I have saved or scanned articles of interest from doll magazines with a file drawer filled with these. <br /><br />You're right about doll magazines these days; there are really none that offer much of interest. Now that Doll Reader and Dolls have merged, Dolls is better than it was in prior years. For now, I will maintain my digital subscription to Dolls (it's only $10 a year for 12 issues).<br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-42679763707536247162012-06-13T06:07:26.487-05:002012-06-13T06:07:26.487-05:00Interesting to look back and see dolls that intere...Interesting to look back and see dolls that interested and not so much interested you. I have all my Barbie Bazaar & some Miller's magazines. I'm going through those in stages but removing the articles I want to keep and getting rid of the rest. <br /><br />I love reading through my old magazines since there is really no new doll magazine out there that interests me.Dollz4Moihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18386314679264566475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-40688672407550064572012-06-12T14:12:59.596-05:002012-06-12T14:12:59.596-05:00LOL!

She seems to be the only sculpt used without severe modifications. The others needed improving, in my opinion.<br /><br />This is a good question to pose to Ms. Goodland as well as what ever happened to the new Mixis that were planned for 2009/2010 release. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-46676927465366784532012-06-12T09:25:57.824-05:002012-06-12T09:25:57.824-05:00BTW, I hope you find Imani at a good price.

Yes, Younique Gemz ...Thanks for this post, Debbie!<br /><br />Yes, Younique Gemz seems to have been the first name of the doll series we now know as the Mixis. When I first looked into the <a href="http://phillycollector.blogspot.com/2008/09/new-series-mixis-biracialmultiracial.html" rel="nofollow">Mixis dolls</a>, I came across that name and those photos. YBU Group released information about the <a href="http://www.prweb.com/releases/2006/02/prweb341233.htm" rel="nofollow">Younique Gemz</a> line in February 2006. The Emerald shown in your photo resembles the Emerald that we have today except around the eye screening and the hair style. I don't know if any of the dolls were sold under the Younique Gems dolls. That would be an interesting question to ask Ms. Goodland and the WLBD Group.D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-57925332410158615592012-06-12T06:06:18.984-05:002012-06-12T06:06:18.984-05:00Thanks, Vanessa.

Imani will surface in due time, if it is meant to be. <br /><br />I usually have some form of reading material in bed with me, and doll magazines are no exception. I realize I do not need all of the ones I have accumulated. I have been pleased to discover that they will be of use to others globally. Yesterday one went to Germany and four went to New Zealand to a repeat buyer. It has been nice to refresh my memory on the past articles and images as I browse through, but one refresher is enough. They must go. I have approximately 35 more to list either individually or in groups. Lots of work... but I will do it, a little at a time. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-21302164470404054002012-06-12T05:00:03.286-05:002012-06-12T05:00:03.286-05:00Doll magazines are hard for me to part with.

I vaguely remember seeing something about the Keeping It Real dolls. Their faces kind of remind me of the MyScene dolls. Hope you find an Imani at a good price.Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027064808344974667noreply@blogger.com
