Elise on the Lawton Loop posted pics from the UFDC 2002 National Convention. Looks like lots of fun dolls to be had. How do you choose?

Reba posted pics tonight of the recent GGGC meeting, featuring talented repaint artist, Holly Miner and a Repaint Workshop. Yes, my BOP looks beady eyed...but she really isn't. LOL.

I have new respect for repainters...they deserve the prices they can bring for their talented brushwork.

On another note, I saw the new Bratz dolls at Target over the weekend, including the new BratzBoys Blaine and Cameron. (I think I am remembering correctly.) Target featured an entire endcap of them.

I was at K-Mart today and noticed that the Bratz in the summer clothing were packaged differently then the ones I saw at Target. They were in clear beach bags with a drawstring top. The dolls themselves were not in boxes, but rather a "blister" pack...sorta along the lines of action figures and Hot Wheels cars.

And speaking of Bratz, my friend Kim tells me there are two new sets that have been released, including a boyfriend AND a new girlfriend. She has red hair, and from what I saw, very very very cute.

Marcia has the scoop and the pictures on the recent CU Convention in Atlanta. The Savoire Faire Sydney was gorgeous in a pale peach ensemble.

And I have heard that the AA Silkstone is shipping! FINALLY!

That's all this time around...I wish the weather was cooler. LOL.

Am I the only one who doesn't have a Sydney?
