Tulabelle is one of the 16" doll lines from Integrity Toys - she's supposed to be Poppy Parker's granddaughter, working as a famous fashion blogger. It is characterized by the modern, often eccentric fashions the dolls wear. Up until now, the doll shared a sculpt with Fashion Teen Poppy Parker, with a more modern look applied. Now, she has a new face. The sculpt has changed to look more adult. As the line's designer, David Buttry said:
We know that whenever we make a change to a head sculpt it can be controversial, but we wanted to make this change to the Tulabelle character as we felt that it was time to age her slightly to give us more fashion options and choices. We gave Tulabelle a new head sculpt with more realistic proportions and details. We hope that you'll love the new head sculpt as much as we do.
The proportions may look fine but the face does look bland and a bit weird. It is if Poppy and Hanne Erikson had a child together. It's good for my wallet though. I like some of the separate fashions and accessories but nothing so much that I'd buy a doll for it. The make up on the dolls though is fantastic - I hope we get to see it on other lines too.
