Hi Marina, I have Lena, and I highly recommend her! I don't know if my Lena (who I have renamed Olivia) was produced before, in the same year as or after your Nellie (though the fact that she came with a cat does mean she was produced before 2015), but I personally love her colouring - rosy without being too pink, and the hair and dark brown eyes are even more beautiful than they are in the pictures!Plus she's easy to dress, which, considering that I got her because I like making doll clothes, is a definite plus - every colour I have tried so far looks fabulous on her! :)

I'd have liked the color to be less ashen too! I've got the julika doll and she's do gorgeous but the color of the vinyl could be a little more pinkish.

The new dolls are amazing, especially the outfits, but the face colour is a problem. I bought dark haired Princess in Pink last year and nearly sent it back when I saw the colour of her face. It was greenish grey. It is especially noticeable against rosy complexion of Gotz Happy Kidz Sophie we have. Sadly Princess in Pink looks green even against Zwergnase and Kathe Kruse dolls. Despite all this my daughter loves Princess in Pink more than all other dolls and we have quite a few. She calls her Nellie after one of her girlfriends who is French. She is now asking for Rosie and Lena and declined suggestions about new Gotz dolls and 2016 Kidzncats. Given the price it’s unlikely I’ll buy both but I might try and get either Rosie or Lena on a special offer somewhere. Whatever the face colour might be!

LOL I can but try Maxine! ;)And you're welcome on the comments. I always like to comment on blogs I follow because it can feel a very lonely place when no-one comments :)xx

Hi Blue, thanks very much for your comment. Mini Fredy for Bobo? Or is that just plain sexist?! I have my eyes on your Helen if you are downsizing :-) The vinyl colour...again...All I know is that the new dolls will have a different vinyl colour - but that would be normal with each run of dolls anyway. Likely to be month of May before we see the 2016 dolls and their new colour.

Hi Anne, thanks very much for your comment. I'm looking forward to getting to see the dolls in person...taking some photos and asking sooo many questions! I've missed a riding outfit from them since outfit Tina was retired. It's a really popular type of play outfit - that and ballet. I wonder if they'll get more involved in play accessories now they're part of Hape...dot dot dot

mini Fredy will be mine as soon as he's available. And its good to know I'm not the only one disliking the vinyl colour - that's why I no longer buy KnC dolls, sadly

Like Rianne above, Alice is my favourite of the new dolls, combination of hair and eye colour, the fringe, and the face mould. I love all the girls outfits, and thrilled to see that K and C are introducing a riding outfit. I don't have room for more dolls but the riding outfit is definitely on my 'to buy' list.

Hi Susan, thank you very much for your comment. Alice I love too - her clothes are so pretty and strong at the same time. The skin colour is a preference thing - and I've answered a comment above about this - it matches' Sonja's skin tone and that seems as sensible a way as any for an artist to pick a vinyl colour. There will be some difference in the vinyl of the 2016 dolls so hoping you love the whole package!

I love Alice, both her clothes and face. My two dolls have the odd color vinyl but it doesn't bother me as much as it does others.
