She looks a bit like... a cat???











This is the original design that Jason Kramer won
The verdict:
I LOVE the fashion! Jason did a fabulous job but the doll is another issue. While I'm so GLAD Integrity Toys and Jason picked Rayna as a doll for this design BUT her face is kinda scare me. That's not Rayna! Or at least this is Rayna with different face? BUT on the other hands, kinda like that this doll look so WEIRD and different from normally pretty faces of Fashion Royalty or their NU.Face line.

What do you guys think of this doll? Yay or Nay? BTW below are what Rayna used to look like.

Rare Jewel Rayna. Have her too hehe

A Delicate Bloom - 2016 Fashion Royalty Collection

After waiting since like FOREVER, finally Integrity Toys revealed this year's main Fashion Royalty collection and they are pure feminine, soft and perfection!

It was hinted by IT with the first upgrade doll, which is, Take Me On Vanessa Perrin, on which theme they will use for this year's collection. The hint was, the collection most likely be about flowers, feminine silhouette and of course more colors. Which makes most FR fans happy because they keep giving us black! Black is chic, but we need more colors please ad boy did they delivered!

What's not to like about this Natalia? She's blonde, a perfect cocktail dress and killer accessories. She's SOLD OUT within minutes and fans LOVE her. How I wish I can get her too, but budget is a little bit tight. T_T

It's 2nd doll from FR collection and IT is KILLING IT! Kyori in brown hair? Fresh face? Embroidery faux leather mini dress??? Fabulous accessories?? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

It's Dasha and while I AM Dasha's fan and she is one of my favorite, SADLY I also had to pass on her. At least for now. LOVE the face and her hair and her make up and shoes. NOT so much on her suits. The suit has delicate lace detail and that skirt somehow...a meh..for me? Which is weird cause I always favor suit than couture. Plus, I already have one perfect Dasha this year and she will be release on September. There's no way I could afford her in time being. Once again, my eyes are tearing up! That demn evil IT!

Been waiting to have her for few years and finally she came and she's a perfection. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her! She's a redhead, which is a rare hair color in IT dolls, she's in cream skintone which is my all time FAVORITE tone, fabulous accessories which the best is her shoes and that vintage inspired couture! PERFECTION! LOVE her couture which feature corset like bodice and delicate gray flower print with mermaid silhouette. And this is coming from someone who HATE mermaid dress. Pre order her ASAP and I get her!

Oh, miss Elyse Jolie. LOVE the fashion but not so much on the face. While am a sucker for blonde and pale skintone, Elyse's face somehow look too ghostly to me. Almost like she's lifeless. Pass on her, but am crazy for her pink lingerie!

SERIOUSLY, I can't ask for other doll than miss Agnes to be event exclusive doll and this one is pure perfection! And totally unpredictable! Because I just had two dolls set featuring Agnes and Giselle as 2nd WClub exclusives and didn't think miss Agnes could be another exclusive so soon and not that am complaining because one can have too many Agnes doll. And if it's up to me, I would make all exclusives to be Agnes doll. I LOVE Agnes and maybe way too much. Her face is fierce yet so soft. Her hair is high fashion and relaxed. Her couture is amazingly feminine with beading detail. Her shoes are fabulous. That bow purse? Perfection! Her accessories gives her some hard edge to all soft styling. And BEST of all, she's in CREAM skintone. YEAY!!! Once again my parent woke up from their holiday sleep after I screamed so loud. And thanks GOD she is WClub exclusive doll and make it easier for me to get her without all that fuss waiting for confirmation from the dealers. 

So to recap, this year's Fashion Royalty has everything a fan like me could ask for. More colors, feminine, mixture of ready to wear ad couture, fabulous and fresh faces, the return of Luchia Z and Agnes as member's exclusive doll.

BUT... Where's Adele??? She's the ONLY black core character and she's NOT in this line? WTH? IT better have some explaining to do! I HOPE she will appear as exclusive WClub doll, NOT just for convention doll! And where's Kesenia and Korrine? Maybe next year please?

And here are my three pick from this year's delicate bloom collection:

L2R : Luchia Z, Veronique and Agnes
What are you guys think about this year's collection? Yay or Nay?

AiS Toys Museum

Welcome to AiS Toys Museum and enjoy the tour of my humble collection


Pop Culture

My husband and I LOVE Pop Culture, especially when it comes to music, television and movies. It's one of two things we have in common (the other is cats of course, we have 10 furkids). And how frustrated to fine a good and reasonable priced doll or toy version of our favorite musicians, celebrities, characters etc etc. BUT this adorable Funko Pop are the answer to this problem. They are cute, not too big, colorful and best of all, they aren't that pricey! (compare to other collectible based on pop culture) 

Here are some of my wishlist for funko pop:





And speaking on pop culture related doll or toy, I am EXCITED that next week Integrity Toys will reveal a brand new dolls line from their new license which fans think it will either My Little Pony (yay) or  American Horror Story : Coven (MAJOR YAY). About time! Give me Misty Day and Myrtle Snow dolls already!

What are you favorite pop culture inspired doll or toys???

Blondes Have More Fun

Anyone who knows me, knew that I LOVE blonde dolls. Especially platinum blonde, silver blonde or pale blonde. Or all kind of blondes like strawberry blonde, ash blonde, dessert due blonde or what ever blondes types out there. Added the red lips and pale skins, make me want the dolls more. That's why almost 80 % (or maybe more??) of my dolls collections are blondes. Cause maybe I think blondes have more fun? Or maybe because my first crush was Emma Bunton from Spice Girls and how much I obsessed with Britney Spears :)

And here are some of my blonde dolls collection, from Fashion Royalty line.


And speaking of blonde, Integrity Toys gave us a hint about this one doll who happens to another blonde from upcoming webinar which will feature Fashion Royalty and two other doll lines. Do you think this blondie will be this year's online event exclusive doll and who she will be? My money is on Dasha, and how much I HOPE this blondie is her and will be online exclusive. So I can secure her, without fighting with other collector to buy her.

Anyone can guess who is she???

Sister Moguls Giftset

It's been few months since Integrity Toys announced the first ever WClub doll exclusive which was a Ooh La La Poppy Parker giftset, and fans had been waiting for ages for the second WClub exclusives and wow, did we in for a special treat?

It's ANOTHER giftset which include TWO FREAKING DOLLS!!! And with their motto "More IS MORE" they offered us lucky members a change to pre orders two of most beloved fan favorite characters which are Agnes Von Weiss™ and Giselle Diefendorf™ and this giftset include two dolls, killer accessories and fabulous gothic inspired fashion maybe? 



The Verdict:

Being a sucker for blonde, with red lips and cream or japan skintones, AND miss Agnes as one of of top 6 favorites and Giselle (soon to be one of my top fave doll and am going to drop Eugenia from the list), this set, without a doubt, one of the best thing Integrity Toys ever produced. While I know the hair stylist is overdone (TOO many blondes with ponytails, even my husband mistaken I already had this kinda of dolls), I STILL WANT MORE of this same hair style and color. 

As for fashion, YET again another blacks and I don't mind at all! LOVE the lace couture for Baroness BUT I do think Giselle should rock another style maybe? She's a NU.Face. Need my girl to look young and edgy. She's suppose to be a fashion designer here.

Overall, I LOVE this set and it makes me happy after being in IT dolls drought for months! I DO HOPE the next 3 WClub exclusives will also be gift sets. Better yet, all of them come in a fabulous cases. LOVE that old but updated classic suitcases for dolls. I NEED MORE! Without further ado, here they are... The Sister Moguls Giftset!
