It's time to play want/want no part of
Sep. 2nd, 2009 01:58 pmI haven't done one of these in awhile and since I'm trying to not reignite my Dal/Pullip love [which has been difficult at times, not so much at others] we'll go with the new AG stuffies.

Rebecca's Hanukkah outfit is actually, from what I can see, several different kinds of pretty. I say actually because if you want your eyes to burn out of your skull, you should look up her movie outfit. Otherwise, you should take my word for it. I'm not really sure how Sam will feel about any of Becca's stuff coming here because, well. Rebecca has essentially stolen her identity, but whatever. Cute. Purple. And I'm loving the furniture in the background, but I refuse to look up the price because until I do, I can dream about it.

Rebecca's coat is awesome and filled with love. Want. Yes. Please. Now.

Rebecca's trunk and costumes. I like that they included costumes in the trunk. I just don't really see me buying it for a hundred bucks. But this is one of those ones I'm hoping to see closer/better tomorrow or Friday... or when I get my own catalog.

Sadly, I hate just about everything about this... other than the sweater. I love the sweater. I want to snuggle the sweater. I... am doomed.

At first I screamed in horror when I saw the dress. But the more I see it, the more I think Ivy would look damn cute in it. I love her furniture. Her fondue set is horribly overpriced. Note to Mattel: Your toy version of something really shouldn't cost as much/more than a real version. Particularly not for a 70's item. Just thought I'd point that out.

I tried to leave out stuff I didn't want from this, but this was just so horrifically awful that I had to share. Everyone else is all, "BIKE!" and I'm still screaming, "MY EYES!"

This is allegedly an ice-skating/dancing dress. This is me not believing it, although the skates (which you can't see) are awfully pretty. This is me pointing and laughing at the hair, too.

This year's holiday outfit, which is basically a re-do of a light pink outfit they did a few years back. The jury is still out on this one. There are other holiday outfits I've liked better, but it's got potential.

^This is what I was most looking forward to. And they fucked it up. Pink and penguins is just not right. Also? That bed? Green and pink has never worked for me and I don't care how often people drag out their color wheels, it will still never work for me. EVER. Plus, I'm totally having Miami Getaway Delancey flashbacks.

Your robe should not look like an exceptionally thin towel. I'm still reserving judgment but it's looking like a no. And that penguin? Is just Mia's with a doofy hat on it. :( Plus side, the penguin slippers (you can't see) that come with the PJs? Are adorkable.

Hate the scarf. Love the idea of the outfit though. Until they tell you the tights aren't included. THE HELL. It's a winter thing and you're leaving her to freeze her ass off?

And I end on an ambivilent note. I love the skirt. I think this is a cute picture, overall. I... don't know how I like the outfit though.
Overall, I am underwhelmed. And not even the 10 Things I Hate About You quote that comes to mind can salvage this.
On the plus side, I can concentrate on other things now.
