OMG - She Does Exist: First Edition Houda in Denim Outfit

When I listed the Mixis dolls, I mentioned that only three of the original four dolls appeared in the First Edition (previously described as the Limited Edition here and elsewhere). Well, guess who now appears in the First aka Limited Edition and wearing a cute denim outfit? Houda!

Applause!

You can see the First Edition Houda on the Mixis website for $59.99 Canadian dollars OR for a reduced price at the Super Shopping Channel for $36.66 Canadian dollars. (Aside: I have submitted a query asking if this online vendor sells to customers outside of Canada like the U.S.A. or overseas; I have not heard back from them yet. Well, it is Saturday ;-D) This website might be a treat for those who want every doll in the series, here's your chance to add a second Houda to your collection. Please note though that if the First Edition Houda is like the other First Edition dolls, her elbows are straight.

The Super Shopping Channel also has some other Mixis dolls AND the outfits in sets of two for sale. Ah, new Mixis news.

New Doll Pairs at Walmart!

 

I have to admire the way Mattel can sell and re-sell their dolls. Not that they don't add new stuff like the stunning Victoria. But they have ways of moving old stuff ...

KMart Has New Stuff! Trumps Toys R Us

I was pleasantly surprised to find at the Market East Kmart these dolls:

Moxie Boyz, Jaxson and Owen

But my favorite was the Mattel [Barbie] Twilight Victoria:

I love her face screening and her gorgeous hair. Guess Jacob won't be my only Twilight doll.

Not Separated at Birth or Vitamin C Not from Mbili Facemold

Okay, everyone can agree: Dana needs her eyes examined.

In an earlier post, I included Vitamin C as one of the dolls created with the Mbili face mold. Please see the close-up photo below:



Hmmm ... I sit corrected. Vitamin C's face is a little longer and a little wider. I should have double-checked at Katti's Dolls website that shows the second Grand Entrance Barbie (2002) made with the Angel face and the Princess of South Africa Barbie made with the Mbili face mold.


Here Princess of South Africa and Vitamin C stand with Kayla. Kayla has a similar face mold to Vitamin C's Angel face mold. It would take me some time to differentiate them, but the face molds are listed separately. They are lovely dolls, aren't they?

New Toys R Us Express Store

A new Toys R Us Express store opened at 73 N. 69th Street this past Monday, August 16, 2010. This store will be the first dedicated toy store to this area since the K B Toys closed in 2008. Perhaps Toys R Us Express stores will open where KB Toys had existed. Wheee! More dedicated toy space.

(Important because someday I'm going to be on the buying end.)
