davidd's A DOLL A DAY 2026

[davidd]

I have 2 or 3 minis who say, "Meh, we did it without snow." 

Two of the Smart Dolls, Triv and Janie, have face-planted from porches and decks a number of times. The bigger they are etcetera etcetera.

Bratz Action Heroez: Roxxi, Phoebe, Yasmin, and Cloë

[Alliecat]

Always scary when anybody face-plants on a hard surface.
This is a colourful bunch – and nice ex.posure in the snow.

... and nice ex.posure in the snow.

The eksposure required some post-production tweaking.

Ha. It usually does.
I’m waiting to see how many of these you end up with all in a row!

Well... only five were released in the series. That said... stay tuned!

The big Barbie appears to be a mannequin dressed to look like the Barbie Movie main character.

94 cents???!
One wonders how they could possibly make any money with that.
Then you look at Groove putting out $300 Pullips with probably worse plastic...

94 cents???!

I didn't even look to see what was for sale on that end cap. The ninety-four cents is not the price of a Barbie doll.

Outer Space Adventurer 1/6-Scale Action Figure

Circa 1986 Barbie Astronaut costume and various 1/6-scale action figure parts and accessories

[Alliecat]

Oh, OK. Thought that was a Barbie shelf, under the big Barbie. Looks like colourful toy packaging.

Very atmospheric.... when does the alien pop out??

[davidd]

Oh, OK.  Thought that was a Barbie shelf, under the big Barbie.  Looks like colourful toy packaging.

I learned that the 94¢ price was for plastic sand castle molds. Walmart is gearing up for summer at the beach... even though there's snow on the ground, the nights drop below freezing, and we're 800 miles from the ocean.

Bratz Action Heroez Yasmin with Mini Yasmin vinyl figure

.

The Action Heroez line included mini vinyl figures with the full-size dolls.

I feel guilty about the quick mobile phone snapshots and the unkempt appearance of the dolls. The last couple of days have completely run away from me. I'm not entirely sure why. There were so many things I'd hoped, planned on, or intended to do that didn't get done. I don't know where the hours went. Wherever they went, I wasn't with them.

[Alliecat]

That sounds like me every day

I love Phoebe’s hair colour, and mini Yasmin’s face is really cute.

[davidd]

I love Phoebe’s hair colour....

Oopsie! . I typed the wrong name. The one wearing blue is Cloë, not Phoebe.

Here's Phoebe (for real this time):

They all have fun colour combinations.

They all have fun colour combinations.

I thought they were fun designs back in the day.
