes. It looks as though she is set in an arched back dance pose, which is pretty enough although I would prefer a doll that can be adjusted to different positions. Then again, she might be simply posed and easily posed in other -- less dramatic positions -- but I could not tell. I'll wait to hear from others or to see her deboxed elsewhere.
