Earlier this year, one of our beloved doll dealers retired. It was very sad to see Mary T's go, and I wish her well in future endeavors. Unfortunately, when she closed her shop, there was a really big sale. This is how I acquired Dynamite Girl (Boy) Cruz without having to pay secondary mark-up prices.
Here is his promotional photo from Integrity:
He sort of looks like he belongs with Dan Aykroyd and Jane Curtain's SNL Conehead skits. You may remember this:
When my guy arrived, he didn't really have much of a cone. They had cut the hair straight across. It was an improvement, but it was still rather high. I tried to use some BedHead Manipulator and make a faux hawk. This is my result:
I still wasn't satisfied. His box went into the closet for me to come to a conclusion about what I was going to do. I don't own many male dolls (hommes), and the Dynamite Guys are a good price. I decided to get out the boiling water, some paper towels, rubber bands, and Got 2 B Glued.
I feel like my fella went from 1970's comedy to modern day American Idol. What do you think?
For now, I think I'm going to leave him this way. He's out of the box and ready to "tool the block"!
