It seems to be a hit-and-miss with some of them. I've been looking at pictures of these girls on flickr for a while (I've not heard of them arriving in the UK yet but I'm due a visit to TRU soon, so.). Anyway, meet Cyanne from the "Runway Vacay" line, who I bought for $19.99 online at Toys R Us: I will try very hard to step away from my disappointment about Liv's discontinuation and cast a fair eye on these new kids, but you should keep in mind that I probably have a pretty big chip on my shoulder. Given the company's track record, I feel pretty sure that the La Dee Da dolls will be trendy, at least for a little while.īecause it seems like the La Dee Da line is being rolled out to take the place of the faltering Liv dolls, it is hard for me to evaluate these new dolls without directly comparing them to Liv.and Liv dolls are the sole reason I became interested in play dolls as an adult. Spin Master is also, of course, the company that introduced us to the innovative and highly articulated Liv dolls in 2009, and then recently announced the discontinuation of that beloved line. Bakugan toys, Tech Deck mini skate boards, the adorable Zoobles-these have all been highly sought after and impossible to find at times. Spin Master has a knack for manufacturing trendy products. Perhaps it's just meant to be an upbeat, sing-songy name in keeping with the cheery appearance of the dolls. The name of the line confuses me, though, because although it's catchy, don't people usually say, "well, la dee da" when they're being mocking and dismissive? Sometimes even "la dee frickin' da?" Are these dolls dissing me from inside the box? Presumably not. They are called "La Dee Da" dolls, named after Dee, who is the fashion-forward leader of the pack. These girls have been causing a stir since they were displayed at the Toy Fair in New York last February. Well, I got my hands on a few of the newest dolls from Spin Master.
