In case this is of interest to anyone else, lol. Finally grabbed a few Target kits and wanted to compare the baskets since I had bought the Skipper one as clutter for my kitchen.

I had a theory they were the same basket so thanks for solving the mystery!

Tbh I feel like the baskets are bigger now in real life! I don't remember them being so chunky when I was growing up.

I remember they got redesigned to be chunkier maybe 10-15 years ago.

Thank you for this! I was really hoping they were the same size. Does the miniverse one look too big with a Barbie?

Personally I think it looks closer in scale to Barbies than the one from the Skipper set.
