    @BoudiccaJones :kiss:I think I found something good in my doll stash!
    Do you know anything about these please? Are there ‘editions’ or is she datable other than 70s?
    She is in pretty good condition with all her fingers and no extra makeup!
    Thankyou for looking :)

    Well done K,she's lovely xxx
    There are two different types of bodies, one **edit!** I originally said strung,should have said active…I am not sure if some or all are strung,now I’ve thought about it,but some have active wrists and some don’t . Yours looks to be the less articulated body ( but hard to see with clothes on, so I could be wrong?)
    She's in excellent condition isn't she! Does she have any melt?

    No,there's no way of dating these, other than 70s as you say, that I know of.
    The body difference may be relevant but I don't know anyone who knows. (There are more with the articulated body than not according to Daisy collectors but I've personally not found this. )
    I don't think it makes much difference about the body type when it comes to *value* as these always sell well. The one with articulation is a little more desirable but not enough to impact on the price. These ALWAYS sell well and she has her original boots. (and jumpsuit)

    Do you have any of her guns/holsters?

    Havoc is a gorgeous dolly, always lovely to see her xxx
    Edited to hopefully make sense and add that,actually,
    I need to dig mine out…they may all be strung but some have more articulation than others. Some have active hands and some don’t,don’t want to give you false info! None of mine have the articulation but can’t remember if they are strung or not and only goddess knows where mine actually are xx

    … and always really good to still have the sticker, looks in great condition too. They usually are crinkly if lucky enough to be present at all xxx

    Thankyou Bou, great info as always :)
    I don’t know if she is strung as I haven’t undressed her. I will have a peek later when I have fed the kids. No melt that I can see unless it’s hidden under the jump suit.
    Great link that Fig, Thankyou. Those outfits are fantastic, she is a classy bird!

    The melt, if any, will be by her hips and top of legs and maybe arms…I’d take her jumpsuit off very carefully just in case, because melt often sticks to the material. It can rip and will get stuck in the melt on her bod. She doesn’t look very melty but the lesser played with ones get it the worst and she’s in lovely condition so worth keeping in mind. I use talc if I suspect melt and I go slowly xx

    Found an ancient pic of three of mine, just in case anyone wanted to see 'em. Got another somewhere with original hair. (I think )
    I have no idea where they all are, but now am pretty sure Havoc is always strung,looking at these pics
    (The blue one's rerooted obvs xx)

    Can see the melt around the hips/top of legs on the Nudey
