Integrity Toys convention 2015: Cinematic Part VIII: The Poppy Parker luncheon

Friday was all about workshops and shopping. Attendees though were eagerly anticipating the day's highlight: the Poppy Parker luncheon with designer David Buttry. Carol Roth, conducted an interview with David on stage at the luncheon to talk about what's in Poppy's future for 2016. Carol and David also unveiled the final gift set that will conclude the 2015 Model Scene Collection, which will be available to W Club members later in November (more details when available - a photo I saw from an attendee of the slide shown during the presentation showed a lovely doll). The lucky attendees who got picked got the chance to purchase the luncheon centerpiece doll. Then, as the event closed, everyone in attendance received another Poppy Parker doll for free as a thank you gift for attending the luncheon. 

Item # PP091
Love and Let Love
Poppy Parker™ Dressed Doll (Centerpiece)
Cinematic: The 2015 Integrity Toys Convention Collection
Limited Edition of 450 Dolls


Her hair look like the Camera Loves Her Poppy. Very 60s fashion model, although I can't think of a film featuring this style. I don't like the multicoloured eye shadow.



Item # PP090
Paper Doll
Poppy Parker™ Dressed Doll (Giveaway Souvenir)
Cinematic: The 2015 Integrity Toys Convention Collection
Limited Edition of 600 Dolls


This one would look amazing with different colouring. Again too candy coloured for my taste. Love the hairdo.

Fashion Teen Poppy Parker goes to Paris for the collections

In a (slightly) surprising e-mail, W Club members were notified by Integrity Toys about four new released dolls in the Fashion Teen Poppy Parker line - the 16" version of the popular doll. Many had already seen the dolls photographed by the extremely talented Saron Wright in this month's DOLLS magazine. David Buttry, the line's designer (interviewed in the magazine), said they wanted to continue the Paris theme from this year's Tulabelle line but of course adjusted to the early 60s period. The dolls are available now at IT dealers and will be shipping in two weeks.

Cute but nothing to phone home about. Second bathing suit this year from IT (remember Victoire?). Kind of a basic doll (reflected in the price) with a little extra in the towel and accessories.


Item # 84006 
Fashionably Suited
Fashion Teen Poppy Parker™ Dressed Doll 
Suggested Retail Price: $140.00 US
Limited Edition Size: 300

Head Sculpt: Poppy Parker (16-Inch) 
Quick Switch Feature: No

Sharply Suited Poppy wears a pink double breasted tweed suit, paired with a navy blue satin blouse and scarf that can be tied in a bow around her neck.

Fashion Teen Poppy Parker is a 16-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


This is by far the best of the collection, If I could, this is the one I would get. The suit reminds me of 60s Chanel (and the chains help a lot in that direction). The blouse and extra bow add class along with the hat. I hope the gloves are tight and easy to put on otherwise they will look like oven mittens.


Item # 84007

A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


This one is the weird one out - there's something off about her that I can't put my finger on. Love the shoes. No accessories photo with this one, if one is made available I will update the post.

This one looks like a wedding cake. Too Barbie for my taste, but I am sure there will be people who will love her. I think last year's release was much better designed and executed.

The Premiere: Integrity Toys 2013 Convention Collection

Each annual Integrity Toys convention has a collection designed especially for it. Attendees can either pre-order the entire collection months before (sight unseen) but also have the option to wait until the actual event to make their purchases and pick the dolls they like. On Thursday, the new FR collection designed by Jason Wu and Vaughn Sawyers, along with a great Poppy Parker doll created by David Buttry, was presented to attendees. The Integrity Toys Souvenir Shop was all dressed up in white just for the occasion. Let's see the dolls:

Item # 91323
October Issue
Agnes Von Weiss™
Dressed Doll
2013 Convention Collection Exclusive





Agnes is always popular and she is an event-only doll (apart some WClub exlusives) so she's always a part of the convention collection. I read some comments on social media, saying that she's dressed like a maid, but I have not seen many maids wearing miniature crock pumps and a large "diamond" ring. She has a certain French vibe, like a model from a Guy Bourdain photo session or a Helmut Newton one. Gorgeous.

Item # 91324
Paparazzi Darling
Adèle Makéda™
Dressed Doll
2013 Convention Collection Exclusive





This Adele looks even more like Olivia Pope then her previous incarnations. Ever since the change of sculpt, she keeps reminding me more and more of her with every release. I love the top but would have preferred it asymmetrical rather than this more conservative option.

Item # 91325
Bittersweet
Eugenia Perrin-Frost™
Dressed Doll
2013 Convention Collection Exclusive




A beautiful Eugenia, with violet eyes and red hair! I love the dress too, both colour and cut are amazing.The only thing out of place is those pink lips - a coral shade would look so much more modern and would compliment both her hair and outfit.

Item # 91326
Breathless
Véronique Perrin™
Dressed Doll 2013
Convention Collection Exclusive





The first of the two Veros in the collection. I have no idea why there had to be two Veros, why not Kyori or another of the many characters of the FR universe? This one looks gorgeous though, and the detail of the back of her jacket is lovely. Shoes look great too, pity the rest of the accessories are basic. And I just noticed that there are no bags to be seen throughout the collection. Hope this trend does not transfer to the 2014 Integrity collections.

Item # 91327
Brazen Beauty Natalia Fatalé™
Dressed Doll
2013 Convention Collection Exclusive




This Natalia is almost a dead ringer for Miami Glow Vanessa Perrin - the colouring, the hair, the gold accents, the embroidery, everything reminds me of her.Beautiful but a bit boring. I like Natalia more in darker colouring.

Item # 91328
Bewitching
Véronique Perrin™
Dressed Doll
2013 Convention Collection Exclusive




This is the aforementioned second Vero doll. She looks a bit different in her eye design. The dress is nothing extraordinary but she has nice jewellery (with a ring!) and lovely black patent stiletto pumps with red insteps.

Item # PP054
Star in the Making
Poppy Parker™
Dressed Doll 
2013 Convention Collection Exclusive





Poppy is a dead ringer for Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's here - but in white instead of black. If they had released this type of Poppy instead of the Holly sculpt in the BAT collection, it would have been so much better. Amazing doll. We want more like this one in the regular collection please.
