Seeing as now Liv Dolls have been discontinued and I'm reduced to buying them from the internet, it's very helpful to which Liv Dolls have the great articulation and which to avoid. Sometimes it's very hard to see all the joints in those seller pics. What a shame Spin Master decided to take such a dip in quality.

A total bummer if you ask me; I'm so glad you popped up this review. LIV are getting scarce in my area and I was debating snagging one of the Brites if I could ever find one, but that lacking articulation defeats the purpose of a Liv, dangit!

I often wish I had a time machine to do just that. I actually prefer less articulated fashion dolls. The arms and legs look nicer. Joints bother me, but that is because I grew up in the 70s. If I am only using the doll to wear outfits and take photos of that doll, I don't need the doll to Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726715699839627686.post-14313307217670732872012-10-28T16:43:05.565-04:002012-10-28T16:43:05.565-04:00I LOVE YOUR BLOG!!

She plays with a few now, but we know how much she'll appreciate the articulation and swapping of hair later. Plus, Dad and I like that the dolls are more modestly dress compared to Bratz dolls (will never buy one of those lol).

However, I know a lot of people really like them so I was sad to hear that apparently they're being discontinued. That WOULD explain the newer, less-articulated bodies.

That's a good idea. <br /><br />I am wondering if the look of the spa dolls post-refrigerator is even better than with the cold water--more evenly colored, maybe? Longer lasting? Probably depends on how long you leave the doll in the deep freeze. ;) I need to try that now!

I was particularly interested to read your opinion of the new Liv for Color line, as I have not seen a lot of positive comments about it. My second oldest daughter purchased Katie yesterday afternoon, so when she had gotten her out of the box, I took a closer look at the doll.

Thanks for the great review. I was at Target tonight and saw the Liv for Color and Color Brites dolls, and I didn't even notice the lack of articulation which, as you mention, is a real loss. I have had such fun getting to pose the Liv gals and learn their abilities.
