Fashion Doll Friday: Mattel Octopussy 2010

Today’s Friday Girl is a rerun due to lack of time and poor lighting conditions for doll photography today. She is Octopussy from the James Bond film of the same name played by actress Maud Adams.

Angelica, or Angie as we usually call her was first featured back in 2013 and again in December of 2016 when she appeared with her friend Tyrone, Naomi’s Twilight Jasper. I will try to take some new photos of Angie in the near future as I think she is very striking.

I was born in England in 1957 and lived there until our family came to Australia in 1966. I grew up in Adelaide, South Australia, where I met and married my husband, David. We came together over a mutual love of trains. Both of us worked for the railways for many years, his job was with Australian National Railways, while I spent 12 years working for the STA, later TransAdelaide the Adelaide city transit system. After leaving that job I worked in hospitality until 2008. We moved to Tasmania in 2002 to live in the beautiful Huon Valley. In 2015 David became ill and passed away in October of that year. I currently co-write two blogs on WordPress.com with my sister Naomi. Our doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", and "Our Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania. In November 2019 I began a new life in the house that Naomi and I intend to make our retirement home at Sisters Beach in Tasmania's northwest. Currently we have five pets between us. Naomi's two dogs Toby and Teddy and cats, Tigerwoods and Panther and my cat Polly. My dog Cindy passed away aged 16 in April 2022.

  1. Angelica is a very beautiful, striking doll and looks great in the other outfits as well. She has attitude! I remember seeing the film (many) years ago. She is a good likeness to Maud Adams. (Not all dolls of real people look much like who they are meant to be.)

  4. She is still one I seek on my wish-list. She has always looked like what I think not only a first lady or modern royal should look but a female president as well. A certain public personality with class. Love to see her in suits and designer or celebrity red carpet..I wouldn’t limit her to a scene w/ a Roger Moore bond but pair her w/ any/all Bonds as she is timeless. Love this lovely doll!
