The new Meteor collection is a collaboration: Integrity Toys x Jason Kramer Designs!

Through a video presentation, Integrity Toys and the W Club unveiled a brand new Integrity Toys X Jason Kramer Designs collaboration. We knew that we would be seeing such a collaboration for this line soon, but now with which designer it would be. it was a welcome surprise as Jason is not only a great person but a very talented designer as well - we have already seen his work before on IT releases, one of them recently for Poppy Parker. For those who just discovered Jason, here is a brief bio:

Jason Kramer is a freelance costume designer and illustrator, living in Ashland, Oregon. He's been collecting and designing for fashion dolls since 2002. His favorite designers include Alexander McQueen, Valentino, and Jean-Paul Gaultier, among others.

The four dolls (two of them combined into a gift set) will be sold through a W Club lottery. Judging by the reactions during the presentation and social media, there will not be any left!

The Story:

With the album launch fast approaching, the Meteor was transformed into a vibrant celebration zone, thanks to its resident mixologist, Navia Phan. A master of her craft and Taliyah Harper's closest friend, Navia had created a dazzling array of cocktails that were as eclectic and captivating as the world beats on Taliyah’s new album. Each drink was an artistic triumph—infused with exotic flavors and garnished with imaginative touches that perfectly captured the spirit of the music.

But Navia’s magic didn’t stop at the bar. As the heartbeat of the party, she orchestrated an atmosphere of electrifying excitement and unrestrained joy. Her energy was contagious, ensuring that every guest felt the pulse of the night’s rhythm. With her flair and creativity setting the scene, the launch party was not just an event but a thrilling spectacle—a night where Taliyah’s music and Navia’s concoctions blended into an unforgettable celebration that would be remembered for years to come.

Included:

• 12.5-inch articulated doll with rooted hair and hand applied eyelashes;

• Sexy red mini-dress with front cut-out and oversized removable back bow detail;

I have never warmed up to Navia, no matter the styling or style she was released with. She mostly looked cartoon-y and half-finished to me - until now. Dialling the oomph factor up by 100%, Jason managed to make her sultry and fierce, without looking cartoon-y. The dress is hot (the red colour he picked is no accident) and the accessories compliment it perfectly. And that sharp geometric bob is perfection. Anna W asked for the hair stylist’s name.

Look At Her

Zuri Okoty™ Dressed Doll

Integrity Toys X Jason Kramer Designs

Edition Size: 900

Expected Ship Date: Late Fall 2024

MSRP: $185 + S & H

Special W Club RTB Winner Price: $175 + S & H

Sales method: This is being sold to W Club members via a W Club right-to-buy lottery offer. Should any product remain after fully placing the lottery, it would then be made available to the public and for purchasing extras at the MSRP.

The Story:

When Zuri Okoty heard that Taliyah Harper was about to release her debut album, she jumped at the chance to host the launch party at her nightclub, the Meteor. Convincing the right people to make it a high-profile event was a breeze for Zuri, who pulled some strings to bring in key players from the music industry. As Taliyah's world beats filled the room for the first time, it was clear that Zuri's instincts were spot on. The industry’s top executives were impressed and agreed that Taliyah's music deserved heavy rotation. This endorsement meant only one thing: Taliyah's career was on the brink of soaring to new heights. And Miss Okoty couldn't have been more thrilled!

Included:

• 12.5-inch articulated doll with rooted hair and hand applied eyelashes;

• Stunning custom-printed crop top with exaggerated puff sleeves and matching floor length mermaid skirt;

• Matching custom-printed head wrap;

• Adorable lip shaped purse with "gold" chain strap;

• Hot pink and teal strappy high-heeled shoes with back zipper detail;

• Golden "jeweled" chandelier earrings;

• Intricate statement collar necklace;

• Set of thin "gold" bangle bracelets;

• Set of thicker "gold" bangle bracelets;

• Set of "gold" and "emerald" bracelets;

• Studded "gold" bracelet with "emerald" bauble;

• "Gold" cuff bracelet;

• Pair of long-manicure hands;

• Alternate pair of hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Zuri is probably my favourite sculpt of the Meteor line and especially when they paint her with a gap tooth - which here she has again. Add to that the distinctly inspired by her African roots look and you get a winner. What a fantastic doll. The sheer amount of jewellery makes her a moving target! Can you not love the lip-shaped bag? Dali’s surrealist Mae West sofa and Lulu Guiness’ clutch came instantly to mind.

Isn’t this a fabulous pair? A star and her stylist.I’m not a big fan of salmon pink - too many bad 80s memories - but Jason has managed to make it work here, combined with her aquamarine accessories and jewellery. As for the doll, Taliya here reminds me a bit of the Italian diva Mina in her youth (check the Balenicaga-Mina collab coming up). Kieron is fierce - both the doll and the outfit are out of this world. Maybe I would have done his eyes a bit more smokey, to enhance his look. Absolute perfection.

Check out the video of the rotating dolls below. Did you manage to get any of the dolls?

Cold Carbon X Integrity Toys collaboration: the two final dolls are here!

The final two of four dolls in the Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration were revealed to club members on the 3rd of April. They are designed by Marina Zrnić, who has established her Cold Carbon OOAK doll brand and is very popular with collectors. She has a very distinct style, incorporating goth, steampunk and cyberpunk elements. Early this year we had the first two dolls in this collaboration revealed, and they are arriving just now to the lucky winners of that lottery. Just so you know, Marina announced that she will stop making dolls after this year, to focus on her other work. Both dolls are again lottery opportunities for W Club members for the right to buy. If there are any left, they will then be offered to the general public.

Blood Moon

Tenzin Dahkling™ Fashion Figure

Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon

Edition Size: 1200

Expected Ship Date: May 2024

W CLUB ONLY IT DIRECT RIGHT-TO-BUY LOTTERY

Head Sculpt: Tenzin

Body Type: Homme 1.5

Skin Tone: Hungarian

Hair Color: Silver

MSRP: $199 + S & H

Special W Club RTB Winner Price: $175 + S & H

Sales method: This is being sold to W Club members via a W Club right-to-buy lottery offer. Should any product remain after fully placing the lottery, it would then be made available to the public and for purchasing extras at the MSRP.

The Story:

In the third of four sensational dolls created for Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration, you are invited to be part of the story and enter the chilling, haunting world of vampire hunters!

In the dimly lit streets of the village, the dapper figure of Tenzin Dahkling glided with effortless grace, his cane tapping rhythmically against the cobblestones. With a debonair charm and keen intellect, he was not your typical vampire hunter. Clad in tailored suits and polished boots, Tenzin exuded an air of sophistication as he tracked down the creatures of the night. His cane, more than a mere accessory, was poised to strike at any undead foe. With each encounter, Tenzin Dahkling proved that style and substance were the perfect weapons against the darkness that lurked in the dimly lit shadows cast by the blood moon.

Included:

• 12.5-inch articulated fashion figure with rooted hair;

• Mystical look comprised of a white button-down collared shirt, black pants with a slightly cropped hem and dramatic black cape coat;

• Red satin necktie;

• Top hat;

• Oversized metal tipped black "crocodile skin" shoes;

• Custom-embellished walking stick;

• Vintage "leather" doctor's bag;

• Bull head pendant necklace;

• Steampunk style sunglasses;

• Detachable chain with cross charm;

• Ring;

• Socks;

• Pair of regular Homme hands;

• Alternate pair of gloved hands;

• Fashion figure stand;

• Story card;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Is it weird that the male doll is again the best of the two in this second Cold Carbon release? Or is it just me? I usually like the ladies more in Marina’s personal OOAK releases, but in this collaboration it has been the exact opposite. I love Tenzin, have two of his three iterations so far, so I’m entering the lottery for this guy and cross fingers. He’s exceptional. Hair, face, clothes, accessories, all combine into something really beautiful and well thought of. I just wish the hat’s crown was a bit wider to sit better on the head. I thought he was a vampire at first look, the whole style reminds me of Coppola’s Dracula gone West. Those glasses! I hope they stay properly on the face and not slide off. He should have had better socks though, they look like sport socks lol.

All That Vampire Drama

Kesenia Valentinova™ Dressed Doll

Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon

Head Sculpt: Kesenia

Body Type: FR 6.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Porcelain

Hair Color: Black

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

MSRP: $199 + S & H

Special W Club RTB Winner Price: $175 + S & H

The Story:

The hunt continues to rid the world of a dark plague that is creating fear in the hearts of all humanity! For the fourth and final sensational doll created for this Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration, the tables turn around and the chase will start yielding results... Vampires beware, the hunters are drawing near!

Kesenia Valentinova was more than just a fashionable socialite—she was a relentless hunter of the undead, reveling in the drama her chosen path brought her. With a vial of blood elegantly displayed around her neck, she lured vampires with the promise of their most coveted prize. Adorned in the finest fabrics, carrying an innocent looking umbrella that doubles as her weapon of preference, Kesenia danced around her fellow vampire hunters, her every move a carefully orchestrated hunt. For her, the thrill of the chase was as intoxicating as the finest champagne, and she embraced it with flair, proving that even amidst the glitz and glamour, the shadows held secrets waiting to be unveiled.

Included:

• 12.5-inch articulated doll with rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

• Feminine gothic look comprised of a black lace and satin bustier cami and black satin skinny cropped pants with pleat and front-slit detailing;

• Vintage-inspired velvet floral print robe coat with "fur" collar and pockets;

• Removable black belt;

• Metal tipped black high-heeled ankle boots;

• Functional black umbrella;

• Red headband;

• Three interchangeable chin piercings including a "silver" stud, a spider and drop piercing;

• Black sunglasses;

• Necklace with "blood-filled" pendant (for attracting vampires!);

• Hoop earrings with removable crosses;

• Pair of black and red manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of "grip" hands;

• Doll stand;

• Story card;

• Certificate of authenticity.

First thing that struck me upon seeing this one is the chin piercing. Apparently it is called labret. We have had dolls with piercings before but not on this spot. But the weird think is the size of the piercing jewellery, not the spot it is on. It looks like she has a goatee or something with that spider hanging there. Other than that, the doll is beautiful and reminds me a lot of a couple of the first Kesenias, Porcelain Beauty and Follow The Line. I generally do not like fringe on my dolls so I’d pass this anyway and I also have Porcelain Beauty, who looks a lot like her. I love her coat and accessories, and luckily I have a similar umbrella from the American Horror Story: Coven Fiona Goode doll. Remember that the Kesenia sculpt was the one used originally for the Ashton Drake Brides of Dracula dolls.

One final note: I keep seeing comments everywhere about how the IT X Cold Carbon dolls are watered down versions of Marina’s OOAK dolls. Well, you’d have to pay $990 to get that level of detail and customising, not $175. Below is a video showing the dolls rotating.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Prototypes shown, final product may vary. Background and props are not included. These collectibles are meant for adult collectors ages 15 and up only.

Dolly Days 2024 - Day One: Cold Carbon X Integrity Toys!

So Dolly Days are back again and the first day was a great surprise. It marked the debut of the first two of four dolls in the Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration, designed by the incredible Marina Zrnić, the extremely talented creator behind the Cold Carbon brand. If you are not following her instagram or are familar with her custom OOAK dolls, check her out now! it is great to see another creator collaborating with Integrity Toys and making their work available to a wider public. There will be four dolls in the collection, two of them presented now and available through lottery for W Club members. The other two will appear in 2024, as we heard in the live presentation on Monday. Let’s hear what Marina says about the collaboration:

"I knew I wanted something gothy. I knew I loved making vampires but IT already had Dracula and the Brides so I figured, you know what, I’m just gonna make vampire killers. They don’t get much love anyway and vampire killing surely isn’t an easy job. They needed to be represented. So, I wanted to make characters with their distinct style and histories. For Bellamy, I wanted some laid-back boho goth, as he is a pretty laid-back guy, led by a sense of what feels good. Jordan got a western/cowboy style goth that complements her more 'lone rider' character." -Marina Zrnić (Cold Carbon)

But who is Marina Zrnić and how did she end up making those amazing OOAK dolls?

"I was born in a small town in Croatia in 1988, and growing up in that specific environment was very challenging. I loved drawing and fashion design since very young age but my funny, and very honest worry was, what if I run out of inspiration and start creating from my head? I could see that a lot and that, combined with the awareness of my environment led me to forget about that dream. I studied American Literature and Indology, and was very interested in Environmental History and Bioethics but at the same time, I really suffered without a creative outlet I abandoned.

So, when I changed my diet, I found creativity in raw food chef position, but life decided to put me on the path where I will find the creativity that truly resonated with me. In a very, what some might see as, illogical way I 'found out' about doll collecting and Integrity Toys dolls and I knew I wanted to make dolls. Of course, I had no idea about the whole doll collecting world and possibilities, how to repaint, or reroot, what materials to use… zero… but it was a beam of clarity and healing I needed at that time, and I didn’t question how. I just knew I’m making dolls. One thing led to another and I realized people wanted my dolls, despite them being very niche.

And something like 5 years later, here I am. For me, making dolls is making characters. Getting to know parts of yourself you might not be aware of. In my characters, my 'crew', I could see the parts of me I didn’t want to see, I forgot about, I judged, I craved for and it led to some amazing integrations. I love putting dolls in stories and connecting with them through archetypes we all have in ourselves. It’s a way to find compassion for yourself and consequently for the whole of humanity. Through that (among some other things), I’m finding out who I am, and what it means to be authentic." -Marina Zrnić (Cold Carbon)

Bellamy Blue™ Fashion Figure

Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon

Edition Size: 1200

Expected Ship Date: Mid-To-Late March 2024

W CLUB ONLY IT DIRECT RIGHT-TO-BUY LOTTERY

Head Sculpt: Bellamy Blue

Body Type: Homme 1.5

Skin Tone: Japan

Hair Color: Auburn

MSRP: $199 + S & H

Special W Club RTB Winner Price: $175 + S & H

Sales method: This is being sold to W Club members via a W Club right-to-buy lottery offer. Should any product remain after fully placing the lottery, it would then be made available to the public and for purchasing extras at the MSRP.

The Story:

In this first of four sensational dolls created for Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration, you are invited to be part of the story and enter the chilling, haunting world of vampire hunters!

As the tale begins, meet Bellamy Blue, the star of our story, a romantic and ultra-stylish vampire hunter, pursuing his prey in a mysterious world where thanks to the efforts of courageous men like him and his friends, love, justice (and fashion) will always prevail over the forces of evil! Will he finally rid the world of this maleficent blood-sucking plague?

Included:

• 12.5-inch articulated fashion figure with rooted hair;

• Laid-back Boho-goth look comprised of distressed dark grey jeans and vintage-inspired flower print black shirt;

• Satin kimono;

• Western-style boots with strap and "silver" buckle;

• Western-style belt with detachable "gun" holster;

• Toy "gun" accessory;

• Two "silver" rings;

• Round "silver" sunglasses with red lenses;

• Hat with embellished band;

• "Silver" gothic cross necklace;

• Nose ring;

• "Cigarette" accessory;

• Pair of regular Homme hands;

• Alternate pair of hands with tattoos;

• Fashion figure stand;

• Story card;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Bellamy always turns out amazing - I have yet to see one bad looking version. Combine that with the creativity of Marina and you have a winner. Even with the restrictions that making a doll for mass production entails, she manages to give us a doll worthy of her OOAK work, alluring and mysterious, different and alternative from the usual IT fare. Making me like a long haired male doll is a feat on its own! I’m not that crazy about guns on dolls, I think that could have been avoided with different vampire hunter weapons (swords, knives, stakes etc.). Love his kimono style overcoat and the flowery shirt (that weirdly makes the character even more mysterious - a vampire hunter in florals?) and his boots are awesome. I love the hat, and it’s a first this style appears on an IT doll, as well as the awesome glasses! Bellamy’s jewellery are also great, as are his tattooed hands (with traditional Balkan motifs). Let’s hope I can win him in the lottery.

W CLUB ONLY IT DIRECT RIGHT-TO-BUY LOTTERY

Head Sculpt: Jordan Duval

Body Type: FR 6.0

Foot Sculpt: Articulated Ankle Flat Foot

Skin Tone: FR Black

Hair Color: Mahogany

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

MSRP: $220 + S & H

Special W Club RTB Winner Price: $199 + S & H

Sales method: This is being sold to W Club members via a W Club right-to-buy lottery offer. Should any product remain after fully placing the lottery, it would then be made available to the public and for purchasing extras at the MSRP.

The Story:

The hunt continues to rid the world of a dark plague that is creating fear in the hearts of all men! For the second of four sensational dolls created for Integrity Toys X Cold Carbon Collaboration, the tables turn around and the chase will start yielding results... Vampires beware, the hunters are drawing near!

Jordan Duval is the best collaborator an outlandish Vampire Hunter like Bellamy Blue could have. This strong, powerful lady comes fully equipped with all that she needs to complete the hunt and set the heart of the undead aflame (quite literally)! Her friends can rely on her, and Jordan always gets her sucker in the end!

Included:

• 12.5-inch articulated doll with rooted braided hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

• Western/cowboy style goth look comprised of Western-style black jeans with decorative stitching and a Western-style black shirt with studs and collar tips;

• Black cowboy duster;

• Western-style boots with "brass" studs, strap, and buckle;

• Brown "leather" belt with "brass" skull buckle and detachable gun holsters/leg harness;

• Two toy "gun" accessories;

• Western-style bolo tie;

• "Brass" sunglasses with red lenses;

• Hat with a "brass" skull decorated band;

• Two "brass" cross earrings, one with a chain connected upper ring;

• Vintage luggage;

• Pair of black-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of "grip" gloved hands;

• Doll stand;

• Story card;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Jordan is always a welcome appearance in IT reveals and she makes a gorgeous doll here. The hairstyle is something we have seen on Cold Carbon OOAK dolls (almost) and the hair colour fits her perfectly. She looks closer to a cowboy (or cowgirl) more than Bellamy does, what with the bolo tie, the cowboy boots and belt and the hat (which we have seen before on IT dolls, as well as the glasses). It is a bit weird that none of the photos show the chain double earring, although we did see it on the video presentation. She’s beautiful but not my cup of tea. If she was closer to the more edgy and extreme styles Cold Carbon usually does, I might have caved in, but not as she is now and for that price. Awesome trunk (with Cold Carbon written on it).

The final two Magia 2000 dolls for their collaboration with Integrity Toys are revealed!

I do not thing anyone was expecting that the remaining two dolls from the Magia 2000/ Integrity Toys collaboration would appear together, but here they are. W Club members received the corresponding email which revealed the two dolls, with characters from NU Face. The fact that the designers picked these particular sculpts sparked a flurry of comments and conversations in forums, groups and social media. One of the two specifically, Colette, drew a lot of ire, not only for being the 2.0 version (which had so far been used only in the first release of the new Colette sculpt), but also for its appearance. More on that later on. Here is what the designers, Gianni and Mario, said about the dolls:

For the final two dolls of our capsule collection, we wanted to continue with the concept of “day-to-night” fun!

We know how much IT collectors love to play with their dolls, undress them and switch accessories and clothing pieces, therefore, we opted to embrace this facet of collecting as much as possible. We were given the chance to design for two NU. Face characters and we couldn’t be more excited at the opportunity to challenge ourselves by creating extravagant looks for this highly prized, modern, and younger doll collection.

We also jumped at the chance to have Colette and Karolin appear in never-used-before skin tones/hair color combos and incorporate details inspired by the last two cities of the Italian tour, Milan and Rome!"

-Mario & Gianni, Magia 2000

Let’s check out both dolls, whose majority were available through a lottery for the W Club (which I am happy to say have been picked to buy in the lottery), and a small percentage of their edition will be available to the public when they arrive at the IT warehouse sometime in late spring/early summer of 2023.

I was not a fan of the original version of the Colette new sculpt when it came out during the Supermodel convention (check link in the introduction). The revamped 2.5 version is the best Colette sculpt and I have one. So this doll had me in a conundrum: I really wanted to have all the dolls from this collaboration in my collection, but not liking a sculpt poses a serious problem. The golden make up tones she is sporting did not help the situation either. The make up also drew a lot of hate from people online, many being people of colour protesting that it is always the dark skinned dolls that get the garish, bold or metallic make up, while the lighter skinned ones get the softer tones to look more natural and lovely. Exhibit A is of course Dominique from the 2021 convention (which is a doll I love, in major part because of her make up). My humble opinion is that the truth is somewhere in the middle: yes, it is not fair that darker skinned dolls get this treatment, but on the other hand, bold and metallic colours do look better on them (and pigments have to be stronger to show properly on darker skin). A counter argument of course could be that her golden make up could have been applied more delicately, like the one on 24K Erin Salston from the Fairytale convention. It would have probably looked more appealing - at least to my eyes. The way it is designed in the prototype reminds me of the ancient Egyptian funerary masks found on mummies, which you could either say could be an inspiration or a bad look. Further more, combined with platinum white hair, instead of say a black afro or a more natural hair look, compounds the problem. I love the outfits (two!) she comes in, and the many possibilities in combining the various bits and pieces (despite the clash of gold and silver/white of some of them), but the doll is somewhat problematic - even more so considering it was designed by white cis gay male people. The doll was shown in an accompanying video with the designers being interviewed by Carol Roth and looked quite better in real life. Which of course does not negate the inherent problem it seemingly has.

The Story:

Fourth and final in a series of dolls created especially for Integrity Toys, each figure and doll in this series will take fans on an ultra-creative tour of some of Italy's most iconic venues and festivals, as seen through the eyes of fabulous design duo Magia 2000!

With a long history that spans more than 28 centuries, Magia 2000's tour of Italy concludes with a thrilling final stop at the center of it all, the "Eternal City"; Rome! Also called "Caput Mundi" (Capital of the World), Rome is generally considered to be the cradle of Western civilization. Famous artists, painters, sculptors, and architects made Rome the center of their activity, creating masterpieces throughout the city. In 2019, Rome was the 14th most visited city in the world, with 8.6 million tourists, the third most visited in the European Union, and the most popular tourist destination in Italy.

For this final stop, NU. Face top model Karolin Stone makes a most memorable appearance in Rome just in time for the Rome Film Festival, a yearly affair that is attended by hottest actors and directors in the film industry! Wearing a look inspired by some of the architectural details of one of the city's most famous landmarks, the Trevi fountain, Karolin's look can transform from an extravagant cocktail look to a show stopping Grand Gala "entrance" moment! With such over-the-top, glamorous looks at her command, Karolin is sure to leave an undeniable mark in the history of Italian fashion!

Included:

• 12.5-inch articulated doll with intricately styled, rooted hair*;

• Pink, long sleeved off-shoulder "bonbon" mini-dress with embroidered and beaded embellishments on the skirt;

• Seafoam green tulle petticoat/underskirt (not shown);

• Floor length, show-stopping overskirt finished with ruffled details;

• Floor length, seafoam green lace veil with ruffle accents;

• Matching clutch purse with rhinestone accents;

• Pink stockings;

• Pair of thigh-high pink boots;

• Pair of pink chunky platform heels;

• Intricate choker necklace with three rows of "pearl" and rhinestone accents;

• Over-the-top, ultra-intricate chandelier earrings with rhinestone accents;

• Alternate, delicate earrings with "pearl" drop;

• Tiara/comb accessory with rhinestone accents;

• Chrome "silver" powder compact accessory;

• Matching chunky signet ring with rhinestone accents;

• Pair of manicured hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

*NOTE ABOUT KAROLIN'S HAIRSTYLE: Please note that Karolin's hair has been rooted to specifically create her elaborate hairstyle. If you opt to undo this hairstyle and take it down, we cannot guarantee that the full head will be rooted and some bald spots may be present. Undoing this hair style will void the warranty.

If it wasn’t for her grand baroque madonna style, with a bit of Moschino by Jeremy Scott Fall 2020 RTW inspiration, Karolin would have been left in the shadow of Colette. I love what the guys did with her, managing to make me actually want to by a Karolin doll (I really do not like her sculpt). Maybe Mario and Gianni should have made Karolin a dark skinned lady in her crinoline gown (Bridgerton anyone?) instead, she would have looked awesome with the pinks. She is a direct connection to their usual work, with all the pomp and decoration she has (including the madonna veil), while still remaining a production doll instead of an OOAK offering. I love both versions of the outfit (long and short) and the accessories are gorgeous - the Valentino boots and pumps alone are amazing (but would have been perfect if she had something more impressive on her head, like the ship True Royalty Vanessa had). Pure winner.

The second Integrity Toys / Magia 2000 collaboration doll is Summer in Taormina Vanessa !

As we wait impatiently for the first doll resulting from the collaboration of Integrity Toys and the incredibly talented duo of Magia 2000. Mario and Gianni, here is the second one: Summer in Taormina Vanessa Perrin. As before, this will be mostly for the club, who got dibs through a lottery for most of the edition, while a very small portion will be available for the general public. Read on for more details.

Gianni and Mario, who are the people behind Magia 2000, said this about their inspiration:

“As we love to play, this time around we designed an exciting “day-to-night” look for Vanessa, which brings many display possibilities for collectors to enjoy! The imagery on her dress has been artfully crafted to pay homage to some of the most iconic elements of Sicily, such as the delicious lemons growing on the island, or the strong devotion to the “sacred heart” that the residents all share. We want Vanessa to enjoy a wonderful day through the little streets of Taormina, looking fantastic in the “daytime” version of the dress, and then with a few transformations, look like a vision of perfection, ready for a triumphant appearance at the ancient Greek-Roman theatre later that evening!” - Magia 2000

The Story:

Second in a series of dolls created especially for Integrity Toys, each figure and doll in this series will take fans on an ultra-creative tour of some of Italy's most iconic venues and festivals, as seen through the eyes of fabulous design duo Magia 2000!

Perched on a cliff overlooking the Ionian Sea on the East Coast of Sicily, with a rich history that pre-dates the arrival of the ancient Greeks, Taormina is well known as a welcoming haven for artists and is one of the top tourist destinations of Italy, attracting visitors from all over the world! Magia 2000’s exciting, fashionable journey through Italy continues as famed Fashion Royalty® top model Vanessa Perrin® visits the gorgeous seaside town, dressed in a glamorous ultra-detailed gown that is filled with symbolism, ready to make a most anticipated appearance at one of the many festivals that happen in town throughout the summer. 

Included:

• 12.5-inch articulated doll with intricately styled, fully rooted hair;

• Custom printed cocktail gown with extravagant detachable train and ruffle detail at the shoulders;

• Black velvet bow belt with jeweled heart charm;

• Black satin bra and panties with lace trim details;

• Fitted, sheer black petticoat with ruffle detail at the hem;

• Elaborate "sacred heart" tiara with black lace ruffle accent;

• Matching "sacred heart" earrings;

• Red "ruby" ring;

• "Gold" chain bracelet with tiny lemon charms;

• Elaborate oversized sunglasses with sculpted heart and flower accents;

• Pair of black pleather strappy high-heels;

• Pair of custom printed platform sandals;

• Custom embroidered purse;

• Pair of manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of "grip" hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

After Venice in the north, we travel, with the help of Magia 2000. to the south of Italy: Sicily. The doll is gorgeous and I was really sorry to not being selected through the lottery. Hopefully a take over could emerge - fingers crossed. The inspiration is of course very close to what Dolce and Gabbana are doing in their collections, which mars the beauty of the doll a bit. But they surely do not have an exclusive on being inspired by Sicily.

The doll really succeeds in capturing the ideal beauty image of the island, with her sunny colours, her dark hair and tanned skin, her sultry make up and sexy silhouette, the baroque embellishments and accessories. The idea of making the outfit so versatile is another testament to the genius of Mario and Gianni. You get so many variations with all these pieces, it is perfection. The accessories are of course really glamorous and baroque, channelling the ornamentation and decoration of the Sicilian churches and palaces, and the Sacred Heart head ornament is the cherry on top. The only accessory that looks a bit poor compared to the rest is the pair of black close toed shoes, they look like they could use a bow or two.

A last observation: the doll reminds me a bit if that infamous upgrade Take Me On Vanessa(becaise of the sticker eyes debacle), with her severe hairstyle. She is of course darker skinned and has green instead of blue eyes.
