Integrity Toys is stepping back in time - to my time - in a new partnership with Archie Comics.
Katy Keene!
When I was a little girl, my aunt and I used to draw and make clothes for our Katy Keene cut out dolls. These are very fond memories.
The question is...would I buy dolls based on these dear memories? Integrity's announcement says,
"the new Katy Keene collector doll line promises to bring something exciting for all of her fans, old and new alike."Well I'm old and I was a fan. This is going to be really interesting.
It would be cool if Katy's fashions were vintage as she began in the 1950's, kind of like Gene Marshall. Will she have a body like the women of that day had?
That includes breasts, hips, thighs, arms with some meat on them. Or will she be a stick figure?
There was no mention in the preview announcement as to whether or not she will be 12" or 16". I know a lot of collectors who would love her to be produced in 16".
Are you not familiar with Katy Keene? I'm going to guess there are many who collect FR dolls who aren't.

As discovered by Daim Choc on 2005, new photos of Mega Steel's MS-01 Granville have appeared on Weibo! The figure is a dead ringer for Don Figueroa's design for Megatron as seen in IDW's Stormbringer series, and is a not-unreasonable match for More Than Meets The Eye Megatron if the Combiner Wars Leader class figure isn't doing it for you. Keep reading to see!
