4 - lt skin, black hair, br almond-shape eye REV/RETIRED

I got my #4, Elia, a few months ago from a board member who saw her on a local listing for $20 and asked if I wanted her, since I was already going to pick up more purchases from her anyway. I said yes, of course, and I still can't quite believe that I got her for that price.

Like basically everyone else, AG's stock photos never did much for me, but Inky definitely did. That said, I fell out of AG collecting before she was retired, and when I came back, prices on the secondary market were through the roof; I'm extremely glad I got Elia for the price I did, because in her condition in a BST group or collector board, I'm sure I wouldn't have found her for less than $150.

She came in basically perfect condition. Her ears were pierced at AG; her limbs are slightly loose but she can stand and hold a pose on her own with no problems, so I'm not too worried about that right now. Her hair is full, thick, soft, and uncut. Her face paint is vibrant without being too overpowering.

ETA: Elia definitely has the newer wig with the thinner bangs and a center part, though in pictures it's hard to tell as her hair is BLACK, with no brown whatsoever.
