Meet Joanie! Part Two!

Hola! 

Sorry for the delay with this and the 10,000 other things we planned on posting about this week/this month. Holidays require planning, planning, planning and working, working, working. Aren't they fun?

Housekeeping: Many of the FDC Entrants have already sent in all of their materials.... but..... for everyone else....

REMINDER ALL FDC Entrants -- Your Second Outfit Final Product Shots are due this Friday, November 16th. 

However, we will be flexible with this. We won't be able to load all of the second outfits until after (US) Thanksgiving. So we are asking for your patience on that. It will take us a week to load everyone's work and we want to group the launch all together so no one has extra time to get more votes than anyone else. All second outfits should be on view the first week of December for voting.

But be sure to send in your second outfit final shots when you have them ready. 

You can't win unless we have those shots.

Back to Joanie!

Here she is in a blonde Blythe wig that we can't even remember buying. 

Yes, we are that senile.

Joanie calls this wig her "Pageant Hair."

Here is it pulled up in pigtails.

We said this on Facebook, but we will say it here again:

Joanie, the #3 option from the AG Doll Hospital Dolls Without Hair program, is the most perfect Sonali mold doll we have. We aren't talking about the skin tone, so don't jump to that conclusion.

It is her eyes. Doll eyes are the one thing we obsess about obsessively.

(Yes we repeated that on porpoise.)

We are that person who looks at every # ___ MyAG in an AG store until we find the one with the most perfect eyes. If we can't find one, we don't buy that # MyAG.

For the Sonali mold, it tends to have a wide-eyed look with a lot of visible white (sclera) around the iris. So she looks surprised or shocked.

Our Sonali looks this way. Our Cecile (CeCe) has this issue slightly. Our #47 (Needa) is kinda like this as well -- but less so.

Joanie doesn't have that wide-eyed "OMG!" expression.

Her eyes are even. One isn't bigger than the other. One doesn't look in one direction while the other looks away. Her eyelashes are straight. She doesn't look down at the ground.

If you think we are crazy, we probably are. But we really did look at every Cecile doll at the Chicago store to find the perfect one. Every single one we looked at except for one had issues with her eyes or eyelashes. Maybe a normal consumer wouldn't notice, but we did.

So yes, we were that person who annoyed the AG floor personnel by opening every Cecile box and looking at her eyes like a psycho. But they should be used to this by now.

And we did the same thing for Needa in Los Angeles.

Those people love us in that store.
We consistently ask them to look in the back for more dolls so we can examine their eyes.
The AGPLA personnel will probably all hide when they see us walk into the store next time. ;-)

Needless to say, after that long rant above......

If every #3 looks as good as Joanie, we highly recommend her and are telling you to order her if you want her. She is flawless and I think the Doll Hospital People/Designers really did this one right. 

Applause. Applause. Applause.

This was one of the very few, and very wonderful, times when we opened a doll box shipped direct from AG and said aloud, "She is perfect!"

Joanie really is quite perfect.

This doll is a winner ladies and gentlemen and we can't wait to show her off more on the blog (when we finally have free time to take mo' pics.)

Thanks for visiting us today!!!

Let us know if you have any questions. :-)
