Integrity Toys new collections 2014: Event Doll - High Visibility Agnes

As is usually the case in on-line presentations (or webinars as they call the method of doing them), Integrity Toys had a special event doll created for the W Club members. High Visibility Agnes Von Weiss will be made for all members who pre-order her and is not available to the public. Members have until May 21st to pre-order her.

Item # 91349
High Visibility Agnes Von Weiss™ Dressed Doll Mini Gift Set 
The Fashion Royalty® Collection 2014 
W Club Online Event Exclusive 
Suggested Retail Price: $135.00 US 
Limited Edition Size: TBA 
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately Late Summer/Early Fall 2014 


Doll Tech Specs: 
Body Type: FR 2013 
Head Sculpts: Agnes Von Weiss 
Quick Switch Feature: No 
Skin Tones: Japan 
Hair Color: Strawberry Red 
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied 


Agnes Von Weiss, the 2014 online event doll, is a fully articulated 12.5-inch vinyl fashion doll with an polished hairstyle and hand-applied eyelashes. The Baroness' look is composed of a two-piece jacquard ensemble with laced-up eyelet details and a faux-suede sleeveless biker inspired top. Agnes also sports a fashionably tall straw hat, sunglasses and an oversized purse. The outfit completely transforms by changing into a long mermaid skirt, revealing a bustier top. Two pairs of shoes, jewelry and doll stand also included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


Another Agnes as an event doll - she is after all designated as a character that is available only at events. The gift set offers a great opportunity to mix and match, and also fits with most of the other Safari collection pieces, so endless possibilities there. The price is the same as for a regular doll so it's value for money too. The doll looks good, although I had to look at the close up photo to make up my mind about getting her. The lipstick looks as if it is not following her trademark frown. It does not look bad but it is not a classic Agnes expression. Again, this is only a prototype doll. And, yes, hoop earrings again. Meh.

Integrity Toys new collections 2014: Fashion Royalty goes safari

Just like with the Poppy Parker line, W Club members already knew well in advance what the main theme and inspiration would be for this year's Fashion Royalty release: Safari. The Vanessa upgrade doll gave us a good indication of how the line would look line, one that was even more pronounced with the appearance of the much coveted Elise Montaigne Market limited edition. The line presented has six amazing dolls (plus the event doll that also fit in, but she gets a separate post here). So along with the upgrade doll from the beginning of the year, the core 8 dolls are all present in the FR collection as promised. All of them look amazing, with well executed outfits, great accessories and a coherent enough look - although a couple of them do look a bit far-fetched. The one thing I was eagerly expecting and did not see: a great safari jacket, in the style of that master of the look, Yves Saint - Laurent. What a missed opportunity. 

Item # 91342
Elusive Creature Natalia Fatalé™ Dressed Doll 
The Fashion Royalty® Collection
Limited Edition Size: 800 
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately August/September 2014 
Suggested Retail Price: $135.00 


Doll Tech Specs: 
Body Type: FR 2013 
Head Sculpt: Natalia Fatalé 2.0 
Quick Switch Feature: No 
Skin Tone: Hispanic 
Hair Color: Serengeti Blond 
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied 


Natalia Fatalé's look is composed of a short sleeveless safari vest over a 3/4 sleeve power-mesh top and short pleated skirt. Natalia sports a large brimmed hat and accessorizes her look with a faux-snake skin purse and a set of gold jewelry and sunglasses. Natalia Fatalé is a 12.5-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with Serengeti Blond hair and hand-applied eyelashes. Doll stand included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


We have seen this hair style on Natalia several times. Looks like the designers do not know what more to do with her hair, which is a same - Latina girls are very particular about their style and hair is very important! Come on people, make Natalia less boring - she's the bad guy of the story, have some fun with her. Even a side part here would have looked so much better. The outfit is nice but not amazing, the belt is wrong for the style (big buckled wide croco/snake style would have worked so much better).


Poor Natalia, you wanted so much to be this:

Doll Tech Specs:
Body Type: FR 2013 
Head Sculpt: Elise Jolie 
Quick Switch Feature: No 
Skin Tones: Japan 
Hair Color: Black Panther 
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied 


Elise Jolie wears a vibrant saffron floor lenght colored gown, completed by a gold tone faux-croc clutch purse, matching jewelry and intricate gold strappy heels. Elise Jolie is a 12.5-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with black hair and hand-applied eyelashes. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


Gorgeous Elise - although I would have liked her in blonde. We have had two raven haired Elise dolls in the convention and a red-head from Montaigne Market, so a blonde/platinum haired one would have been amazing. Her make up does remind me of her French incarnation (which is good), minus the gold glitter. Lovely dress, with good draping on the hips. The neckline draping looks uneven on the prototype but I hope it will be corrected on the production dolls. Her accessories are fantastic and fit the look perfectly. She's a keeper.

Doll Tech Specs:
Body Type: FR 2013
Head Sculpt: Kyori 2.0

Kyori Sato wears a look composed of a sleeveless safari jacket over a jacquard woven skirt. Kyori Sato is a 12.5-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with brunette hair and hand-applied eyelashes. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


What a beautiful version of Kyori. Her eye-shadow does look a little pronounced but it fits the look and usually in person it is more subdued. Love the outfit, the colouring, the accessories. Her bag is an exact replica of the Jourdan bag from Jason Wu, in a colour not available for real people. Sleeveless jackets like this were in Jason's real collection too. Pet peeve - hoop earrings again? 


Item # 91347
Full Spectrum Véronique Perrin™ Dressed Doll
The Fashion Royalty® Collection
Limited Edition Size: 700
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately August/September 2014
Suggested Retail Price: $135.00


Doll Tech Specs:
Body Type: FR 2013
Head Sculpt: Véronique 2.0
Quick Switch Feature: No
Skin Tones: Japan
Hair Color: Brunette
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied


Véronique is dressed in a form fitting red hot cocktail dress, elegantly accessorized with earrings, some bracelets, a ring and matching shoes. It also has a slim leather belt. Véronique Perrin is a 12.5-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with brownette hair and hand-applied eyelashes. Doll stand included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


This is one of the most beautiful Veros I have seen, but also the most plain. The dress has a great cut and colour but the accessories are minimal and most of them we have seen before. It does not justify the price the way the other dolls of the collection do. She reminds me a lot of one of the dolls in the first Monogram collection, Incandescent.

Item # 91348
Vivid Encounter Adèle Makéda™ Dressed Doll
The Fashion Royalty® Collection
Limited Edition Size: 400
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately August/September 2014
Suggested Retail Price: $135.00


Doll Tech Specs:
Body Type: FR 2013
Head Sculpt: Adèle 3.0
Quick Switch Feature: No
Skin Tones: Light Honey
Hair Color: Raven
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied


Adèle Makéda is wearing an olive green gown, which is accessorized by a newly designed necklace and bracelet, as well as a coordinated gold clutch. Adèle Makéda is a 12.5-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with raven hair and hand-applied eyelashes. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


She looks a lot like the convention Adèle but with different colour eye shadow. The dress is a bit of a mess, the skirt draping not as distinct or as tailored as it should have been. I love the shoes. Was expecting more of an African princess though. Imagine Elise's dress in this olive green - would have been fabulous.

Integrity Toys new collections 2014: Poppy Parker

This year's theme for the Poppy Parker collection became known ever since it was mentioned in the convention back in 2013. One of the W Club upgrade dolls was a Poppy as a spy, part of this line as well. But, even though the theme was known and the inspiration predictable (Avengers, James Bond, 60s spy films and TV series), everybody was wowed when the many dolls comprising this collections started appearing on their screens. Poppy is supposedly acting in a spy TV series after her friend and mentor Loni secured her the starring role. The whole collection looks great and very coherent. And so many dolls!

Item # PP060

She's a gorgeous doll and I wanted to get her but I finally settled on two other dolls from this collection so she had to be left out. I know I will regret it at some point but you can't have it all. Brilliant doll.


Item # PP061
Spy-A-Go-Go Poppy Parker™ Dressed Doll

A gold lamé beret, tall metallic gold boots, sunglasses, gun and jewellery complete this look. Poppy Parker is a 12-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with warm brunette hair and hand-applied eyelashes. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


Another beautiful doll. The extreme use of gold and the turquoise eye-shadow is what made her a no-choice for me. She's fun though!


Item # PP063 
Agent Kimiko Gunn Tina Tanaka™ Dressed Doll 
Suggested Retail Price: $120.00 US 
Limited Edition Size: 700 
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately Summer 2014

Head Sculpt: Ayumi 1.0
Quick Switch Feature: No 
Skin Tones: Japan 
Hair Color: Raven 
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand Applied 


Guess who's back - the original Ayumi face sculpt. Here it is used to introduce an Asian friend of Poppy's, Tina Tanaka. She plays the role of Agent Kimiko Gunn. She wears a white and orange mini dress with orange mesh details and a matching cropped orange jacket. Over the knee white boots, large white sunglasses, orange hoop earrings and a colour coordinated orange chrome gun complete the look. Tina Tanaka is a 12-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with raven hair and hand-applied eyelashes. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


Ayumi is one of my very favourite sculpts. I own the very first Ayumi doll so I have been expecting her re-release with quite an anticipation. And here she is, in the Poppy line! It was a surprise for all, and a welcome one at that. I love her look too, the dress, accessories and styling is amazing! And, as the outfit is very mod, she will fit perfectly with the mod Poppy dolls from two years ago.


Item # PP064 
Agent Penelope Chase Jolie James™ Dressed Doll 
Suggested Retail Price: $120.00 US 
Limited Edition Size: 350 
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately Summer 2014

Jolie James is a 12-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with brunette/raven mixed hair and hand-applied eyelashes. Doll stand included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up. 


She looks cute but it is pink overload! Anyone else getting a Lea Michelle vibe from the doll? Great details on the dress. The coat fabric looks a bit cheap and bulky.


Item # PP065

Limited Edition Size: 700 
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately Summer 2014

Loni Lawrence is a 12-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with golden blond hair with a platinum streak and hand-applied eyelashes. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.    


Everybody was expecting a special Poppy for the 5th anniversary of the doll but I bet no one expected this! To tell you the truth, when I saw Loni I thought I would not get her, even though this is the best incarnation of the  sculpt. And I thought I could save money to maybe get Lotta Danger instead. Ha! When the silver-haired Poppy appeared, I knew I had to get her. Brilliant idea and execution.

If you thought we were done with older sculpts getting re-introduced in this line, think again! Francisco Leon is reincarnated as Loni's real life brother, Lex Lawrence. He stars in the series as Sebastien Havoc, Sebina's right hand man and twin brother. He wears black leggings, a black turtleneck with mod tunic, knee high boots, black sunglasses, and carries a gun. Lex Lawrence is a 12.5-inch fully articulated vinyl fashion figure with blond streaked hair. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


Great reincarnation of Francisco, although not my cup of tea. If his hair comes as it looks in the prototype, he will look amazing.I have enough Franciscos with long hair though, even though they are not blonde.


Item # PP067 
Mayhem in Monte Carlo Poppy Parker™ Dressed Doll 
Suggested Retail Price: $120.00 US 
Limited Edition Size: 800 
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately Summer 2014 


Doll Tech Specs: 
Body Type: Poppy Parker (12-inch) 
Head Sculpt: Poppy Parker 
Quick Switch Feature: No 
Skin Tone: FR White 
Hair Color: Strawberry Blond

Poppy Parker wears a floor length fuchsia gown with detailed embroidery on the bodice and dramatic bow on the shoulder. Completing this look are black pumps, white opera length gloves, detailed jewellery, and a silver chrome gun. Poppy Parker is a 12-inch fully articulated vinyl fashion doll with strawberry blond hair and hand-applied eyelashes. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


Such a beautiful doll in such an ugly dress. I think this dress is the only thing in this collection that stands apart as the worst thing included. The doll though is gorgeous. Her face and hair are amazing. The hair looks too 70s though, mainly because of the sweeping strands parted on the side. A fringe or nothing at all on the forehead would have made this look so much more 60s.


Item # PP068
Code Name: Arm Candy Chip Farnsworth III™ Dressed Doll 
Suggested Retail Price: $120.00 US 
Limited Edition Size: 700 
Estimated Ship Date: Approximately Summer 2014

Body Type: FR Homme (12.5-inch) 
Head Sculpt: Chip Farnsworth III 
Quick Switch Feature: No

Hair Color: Black

When I heard the nickname "Agent Arm Candy" for this version of  Chip Farnsworth III, I almost fell off my chair laughing! He wears a pink brocade tuxedo jacket, black slacks and shoes, a black briefcase, and he carries a black gun. Chip Farnsworth III is a 12.5-inch fully articulated vinyl fashion figure with rooted black hair. A doll stand is included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up.


Great looking doll but I already own a tuxedo wearing Chip (and that one is much better looking than this one). He looks exactly like his nickname says: arm candy for Poppy.
