As I mentioned in the afore-linked blog post about my collection of Cocker Spaniels that I don't actually collect, I bought a Hagen-Renaker DW Honey Girl a while ago because I was entranced by the lovely examples and variations thereof owned by my friend Kristina. I chose my Honey Girl for her incredibly crisp detail and beautiful coloring, but I had hoped to find one that had character eyes and a sticker as well. I said as much in my blog, and look what turned up on eBay?
The new Honey Girl is not as crisp as her sister, but she's lovely all the same, and it's interesting to observe the differences in color, shading, and crispness between the two. (Click the pictures for a larger view.)

I hear you - there are a lot of things I don't collect, either, but somehow have begun accumulating on my shelves and in my cabinets. Your Honey Girls are both beautiful! And fingers crossed that you find that mini Cocker Spaniel with Newspaper.
