Wow, I think I might’ve had one of those deer girls way back when. They seem vaguely familiar. I had a crap-ton of the mermaids, though! They hung out with my sea ponies.

Ahh, so she could be a newer addition to the family.

I tried linking one of my adopted click pets here, but the board wouldn't let me. :/

Mysterious strawberry shaped car made in Korea https://littlewalken.tumblr.com/post/66 ... to-put-all

This I definitely need pictures of so we can see what pieces in the hoard belong in it.

Looks like she could be a Ginny clone.

Ginny was really popular, but honestly, now that I think about it, some of the clones seem cuter.

This doll came from the thrift store, is stamped 1965, feels hollow but not "cheap".

*I know who she is now but I want to give y'all a chance to play name that doll. Turns out she's quite the find.

I cannot guess the name, lol. But I wonder why there are two lines of stitching on the back of her head - one with empty holes and one with the hair, the latter is spaced wider.

It looks like the unused holes might be a hairline that was molded or stamped on to her to act like a guide. I've seen it in some other dolls.

She is an early version of a 70s doll that was an exclusive import from Europe for a department store. They had different natural hair colors and some had tan skin. And her eyes sleep.
