"What if I made the 1959 Barbie with a 2003 Polly Pocket?" I said,
"I can repaint her whole face, that definitely won't hurt my eyes!" I said.
Yeah, I really like the 1959 (first) barbie doll design, so I decided to have fun by making a tiny doll of it, rerooting her hair was surprisingly easy! I think I'll do more Polly pocket customization in the future...
If I ever find one with hair again!

Several days ago I found my very first doll I bought as an adult. That was the beginning of my doll collection. Back then I wanted to buy a Monster High doll but I missed every single one I really liked. So I ended up with Ever After High Cerise Hood in its basic version. Some time later I thought I'm not fond of that doll to the extent I want to keep it, so I sent it to a friend who was making OOAK dolls. I was very surprised when she sent the doll back to me but it was now completely different. She made a lovely OOAK doll - did the repaint, reroot and even sew the clothes. I really like the new look of that doll. It had a black faux leather jacket but unfortunately the leather started to peel over time and moreover it stained the doll's forearms. I really don't know what to do about those stains, I tried acetone but it didn't work. I suppose I should sew some kind of mittens. Anyway, I'm not gonna get rid of that doll because it reminds me how my collection had started.
These days I have no time to take decent photos so I just took those snapshots on my way home from shopping. That colourful graffiti simply caught my attention, finally some nice art instead of just random scribbles. And since it's spring I took a photo of blooming white lilac.

Really struggling with this thing where so many dc characters have blue eyes and black hair, and also there’s only one main face sculpt for dcshg.
Huntress/Helena Bertinelli is on the left - I repainted the lips and just added a little purple to the eyes for variety. She started as Wonder Woman. I picked the blue strands out of her hair and filled it back in with black, too.
Madams Rouge/Laura de Mille is in the right. Started as a supergirl head, repainted eyes, lips, and eyebrows. Rerooted. She’s on a Blackfire body - the Blackfire body is the whole reason I’m making a Madame rouge:

It’s all about those arms and legs.

Here's my sealed work on my repainted Ken Looks number 5! I'm super happy with him. The only problem is his under-eye area turned out shinier than I was hoping. It was already like that before I sealed the repainted work with a few layers of MSC matte, and a single layer of MSC gloss. Otherwise, I am happy with all other areas of his face after sealing. I like using a light layer of gloss in-between, because it adds a nice "dewy/human-flesh-like" finish to my more "realistic-ish" repaints. However, I am not sure why it looks hyper shiny at the chin and under the eyes. Although, it was already like that before I sealed the work, as I said. I didn't expect to look like that after the layers of MSC matte. I don't mind it IRL too much, particularly the chin. But those under-eyes...
I might have to mask-off all other areas and add a layer or two of more matte fixative. I don't want to completely dull all the rest of the face, as I am happy with how it looks IRL otherwise. Just not super excited of how those two areas photograph. We'll see...
I took a lot of crappy repetitive photos of him; I am super happy with him now. Not the repaint work as I always feel I could have done a better job. I'm just in-love with how he looks in general, now. I like more realistic-ish looking repaints, and this is definitely a lot less cartoony than my last repaint work on him. So, I am happier for that reason. I do find this head sculpt extremely beautiful, otherwise I wouldn't have purchase one, let alone two (to customize one). I wasn't happy with the default chin, brow-bone and lips sculpting, so I modified the brows and chin a bit during my first repaint on him, back in 2022. I forgot about those when I repainted him a few days ago, so I just did a quick softening of the chin once again, but I thought I could have sanded even further. However, now that he is sealed and "finished," I feel like I don't mind the chin so much anymore. It is a pain to have to paint it to look the way I want it, instead of it just being the shape and size I want it to be. However, I don't mind it anymore. I am happy to leave him like this forever!
I say that now, watch me redo his face paint and mods once again in a few years. Lol! (; I am in love with this Ken, even if I am a crazy old fart who wants to mod and repaint things a million times over! I only wish I knew how to re/style hair a tiny bit, so I could try different hair styles on him. Or, that I was willing to re-root or shave him. I hate re-rooting dolls, and I like his hair style as is, a lot. I only wish I could restyle the hair, from time to time! I'm also petrified of doing anything because his flocking keeps falling off all over the place! That's what's on his face on some of these photos at his chin and lips. In case some of it is visible, I kept blowing it off his face, only to find more a few seconds later. I keep his hair in a plastic wrap "hat," to keep the hair from getting messy, but I don't know if that's the reason for the flocking to be coming off all the time, or if it's just a natural thing with flocking. I don't own that many flocked things that are unboxed -- or that I handle at all! Last four are from my older than dust phone, because it takes slightly better, hyper-washed-out photos, the newer likes adding a pound of noise and they are always dark as the dickens, which I would love, if it wasn't for the extra-crispy pixels.

Finished the sculpt modifications for the baryonyx! I made new teeth, trimmed the hand claws so they look sharp, added to the neck and jaw, and sculpted over the ribs so he doesn’t look half starved anymore. Next step is paint primer, which I can do as soon as it’s above 50 degrees… #repaint #figurerepaint #dinosaur #dinosauractionfigures #actionfigures #styracosaurus #paint #touchups #beastsofthemesozoic #creativebeaststudio #customactionfigures #customactionfigure #actionfigurerepaint #beastsofthemesozoic #velociraptor #feathereddinosaur #floof #pyroraptor #actionfigurecollection #hammondcollection #mattel #baryonyx #spinosaurid https://www.instagram.com/p/CoAokWnp5Cf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I keep forgetting to post my dolls lmao

A Draculaura I customized some months ago.
This is the Latin America super duper budget Draculaura.
Tumblr media
How she originally looked.
The hair she comes with is the fucking worst, Mattel really outdid itself here with how cheap it feels. it’s a pain to handle even after boil washing and conditioning. The upside though is that at least this meant I felt no guilt experimenting on it with hair cuts and styles lol.
Tumblr media
I gave her asymmetrical kinda choppy bangs? And then proceeded to make hair extensions for her and braided them into an attempt at butterfly buns.
Tumblr media
I also repainted her eyes and lips. I miss her G1 purple eyes and I also wanted to give her more visible fangs over dark, glittery lips. Glued lashes on but her bangs cover the lashes of her right eye.
Bonus:
Tumblr media
Used pastels to try and make the pink in her hair a bit more vibrant. The dresses I got at the flea market! The first one is a bit loose at the chest but this second one fits like a glove.
Those shoes are LOL OMG shoes! I managed to get them to fit using hot water.

Polly Pocket customization 2: Electric Boogaloo
And this time, it's Allan!
I decided to torture my eyes once again to turn an (hilariously ugly) polly pocket into the one and only Allan. I thought about making Ken first, but honestly, his first design wasn't that interesting and iconic, and the polly pocket I found had a face sculpt closer to Allan's than Ken's. And I really like that Allan and barbie are matching with their stripes.
Btw, check out what the polly pocket looked like before, I wheezed so hard when I found him:

He look like he's high on glue

Guys I think should be in MOTU: Origins
My love of MOTU Origins is not very hidden, and they've hit tons of great points, but there's so much further to go. So, here's my rundown of what I'd want to see joint the MOTU Origins lineup.
Section 1: Give it the Sun-Man Treatment.
Blackstar
Tumblr media
The proto-He-Man of yore, Blackstar as an IP is probably well within the price range for Mattel to sweep up to sprinkle into the line the same way Sun Man's universe was.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
For advantages, it's VERY aesthetically compatible and has several strong character designs. It's no more obscure than Sun-Man, and I want hordes of those imp-demons, damnit.
BraveStarr
Tumblr media
Again, a no-brainer. Find the character rights holders, get the rights. New Texas is out there in space, use it as an excuse to do MOTU:Origins versions of the New Adventures designs ("space travel" He-Man) and Rio-Blast. If they already own all the rights then them not having already done this is toyetic malpractice.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Advantages are obvious. BraveStarr rocks. You have a POC lead hero, Tex-Frickin'-Hex, and Thirty-Thirty, who would be well worth the extra tooling to make a deluxe figure of (you can always do an upgraded Stridor repaint). You would scatter them through waves to keep from overloading with the Space Cowboy thing, but def a winner.
Also, Rio-Blast. Rio-Blast, Yo.
Tumblr media
Skeleton Warriors
Tumblr media
It was never strong enough to stand on its own. Give Skeletor some friends. 'Nuff Said.
One-Off Guest Stars
This section is a little different, as these wouldn't be permanent integrations, but more fun crossover one-offs rather than being a whole theme. Characters pulled from other Mattel-owned lines of the past:
Mojo Ken and Thunderpunch Barb-E
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here's the thing. This line is dead stupid, and should remain that way. Give Ken two heads (one 'bad' Mojo head and one 80s toy Ken style one) give Barbie weirdly plausible MOTU gear, the joke alone is worth the parts reuse. Best if nestled in with some Princess of Power characters.
Lets give Captain Power a hand, folks.
Tumblr media
Its that live action TV show that interacted with the vehicles that landed in the uncanny valley between family TV and advert-traintment that never quite works!
Captain Power and Lord Dread are pretty much the only ones you'd want to hit, maybe the Soaron Sky Sentry. And really, they're not that hard to do. Captain Power could easily be made with Roboto legs and upper arms, any number of gloved hands, a new chest armor and a new head.
Any newly tooled pieces would be useful in MOTU movie and new adventure characters.
Tumblr media
The Construx Alien demands your respect.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I know it makes no sense, I don't care, it's my list. He's amazing and needs to be big and buff with a weird hand.
Major Matt Mason has nothing better to do.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This set's a stretch, as it would require a chunk of new tooling, but again, maybe worth it for the New Adventures and She-Ra applications, plus hey, Astronaut prequel Biff Bestman, Evelyn Powers, and Captain Marlena parts!
He-Man's space-man friend is a role that could still be filled.
Next Up... Crossover Potential.

I'm probably biased against Pearl Serpentine cuz I always found her Gollum like voice to be especially grating when trying to watch Great Scarrier Reef, and I wasn't as much of a fan of her coral lips, especially when this particular shade of coral was the lip colour for every doll at Mattel at one point.
However, putting her in this particular Lagoona fashion pack has made me like her significantly more, which is funny considering how much fashion can change a doll up.
My Pearl is kind of wonky but since I didn't want repaint Peri to match, she can live with it.
