New East 59th Basic dolls are announced!

Integrity Toys had announced that they would gradually change the basic dolls in all lines earlier this year. The first new one have been unveiled and they are from the East 59th line, designed by Chris Stoeckel. A new Victoire Roux and the first basic guy, Augustus "Gus" Blake, are the new additions to the basic doll releases. Integrity Toys is tweaking the process slightly. For W Club members, they are taking a pre-order for the new entries in the East 59th collection and members may order 1 per membership at special W Club pricing. That means at least one guaranteed doll per member, which is great! No more hassle and anxiety. It makes more sense for me to have members pre-order and have dolls made to order, just like with regular club dolls. Easier for the company and the buyers! The company also mentioned that “While the initial idea behind these dolls is to manufacture them "Open Edition" style (which means that more will be produced once they sell out), Integrity Toys reserves the right to "retire" these designs based on their overall popularity level at any point. Once that happens, it means that they won't be produced again.” 

Non members will be able to order the dolls once they come in stock. Depending on the edition size of the initial pre-order, it is possible that orders may have to be shipped in waves (meaning, that even though you pre-order now, you may not be in the first batch of dolls that arrive and may have to wait for a second or third batch to be produced). We will know after May 20th if multiple shipping waves are necessary.

I was not expecting another Victoire as a basic doll for East 59th but here she is, in all her blonde bombshell glory. I suppose they wanted to add a blonde one, after the redhead and raven versions. This one has a better swimsuit, two piece instead of a single one, and it is in a lovely polka dot fabric. Typical accessories, lovely face. The club discount price is the basics price of last year, the public will be getting them $10.00 more.

I love that we are getting a Darius/Gus as a basic doll, he’s one of my favourite guys and cannot have enough of him. Nubian skin tone too! I love his swimming trunks (can we have a real life pair like this to buy too?) and he’ll look gorgeous next to Laird in his striped shirt. I’m definitely getting this one! I’m not so sure about the pleather espadrilles though.

Under the Malibu Sky: the open edition Agnes Von Weiss is revealed!

Fashion Royalty collectors were wondering which of the characters from the line would be the first to get an open edition basic doll version. Veronique, Adele and Vanessa were the names dropped more often but it is Agnes that gets the treatment first. Surprisingly so, as she is supposedly an club/event only doll - i.e. she is offered either as a club doll or during online presentations or conventions. The difference to previous open edition dolls is that Agnes will be first available to W Club members, and once the process of ordering has finished for them, the doll will be available to the public. The information is that one 2000 doll batch will be available late June (and not immediately as with previous open editions), the next will be approximately late November, a third batch for late winter 2021-2022 and, if a fourth one is needed, it will be later in 2022. So I am guessing the other open edition dolls will follow a similar pattern.

What a beautiful Agnes! Anything but basic! I bet this will be the most popular open edition of all so far - the combination of the character and the perfect execution will be a smash. I’m curious to see the Malibu Agnes photographed with the Miami one. She reminds me of Fresh Perspective Agnes - same youthful energy, but better colouring. Let’s hope the process of ordering her will be problem-free.

Lilith Blair is on a Natural High!

After the previous open edition basic doll release from Integrity Toys less than a month ago, we have a new one: One of the infamous NU Face twins, Lilith Blair, is appearing as Natural High, available on Thursday 8th of April for order, with the same procedure that was followed for the Poppy Parker basic edition. I am certain that she will be as popular as Poppy was. In other news, Integrity Toys is looking for a professional photographer to work with them, so send in those emails. Wicked Narcissism Eugenia is arriving at the end of April or early May, Pretty Reckless Rayna will arrive to dealers this coming week, while Alexandra will be arriving alongside Eugenia. The company has updated their warranty terms, which are available here, and I think this is the first time I am seeing specific time limits for the different parts that constitute a doll. The lowest time limit for a warranty is four months, and with the mail delays currently afflicting the entire world (no matter which mail carrier one picks), it is not good. Integrity should give this at least six months, as it regards crucial doll parts that are usually problematic as the doll screening and hair rooting, the outfit and the accessories (the body is still under the one year period). With problematic dolls, especially in larger editions, becoming more often lately, this sucks big time.

The Blair twins might be very popular with Integrity Toys doll collectors but with me they are mostly miss and rarely a hit. I have a few in my collection but I find their sculpt too generic and without character. This one is a sister to the 2017 Fairytale convention Changing Winds Eden (Jessy said so in his Instagram post about this one) and I definitely prefer Lilith. I might try to get her now, but then again, I was saying the same for Poppy and I did not even bother. She’s in the darker natural colours that I like so that is definitely a plus.

First Basic Poppy Parker doll arriving soon!

W Club members were notified by mail about the next doll in the open Basic Edition series, Poppy Parker. People were wondering, from the very first time basic open edition dolls were premiered, whether Poppy would be offered in such a way, and finally here she is. Like the previous dolls in this series, this new basic edition doll is made in open edition size, whereas when she "sells-out", more will be produced and then made available for sale in the IT shopping cart. While these will ship in waves, once the initial shipment that is currently in the IT warehouse sells out, the next run should ship later this year. Here’s the chance to get a Poppy Parker doll in a low price. Due to the popularity of the character though, Integrity will be selling this one a bit differently. For the first 24h, W Club members will be getting a special online form to fill in, that will go live Monday, March 22nd, 2021 at Noon Eastern Time. IT will then start to notify individuals in batches during that day until all doll requests are accounted for. Like the previous open Basic Edition dolls in the series, these dolls will be available to everyone on release day, members and non-members alike. People allocated a doll from IT will have until NOON ET on March 23rd, to complete their purchase for the number of dolls allocated. If they don’t complete the purchase, the doll goes again up for sale.. At around 12:30 ET on March 23rd, if any dolls remain, they will be made available for anyone to grab directly in the IT shopping cart and those who signed up early will lose the priority purchase window if their purchase isn’t complete. Remember that this doll will be available for purchase later this year, once a new shipment arrives..

Weird that they are only offering one version of the most popular IT character as a basic open edition - but that could be because of the new system they are trying out to ease the strain on their servers. I loved the doll upon first sight, and was even thinking about getting her, but then realized that she looks so much like other Poppy dolls I already have. So I will not get her - at least for now. Her outfit reminds me a lot of Calendar Shot Gene Marshall.

That was quick - Integrity Toys new basic dolls available Monday, February 8th

After last week’s reveal of the basic Victoire dolls and the plan of Integrity Toys to offer basic edition dolls in open edition sizes (when they "sell-out", more will be produced and then made available for sale again in the IT shopping cart), we now get two more dolls! From the Meteor line, designed by Vaughn Sawyers, we get two variations of Keeki. It looks like IT will be releasing one character from each line as a basic doll in two colour variations, and probably add more characters later on, depending on the project’s success. Looks good to me.

Purchase Instructions

1. Starting Monday, February 8th, 2021 at approximately Noon Eastern Time, these dolls will appear in the IT Direct Exclusive Category in the Integrity Toys shopping cart at https://www.integritytoys.com/shop.

2. There will be no purchase limit on these dolls and they will be available to the public at the same time.

A blonde version of the same basic Keeki doll - the hair looks a bit disheveled here, compared to the first one. She’s lovely still. Are you getting any of these? Let me know in the comments.

Remember, once the first run "sells out", more will be manufactured. Once Integrity Toys runs out of the first batch, more will be added to the shopping cart at a later date. So, if you miss out on this first shipment, no worries, you will be able to place an order in the future, as more stock of the same dolls will be replenished whenever they will become available.
