Robert Tonner Poison Ivy Deluxe Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)In addition to the Harley Quinn, we purchased the Poison Ivy Deluxe. Like Harley Quinn, she's just a big different than the comic/animated series.
Ivy has a full head of red ringlets that are quite striking. I especially like how the leaves are woven into the hair and stay put as if they belong there (appropriate for Ivy). The hair doesn't mess and she displays beautifully. Her skintones throughout her body are green and the costume is the right mix of quality and materials.
The things I nitpick about the doll is that her gloves never stay on correctly and the boots and gloves are perhaps a bit too shiney - they look a bit cheap compared to the dress and hair.
As with the Harley Deluxe, Ivy is fully articulated. She is a large doll - nearly twice as big as a Barbie doll and much wider. As such, she makes a striking display and feels more like a figure than a doll.
The face sculpt is quite lovely but she definitely tends more towards the Uma Thurman Ivy rather than the animated series or comics (which is a shame).
In all, a beautiful doll and a very striking display. The series also features a Joker that feels very much pulled from the comics - and he doesn't blend as well with Ivy and Harley as a result (he's a bit too cartoony compared to their reality-inspired features). That said, I am very happy with my purchase and can easily recommend this to Batman collectors.

Robert Tonner Brother Dreary Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Tonner created the Dreary siblings - a sort of emo goth family of youngsters for the modern generation doll collector. One of the last siblings to be added was this doll - breather dreary.
Brother Dreary is a large doll - nearly twice the size of barbie doll and quite wider. Since he is fully articulated, he can be arranged/posed in quite a few interesting positions. This makes him a very good decorative piece since you can change the way he looks all the time and keep him 'fresh'.
Dreary's outfit is very quality - a black cotton Chinese inspired, frogged (buttons) top and matching loose pants. Underneath is a grey cotton undershirts. He comes with appropriate black hair.
I don't have the other Dreary dolls but purchased this one because of the long hair. The outfit is appropriately dreary but, admittedly, far too much on the bland side for me. I'd rather have a bit of mystery and quirkiness in the character and the outfit just doesn't have any of that at all. Honestly, the outfit just makes him look dull. I'm looking forward to redressing him (I will have to buy male clothes from Tonner due to the size of the doll).
The face sculpt is lovely and the hair is especially fine. Really, it's the hair that makes this doll since it can be hard to find male dolls with mid length hair.
In all, I was pleased with the purchase but rate this 4 out of 5 stars because dreary doesn't have to mean dull (as the other dolls in the Dreary line demonstrate with their outrageous goth fashions).

Tonner Goldilocks This Dish Is Too Hot Doll Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Tonner's Goldilocks is part of the ReImagination series (which included Red Red Hood as well as a whole sinister circus).
Goldilocks is a large articulated display figure - she's twice the size (and much wider) than a barbie doll. The articulation means you can pose her in quite a few interesting poses and keep the display 'fresh' each time.
Her outfit, true to most of Tonner dolls, is quite eleaborate and beautiful. She has a flounced soft chiffon dress with a very large soft blue bow in the back. Her stockings are thigh high and she has leatherette bots. Matching topless sleeves compliment the arms and she has a matching bow in her hair. Her teddy bear fits neatly into her arms and completes the look.
If I have to be nitpicky, it's that the picture is accurate and she does look very much like an older woman pretending to be a child. And by older, I mean over 40. I think it has to do with the make up and the nearly platinum color of the hair (which might have been better served being more of a golden hue than whitish since the white looks like old age grey hair). I think what is offputting is all the makeup - it's just a bit too much for a doll based on a very young and innocent child. I wish Tonner had kept her with more natural and soft make up and a much younger face.
Granted, these dolls are a modern fashion reimagining of the fairy tales - grown women in fashionable clothes inspired by the tales. The thing I didn't like with this doll is that she comes off as much, much older than what I would expect a fashion model to be (and there's nothing wrong with older - just that I don't expect a 40 year old woman with heavy makeup and good skin to be playing a fashion model playing a child character). It's missing the innocence and trust of the Goldilocks character that way.
In all, she is a lovely doll.
