I spent the day at the flea market with my friend Lori. I got some good stuff. Some of it you'll see in upcoming posts. But today is Shrunken Saturday. We're going to take a look at some dolls I got a few weeks ago. They're The Quints.
 |
| As you can see from the polka dot foot stool on the left, I got these guys the same week,and from the same lady, as the lawn furniture I showed you HERE. |
They were made by Tyco.
 |
| There are three girls and two guys in this batch. Not all bunches of Quints were the same. |
 |
| The have moveable arms, legs, and heads,and removable clothes and shoes. |
The Quints were first produced in 1989, and carried on through the early 90's.
There were quite a few sets of dolls, and sets of furniture and accessories.
 |
| Their blankets are all connected. |
 |
| These connected rattles can be held in their hands. the rattles, connected blankets,and rocking chair are from a set called Rocking Chair for 5. There should also be 5 pairs of slippers. |
You can see 1991 commercials for the Quints
HERE and
HERE.
 |
| Obviously the lady had the birthday set too. |
There were also larger dolls that were the Quints cousins and baby sitters. You can see that commercial
HERE.
See you tomorrow when I'll show you a flea market find.
I LOVED these when I was little!
ReplyDeleteThey are cute little guys. I probably would have loved these when I was a kid.
DeleteOh! Yesterday was Francis and today the Quints! It's like reliving my childhood on your blog at the moment!
ReplyDeleteI hope you're enjoying the trip through your childhood! You must be about Emma's age. She was born in 1991.
DeleteIt looks like the Quints always came in 3 girls, 2 boys. The difference was just hair color. Might have been hair style too. I wanted some of these because I missed out on them, but looking at their clothes, for the most part the outfits are not as neat as I thought. They use a lot of trickery to make them look cute, but not really sturdy. I would not turn them down at a Yard Sale or Goodwill, but I won't be lurking on Ebay. lol
ReplyDeleteGood thing you found this stuff out before spending too much on them. These guys came from a yard sale. I bought them from the lady who had had them as a kid. That's something ironic, considering how badly you want to get your toys back.
