Integrity Toy’s “The Industry” 2017 Revealed
Integrity Toy’s made their first collection reveal to the newly minted 2017 WClub the other day and all I can say is Wow! it’s a doozy! As Dolce and Gabbana and many other designers are going to the so called millennials for inspiration and a new ad campaigns, David Buttry appears to be pulling from the same pool…at least with the fashions and accessories.
Millennials = consisting of individuals born between 1982 and 2004.
There have been a lot of positives and negatives written about Millennials. I will stick with the positive. It has been noted that they grew up in an electronics-filled and increasingly online and socially-networked world. This helps to explain some of the many new and fabulous accessories that come with this collection. Hope you enjoy.
Keep in mind that these offerings are available through Integrity Toys dealers and were announced to the WClub a few days a go. If you want any of these …run don’t walk to try and get these. Some may be sold out already.

Talk about updated hair! This one is an early favorite for many collectors. She comes with sandals and boots and while I love the accessories, I am not loving the dress on this one. It seems way too dowdy for this doll. She needs edgy and hip in my opinion not docile little school girl. The doll though with half flocked and half pink tresses…fabulousness! **note** This doll is articulated at the ankle. The other dolls are not.

These accessories!!! A MUST have. As to the question…”Will Rebecca buy a doll just for the accessories?”. Well…yes she will. I do also like the look of this doll but he is very similar to the Ace McFly doll they produced a couple of conventions ago. I’m still getting him though as the girls and guys in my collection need their makeup artist .
David Buttry and his team did an amazing job with this first full scale ‘The Industry” collection. The accessories alone make this capsule collection worth a look-see. My only complaint is that…there is a WHOLE lot of black going on here. It would be nice to see more color coming in. And also on the subject of black, there was also an absence of it…as in skin tone. I would have liked to have seen an AA model in this lineup. There are, however, a whole lot of mix and match pieces that will be fun to pair with other outfits in my collection and I look forward to being the mini stylist with those and sharing on the blog. I can definitely see my Out of Sight Nadja in many of these outfits.
Again…these dolls are available through Integrity Toys dealers only. Feel free to click on the link to find them.

YES !! Congrats to David and his team for this AMAZING launch for this INDUSTRY group. LOVE the boys and the accessories especially !!
Got to think young and see where doll trends and millennial design tastes are heading 😉
I’m on board !!

Of course you are on board Mr. Style. 😉 Yes, David always impresses me but his ability to move between retro and vintage designs and current is nothing short of amazing. So much fun to see and experience.

Integrity just keeps up-ing their game. I only ordered 3. The pink hair was an easy pass for me, but I didn’t order Tate – which was probably a mistake. Accessories on all are the sh…!

In total agreement on this Bev…except for I DID order Tate. I could not pass that one up..no way no how. They are indeed up-ing their game. {Hugs}

Wow! Love this line! The things that IT has made the in the recent past are really starting to tempt me. The first two girls could easily find a home at my house. 😊
March 4, 2017 at 12:14 pm
Yes!!!! Come join us in the pool Jim!! The water is fine 😉 Seriously though, this kind of aesthetic is so totally what you collect. Let me know if you want me to bring some to NBDCC so you can see them in person { she says as she rubs her hands together…what..am I like a dealer now?}

I didn’t know what to expect but was not disappointed. For me it has to be Tate, he’s so handsome and I’m loving his clothes. He is soooo going to be my Poppy’s boyfriend! I’d love to have bought just some of the accessories without the doll, like the Dollface bag and Tulas tights
March 4, 2017 at 3:14 pm
Yes, yes, yes. Tate is amazing!!! I am in total agreement about all of these accessories. Would love accessory packs. But..from an IT business standpoint it is very smart because they know collectors will buy just for the accessories 😉
March 17, 2017 at 8:04 am
My personal spending account always has some $ reserved for when IT goes “Surprise! New dolls!” and the one I want soon sells out. This time around Tate is the one. What can I say, I like the popular guys! ^^
I’m very much liking the look of this team as a whole–black as the cohesive theme with an accent colour for each. And how IT dolls are dressed in layers so it’s like two different outfits. If clothes/accessories sold separately I’d get Cabot’s too–Those shiny pants!~
Also hoping for an AA figure next time. And dolls with Asian features and darker skin. Love the Liu Liu Ling sculpt, hope to see her again!

You are smart to keep some money in reserve for these surprise dolls. I need to follow that example 😉 I am excited and energized by this new direction IT is taking with it’s contemporary lines. Yes, looking forward to seeing more and more diversity in these lines as well. Good point.
March 17, 2017 at 8:02 am
Would love to begin collecting these…where can I but them???
