The Tour Doll Collection
The following Dolls were raffled
at various events and shops from
1997 to 2009. Each doll
was outfitted in an existing line costume of
a different color, on a line
doll.
In the cases of Spellbound:
This was a special doll and outfit together.
However, just as she was unique,
AD produced additional Blue outfits which were
given to staff members.
This makes Spellbound in Blue the
most common and least rare of
all the Tour Outfits produced during the AD Years.

AD began remaking convention dolls
in two different colors starting in 1999 with The Birthday
Celebration in Santa Fe Gene wearing
Sunset Celebration in shades of Green. From that point on
there were no more "Tour Dolls"
through Ashton Drake.
In 2007 Integrity brought back the "Tour" Doll
Cherry Crisp was a version of Cocoa
Crisp with a few minor differences. She was limited to 5 dolls

WClub as well as being made available in several
drawings. This was the only Madra Tour Doll made by either
company.

Integrity did other variations of their dolls
using them as convention centerpieces.

Rogue and Silver Rose Gene
One of the rare ones was a lilac eye
version of Zita with long straight hair as "Licorice Threads" (sometimes
known as Licorice Ice)
1/40 in a variation of Gene Slender
Threads.
She did not come with any paperwork from
IT. A COA and name were created for her after the RSVP
event in NYC by Mel personally. Should
you have her and wish a COA you can download it here
Red Parasol was an exclusive from Cherished
Friends to compliment Blue Parasol.
She came
with option black gloves and shawl as well.
IT also offered a one
of a kind Oona in a drawing. It was won
by one of their W Club Collectors
in 2008
prototype Oona doll (for Gold members).
This is Oona in the short hairstyle she was
originally supposed to get before it was decided
to give her the sleek ponytail everyone saw and loved at the convention
-she is also now all dressed up as she previously
had no clothes.
Oona is the Integrity Violet sculpt in white
that was done for the 2008 convention - she's limited to 50 dolls.
In the collection of Holly Goldmann
Fashion Blvd. also did an exclusive tour
outfit for Angelic Dreamz in 2008
Although they were not official Gene events
through the company producing her, Sandra Stillwell offered
several centerpiece and helper doll variations
as well through her events.
