I expect you are surprised to see her surface again:)

When you think she is 9 years old she is in remarkable condition.

That's the trouble with doll's, initially people are all over them ,then they cool off until eventually interest is lost.
They then end up getting stored, sometimes carelessly, going to the tip or getting sold on.

Always wanted an AD but at the time did not have the usable finance, then Oleg passed away so an adopted doll was the only option.

I must say when I said I wanted one on the forum I was very surprised after waiting 2 years to be offered this one.
I do not think many escaped Russia.

I seem to collect these dolls, I enjoy Borisa's presence and she is going to be a great photo model.
And as everyone seems to think in the history of dolls she is a collectors piece.

And a question if you would not mind ,I'm unsure if she is a body #1 or the later body#3 ?

I seem to remember reading that Oleg made a new model which he named a #1M which took over the # 1 spot.

And as anaside ,if you ever hear of a 1M model for sale do please let me know ....:)

Sure will Rentell. So glad she is now with someone who will not neglect her.
It took me about 4 months to get her from Oleg but eventually she arrived with no problems and held on to her for around six years.
I also used her crate as a storage cupboard built into the wall, i'll post some pics showing this.....

Gotta be bleach m8...domestos

Thanks PinkLady for the photos ,before buying this doll i went through nearly all the posts on AD's if could find.
Not that many around sadly, she is a great doll.

OK darkangel65, thats the next thing to try enmass.
I have tried bleach cautiously in one spot so we will see what happens.:)

She appears to have had quite a reception committtee


B est wishes

Harem

Very photogenic doll

Did anyone else that from some angles she looks like Servalan?

Bit late.....:o...thanks HL, have too many dolls again !

Indeed she is 1stCameraMan, a very lifelike model.

My bad, never caught the series GotDolls, perhaps its the cropped hair that makes her look like Jacqueline Pearce from some angles.

Mold
 

Hi rentals how did you get on with mold?

Hi Dark

Sadly real life and not being very well has precluded any further work on her, but hopefully will tackle it again soon.

My DS 167 has also had this problem even though washed and powdered before being stored and she had some mold forming
Tried the bleach on her and it worked so here's hoping it will do the Biz on the AD

Thanks For asking :tu
