It has been two years since the announcement about Integrity Toys producing American Horror Story: Coven dolls came, making collectors and fans of the series giddy with excitement. Since that day, three more seasons of the series have been aired and time seemed to pass too slowly on the way to the final product. Collectors were getting annoyed, bored, even becoming indifferent to any news - admittedly very few - on the progress of the project. It seems that the main issue was the final approval of the dolls' sculpts from the actors being portrayed. With so many divas involved, it would not surprise me at all. Finally the dolls are revealed, available to preorder at all Integrity Toys dealers, with Angela Basset's Marie Laveau being the first doll to arrive at the end of the month.

I love this one! They did a great likeness of the artist and the outfit is fierce. Overall one of the best in the collection - if not the very best! I would have preferred another outfit, more "witchy" like the one below, but I'm really satisfied.

She comes dressed in one of her signature looks and includes two pairs of interchangeable hands (non-gloved and gloved), earrings, sunglasses, shoes, a fully functional umbrella and a doll stand. Recommended for adult collectors ages 15 and up.
Now this one looks a bit off, as far as the likeness is concerned, but if Jessica Lange is OK with it, I'm more than fine. The loos is impeccable and the cherry on top is the functioning umbrella! Love her! Below is a still from the series with Lange in her iconic look, leading the coven.

They totally nailed Myrtle, even though she is not wearing the red "Balenciaaaaga!" final outfit. Amazing, amazing, amazing. Below is the actress from the series.

Zoe Benson Dressed Doll
American Horror Story Coven™

Zoe Benson is a 12.5-inch fully articulated fashion doll with fully rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes.

She completes her look with a large brimmed black hat, an oversized finger ring, short black socks, short faux-leather boots and a doll stand. Recommended for adult collectors ages 15 and up.
She looks close enough to the real thing. Cute face, lovely outfit. I think the three older characters are better than the three younger ones though. I would have preferred another outfit for this character, like the black one below:
They probably tried to avoid too much total black outfits, even though this is a line that would totally justify it. Below is a still from the series with Farmiga in the outfit worn by the doll.
Item # 14088
Kyle Spencer Dressed Fashion Figure
American Horror Story Coven™
The Official Collectible Doll Series
Limited Edition of 700 Figures Worldwide
Suggested Retail Price: $130.00 US
Available Approximately Mid-November 2016
Doll Specs:
Head Sculpt: Kyle Spencer (New Sculpt!)
Body Type: Homme
Skin Tone: Japan
Hair Color: Blond
Eyelashes: No
Quickswitch: No
Portrayed by actor Evan Peters, Kyle Spencer is a native of New Orleans' Ninth Ward and has spent the years since Katrina supporting his single mother. Resurrected after a violent death, Kyle serves Miss Robichaux's Academy on American Horror Story: Coven™. Kyle Spencer is a 12.5-inch fully articulated fashion figure with fully rooted hair. Kyle is dressed in the outfit the girls dressed him in after his awkward resurrection from the dead, which features a plaid shirt, khakis, black shoes and a figure stand. Recommended for adult collectors ages 15 and up.
Great likeness of the actor, but the head looks a bit larger than it should have - it might be the hair that makes it look like that. Men in AHS: Coven did not have any particularly striking outfits, so I am guessing the inclusion of the character had more to do with the popular actor and less with any fashion inspiration. They should have included a jacket with it. Below is the actor from the series with Lily Rabe as Misty, who unfortunately is not included in this line up of dolls.
Item # 14089
Madison Montgomery Dressed Doll
American Horror Story Coven™
The Official Collectible Doll Series
Limited Edition of 800 Dolls Worldwide
Suggested Retail Price: $130.00 US
Available Approximately Mid-December 2016
Doll Specs:
Head Sculpt: Madison Montgomery (New Sculpt!)
Body Type: NU. Face 2.0

Portrayed on-screen by actress Emma Roberts, out-of-control Hollywood starlet Madison Montgomery is used to things going her way. After becoming stranded at Miss Robichaux's Academy, she may learn that she needs more than star power to shine. Madison Montgomery is a 12.5-inch fully articulated fashion doll with fully rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes. Madison comes dressed in a look composed of a black bustier, silver jacquard cigarette pants, and a black fur coat, accessorised by a thick silver finger ring, crystal beaded earrings and short faux-leather high-heeled boots and a doll stand. Recommended for adult collectors ages 15 and up.
I think this likeness is off. This does not look like Emma Roberts at all. She's gorgeously dressed but that's it. Pity as she would have been striking. Below is the actress in the series.

OMG I loved Coven, I think it was the best one ever ...why didnt they make a Gabourey Sidibe doll?
ReplyDeleteGreat attention to detail. Loving the Myrtle Snow doll and outfit! One doll I would have liked to have seen made of this series would have been Lily Rabe's character Misty Day. She wore some amazing outfits on that show. There is already an Integrity doll that I think looks a lot like this character, Erin Lady in Red.
