The little dolls are so cute! [img]biggrin.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
Thanks for posting your Cuddly pictures. I can't wait to get Rachel and Chloe. We took out Kayla, Savanah and Brittany and changed their clothes. They are getting ready for their new friends to come home.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Judi, can you post pics of your older dolls when you get a chance? I'm especially curious to see Kayla, which is my dd's name. She is not in any of my older MT catalogs.Thanks!Originally posted by judiaci:

Abby, I have an old Rachel from the Denver MT. I'll try and get a picture of her for you. Her eyes are much more "normal". I found her at a TS for about $3.

HI,
I think that Rachel's eyes (and Michael's too, I just received him Sat.) are a bit different looking. They are not what I would consider a "real" eye color, or at the least, a very, very rare color that would be seen. Rachel's are a levendar blue & Michael's are a bright blue/green turqouise (sp.?). They remind me of those colored contacts that were all the rage several years ago. They have very dilated eye's too. Josh doesn't, or if he does you really can't tell because they are dark. The dolls also have very long lashes, upper & lower, so that is a striking difference from AG dolls.
Josh is admittedly my favorite of the three. That said, I do not plan on sending the other two back. The more I looked at them, the more they grew on me. No, I don't think everyone will like them & they may not be your "style", but quite a few people will see the beauty in the whole doll. They really are cuties! I think my pictures more accurately capture Rachel's eye color than the MT site.
HTH,

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Your Rachel has really gorgeous eyes! The difference in mine is more of a purple color. The pupil on mine is more "fringed" and not quite as far out into the eye. I do think your's looks more "natural". Thanks for the photo!

Yeah. The New MT company uses different eyes. they don't bother some people at all. My Rachel needs new lashes and her hair redone. She's the only Cuddly that I have though. Are they really flimsy like? This Rachel flops all over.
BTW, there eyes can be changed. There is a MT group on yahoo where you can find out gobs of info on these dolls.
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Melissa,I'm surprised you got them to stand at all, even propped up as they were. They're just so floppy! [img]wink.gif[/img] (Or maybe they're stuffing them better than they were several years ago.)
If you get a chance, can you post a picture of your Rachel. Mine is extra floppy too. I thought something was wrong with her.
Here are some close-ups of re-stuffed/re-wigged/re-freckled Rachel:

They really are adorable--the catalog and website don't do them justice.
