Julia

            The Queen Bee has arrived! Talking Julia from 1971. She came in mint condition, complete with original shoes and stand. She also came with her original box although she had decided to step out of it to go on display with her previous worker bee. She has a little bit of her original wrist tag left too. She no longer talks and her legs came off when I tried to force them from their frozen position but those are things I was expecting when I had bought her. I made her a pair of groovy spanx using instructions and fabric provided by Maria (thanks!). I always wanted a talking Christie from 1971, and I thought I preferred Christie to Julia. But that was before I found out about the 1971 Talking Julia. She has a similar black bubble to Christie and the same dark skin tone that I love. But she has more attitude and more importantly GUNMETAL GREY EYE SHADOW! For some reason I go bananas for gunmetal grey. I like her much more than the earlier editions of Julia (although they are still gorgeous!) and I also prefer her to Christie . And as a bonus, she seems to be cheaper than Christie! Although, not as cheap as the earlier issues of Julia. I am super excited to have her in my collection now and I have already bought her a very special outfit to wear.
