After a Friday night without an official event (only the Bazaar was on), Saturday morning arrived and the last convention day. This means, first of all, the W Club Members-Only Luncheon. This year it featured Nu Face and the centerpiece was Erin sitting on a miniature motorcycle (which you can find on ebay for more or less the same price one could get it in the convention, it's a Honda Valkyrie model miniature). During the event, W Club owner and stage-host Carol Roth hosted a Q & A panel featuring the IT design team. The designers answered questions that club members sent in online last week. The gift doll was a new-sculpt Colette doll. Jesse Ayala is taking over the Nu Face line design.
In other news, the AHS: Coven first doll is appearing near the end of the month and the first doll will be Angela Basset's Marie Laveau. They confirmed what many suspected, the demise of the Dynamite Girls line. The Industry line is its replacement, will use some of those sculpts but at almost double the price. Makes financial sense, no?Item # 82079

Erin looks great and her outfit as well, apart from the oversize cap.
So is she Helena or Cindy? Maybe Stephanie? Or Karen?
The bike she was shown on is below. 50 of the attendees were raffled to buy these. You can find it on ebay.
She had nice accessories too

So this is the new sculpt for Colette. This has been a long time coming. Last appearance of the old one as Colette was back in the Rock Wedding Trio if I remember correctly.
The outfit is from Azedinne Alaia's Tati collection from 1991 as seen below on Christy:
She has a ring too and the mules look just like Christy's above left. Pity she does not have a bag.
