it's snowing again...

welcome home, Bella

I knew the face, though I'd never seen it myself before this moment. It had been foremost in every human head today. The new student, Isabella Swann. Daughter of the town's chief of police, brought to live here by some new custody situation. Bella. She'd corrected everyone who'd used her full name. (Midnight Sun by Stephenie Meyer)



So she is finally here :-) start of my Tonner/Twilight collection :-)

Another Bella OOAK on eBay

I saw this photo (part of Raven Dollz' eBay auction) and fell in love :-)
I don't hink I have seen more Kirsten Stewart-like repaint recently. It resembles New Moon Bella to me.

Bella & Edward by Mattel

Tonner Doll is not the only one, who made cute Twilight dolls last year. Mattel Inc. released two characters so far - Edward (with new, athletic body) and Bella (or rather "Barbie as Bella", it's pity there is no special facemold for this doll).

Below - Mattel's promos.




Another doll - Jacob - is going to be released in February. I think I'll buy all three :-)

Tonner Twilight dolls - Edward

There are three versions of Edward produced by Tonner Doll so far. First - the 'basic' Edward (LE3000), as portrayed by Robert Pattinson. He is wearing navy blue t-shirt, jeans, shoes with working laces, and grey tailored coat. Catalogue price was 139,9 $, now can be bought from TonnerDirect for 125,99$.



San Diego Comic-Con 2009 Exclusive Edward Cullen was the "hungry", dark - eyed version, limited to 200 pieces, now sold out at Tonner's, sometimes available on ebay.



The newest edition, Amazon Exclusive, is Edward wearing his prom costume - suit (with working buttons and buttonholes), and crisp Oxford shirt, sleek tie, socks, and molded dress shoes. I don't like the hairdo in this version, it's not much like Edward's...
Anyway, this doll can be bought from TonnerDirect for a discount price 89,99$ and just now - from amazon.com for 39,99$.
The original price was 139,99$.

Tonner Twilight dolls - Bella

The Tonner Doll Company produced two versions of Bella, both 15'' tall, with fifteen points of articulation (neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, bust line, waist, hips, knees, and ankles), dressed straight from the movie. First (LE 3000) - in embroided peasant top, trousers and jacket, the other (Tonnerdirect and Amazon exclusive) - in the prom dress and black leg cast on the right leg.

The first one is on her way to me right now - can't wait :-)

start

OK, I admit. I became sort of addicted. To the book, but also - suprisingly - to the Twilight movies.

I promise, I am not going to chase the news on the Twilight movie stars here ;-) As I am a doll collector - I'd rather share the issues connected with Twilight's impact on the dolly world, Twilight artwork and other stuff, I might find interesting.

Hope you'll find it inspiring :-)
