eBay weekend haul (No. 235 and 3/4) - pt 1

 It was one of those weekend....when I know I shouldn't but I still go for it...

After being mindlessly tired on Friday night - the only thing that soothes and pleases me is the late night eBay scrolling... 'sadly' I always manage to find an 'occasion'... Needless to say my proxy bidding and theory that people are out out, away from computer works....

Late April 2024, yet again, I ended up with 3 won auctions...

- Heart Family / Mattel toddlers lot...

- and my oh my more Superstars as one looked particularly photogenic...



Very comfy little box - definitely from 90s as I have same container from my very childhood. 
Curious - I'm locked in.


Yes! beautiful chaos!
Definitely somebody's baby-box


Gosh, yes - these bring so many memories....
(continues to dig internetz for Heart family archives)



Happy!


My two rascals is teh very Heart Family Boy and from cousins or friends line (freckels!)




I though it through - think they are both from the Sunshine Fun Pals set!




Bonus - proper mini bebe!

The sencond box ....




mmm, the promise.


No thank you....


Pet loving Teresa no 2....she stays...I will come up with the make-over, promise



Yes, great later-Teresa face....


...and came in vintage skirt.


Bye bye but thanks for the (retired) dress


...Benetton Barbie - someone will be pleased (steals earrings)


...very vintage sleeping gown...


<3


...and here she is = a very Barbie looking Barbie - I couldn't stop my curiosity...
apparently my doll No. 235


hot pink studs


bold spot - suggesting a hat


#stereotypicalBarbiegalore


T...I got stuck but thanks to the London doll group I now know she is Western/ cowboy-style



LOL
Good night

Ballerina! - No. 234

Whilst in Poland with Lucy i mindlessly browsed ebay in cold, during one of the last playground visits with my kids, now that i think about it...

I noticed an unusually natural Mackie barbie in some otherwise messy auction and  consulted with my dollmeet chat...within minutes I got a reply - Ballet Wishes 2015....sounded like an  approval to me LOL

A bit tired and definitely played with...

Equipped with most unusual body...

...but a very photogenic minimalistic classic beauty

She completely skipped her queue as I couldn't wait...

Please see below two session:
fashionably black in London and 
adorably pastel in garden spring session...



Well-travelled ballerina  and a museum goer, that is!

Oh, she's such a fair lady...first time in the sun, me thinks...



Grace and Beauty - just as Peppa said...


Tricky to pose the ballet body but at least the broken crown has it's moment...

...oh I have so many ideas for her...
