Poppy Parker Palm Springs Collection part 1: the dealer dolls

After getting the first doll of the Palm Springs Poppy Parker Collection way back in February 2021 (as a W Club Upgrade), and two more dolls as W Club exclusives for 2021), collectors finally witnessed the reveal of a full blown line up. The long overdue reveal was eagerly awaited by W Club members and thankfully it did not disappoint. With all the pandemic problems wrecking havoc on production and delivery all over the globe, this feels like a return back to normal - even though there is no normal to go back to anymore. What we are not going back to are the prices. They were already way up there, and with most of the dolls of this release going through dealers, it was only bound to go higher still. With Poppy being Integrity Toys money maker though, the raised prices did not seem to deter collectors, who snapped up the dolls ion no time. We got four dolls through dealers, we will get a gift set with 1 and a half doll (lol, check the next post for it) plus a fashion set and a furniture set through IT Direct and the W Club. Below you will find the items from the collection available via IT dealers. All dolls will be pre-orders, slated for shipping sometime in Spring 2023.

First up a gorgeous sun-kissed blonde Poppy that is the embodiment of everything Palm Springs was back in the late 60s, which is the era David Buttry, Poppy’s creator, was inspired from for this collection (he specifically mentioned 1968-1971 and the famous Slim Aarons Poolside Gossip photo). Part of her inspiration was also Priscilla Presley, back in that era. Unfortunately, the doll lacks the raven hair colour of Priscilla, thus becoming one more big haired blonde Poppy, of which we have hundreds. The face screening is definitely Bergdorf Goodman - ground breaking. The dress is gorgeous, but does not justify the hefty price tag, even with the lovely new jewellery design. She is beautiful though, which was the reason I almost had her under consideration for pre-ordering, until Sparkling Sunset appeared.

Golden_Glow_Poppy_Parker accessories

Since she has just a short dress, they should have added some more bang for the buck - where are the liquor bottles and cocktail glasses we got with previous doll from this collection? At least she has a full suit eof jewellery and a lovely barrel bag, a very popular style of the era.

The Story:

A wide-brimmed hat to protect her from the sun and a coordinating festive pastel ensemble was all it took for Poppy to be the prettiest blossom at the Palm Springs Garden Club!

12-inch articulated doll with fully rooted hair;

Breezy light-pink, ¾ sleeve summer two-piece skirt and jacket combo;

This is the underdog of the collection. She reminds me a lot of Poppy Go See from the Model Scene collection. A suit, even in a pastel colour like this, is not what I would associate with a young woman in Palm Springs, even moving in the social scene and art gallery crowd as David mentioned during the presentation. I am sure older ladies in Palm Springs wore suits like this, but it looks a bit off on Poppy. At least she does not have straight hair with a middle part, although the pulled back hairline is a bit severe.

Brimming_With_Blossoms_Poppy_Parker_doll accessories

She comes with a hat in a matching print to her bodysuit, cute earrings, a quartet of colourful bracelets, pink mules with a horse bit (Gucci anyone?0 and a matching bag - if it had a horse bit decoration too, it would have been perfect. The mule means she has the articulated ankle feet, contrary to Golden Glow’s high heeled feet.

Sparkling_Sunset_Poppy_Parker_doll

The Story:

As Poppy Parker stepped out into the last rays of sunlight, ready for an elegant dinner and evening out on town, everyone couldn’t help but notice that her coral gown matched the hues of the setting sun perfectly. It was as if Palm Springs itself was giving her its seal of approval!

Sparkling_Sunset_Poppy_Parker_doll

Included:

12-inch articulated doll with fully rooted hair;

Coral pink floor length satin evening, with delicately placed bead and sequin accents;

Intricately designed glamorous chandelier style earrings;

Matching cuff bracelet;

Oversized ring;

Satin clutch purse with bead accents;

Satin high-heeled pumps;

Pair of long-manicured hands;

Pair of regular Poppy Parker hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

One of the best dolls in the collection is Sparkling Sunset Poppy. She wears a lovely empire waisted gown of embroidered satin, that tapers at the bottom. It certainly brings to mind the one worn by Moonlight And Kisses Darla. And is it a coincidence that this Poppy has the same platinum blonde hair and brown eyes as Baby It’s You Poppy that was released along the aforementioned Darla? David said she started with a different dress way back when he first begun working on the collection.

Sparkling_Sunset_Poppy_Parker_doll accessories

The dress also reminds me lot of the Breakfast At Tiffany’s pink cocktail dress worn by Audrey Hepburn and of course, by both her doll incarnations by Mattel and Integrity Toys. The glamorous jewellery would certainly not be out of place in that film. The clutch is cute but the shoes are a bit of a let down - why not do something like Roger Vivier’s pilgrim pumps with diamante buckles? I love the doll and am happy to be confirmed for her.

The Story:

As soon as Sergio Silva set foot on the grounds for his weekend stay, he was the talk of the resort! He caught the eye of more than one young lady, so much so that even some of the matrons were daydreaming that he was their poolside paramour!

12.5-inch articulated fashion figure with fully rooted hair;

White polo style shirt and slim-fit trousers;

Pair of “grip” hands;

Poolside_Paramour_Sergio_Silva_doll

Sergio is always a feast for the eyes and this appearance is no exception! He is totally inspired by a guy appearing in one of Aaron Slim’s Palm Springs poolside photos - and also channels the infamous prototype Sugar Daddy Ken, not produced by Mattel. I was quick to add him to my pre-order because he’s fabulous. The jacket’s print is the same as the ice bucket’s from Resort Ready Poppy Parker. and also matches the lining of his tote and his swimming trunks.

Poolside_Paramour_Sergio_Silva_doll accessories

Yes you read correctly, he comes with more than one look. A suit, a swimsuit, two shirts, a pair of horse-bit moccasin shoes (Gucci?), a pair of slides, a tote and a golden (of course) watch,, to match his golden rimmed sunglasses. He is so gorgeous that I can overlook the fact that his look is not that far from his Brazilian appearance, no?

Giselle Diefendorf makes a comeback as the 2nd W Club doll of 2022

How do I know that a doll is not to my liking? I procrastrinate befiore writing about it. It happened with the first club doll and, unfortunately, it happened with the second ione as well. And one that arrives so soon after her predecessor. This time we have a collaboration of David Buttry and Jessy Ayala, two really talented IT designers, with results that are far from overwhelming.

The Story:

Giselle Diefendorf is excited to be attending the opening of the hottest art gallery in London. She knows that she made the right fashion choice for the evening when she noticed that her ensemble complements the primary colors of the art exhibition.

Surprisingly, though, she thought the paparazzi would be all about the art, but was amazed to discover that she herself was the primary subject!

She’s a nice doll. In fact, I have been waiting for a pale skinned, darked haired Giselle for years now, to have a Glam Addict substitute. But this one is not it. The doll itself is very much like a basic doll. Minimal make up and plain, mid-parted long straighht hair. And she’s off to a London gallery opening? Girl, do I have some news for you! The dess has a cute print and quite a lot of stitch work on it, which is nice, but it all getrs lost in the print. In fact, the stitching on the print looks ugly. And to top it all of, they slapped a generic fur ltrimmed bomber jacklet on it. Plain chain chocker completes the look fittingly (yes, I’m being sarcastic). The only thing that elevates the whole look are the cobalt blue tights combined with matching platforms. I would have liked to see some colour blocking on the outfit too, instead of the print. Imagine this with a yellow dress and a purple or red jacket instead. The Versace bag is nice but cannot save this alone. I think this is the first time that i am passing two W Club dolls in a row.

New East 59th Basic dolls are announced!

Integrity Toys had announced that they would gradually change the basic dolls in all lines earlier this year. The first new one have been unveiled and they are from the East 59th line, designed by Chris Stoeckel. A new Victoire Roux and the first basic guy, Augustus "Gus" Blake, are the new additions to the basic doll releases. Integrity Toys is tweaking the process slightly. For W Club members, they are taking a pre-order for the new entries in the East 59th collection and members may order 1 per membership at special W Club pricing. That means at least one guaranteed doll per member, which is great! No more hassle and anxiety. It makes more sense for me to have members pre-order and have dolls made to order, just like with regular club dolls. Easier for the company and the buyers! The company also mentioned that “While the initial idea behind these dolls is to manufacture them "Open Edition" style (which means that more will be produced once they sell out), Integrity Toys reserves the right to "retire" these designs based on their overall popularity level at any point. Once that happens, it means that they won't be produced again.” 

Non members will be able to order the dolls once they come in stock. Depending on the edition size of the initial pre-order, it is possible that orders may have to be shipped in waves (meaning, that even though you pre-order now, you may not be in the first batch of dolls that arrive and may have to wait for a second or third batch to be produced). We will know after May 20th if multiple shipping waves are necessary.

I was not expecting another Victoire as a basic doll for East 59th but here she is, in all her blonde bombshell glory. I suppose they wanted to add a blonde one, after the redhead and raven versions. This one has a better swimsuit, two piece instead of a single one, and it is in a lovely polka dot fabric. Typical accessories, lovely face. The club discount price is the basics price of last year, the public will be getting them $10.00 more.

I love that we are getting a Darius/Gus as a basic doll, he’s one of my favourite guys and cannot have enough of him. Nubian skin tone too! I love his swimming trunks (can we have a real life pair like this to buy too?) and he’ll look gorgeous next to Laird in his striped shirt. I’m definitely getting this one! I’m not so sure about the pleather espadrilles though.

The end of Dolly Days 2021 brought a variety of offerings: a Monarch, a Meteor and lots of hair

Dolly-Days Day 5 was the last day of the “unofficial” event of Integrity Toys (delayed this time from December to January). A day with offerings by designer Vaughn Sawyers that included a guy from the Monarchs Homme line plus a lady from the Meteor line, along with some accessories. They are all made-to-order* (up to one of each style per membership) for W Club members. They are extra from the five 2021 W Club exclusive dolls, so this means we are still waiting for our fifth club exclusive (either a NU Face or a Fashion Royalty doll).

Romain makes an appearance in Dolly Days - it’s been a while since we last saw a Monarch (was it the twins?) and he certainly looks a bit downtrodden for a much vaunted financier. He’s not even wearing Off White or Louis Vuitton. He’s too plain dressed to pass off as a Monarch and at that price range - Club Lukas was $5.00 more expensive but was wearing tailored clothes (two sets of them) plus more extravagant shoes and bag. I’m not convinced I should pay so much for a sorry pair of jeans and a hoodie.

Sound_Individual_Romain_Perrin_doll accessories

The coat alone is not making the cut - Integrity has released much better overcoats (Bellamy Blue anyone?). A couple of records and a pair of headphones don’t sugarcoat this bitter pill I’m afraid. This could have looked so much better if the coat was in a different colour (silver or white?) with more groovy pants (degrade jeans? how soccer mom), a trendy pair of trainers, the hoodie with a nice print at the back and a logo-ed t-shirt. When you brand a guy doll (enough with this figure nonsense, it’s 2022) a Monarch, he should have to show more (he does not even have the Monarch body) to justify the name and the price tag. Just sayin’.

My_Fair_Hair_Zuri_Okoty_doll

I love Zuri Okoty and this incarnation could very well be her best so far. And yes. the tooth gap has returned and I can finally own her with it! Plus the cropped. almost white hair is a favourite style to see on a black doll (Kith Barbie I am looking at you) and this looks so good. Hair face is gorgeous and the idea with the wig is very welcome - I don’t think we have seen Integrity doing wigs since the first Monogram collection and, further back, the Modern Pompadour line. That Fashion Royalty line was the one that made me fall in love with these dolls and it featured four ladies with wigs as basic dolls (each wearing corseted lingerie). Belle Du Soir Kyori was my first IT doll ever. And I have all dolls from that collection except basic Vero. So I am very excited to see wigs coming back.

My_Fair_Hair_Zuri_Okoty_doll accessories and wig

The only problem with this doll is where the inspiration from the dress is coming from. it is almost an exact copy of a Dolce & Gabbana outfit from 2018. The problem is, this designer duo are known to be racist (the major China incident almost cost them their fortune), homophobes (even though they are gay, they oppose gay marriage and gay parenthood). Not to mention their tax dodging scandals. I’d appreciate it if Integrity Toys did a bit of research before copying such people. Your company name is Integrity after all. And I am certain that there are so many other designers out there to be inspired from.

Good Hair Wig Pack

Edition Size: TBD

Retail Price: $75.00

(Only $15.00 Due Now to Pre-order!)

Designed to Fit Meteor Dolls

*WIG PACK ONLY INCLUDES 3 WIGS LISTED BELOW; OTHER WIG PACK AND DOLL SOLD SEPARATELY.

Meteor_doll_wig red

Included:

One pixie length vibrant red wig;

One waist-length brunette curly wig;

One thigh-length blond micro-braided wig.

The first wig pack that comes today has three different styles: a short red one (that’s not a pixie cut though, pixie is a much shorter style, like Audrey Hepburn for example, or Jean Seaberg, or Twiggy), a micro braid one and a long curly one. I have a short black wig from Monique’s that’s styled exactly like the red one.

Meteor_doll_wig_curly

I also have an afro wig from my Urban Antoinette Adele Makeda, which I like better than those unruly curls, so I am not getting the pack just for the micro braid one - which looks to be two-toned. The red one on Zuri reminded me of Mary J. Blige. I noticed that while on the specifications they write that the wigs fit Meteor dolls, in the “storyline” for each set they mention that the wigs are designed to fir most 12” dolls. Go figure.

Metero doll wig long bob blue ombre hair

Included:

One shoulder-length aqua wig with ombré shading at the middle part;

One waist-length two-toned (brown with black underneath) wig with bangs;

One buttocks-length sable wavy wig.

Meteor doll wig brown with bangs

The brown wig with the bangs looks a lot like the wig of my Belle Du Soir Kyori Sato, so that’s one I already have. The sable one does not look very well styled, so that leaves only the aqua blue one - not getting the pack for just one wig. I don’t know why but Zuri in the photo with the aqua wig reminds me of Khandi Alexander.

Integrity Toys Dolly Days continue with the East 59th collection: La Femme Godiva

Third day for Dolly Days and the East 59th line had a date with the W Club - just like the previous time! Four dolls for the collection titled "La Femme Godiva" and a stellar job overall from Chris Stoekel! One of the four dolls is a lottery-only, W Club exclusive, the three remaining ones are dealer dolls. If you have not contacted your dealer yet, do it now. Just a reminder that some dealers put them directly on their website and do not take pre-order emails. Also Sideshow will probably put them up tomorrow, as Friday is the day reserved for W Club members to preorder.

This is by far the most gorgeous doll of this collection! Chris has done an incredible job with her, again a bit Mugler inspired I guess - this time though more adjusted to the appropriate era for East 59th (Mugler did the fur coat too back then). The fur, the bodysuit, the skirt, wow! We have seen all the accessories before, but who cares if they match so well for an exquisite ensemble? The doll is a new character but the face looks familiar. Chris confirmed in a comment on one of his Instagram posts that it is indeed a refreshed old sculpt. When I first saw her, I though of the original Kyori sculpt but more experienced collectors have commented that it it probably Alysa from the old Integrity Toys playline dolls. In any case, she’s beautiful and I hope I win the lottery for her. W Club members have until January 31st, 2021 at noon Eastern Time to enter. If they win, they have to pay only $30.00 as a first Instalment to secure the doll, that ships in summer, when the rest of the amount will have to be paid along with shipping.

The second appearance of Miss Della Roux (third if you count the scrumptious OOAK one I got from Chris Stoeckel and Integrity Toys as a gift for interviewing him live on Instagram) is a smashing one. Dressed in powder blue, with matching accessories, Della hits the ball right out of the park! She gives off Dominique Deveraux (from the original Dynasty TV series) vibes. Pure perfection. She’s sold out at most dealers and I can understand why.

Another new character introduced in this collection, Brasilian Maeve initially reminded me of the original Victoire sculpt (which was Dynamite Girls Jasper), but that one had a much more delicate nose - people who know better recognised the Integrity Toys playline Jade doll sculpt. Probably refreshed too, like Cora. Beautiful doll with a striking outfit - its versatility and different pieces plus the cigarette holder remind me of the first Constance outfit.

Evelyn is always sure to be one of the best dolls in every East 59th line up and she surely does not disappoint here. The cut of her outfit brings to mind her first outing but in quite a different concept. The Egyptian hieroglyphics print is very original. Two minor points: a. I’d love to see her in different hairstyles and hair colours and b. I would have preferred the accessories to be in that lovely shade of green from her outfit instead of powder (get it?) pink. Just nitpicking here.
