Doll-A-Day 2019 # 117: Disney Fairies

 I think I have solved my headache quesion. While they may have started as headaches caused by my coughing,and continued as stiff neck headaches.I think they are continuing because I have a bad tooth. I knew it was cracked,but I had to solve my heart problems before it could be checked over to see if it was savable. Since then I've been going to a couple of doctors for my thyroid,plus the ear,nose, and throat doctor for my LPR. The dentist was going to have to wait while all those bills were being paid off. Well now I can see that the tooth needs taken care of NOW. Hopefully that will get rid of these headaches. I have to call the dentist on Monday.
  Today's doll is a set of dolls.



 

 They're the fairies from Disney's "Tinkerbell and the Legend of the Neverbeast" movie.



This set was a Disney Store exclusive in 2014.


You may have seen previous posts I've done on the Tinkerbell fairies dolls. (Look in the sidebar under Tinkerbell dolls.) I have said before,I never liked Tinkerbell as a character, but I love the dolls that have been made in the past few years. The faces are so pretty. These are no exception. They have beautiful glowing complexions.


 



Included in the set are Tinkerbell...

...Vidia...


Iridessa...


...Fawn...
 

...and Rosetta.


They're beautifully detailed little dolls for only being 6 inches tall.


Tinkerbell has pom poms on her shoes, and Fawn has boots. 
 

Everybody else has plain slippers.
 Their wings have nice patterns, and each pair is different.





  That's it for today. Sorry some of the pictures left something to be desired, Fuzz borrowed my camera and my battery died,so I had to make do,with no retakes.

Doll-A-Day 2019 #44: Periwinkle

  I found today's doll at Goodwill on Monday. We had snow that day, but before we  got home it was getting dark. So taking a snowy picture had to be left for the next day. Of course, by then the snow had all been rained away. I had to wait until today to photograph her. Today we have snow again. Who knows what tomorrow will be like? This is Ohio. It could be 90 degrees tomorrow.
  Today's doll is one I have been wanting since I saw a review on The Toy Box Philosopher's blog, back in 2015. She's Periwinkle.


Periwinkle is Tinkerbell's twin sister.




The character Periwinkle appeared in the  Tinkerbell movie,"Secret of the Wings".
 

You can watch a trailer for the movie HERE. It's available for pay on YouTube too. 


  Periwinke is a Frost Talent fairy from The Winter Woods. So the snow is just her thing.


This is the Disney Store version of Periwinkle.

 

She has the jointed elbows,(But not  jointed wrists.), and bendable knees of the Disney Store dolls. In other words,she has soft legs that are a bit floppy. They don't seem as bad as some Disney Store dolls though.

Her arms swivel at the shoulders,so she can move them up and down and out to the sides.



There were other Periwinkle dolls made by Jakks Pacific. This Disney Store version is my favourite  though. I love her one sided smile and her glowing complexion.


 

Her outfit consists of her capri pants,(When I was a kid we called them 'pedal pushers'.),and her dress which looks like a leaf.





The white underskirt is made of feathers in the movie. I thought this one was feathers at first,but it's not. It's sort of hard to describe,but I guess the closest thing to call it would be frayed thread.


She should also have blue slip on shoes with white pom poms on the toes. That's the only thing missing from my doll. The amazing thing is that she isn't missing her wings. Most Tinkerbell and friends dolls that I find second hand are missing those. I think these wings aren't removable,which is why they are still here.
 

The wings, being a thin plastic,are usually bent or creased too. So finding her in such nice condition was real luck. Her wings actually flap,courtesy of the button on her back.



She has a strange hair style that looks kind of like a pod of garlic.



  That's the doll for today. Check back tomorrow for another one.

Recent 1/6 Scale Dolls and Goodies From Goodwill

  Having health problems recently means I haven't been out much. I have been very few places,and haven't even stopped at my favourite Goodwill most of the times I have happened to be near it. I have stopped a few times, especially lately,since I have been feeling better. I have made two hauls in the past week or so,and only just brought one in from the van that has been sitting in there ever since before  I started feeling so awful! So, to start with some of the latest 1/6 scale finds, here's what I was lucky enough to get the last couple of times I stopped at my favourite Goodwill.
  Any time you're lucky enough to find fully dressed dolls at Goodwill,especially with their shoes, it's a good day! These girls were waiting for me. 

The bigger girls were $1 each,and the Strawberry Shortcake Lemon Meringue was 50 cents.
Disney Descendants  Signature Evie Isle of the Lost doll,complete with her shoes.


Disney Descendants Signature  Mal Isle of the Lost doll. She's wearing her complete outfit too.



Ever After High Ashlynne Ella. 

 
This is the one from the set that came with the Hunter Huntsman doll I got at the flea market last fall. She was shoeless when I found her, but I found this one shoe floating around loose in the tub of dolls she was in, and put it on her, just because. It turned out to be hers! I didn't see the other one, but the tub was pretty full of dolls. Maybe it will turn up at some point. She does have a mark on her face I need to clean off, but it doesn't look like it will be a problem.


Ever After High Apple White. I have another one of these,which I showed you before,but this one is complete, including her bolero jacket,tights, and shoes.



This means I can use the other one to experiment with repainting a doll. Wednesday night Ken and I stopped at the same Goodwill on our way to Valentine's day dinner, and Ken spotted this for me!


It's Apple White's bed!
 


Plus it had some stuff in the drawer.


There was the little mirror that attaches to the bed in the drawer too.


I also got another Ever After High doll, Raven Queen.



This one is Getting Fairest. I'm amazed she still had her shoes,considering they are mules, and have no rubber bands on them.
  This little Strawberry Shortcake friend,Lemon Meringue even has her hair do dad.


And I got yet another Tinkerbell! And she's different from any of my others! How many millions of these things have they made?!


This Chelsea friend is technically dressed, but her clothes are painted on. She even has her shoes though.


Speaking of shoes,remember I got a few Project MC2 dolls,but they had no shoes? Well somebody I brought home from Goodwill the other day ended up wearing these MC2 shoes...

I dropped one bringing the stuff to where I was photographing it,but I did get two.
 I did get a few naked dolls too, that were too pretty to pass up. This Mulan is one.



This Mystery Squad Drew. (I already have one, so she won't be staying.) She needs some stuff removed from her face.


This tall Fashionista. I don't like the dress she comes in anyway. I do have to find her something to wear now though.



This especially pretty Disney Store Belle.



This Elsa. Which one is she?



This Barbie Swan Lake Fairy Queen doll with the Teresa head sculpt.

 


I have a couple, but this one still had her headband. When I got home I noticed part of it is broken off!
This Liv doll.


The jointy body is always handy.
I did pass up a Happy Family era Midge that was especially pretty,because I think I already have that one,and she had a chewed hand. Afterward I thought that I could have rebodied her and tried customizing her. Oh well...

When we were there Wednesday evening I found this Disney Store singing Coronation Anna.

She's pretty, but her song is really annoying.


I buy most Anna,Merida, and,to a lesser extent, most Tangled Rapunzel dolls I see. I wish Anna had had her clothes, but maybe I'll find them some day too.
I also found some really cool 1/6 scale accessories. For one thing, I saw this Barbie Smasheroo jacket laying on the shelf on the other side of the doll aisle!


It's the real vintage one, not the repro! I love this outfit. I have the repro doll and outfit, but the vintage one is so plush. This one has a small brown spot on the left shoulder, but I think I can probably clean that off. Other than that it's minty!
  I got this owl picture frame,this electronic violin,and this Pirates of the Caribbean chest too.


I'm pretty sure this is just like the electronic violin I got for Emma when she was a kid. Emma plays the violin,and I bought it for her Emma the Doll.


It runs on batteries,and plays when the bow touches the strings.


 I also got these three Melissa and Doug mini crates. They are slightly big for 1/6 scale, because they are about 6" wide,but still could be useful.


The top one has a board missing, but I'm thinking I will probably make something 1/6 scale out of them anyway. I'm not sure what yet, but I'm thinking. I could always fix the one with a popsicle stick too.
  Way back when I was feeling really bad I was out to go to the doctor one day and felt the need to actually do something, since it had been so long since I had. One of the things we did was stop at Salvation Army. I found this mini plant pot and this wooden shelf.


The plant pot is definitely  1/6 scale, but the shelf could be 1/6 or 1/12. As a bonus,I already have one that matches it!
  Those are my 1/6 scale goodies. Next time we'll look at some larger dolls I also got.
