Welcome to the Fashion Doll General!
A thread for discussion of fashion dolls including Barbie, Disney, LOL OMG, Rainbow High, Monster High, Licca-chan etc but not BJD. There is a BJD general over in /jp/.
Other toys considered dolls as well as girl collectable toys that are related to dolls or can be used as accessories to dolls are also welcome such as LOL, Shopkins, Polly Pocket and the like.
*Reminder to ignore trolling, bait and off topic posts instead of responding.*

Are any plastic boots I find on the secondary market (e.g. FB Marketplace, EBAY, Mercari) or buy "new" from those Chinese sellers, that say they are 1/12 going to fit a Ken doll?
I'm essentially trying to make a custom "Ken" (with an actor's face) similar to the I'm Just Ken of Gosling with the fur coat that they made for the movie, but for a totally unrelated different thing.
And PICREL looks like it's meant to be a background crap, not something a figure actually wears?

Sorry, my bad - I did mean 12" - not 1/12.
It IS for a Ken doll, I've had a beach boy type Ken so he had a tan, for a bit, and already have the head swap done. I will need to do some touch up painting on the skin tones, but no point in doing that if I can't complete the clothes.
I'll need to do some sewing, but that I can manage on my own.
Boots I need to buy. Think something like the classic Captain Action Red Boots, but plain - not like PICREL.

Why doesn't Mattel turn the fang vote options that didn’t win into a fashion pack?
It seems like every year a segment of fans hoping for a particular combination on fang vote dolls, and when their options don't win they skip the doll entirely.
Since voting is split into 2 rounds, I get the hunch that those who are disappointed by winning options revealed after the 1st round of voting, might retaliate in the 2nd round by voting for the unpopular option (based on what gets hyped up online). I heard there was a bug in the voting system that allows a single player to vote on their option multiple times by simply refreshing the page.

I'm continuously surprised G3 has still not been canceled. Every new wave shelf-sits forever. I work with young kids and absolutely none of them even know what MH is. Meanwhile G1 re-releases or skullectors sell out super quickly. Just bring back G1 fully.

Playline KDH dolls have been revealed. Not bad considering it's Mattel, but still too many plastic accessories. I demand the rest of the Saja Boys.

>make doll of an obese person
>refuse to make a new bigger body type
>just put it in super baggy clothes and hope no one can tell the difference
I wonder if the real life lady is offended.

Opal Lee is not obese, and she does wear baggy clothes irl. The doll is accurate

But not obese. Pretty similar to the Curvy Barbie actually. I'm more pissed that Mattel just painted wrinkles onto a standard face mold instead of using an archival old face mold from Barbie's grandma or something. The painted lines look like ass.
