New dolly yesterday. Tarzhey has all the LOTR toys on sale, so I got 12" Arrowroot, son of Arrowshirt Aragorn. Not much resemblance to the Viggo, but he looks like Gorno always did in my head, so I'm pleased. Arwen-from-two-years-ago is also pleased, 'cause she can finally get some.

Except he's got black velveteen trousers. At first I thought they'd flocked the poor bastard. His legs feel like a 1960s Christmas ornament, but without any rickrack.

You could always *add* the rickrack. ;-)

Most of the LOTR toys scare the beejezus out of me. I'm so happy the Mattel A&A set is so purty.

The Barbie set can live at your house. It makes me want to fwow up.

The Barbie set does live in my house. In fact, I have too many of them right now... my problem with most of the action figures is that the scultping is SCARY!

I read that as "Arrowroot, son of Arrowshit."

I went back and checked to make sure I did not, in fact, type that.

Flocking. The process of applying 'hair' to plastic to simulate fur or hair. Terrifying demo animation here:

That's wrong. :(

Wennykebobbers thinks plastic hair is much sexier.
