You may register now through 9:00 PM ET (New York Time) on February 21st, 2017.
The deadline is concrete, so please make sure that you register well in advance of the deadline. Every year, things come up at the last minute, so please register as soon as possible since once they shut down the links, that is it for the year. As in years past, there are no limits on memberships- you can register for as many memberships as you'd like at any time prior to the 2/21/17 at 9PM ET deadline.
Perks and privileges
Aside from gaining access to the members-only W Club forum and exclusive newsletters, here's a peek at some of the great perks W Club members will get in 2017:
Club Exclusive Dolls
For 2017, every member will have an opportunity (in addition to the upgrade options) to pre-order at least 5 exclusive Club-only dolls, including 2 Fashion Royalty dolls (which may include NU. Face), 2 exclusive Poppy Parker dolls, and 1 additional exclusive doll, plus additional surprise items.
Member Coupon
Each W Club membership that you purchase will automatically add a special $25 coupon to your IT Direct Coupon Wallet that can be used towards ANY IT Direct shopping cart purchase of $99 or more online only during the 2017 W Club year. No more restrictions to W Club exclusive items-- as long as your order is above $99 before shipping and tax, you can apply your coupon towards any order of your choice!*
*Details and instructions for this coupon will be sent to 2017 W Club Members at a later date, including that a one coupon limit will be allowed per order.
Important exclusion: Coupons cannot be used to purchase W Club memberships. Any memberships bought with coupons will be voided, as the 2017 Club year does not officially begin until after registration ends.
JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS™
If you are a fan of the JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS™ Collection, W Club members will again receive a priority 24-hour first-order window for all four of the final JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS™ collectibles sold through IT Direct during the year. Becoming a W Club member ensures that you will not miss out on another hot offering of this Truly Outrageous collection!
Advance doll presentations
You'll get access to MEMBERS-ONLY exclusive online events where the IT design team unveils their latest creations.
Of course, there will also be more "right to buy" lotteries, more exclusives, the chance to purchase your convention passes before members of the general public and many more surprises during the year.
Upgrade dolls
Here are the 2017 upgrade options, an opportunity to pre-order three brand new members-only dolls and, new this year, the upgrade POPUP! Diorama Playset immediately when you purchase your 2017 membership. Plus, for the first time ever, the Fashion Royalty upgrade was selected by our 2016 W Club members!
Also, as a special new 2017 perk, if you upgrade a membership with all three upgrade dolls, you will automatically get the upgrade the POPUP! Diorama Playset for FREE- this virtually covers the price of your base membership.
In addition to the *5* W Club exclusive dolls that will be made available later in the year, you get the opportunity to pre-order these new upgrade dolls/diorama today when you purchase your W Club memberships. Each membership that you purchase today gives you the right to pre-order up to one of each of the following:

Your first W Club upgrade doll of 2017 is an exciting creation, based on the results of the "Your Voice, Your Choice" opportunity that we held amongst the 2016 W Club Members. This new Agnes doll will be designed based on the specs that were chosen by club members voting on a variety of options set by Integrity Toys,
The winning Agnes Von Weiss doll will come dressed in the "Riviera Drama" outfit (which will be based on the sketch you can see above) and sport a side-parted, controlled curl raven hairstyle. Agnes will be done in the cream skin tone and should be delivered sometime in Summer 2017.
Since the vote just occurred last week, Integrity is unable to show an actual prototype of the doll, however, as soon as the designers have completed the task of bringing the doll to life, the company will share pictures with everyone in the Club. All pre-orders will take place based on the sketch above.
Agnes Von Weiss is a 12.5-inch fully articulated doll with full rooted hair and hand-applied lashes. Her raven hair is styled in a controlled curl hairstyle. Agnes comes dressed in a one-piece outfit. Doll includes purse, jewelry, high-heeled shoes and accessories. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. A doll stand and a certificate of authenticity are included.
I voted for exactly this set of options as a member so I'm getting this one and hope the doll turns out as great as it looks in the sketch.
*You can upgrade your membership immediately to include this doll. An additional $25 non-refundable deposit is due immediately at registration time and a balance of $110, (for a total of $135.00) + shipping, handling and taxes (if applicable) per each Agnes doll you add to your membership will be due closer to the actual ship date of the doll, which will happen approximately during Summer 2017 once the dolls have been produced.
Note: The image above outlines the winning specs of the 2017 FR Upgrade doll, as chosen by 2016 W Club members. Final prototype doll to be unveiled later, approximately in the Spring of 2017.

This Poppy looks lovely, and she is also very versatile for redress. I might be getting her too. This year's theme is swinging London so be prepared for lots of mod stuff. Seems logical after last year's elegant early 60s style.

This doll comes complete with a chain ring bracelet and a little filigree egg purse. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. This doll cannot stand alone; a doll stand is included.
This is not for me. As much as I love her accessories and jewellery, I do not like the doll or the dress - which is an Alexander McQueen resort 2017 look:

More Details About Registration 2017
-Access to information and special offers for the W Club related to all of Integrity Toys brands are covered by the base membership.
-You can choose to add up to 1 of each different upgrade option type for each 1 base membership (each upgrade item will require an additional deposit and the remaining payment balance- ranging in price by item- will be billed to you closer to their arrival date.)
-You can buy as many memberships as you want, and for every membership, you can upgrade each with a Fashion Royalty Agnes, Poppy Parker, NU. Face Giselle doll and/or POPUP! Diorama (up to 4 total, one of each item, for every one membership that you buy). However, as described in detail below, if you buy all 3 upgrade dolls, since you get a diorama for free, you can also choose to buy another diorama as a part of that "package".
-Special new 2017 offer! If you add 1 of each upgrade doll to a membership, you will get the POPUP! diorama for FREE! Please note that if you purchase 1 of each upgrade doll, your free diorama will not show up on your order- it will automatically be shipped to you with your upgrade dolls later in the year. If you add 1 of each upgrade doll per your 1 membership, you will also have the option to purchase an extra diorama with that membership for a total of 2, if you'd like an extra one.
IF ALL 3 UPGRADE DOLLS ARE NOT ATTACHED TO THE SAME MEMBERSHIP, YOU WILL NOT GET THE FREE DIORAMA, SO AGAIN, PLEASE DO THIS CAREFULLY AND ASK QUESTIONS PRIOR TO PLACING YOUR ORDER.
-If you want more than 1 of any particular item/doll, you will need to buy a base membership for each doll (for example, if you want 3 Upgrade Poppy Parker dolls, you will need to buy 3 base memberships and add the Upgrade Poppy Parker doll option, but if you want 1 Poppy Parker doll and 1 Giselle doll, you only need to purchase 1 base membership and add on 1 of each doll).

If you would like to purchase multiple memberships, you can add them all to one invoice. Multiple memberships do not have to be on separate invoices.
2- If you are purchasing memberships for other collectors as well as yourself, please make sure that you put their names and email addresses in the comments section before checking out from the shopping cart. If a name is not registered, that person will not be recognized as a W Club member.
3- If you purchase multiple memberships so that your spouse, partner or family member may attend any of the W Club exclusive events (including the members-only W Club luncheon at the annual Integrity Toys convention), this person's name must be included in the comment section of your membership(s) invoice! If you purchase multiple memberships but do not include your spouse, partner or family member's name on one of those memberships, they will not be able to attend any of the W Club exclusive events.
ACT NOW, YOU HAVE UNTIL FEBRUARY 21st, 2017 AT 9 PM EASTERN TIME TO SIGN UP! AFTER THAT TIME, IT WILL BE TOO LATE, NO EXCEPTIONS!
The W Club is Now in Transition
Until registration is over, the club is in transition, so updates will be mailed to both 2016 members and new members. You may therefore receive emails twice.
Also, the club will keep you posted on exclusive 2016 W Club dolls that will be arriving in 2017. Please note that these are exclusive 2016 W Club dolls available only to 2016 Club members who pre-ordered by the deadline. As they are pre-sold out, these dolls may not be available for 2017 W Club members when they arrive.
For the forum, the club will keep your registration active until the 2017 membership registration period ends. However, cleaning up old threads and deleting old topics, etc. will be done to freshen the forums for next year. Anyone not re-registering will be removed from the forum immediately following 2017 registration. It is possible that if the club does not recognize your user name, etc. you may be accidentally deleted during the cleanup. If this is the case, just email them and they will get you reinstated asap. TO HELP THEM RECOGNIZE YOU FASTER, THE CART WILL ASK YOU TO ENTER YOUR FORUM ID AT CHECK OUT WHEN YOU PURCHASE YOUR 2017 MEMBERSHIP(S). THIS STEP IS OBLIGATORY AND WILL HELP THEM SERVE YOU FASTER IN THE FUTURE.
