Sent Groovy Groove away
Speaking of “new”, I am having one of my Blythe girls customized.
Last summer I acquired a Groovy Groove Blythe for the purposes of getting her customized. I already had in mind that I wanted a custom Blythe to resemble Leeloo played by the beautiful Milla Jovovich from the movie, The Fifth Element. GG was in good condition and came with most of her clothes (no coat) and her alien friend. I thought she would be perfect for a custom Leeloo Blythe. I placed myself on a wait list for Blythe Rescue Mission to perform the customization. Megan does wonderful work. Check out her website. She also worked on the McQ Market campaign for Target with Gina Garan.
The wait wasn’t bad at all. Megan was very good about sending updates of who was next and where you were in the line. In fact, I had forgotten that I had signed up until I received an email from her telling me my number. Before I knew it my ticket was called. I mailed GG today to BRM. I look forward to the process and receiving my “new” Blythe.

that's GG before she gets wrapped up, boxed, and taped up.
