Dynamite Girls

The DG line was completely renewed on 2010 with new head sculpts, skin tones and leg sculpt.The height difference is smaller between the new DGs and NF/FR dolls as the new legs are longer and have the same knee joints as NF/FR dolls.

 
 The new DGs also have new skin tones, such as the delicious caramel tone on the convention Jett and VV Sooki. Here is the caramel tone compared to regular tanned tone (the comparison doll is NF Colette head in a old DG tanned body). The caramel colour is a little lighter then tan but darker than caucasian tone and has a wonderful translucent quality to it.

Note: The skin tone listing below is for the old DG line and are not necessarily true for the 2010 renewed line starting from the Vintage Vinyl line!

Model Behaviour / Nu.Face

Listing skin tones from pale to dark.
From left to right: MB1, MB2, MB3 and MB4.
Note that the FR1 example doll has some body blushing
so you get the best comparison by looking at their legs!

MB1 - Japan

Dolls as exception: None
Body donors: FR2 (Veronique), DG2

NOTE: To mix things up the 2009 collection tanned The Making of...Erin S. actually has the latina skin tone (FR3) and is a perfect match for any Natalia and Bueno Sera Kyori.

From left to right:
Old Natalia, new Natalia, Making of Erin S. and Colette.

 As you can see there is a tiny difference between the old and the new latina skin tones. 

The Making of Erin S. features the new latina skin tone 

even though the matt finish of the MB/NU body confuses the tones a bit.

This is one of the reasons I prefer the MB/NU body, 

I really hate glossy finish on my dolls and all FRs have it.

MB3 – Tan aka Cashmere
Description: Regular tanned skin tone with a golden hue, FR4
Dolls by default: Colette

Body donors: FR4, MZ3
NOTE: All the tan skin tone bodies have the same defect: the hands start to turn light yellow in time. This is known to happen to NRFB dolls as well, so light of heat seems to have nothing to do with it.

Finally, after years of waiting,

the Iconic convention of 2009

launched a MB/NU Face girl

with the same skin tone as Adele:

Dominique!

Note!  In order to follow the light to dark linearity I renamed the old MB4 aka Ebony (Nadja) as MB5 and this new Adele skin tone will take its place as MB4.
