Harley Qwednesday :: Sideshow Collectibles Sixth Scale Harley Quinn

Does anyone have $189.00 (plus tax and shipping) they want to donate to my dolly fund?

"Did I pop one cork, or...umm...no corks? Well, are you feelin' lucky, punk?"
Pour me a cuppa' and call me Mrs. Nesbitt because damnitalltohell I WANT THIS DOLLY!

When first announced, this Sixth Scale Harley Quinn by Sideshow Collectibles looked nice and really caught my attention. But there were a couple things that kept her from being an immediate home-run.

First, in the original pre-order solicitations, her tassels were backwards. They fixed that issue (thank goodness!)

The second issue was the corset - namely, was it removable so you could get a more comic accurate costumed Harley Quinn?

"Who says a gal has to show skin to be sexy? Countin' my make-up, I ain't showin' ANY!"
Well that is obviously not an issue either - the corset is removable, and of course it's not a dolly unless you can undress it, right?

So basically, this dolly is incredible looking and I want one. I WANT A TWO HUNDRED DOLLAR DOLLY!

If I had the couple Benjamins to spend on this dolly I would do it in a second.

And I would hug her and pet her and call her George. UNABASHEDLY!

Thankfully for my nominal grip on reality, I do not have the moolah to waste on the most wondermous dolly in the history of dolly-kind. 

Also, she comes with swappable heads, hands, a mallet, a stand, etc. so you can change her expression and poses and the stuff she's holding.

Because JUST hugging and petting her would be weird.

"Please Hammer, hurt 'em!"
Normal people dream of winning the lottery so they can buy a mansion and a yacht. Is it sad that I dream of winning the lottery so I can buy a Harley Quinn dolly?

Yes, yes it is.

Oh well. I gave up 'normal' the day I started this blog.

Sigh. Sorry Harley dolly. It was never meant to be!

Harley Qwednesday :: Now THAT'S A Dolly! :: Sideshow Collectibles 1/6 Scale Harley Quinn

In February 2014 Sideshow Collectibles will be releasing their 12" 1/6 scale Harley Quinn, and boy howdy does she look nice!

With two interchangeable heads (each with a wonderfully sculpted expression!), multiple hands, a mallet, a cork gun and a sideshow exclusive butcher's knife, Harley has everything she needs to cause mischief to your home...

...and to your wallet. She's currently available for pre-order for $189.99, plus shipping one assumes, from Sideshow Collectibles.

But just look at her...surely she's worth every penny! If I had $189.99 laying around I'd buy that for a dolly!

I would prefer her classic look to the corset and combat boots, but they look removable - maybe you can trim her down to her classic look? She is a dolly after all, and dollys were made for undressing. And tea parties.

Whatever the case may be, I do love that mischievous expression!

The maniacal smile is tops too, but the reverse 'HA HA' brass knuckles are the real highlight. I wish I had a set of those for real!

The 'Your Face Here' on the mallet is also quite brilliant!

The original art shows Harley's headgear tassels correctly colored, but for some reason the finished product has them reversed. I wonder if this is a mistake or if they will all come this way?

Whatever, the corset and combat boots already veered her look from classic, so it's a forgivable variation I suppose.

Now if only I could win the lottery before February!

Poisunday Ivy :: Play Arts Kai Poison Ivy

Square Enix Play Arts Kai Arkham City Poison Ivy - say that five times fast!

The Arkham Asylum/Arkham City Poison Ivy is not my favorite look for the character, but these Play Arts Kai figures appear to be quite the feats of action figure engineering and aesthetics (although I have not personally seen one, I'm going only by what I've seen online.)

They're also rather spendy -Poison Ivy will cost you around fifty dollars to pre-order right now, with a release date scheduled for July 2013.

Sideshow Collectibles revealed their new 1:6 scale expensive-dolly line-up at San Diego Comic Con this year, and one of the first few to be released will be none other than Harley Quinn!

I don't know what that corset is all about, not sure I like it, but the face sculpt is pretty keen!
