Back to Brooklyn Remi

I've had Remi for about 3 years, and today I decided to debox him.


He is handsome and tall with well-made clothes and accessories. His mohawk is a little off-center, which bothers me a little. His hair is rooted down the middle and flocked on the sides. I would have preferred the previous Remi with the afro.

This is not how I personally would have chosen to dress him, but I kind of like his attire. I really like his jacket. His T-shirt snaps partially up the back. The pockets on his pants are real, but he can barely get his hands into them because they are so tight. Remi's hands are removable, which makes redressing him easier.

As he was trying on his hat and jacket, Janay wanted to come by and say hello. Remi thought that she looked a little cold in that dress, so being the gentleman that he is, he offered his jacket and hat to her.

Other Fashion Royalty friends came by to say hello and welcome Remi out of his box. Remi is about the same height as Darius Reid, so he's a tall guy.

Remi's pants come unsnapped when he sits down. Adele and Darius didn't stay long.

Below, Remi shows off his articulation. He did not come with these underwear, they are borrowed. He is jointed at the elbows, wrists, knees, and ankles. His chest articulation allows him to bend slightly from side to side. He can also bend forward very slightly, but he can't hold that pose.

 Janay decided to help Remi show off his articulation.

Remi has great balance and is able to hold poses really well, even while holding up Janay.

Remi finds it much easier to sit without his tight pants.

Overall, I think that Remi is a great figure and I am glad that I was able to get him. I can live with his off-center hair, which is really my only gripe. His body is well-sculpted and I love his articulation. Janay is thrilled that I've finally released him from his cardboard prison, and I think that they make a stunning couple.

    1. Hi Muff! The Fashion Royalty guys are quite good looking. I couldn't resist having a couple of them. I'll probably add more before all is said and done.

    1. Hi Ms. Leo! I always knew that I'd take Remi out of his box. I resisted as long as I could. :) The quality of his clothes is great. The style had to grow on me a little. Remi borrowed those boxer briefs from Triad Omega. Remi is slightly taller than the new Janay.

    1. Hi The grandmommy! It seemed a shame to let all of that articulation go to waste with Remi in that box.

  8. He looks great. He is probably glad to be out of the box and now he can socialize and get to know Janay better.

  9. Remi does look good with Janey and since she already caught his eye, it was meant for him to be out of the box.

    1. Hi Brini! Janay had to have him. Not too many guys here are taller than she is. :)

  10. Congrats on having Remi and on deboxing him.

    You gave me a laugh about his tight pants. They look tight. Usually, we don't hear about guys' pants being so tight the button pops open when they sit. I don't blame Adele and Darius for leaving soon.

    Remi and Janay make a handsome couple. I wish them many years of fun and affection.

    1. Thanks D7ana! His pants are just as tight as they look. Remi and Janay thank you for the well-wishes!

  11. He is good looking and he and Janay make a great couple. Can you brush his mohawk so it is more centred or is that the way it is rooted?

    1. Hi Carrickters! His hair is rooted that way. I could probably minimize the off-center appearance a bit by brushing his hair a little, so that's a good suggestion. I'll have to try that for his next photo shoot.

  12. Sigh.. he is a good-looking dude... I really should add boys as models :) Fun post there :)

    1. Hi Shasha! I really do like his looks. I have to try to keep my male-to-female doll ratio about even, otherwise the ladies want to riot. :)

  13. GASP! I won't dare do an Ebay search because my heart won't be able to take it. What a tall glass of water!

    1. Valsays, after reading your post, I just had to do an ebay search to see how much he has recently sold for, and WOW. That's all that I can say.

  14. Remi is cute. I like that he can stand and hold weight. I had to laugh, because I was thinking, just because he needed to take off his clothes, did Janay need to also? She certainly was flirting in her lace. That last photo certainly explains her intentions.

  15. Thanks for your comments, Jaye! I guess Janay really didn't have to take her clothes off, but she felt comfortable in doing so. Perhaps she wanted another opportunity to show off her own articulation as well. :)
