News Bites: Rockers repros, Deluxe Style and reminders

Posted by Bethany in PA on 3/6/2026, 4:38 pm

Coming to us from Strange Doll, here are the new Rockers repros. The repro Diva doll is rumored to be an Amazon exclusive. These should release sometime in March.

Also from Strange Doll, the next round of Deluxe Style dolls:

As for the new round of Looks neutrals, they are popping up all over Europe and at the Mattel store in California. Here's hoping they release here soon, along with the Barbie Style Milan doll. I really like her outfit and would probably buy her just for that.

Also, if you're attending GAW or the NBDCC, there are several deadlines coming up fast so check your reg books!

I'll be attending GAW but just as a regular conventioneer since I'm already overbooked for both NDBCC in July and Kenvention in October.

Again, if you're at GAW, please try to find me! I'd love to meet some more Pinkers. I'm in the anti-scurvy charcuterie board class but will otherwise be room shopping and dressed as a pirate at both meal functions! I'll also be hanging out with Margie (as long as she can put up with me that long!) and hope to do Sunday breakfast before I head back to PA since I'm driving.

If you're going to NBDCC, I'm arriving Sunday and also arriving Sunday for Kenvention since I'm A/V chair. Kenvention is in Chicago (Rosemont area) AND will have great room shopping and a sales room if you're in the area! Or within driving distance!

If you're attending either of those, please drop me a line or post on the board as we get closer! I love meeting our board members in person. Chicago in 2022 when we had a lobby meet up seems so long ago!

If time allows (my fall is crazy) I will try to attend the Central Penn Doll Show in Lebanon in September and maybe the Eastern National Doll Show in Gaithersburg, MD, in December of this year.

Thanks Bethany!

I will be room selling beginning Wednesday at GAW. And of course at the Queen City show 4/18.

I always attend the Central Penn Doll Show in Lebanon. My husband and I spend a long weekend in Hummelstown near Hershey. A beautiful area in PA.
