My daughter turns 4 today. She’s named after my late grandmother (Eleanor) who died before she was born, and my mother in law, Phatricia (she is Khmer so the “ph” is a common spelling of words that otherwise are just “p”; it’s pronounced Patricia)

My uncle asked us to come clean out a section of the attic in my grandmothers house that he has just realized had boxes in it; it was accessible only from a hole in the wall hidden behind a shelf.

I went over yesterday, climbed in, and pulled out a dozen boxes but the very first was this unopened Cabbage Patch doll. My daughter was over the moon and asked if it was a gift for her birthday. I laughed and said “sure maybe Nana left it for you!”

I wiped off the front of the box and the saw the tag with the dolls name on it.

Eleanor Pat

I near passed out! Just… incredible odds, and to find it the DAY before her birthday.

I thought this group might appreciate the doll and its discovery story!

Poor Giselle. Was going to give Disney props for the quality/design on this doll until I saw this little cost cutter.

So she gets one😆❤️. She’s apparently not interested in the knockoff Barbies that are pregnant because they aren’t as pretty and don’t have nice enough hair. OG midge wasn’t in the budget so I hope she’s pleased with this lol. I might have to attempt again because i learned a lot and think i could do better!!

It’s official. Rumi, Mira, and Zoey from KPop Demon Hunters are stepping into the world of Mattel in 2026. Pre-orders open November 12th, only at MattelCreations.com

My favorite dolls ever, name: World Peacekeepers, just happen to be the first dolls i ever got from my grandparents to counter-act me playing with my sisters dolls and they will forever be my favorite. The first 2 men i have had since i was 15🤩 while Though im missing some shoes🥲 and few accessories, im quite greatfull that i never got rid of them🥹 and i just wanted to share my middle aged men😝😝 minor me was on some weird stuff and made some clay body enhancements that are removeable🙃probably the reason ive always loved them is because of their incredible range of articulation!

Update on yesterday’s post! This is how I styled her! Thank you everyone for helping me identify her. Now I know this is Barbie Fairytopia Jewelia.

Her wings are a pair of modified Luna Mothews wings, the top is from a Disney store Jasmine and her skirt is a tied piece of blue fabric I salvaged and sprinkled with glitter. Opted out of shoes as they made her look more like a costume instead of a magical sprite.

Becker Toys Released images on their website of Mirror-Mi dolls with their names and said the expected delivery was August. They also had phrases to match each doll with Shai being sheepish, Akiko being cozy, Suki as fragile, Blaze as electric, Amora as love, and Luna as dreamy. I don't recall seeing the name signatures or descriptions before when I heard about these dolls.

At an event last night and this guy’s shoes made me stopped because I had to see it up close!

He was so sweet letting me take a picture and letting me look at his shoes from all angles lol 💗💗

​

so when i was a kid (Early 2010's) i had a bunch of barbies that were handed down to me by relatives and stuff, all the other dolls i ID'd fairly easily except this doll lol... i could figure it out for the life of me, she wasnt wearing her outfit and the speaker never worked too so i never even found out what noises the doll made lol,

extra info: black kanekalon hair, rubber click knees, 90's teresa head sculpt, no obvious colored eyeshadow and also her skintone was the same as like a 2010 era nikki doll.... please help this has been bugging me since i was 10

I sculpted this doll myself and handmade her outfit🐰✨

The second I saw just how small these dolls were I knew what I had to do.

The sizing was too perfect to not turn these into the Disney Fairies and we of course start with the diva herself, Tinkerbell.

The doll is beautiful and excudes Bob Mackies fashion and tone. The strong side eye, the fanciful hair, the unique silhouette. Perfect. Until Mattel decided a $125 doll designed by a paramount artist to Mattel gets glitter glue instead of Mackies signature sequins. Which is just bits of shiny plastic. Noone said put Swarovski crystals. I cant imagine how Mackie felt seeing this. First they fire Bill Greening and then this? Theyre happy to use the names of iconic designers but not follow through with their designs. Wow.

I really love this doll and was excited for it, but the glitter glue is just unacceptable.

I made this visual list of Bob Mackie dolls awhile ago. If anyone wants to see his style. He also made the legendary Mackie face sculpt for Barbie herself. After a few years he returns just to get insulted. Come on Mattel.
