Integrity Toys 2024 convention - Stilettos Out day 1: Nu Face Seven Style Lab

As mentioned in the previous post, the Souvenir Shop of the Stilettos Out convention also had the Style Lab dolls, which were all NU Face this year. As per the Integrity Toys email:

For this year’s NU. Face Seven Style Lab, it was a NU. Face fan's fantasy come to life as IT designer extraordinaire Jessy Ayala invited convention attendees to take part in the ultimate heist! What if the NU. Face Agency’s elite team of models had been hired to mastermind and conduct a top-secret mission to obtain the complicated components of a highly advanced device laced with diamonds, working for a mysterious client they had never met in person? In this exciting adventure tale, your favourite NU. Face models got to wear fabulous clothes and take part in the most covert scheme they’ve ever undertaken together!

Prototypes of each doll/fashion figure and each outfit were displayed for all attendees to view and help them purchase the ones they wanted, since the actual dolls they were buying had not arrived. Each doll in the Style Lab is always sold nude; outfits are sold separately.- but from what I read on social media, you had to buy one outfit for each nude doll you got. Total price was $150.00 for a doll and an outfit together: $65 per doll and $85 per outfit. Still no mention anywhere of what had happened, no admission of any fault or mistake, no apology.Which I am guessing was advised by their legal representative as a way to avoid complications. Still, it sucks.

There was a Special Bonus Build-A-Doll thing incorporated into the Style Lab this year, just like in 2018. Each doll and each outfit included a bonus "build-a-doll" component that allowed purchasers to put together an additional, complete NU. Face dressed doll when the entire collection is purchased. That was Violaine, who you can see further below in this article.

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit FR Homme 1.5 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion figures.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Lukas looks edgy as always, ready to hit the town. I can’t say I am thrilled with the silver flocked hair - I’d rather have it pale blonde or white instead. It takes a blueish tone that does not look that good to me. His suit is probably inspired by McQueen - cut out suits have been shown on men and women in the brand’s collections fairly recently.The high heel ruins the look for me - it gives of summer lover sleaziness.

Item # 82183

No. 2

Erin Salston™ Nude Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Erin 2.0

Precious Gems Fashion Pack

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Erin looks gorgeous in this version, especially with her honey ginger hair. She has the screening of Your Motivation Erin but modified. The dress print echoes the coat of When In Paris Poppy. Love the shoes and choker necklace.Her whole styling gives me strong Blanche Epiphanie vibes - she was the heroine of a french comic series.

Item # 82180

No. 3

Nadja Rhymes™ Nude Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Nadja 2.0

Item # 82191

Diamond Deception Fashion Pack

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Nadja is a mishmash of the Enchantress and Out Of Sight Nadja dolls, which means she’s becoming really popular to collectors! I’m not that keen on the blueish eye-shadow though. The outfight is a glamorous extravaganza that elevates the whole set (if you bought them together) into perfection! Just imagine how enthusiastically would club members have accepted Adrenaline Rush Dominique if she was wearing something like that. Brilliant style and execution Jessy!

Item # 82181

No. 4

Colette Duranger™ Nude Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Colette 1.0

Body Type: NF 3.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled And Articulated Ankle

Skin Tone: Sunkissed

Hair Color: Sandy Blonde

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Colette Is Wearing:

Item # 82190

Wild Rush Fashion Pack

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

The original Colette (and Nadja) sculpt returns with a sultry look - have we seen her so sexy and seductive before? The outfit is country and western glam, with lots of people commenting that it was inspired by Beyoncé and her Cowboy Carter looks. But the first of those looks were released on February (for the two singles) of this year and I do not think they had the time to design, approve and make the doll so fast. Or could they?

Item # 82182

No. 5

Ayumi Nakamura™ Nude Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Ayumi 3.0

Body Type: NF 3.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled And Articulated Ankle

Skin Tone: Cream

Hair Color: Auburn

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Ayumi Is Wearing:

Item # 82187

Inside Info Fashion Pack

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Ayumi is cute - but I would have preferred a fierce Ayumi. Her hair makes her look like another version of Hauntingly Lovely Ayumi and she even has the same colours in her screening - but side by side they look different.I love her dress, it could have fit with the Reckless collection styled with different items. Which says it all about this outfit.

Item # 82179

No. 6

Thiago Valente™ Nude Fashion Figure

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Thiago

Body Type: FR Homme 1.5

Skin Tone: A-Tone

Hair Color: Dark Brunette With Painted Sides

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Thiago Is Wearing:

Item # 82186

Tech Skills Fashion Pack

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit FR Homme 1.5 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion figures.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Thiago must be the winner of the popularity contest in the Style Lab dolls, judging by the reactions of everyone online. He’s a gorgeous doll and looks amazing with or without his sporty outfit. From that I love the boots and high socks, gloves and bag. Can we stop it with the convertible pants already? It has been overused, abused maybe.

Item # 82184

No. 7

Rayna Ahmadi™ Nude Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Rayna

Body Type: NF 3.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled And Articulated Ankle

Skin Tone: Blush

Hair Color: Platinum Blonde

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Rayna Is Wearing:

Item # 82188

Scope Out Fashion Pack

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Rayna goes mod! With this style she could be a friend of Poppy’s! She does remind me a bit of Silver Cloud Poppy - maybe it’s the Edie Sedgwick look they both share. Love the bag.Her screening is the same as Eye Candy Rayna’s.

So who is the mysterious Build-A-Doll? Those who purchased the entire Style Lab collection received all the components to complete a special bonus mystery dressed doll. Once all of the components are collected and put together, attendees will have the "Criminal Kitty" Violaine Perrin dressed doll. There was also a build-an-accessory item, from “diamond” encrusted pieces also included with every box. What it is? The mystery thickens…

Item # 82183B

Criminal Kitty

Violaine Perrin™ Build-A-Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Violaine/Vanessa 2.0

Body Type: NF 3.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Japan

Hair Color: Garnet Red

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Designed By Jessy Ayala

What a gorgeous Violaine doll! I love her burgundy hair contrasting her pale skin, her smoky eyes and pale lip combination. Her overall styling is, as shown by her Criminal Kitty name, inspired by Catwoman, especially the Julie Newmar version. I love her lace bodysuit and satin wrap mini skirt. Her arm bag is of course Dolly by Balenciaga.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Prototypes shown throughout this email, final products may vary. Mugshot signs and other props are not included. These collectibles are meant for adult collectors ages 15 and up only.

IMPORTANT: All nude dolls/figures and outfits are sold separately; no doll stand or mugshot card included.

Integrity Toys 2019 Convention: Live From Fashion Week - Day 1

The 2019 Integrity Toys Live From Fashion Week convention opened officially this week in Baltimore and once again, this blog will be bringing you all the new dolls and outfits, as products become available at the convention throughout the weekend. This year's theme is all about fashion, and with the exception of the Poppy Parker Style Lab (which celebrates the 10th anniversary of Poppy Parker), every exclusive doll offered at the event, whether in the convention collection, salesroom, centerpieces or giveaways, is inspired by either Spring, Resort, Summer, Fall or Winter fashion weeks as follows:

Poppy Parker is Fashion Week Spring/Summer 1967

Fashion Royalty is Fashion Spring/Summer 2020

Monarchs is Fashion Week Resort 2020

East 59th is Fashion Week Fall/Winter 1956

The Industry is Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2020

NU. Face is Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2020

Dolls from the Fashion Royalty® Collection and the NU. Face™ Collection were designed by Jessy Ayala, the East 59th® Collection by Chris Stoeckel, The Monarchs Homme by Vaughn Sawyers and the Poppy Parker™ Collection by David Buttry.

The convention registration started on Wednesday for the attendees who arrived early and they all received "Fresh Perspective" Baroness Agnes Von Weiss in their welcome bag. The bag had Powder Puff Poppy Parker printed on it, celebrating Poppy’s 10th anniversary.

Note: All dolls pictured in these photos are prototypes; final colors and textures may vary slightly.

Item # 91467 

Fresh Perspective

Baroness Agnes Von Weiss™

Welcome Doll

The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention:

Live From Fashion Week

Edition Size: 700

Head Sculpt: Agnes Von Weiss

Body Type: FR

Foot Sculpt: High Heel

Skin Tone: Hungarian 

Hair Color: Caramel Blonde

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

I’m not crazy about this version of the Baroness. She’s beautiful but I find her make up too pronounced and candy coloured to like (it looks more prominent in real life photos). Her outfit and accessories remind me of Going Public Eugenia. And, as you will see below, most of the dolls in this convention so far, remind me of older releases. I don’t know if it is due to the production problems that troubled Integrity Toys this year or simple lack of inspiration, but I’m a bit underwhelmed by what I’m seeing in the first convention day, with a couple of notable exceptions.

The Integrity Toys Souvenir Shop and The Style Lab opened for business on Thursday. Let’s see the offerings that can be found in the Souvenir Shop - that is, the Convention collection and the shop exclusives.

Convention Collection:

Item # 91468

English Rose

Eugenia Perrin-Frost™ Dressed Doll

The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Convention Collection

Edition Size: 700

Head Sculpt: Eugenia Perrin-Frost

Body Type: FR

Foot Sculpt: High Heel

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Color: Raven

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

Cute but it’s like Vivacité with another skintone. The total would look completely washed out, save for the raven hair and brightly coloured shoes. The blouse looks beautiful but the skirt does not do it justice. Where is Ferré when you need him!

Item # 91469

Spring Romance

Adèle Makéda™ Dressed Doll

The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Convention Collection

Edition Size: 700

Head Sculpt: Adèle 1.0

Body Type: FR

Foot Sculpt: High Heel

Skin Tone: Dark A-Tone

Hair Color: Raven (Flocked)

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

She look a lot like her sister from the Faces of Adéle giftset. From the waist up she gives me Adut Akech vibes in Valentino. The pants are not to my liking, they needed a more fluid fabric to work properly. Love the bag and hat, her accessories in general are superb.

Item # 82121

London Show

Nadja Rhymes™ Dressed Doll

The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Convention Collection

Edition Size: 700

Head Sculpt: Nadja 2.0

Body Type: NU. Face

Foot Sculpt: High Heel

Skin Tone: Japan

Hair Color: Pale Honey Blonde

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

She’s fantastic! People have been clamouring for ages for a light coloured version of the Afroamerican Integrity Toys sculpts and the result is breathtaking. Her outfit is gorgeous too, reminding me of the OOAK Bow Down Nadja from the 2017 convention.

Item # PP153

Young Romantic

Poppy Parker™ Dressed Doll

The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Convention Collection

Edition Size: 700

Head Sculpt: Poppy Parker

Body Type: Poppy Parker

Foot Sculpt: High Heel and Articulated Ankle (Comes With Both)

Skin Tone: Hungarian

Hair Color: Warm Dark Brown

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

I’m not against romantically styled dolls, but they have to be styled in a certain way. This is not it. Very renaissance looking, a little modern Juliet, looking for her Romeo. The extra flat feet and sandals only accentuate the effect.

Item # PP154

Kimono Go Go

Poppy Parker™ Dressed Doll

The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Convention Collection

Edition Size: 700

Head Sculpt: Poppy Parker

Body Type: Poppy Parker

Foot Sculpt: Articulated Ankle

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Color: Platinum

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

What a beautiful face! The only thing bothering me are the orangey brows. Her hairstyle and earrings are straight from the fashion magazines of the sixties. Her kimono though is not up to par. The huge obi distorts her silhouette in an ungainly way.

Item # 73012

Winter Shimmer

Lady Aurelia Grey™ Dressed Doll

The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Convention Collection

Edition Size: 400

Head Sculpt: Lady Aurelia Grey

Body Type: E59

Foot Sculpt: High Heel

Skin Tone: Light Honey

Hair Color: Raven

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

The last doll of the convention collection is a new Aurelia. Blue seems to be a favourite colour for her. She looks regal and I love her jewellery. Not enough to want her for my collection though. The hairstyle is a bit off for her era though, it was popular in the next decade. Not many accessories but killer gloves.

The convention salesroom had a few more dolls available for collectors, with a new sculpt and character of - gasp! - older age debuting in the Industry line.

NEW CHARACTER!

Item # 88060

That's All

Plum Powers™ Dressed Doll

The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Salesroom Exclusive

Edition Size: 400

Head Sculpt: Plum Powers

Body Type: The Industry

Foot Sculpt: High Heel

Skin Tone: Cream

Hair Color: Platinum/Silver Mix

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

She’s so obviously inspired by Iris Apfel but she also has a bit of the legendary fashion editor of Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, Carrie Donovan, who had trademark huge glasses too. Want her! And her croc imitation Kelly style bag is to die for.

Item # 88061

Devil Made Me Do It

Tulabelle True™ Dressed Doll

The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Salesroom Exclusive

Edition Size: 400

Head Sculpt: Tulabelle True 2.0

Body Type: The Industry

Foot Sculpt: High Heel

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Color: Warm Dark Brown

Eyelashes: Yes

Quickswitch: No

We can see the new Tulabelle sculpt better now, I still cannot warm up to her. She looks so smug I want to punch her, LOL! Not sure about the asymmetrical jacket. I’d like it better if the asymmetry was also at her collar.

Item # 21012

Art Of Manliness

Darius Reid™ Dressed Doll

The 2019 Integrity Toys Convention: Live From Fashion Week Salesroom Exclusive

Edition Size: 500

Head Sculpt: Darius 2.0

Body Type: The Monarchs Homme

Foot Sculpt: The Monarchs Homme

Skin Tone: Nubian

Hair Color: None

Eyelashes: None

Quickswitch: No

One of the oldest and most loved characters makes his appearance again! Darius has a new sculpt, not a gorgeous as the previous one though. He look more like Tyson Beckford now. The hot pink suit is lovely. He has nice accessories too, plus a hat and an earring. And yes, the ugly sneaker trend has hit the Monarchs too. Must add that titling your male doll The Art Of Manliness in 2019 and the era of #MeToo and LGTB+ rights is a bit weird.

Integrity Dolly Days 2016: the Nu Face 2016 Collection unveil: Reckless

The final day of the Dolly Days event had a major unveil: the new 2016 Nu Face Collection: Reckless. This was hinted during the 2016 convention in Chicago. I think it is the most complete Nu Face collection revealed so far, especially with the new bodies. All the dolls are available to pre-order now at IT authorised dealers (remember that the W Club had a day's advance notice so there might not be so many left now) except Eden, which will be an IT Direct for next year, via lottery. Dolls will arrive next year.

For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. 

What a beautiful Erin. One of the best dolls in this collection. Indeed she looks like she owns everything. It is my third favourite, and would have gotten her if I had a bigger budget (I had to limit myself to two dolls). 

Item # 82071

She slays it allright! Nadja here looks like a blaxploitation 70s film star - or a guest star in The Get Down TV mini-series. Even better, she could be in Empire or Luke Cage. If I had to make a list, she's be my 4th favourite in this collection. That choker! Those boots!

Item # 82072

For adult collectors ages 15 and up only.

Rayna is thankfully back to her good old self with this release - and she's my top favourite of the bunch. So it seems I am finally getting a Rayna! Love the artsy, re-invented French bohemian look.

Item # 82073

For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. 

This is my second favourite doll in the collection - what an amazing version of Ayumi. The colours. the hair, the outfit, all look amazing - even though her coat is a bit weird. Love the choker and purse. And also love that she looks completely different than her previous versions.

Item # 82074

Doll Tech Specs

Head Sculpt: Eden

Body Type: NU. Face 2.0

Skintone: Japan

Hair Color: Soft Copper Red

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-Applied

Quickswitch: No

This 12.5-inch fully articulated doll features fully rooted hair and comes dressed in a custom made layered skirt, with  laser cut "faux-charred" effect at the hem, a faux-leather jacket, a quilted backpack purse, chunky black heels, black thigh-high socks, black leather cut-off gloves, a jewellery set, a doll stand and a certificate of authenticity. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. 

I already have an Eden with this colouring so I am not crazy about her and the outfit is not up to par with the previous ones, despite the charred laser cut effect. Love the back-pack: I am surprised it took them so long to release a doll with one, as it is all the rage for two seasons now. Remember this is an IT Direct doll and is not available to pre-order through dealers.

Item # 82075

AKA Gigi

Giselle Diefendorf™ Dressed Doll

The NU. Face™ Collection

Approximate Ship Date: Early Spring 2017

Limited Edition Size: 600 Dolls Only

Doll Tech Specs

Head Sculpt: Giselle D.

Body Type: NU. Face 2.0

Skintone: FR White

Hair Color: Midnight Brown

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-Applied

Quickswitch: No

This 12.5-inch fully articulated doll, features fully rooted hair and comes complete with an outfit which is composed of distressed cropped jeans with zipper detail, a blouse with a laser cut "faux-charred" effect on the scarf, a faux-leather bustier/belt, a black beret and veil, a quilted purse, a pair of yellow pumps, alternate "painted glove" hands, a jewellery set, a doll stand and a certificate of authenticity. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only.

At firts I saw a dark haired Giselle and thought "now I can have my own substitute Glam Addict". But nope. She's too tame for that. In fact she reminds me more of Lilith than Giselle. Not a bad thing but... And again the charred laser cut looks weird. I get the style, but I don't like it.

Doll Days of Summer: The new Nu Face collection revealed!

Today Integrity Toys officially unveiled to collectors (yesterday for W Club members) the much anticipated Nu Face return collection. Even though the first dolls from this line were presented last year at the Gloss convention, this is the first release for the general public, through dealers. Do not wait, contact your Integrity Toys authorize dealer to pre-order today, as some of these dolls could already be sold out (or ready to be). IT named it a capsule collection. Indeed there are only 5 dolls included, and much to my surprise (and I bet most people's too), no sign of the twins, Eden and Lilith. Colette is absent too as well as Annik. Are they reserved for the convention? We'll see. The look of the fashions is very Versace circa early 90s, from the cuts to the colours to the earrings, without the over-embellishing, which I like a lot. Let's go check out the five beauties who made it.

Item # 82050
Voltage
Erin S.™ Dressed Doll
The Nu. Face™ Collection
Limited Edition Size of 800 Dolls
Retail Price: $135.00 + Shipping & Handling
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately Late Fall/Early Winter 2015

Doll Tech Specs:
Head Sculpt: Erin 2.0
Body Type:  Nu.Face 2.0
Quick Switch Feature: No
Skin Tone: Japan
Hair Color: Strawberry Blond
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied

Erin S. is a fully articulated 12-inch vinyl doll with long, rooted hair and hand applied eyelashes. She comes dressed in high-waist skinny trousers with faux-leather waistband detail, a vibrant red long-sleeve crop top and a grey fleece jacket. She completes her look with laced-up faux-leather heels and an oversized bag. For adult collectors ages 15 and up. Doll cannot stand alone; stand included.

To say Erin is the best doll of this collection would be an understatement. I love everything about her, from the gorgeous outfit (which would be perfect if the coat was in black taffeta and lined with the same red of the top) to the doll's face (she has an amazing expression) and make up. And strawberry blond hair with a Japan skintone? Bring it on! The lovely bag, shoes and earrings, plus two non-descript bangles, complete the outfit perfectly. 

Item # 82051
Polarity
Nadja R.™ Dressed Doll
The Nu. Face™ Collection
Limited Edition Size of 600 Dolls
Retail Price: $135.00 + Shipping & Handling
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately Late Fall/Early Winter 2015

Doll Tech Specs:
Head Sculpt: Nadja 2.0 (New Sculpt!)
Body Type:  Nu.Face 2.0
Quick Switch Feature: No
Skin Tone: Dark A-Tone
Hair Color: Midnight Black
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied

Nadja R. is a fully articulated 12-inch vinyl doll with long, middle-parted, fully rooted hair and hand applied eyelashes. Nadja is wearing a contrasting outfit composed of a bright yellow criss-cross long-sleeved cropped top worn with a faux-leather intricately draped mini-skirt. Ms. Rhymes completes her look with a faux-leather and faux-fur jacket, zipped high-heeled booties and a swank bright orange over-sized leather tote. For adult collectors ages 15 and up. Doll cannot stand alone; stand included.

Nadja has always been my favourite Nu Face doll (even though Colette has the same sculpt, she did not click with me like the much more outré and edgy Nadja did) and I was anxiously waiting to see what the new sculpt would look like. I am on the fence about it, seeing the promo photos here, and will wait to have the actual doll in hand to make my final judgement. I can easily say though that she is wearing the second best outfit of the collection. One detail I hope will be different in the final doll though: the uneven hair ends. Although easily corrected with a snip of my scissors, it is not something I expect to see in a doll in this price range.

Does this Ayumi look like a twin of the Gloss convention one or what? I still think the original sculpt was much better looking, but she is a beauty in her own right. She's the third lady from this collection to be coming home. She's also the only one not wearing anything brightly coloured. All dolls wear separates, which means great possibilities of mix-and-match for all.

Dominique never did it for me, in any incarnation, and this is no exception. The dress looks like a bad version of the Herve Leger Barbie black and white outfit, which is  not good at all. Lovely eyes though.

Giselle D. is a fully articulated 12-inch vinyl doll with long, wavy, rooted hair and hand applied eyelashes. Giselle's look is composed of a high-contrast, black lace top with draped satin detail and brooch at the front, midi-skirt and a perfectly cinched shaved faux-fur jacket. For adult collectors ages 15 and up. Doll cannot stand alone; stand included.

The doll that I was expecting to be the star of this collection, is easily the biggest disappointment (personal opinion). I do not like the make up at all, it makes her look weird, more like a cheap imitation of Agnes than her rebellious stylish younger sister. The top is something that Nolan Miller dreamt about in one of his nightmares: only Alexis Carrington Colby could pull this off and that would be back in 1980. Giselle is usually the first character of Nu Face to usually be sold out, so I am happy I do not like this one at all, it saved me the trouble of hunting her all over the place. The bag and booties are amazing though (but are the exact same as Nadja's), as well as the triangular earrings.

Nu Face is coming this weekend!

The Nu.Face Collection returned, after a long absence, to the Integrity Toys fold, during the Gloss Convention last Fall, with a new body, new sculpts for some dolls (Ayumi 3.0) and some gorgeous dolls to boot. A proper general release collection is probably the most anticipated release this year coming from IT (maybe bar the still unseen AHS collection). Finally, the wait is (almost) over.

Approximately at noon Eastern Time (New York Time) on Saturday, June 27th, 2015, the W Club will send out an email to all W Club members containing all of the details about the new Nu Face collection. They send us members a sneak peek to one of the dolls, the new version of Nadja. She's less cartoon-y then her previous face but less edgy as well. Still, a beautiful doll, but not the Nadja I was expecting to see. I will try to get her though. Curious to see the rest of the collection. I am betting that Giselle, the twins (Eden and Lilith), Erin and Ayumi will make the cut. What would you like to see?

Dealers are prohibited from taking any orders right now. The collection will open to the general public on Sunday, June 28th at approximately Noon Eastern time (it will be posted on the official IT site and on Facebook).
