July 2023 – I took some photos of the lovely Maria from El Chignon Dolls! She came with hot glue sueding and she is a fabulous poser, but I wish she had flat feet. I didn’t have any shoes that actually fit, but I was able to stick her in some What’s Her Face sandals so that she could stand on her own.
I love Maria’s head as-is, but I wanted to do a quick comparison/hybrid test with Minifee. I think it works quite well! She is about Moe height and the medium tan is very similar to FL tan. The Moe body is from ~2012 and pretty severely yellowed/greened while the blank head is new from late 2022. The neck is thinner than Minifee and but not so thin that it doesn’t work. No clothes-sharing between them, obviously, but I easily fit her into larger MSD boy sized clothes.
