Hi Chickas!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well this is random but I was wondering if any of you have a Tonner doll? I have two which where both given to me as presents this past year from my neighbor who has been collecting dolls for probaly about 30-40 years. Both of mine are retired and she got them free from Doll Convention. The first one I got for my confirmation and it is Roxanne from the movie/musical "Chicago" and the other I just got for my birthday. She is Marley Wentworth of the Tyler Wenthworth collection [Marley is Tyler's little sister].
If you don't know what the Tonner dolls are, here's a little bit about their creator, Robert Tonner....
Robert Tonner is best known for his fashion doll designs and the creation of the Tonner Doll Company, Inc., which designs a number of original doll lines, such as the Tyler Wentworth and Antoinette series. In addition, Tonner Doll Company Inc. contracts with and designs for many major film studios. They have designed dolls for such contemporary films as Harry Potter, Spider-Man 3, and Twilight, as well as classic films, such as Gone with the Wind and The Wizard of Oz.
Robert Tonner has received national and international artistic awards and recognition including a permanent piece at The Louvre Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris. He has also served as President of the National Institute of American Doll Artist (NIADA).
His dolls are very expensive and you would think they are meant to be stored in a glass case, but really they are meant for play. They are wonderful quality and my wishlist keeps growing.
