Moxie Teenz Arizona

Moxie Teenz by MGA Entertainment are some of the most beautiful dolls I've ever seen. Unfortunately, they've been discontinued. So many of the wigged, articulated dolls have been discontinued. I don't know why. I wish someone could explain to me why there's such high turnover for these fashion dolls. 

Liv fashion dolls by Spin Master (also discontinued) are my favorite and have the absolute best articulation. But Moxie Teenz had better clothes and accessories and beautiful faces. 

This is Arizona. She has blue, acrylic, inset eyes and gorgeous brown skin. This is the outfit and wig that she came with. She originally had ugly, tacky gold plastic jewelry that I got rid of. And I immediately lost the ring that was on her right hand. I knew that wouldn't last long. I cut off the off white, lace tights that were attached to the skirt because the were ugly and reminded me of the Eighties. I DO NOT want to be reminded of the Eighties. 

I got her for a very reasonable price on eBay. Sellers on eBay usually sell discontinued dolls for insane amounts of money. I can't believe that anyone would buy from those sellers who are obviously trying to rip people off. If I ever find another Moxie Teenz for a decent price, I'll definitely buy it. 

Here she is without her wig. Her face and eyes are beautiful. She has long beautiful lashes. I think she's supposed to be biracial or Hispanic. 

Here she is with a different MT wig and her accessories. She's sitting on a love seat that made out of a box, a gift bag, paper and duct tape. 

Here she is standing next to Liv doll, Alexis. Alexis is done up like she could be a character from the movie, Blade Runner. The Liv doll is 11 1/2 inches. Arizona is 14 inches. 

In this photo she's wearing a Liv Daniella wig. She looks good in different wigs. 

A Moxie Teenz wig I got from ToysRUs for $3. Right now idiots are trying to sell these same wigs for exorbitant amounts of money on eBay. They should be ashamed of themselves. 

Another MT $3 wig and a dress and a hat that I made for her. I learned how to make the dress from a My Froggy Stuff tutorial on YouTube. The hat tutorial is by Chad Alan on YouTube. 

The only highly articulated dolls I see at ToysRUs and Target , right now, are Monster High and Barbie Fadhionistas by Mattel and Bratziilaz by MGA Entertainment. All the good dolls have been discontinued. Moxie Girlz suck. They're a cheap version of Bratz. They're isn't anything special about them. Bratz Catz are articulated as well but I don't see them in stores any more, either. 

I'm bored with Monster High and I CAN'T STAND Barbies. I might just stop collecting dolls until companies start putting out more dolls like Moxie Teenz, Liv and BFC, Ink. 

Right now, I'll just focus on the dolls that I have.

Our Generation Doll - Sadie

I bought this doll from Target for $18.99 on sale. Originally, they cost $22.99. Well, I always wanted an 18 inch doll and I'll never pay American Girl prices because I just cannot afford it. Besides, I don't want one that badly.

Here she is in her box. I originally wanted the African-American doll, Abrianna, but when I saw her in the store I knew I had to leave her there because she's a butt-ugly doll. Her hair looks nothing like it does on the website. Her outfit was adorable, though. 

I just got an American Girl catalog in the mail. Even the American Girl dolls of color are as ugly as sin itself. 

Sadie has a very cute, sweet looking face. She has blue eyes and a very tanned complexion. 

A few of the other Our Generation dolls had this same exact face mold with different color eyes and hair. 

Here she is outside of her box. She stands quite easily on her own. As you can see, her clothes are nothing special. There isn't anything underneath the sweater. I was disappointed about that. 

Her she is sitting down. 

From the back the skirt is kind of jacked up. It looks like something I made and my sewing sucks. 

A better view of her headband and bow. It's cute enough. Unfortunately, my cat got a hold of it and shredded it. 

This is how the back of her head looked after I got her out of the box. Her hair is long and she has plenty of it. I've heard it's nowhere near the quality of the American Girl dolls. It gets matted and tangled in no time. I have to keep it braided at all times just to keep it from turning into a rats nest. 

I bought her a pack of 3 pairs of eyeglasses and 1 pair of sunglasses. 4 pairs in the box for $6.99. 

They are adorable. When I went back to Target to get more accessories they were completely sold out. Probably girls who have AG dolls are buying the accessories for their dolls. 

Here's Sadie and Heart for Heart Girl, Lauryce. Sadie has on a babies shirt that I got from a thrift store and converted into a nightgown. Her eyes close when she lays down. 

Lauryce is prettier and has a more realistic looking face. 

The Our Generation dolls are a great and affordable alternative to American Girl dolls. I like their accessories and I want to get more. I don't think I'll be getting the car, horse, bed, camper or bike. Those things are just too big for my small apartment. 

Here she is wearing a hat, leggings and a T-shirt that I made for her. I had a lot of fun.

Heart for Heart Girls Doll - Lauryce

Today I went to Target to purchase this doll. I'd read a couple of pretty good reviews on doll blogs and the dolls are really cute, so I got one. 

I'm writing my own review because I'm disappointed with this doll. It cost $24.99 plus tax. I think that is much too expensive for this doll. A very small amount of that goes to some charity. But still, I don't know why this doll costs so much. 

She's 14 inches tall and very slim. It's a small doll with no exceptional articulation.

She comes with cute earrings, bracelets, a worthless comb that might be good for an infants hair, beautiful eyes, a sweet face, and a booklet. Her dress is cute, her shoes are plastic and it was nice of them to mercifully give the poor doll a pair of panties. 

The booklet is well made with an interesting story with color photos, something about New Orleans, Katrina, Haiti, Creole and a rabbit. Maybe most of the money goes towards making the booklets.  

The dolls look completely different than the Playmates Toys, Inc.'s stock photos so its best to see these dolls in person. 

One of the major disappointments for me was how thinly rooted her hair is. The company that makes these dolls, Playmates Toys, totally skimped on the hair. This doll will be wearing lots of hats and scarves. To me that is the worst sin for a doll company to do. 

As you can see, her hair is long. It's thin but appears to be thicker because its crimped and wavy. I love textured hair. 

I wanted the doll that comes from Ethiopia but I've never seen her at my local Target. Ever. As a matter of fact, these dolls are usually sold out at my Target. 

These are her shoes. They're actually a much lighter rose color in person. They're bland, cheap and boring. 

I got Lauryce because she's very sweet and pretty. Her hair is a beautiful color and texture. I think she's biracial. You know, the Chanel of dolls? I do like her jewelry. I might get her an outfit on Amazon (I didn't see any at Target), or I might learn how to sew and make her something cute. 

I'm not buying anymore Heart for Heart Girls dolls. Not for this kind of money. It's a great concept but I can't justify the cost. I'd rather have an 18 inch BFC, Ink doll. These dolls cost more than Our Generation dolls and you get less. 

I could also see a young girl ripping this doll to shreds and snatching her completely bald with that comb.
