Videos

I've decided that I want to post more videos.  Prior to posting Calista and Bob's latest video, I had only posted 5 videos in nearly 5 years.  And let me tell you, although I enjoy putting together the videos, doing so can be very time intensive!  I did not expect to spend nearly an entire weekend day putting together Calista and Bob's video, but that's what I did.  I can't spend that kind of time very often, but I want to post more videos.  I decided to learn another video editing software program, hoping that things would be a little easier with that one.

I am learning a new software program, and in the process I have created some new videos.  Some of them were much easier, some not so much.  My Articulated Dolls and Action Figures Comparisons video below was truly a labor of love.  While it did not take me an entire day, it took me several hours.  And when I think about the hours that went into posing the dolls and taking the photos, well, like I said it's been a labor of love.  I hope that you enjoy, and if you do please click "like" and subscribe to my YouTube channel.

I also created a video review for my Prettie Girls Lena doll.

And I created a video for my Monster High Wolf family dolls (Clawdeen, Clawd, Howleen, and Clawdia).

These were fun!  I made it a goal to create 10 new videos this summer.  I've created 5, and I want to make 5 more this month.  And I want to make at least 1 video per month for the rest of the year.  Also I want to create at least 1 video using a different video editing software program than the 2 I've already used.  Let's see how it goes!

More Stuff

I've wanted this one for a while, and now Kwanzaa Barbie has finally come to join me.

She came with her box, but the box has been opened.

For now I will display her in her box.

I'd never wanted a Justin Bieber doll.  I've walked right by them time and time again in stores (but I did buy one of the clothing sets for my other teen boys).  But then someone on Facebook posted about how the prices of these dolls had been falling rapidly amid the recent troubles that the singer has been having.  Someone else made the point that it would be worth the cheap prices just to get the clothes, and that caught my attention.  I remembered seeing a JB playset that I liked on Vanessa's blog, and decided to finally search for one and I picked this one up since the price was right.

I need some doctors and nurses around here.  My dolly infirmary is overflowing, and my dolls are not getting any help from me.  I have a GI Jane nurse, but she came here without any of her gear.  She would probably try to punch me in the face if I put her in this, but SOMEBODY'S got to step up and help my injured dollies.

 Here are a couple of additional photos of my Phicen (that they are not calling Jinx).  Also, here is a video of my Jinx vs. Jinx vs. Phicen comparison that includes some new photos and some video footage.
