Doll-A-Day 2019 #194 Maddie Mod-Like Skipper competitor

  I just want to remind everybody that I am adding new stuff to the sales page all the time. And somebody scoop up those Mini Brands. Ken is keeping another bunch of them in the car,which he won't let me have until I make back some money on the last batch's spares!
  Also, don't forget to visit and 'like' the Facebook page. I have posted a few interesting doll related stories with some great photos. You can find both the Facebook link and the sales page in the right hand side bar.
  Today's doll is a mystery girl.


She's obviously a Skipper competitor,but I don't know her name. 


She has the same face as Maddie Mod or Betsy Teen,only she's smaller.





Was Maddie Mod's head too small for her body? Because this head obviously fit a Skipper sized body.



She's 9 inches tall, like vintage Skipper. 


She's only marked 'made in Hong Kong'.


She has very Skipper like-hands.
That's a nasty mold line.
But her feet aren't quite as Skippery.

As you can see, she's made of a cheap plastic.
 Although her body is thin plastic, her head is rubber.




The outfit isn't original to her. It's a Shibajuku outfit I bought when they clearance them out. I love sailor outfits. It's a little short, but fits her pretty well.
 


Her hair is thinly rooted,and the one side wants to stand up.






Her hair is long though.

As you can see, it's unevenly cut. It looks to be original though.
If anybody has any idea who she is, please let me know.



That's today's doll. Come back tomorrow and see what I come up with.

  1. I don't know who she is. In profile, she appears to be smiling. I like the outfit.

  2. at first i thought she reminded me of my 9" happily ever after penny brite except for the face paint..because of the big cheeks and similar eye brows but the hair is quite different too.plus it was marked china.i will check charisma brands to see if there is one closer to yours.

    1. Now that you mention it,there is a resemblance to Penny Brite. It must be the dimples! But the Charisma dolls are modern, and this is definitely an older doll. Also the face is a direct copy of the 60's/early 70's Maddie mod dolls. Thanks for your input though.

  3. I have no idea who she is as I've not seen a doll like her before, but hope you're successful in finding out more information.
    I like the little sailor outfit, I love anything nautical :)

    1. Me too. Sailor suits of any kind. I used to out sailor dresses on the girls when they were little, and Fuzzy's favourite childhood outfit is a little red flannel sailor suit he used to wear.It was also one of my favourites.

  4. What you have there is likely a head of Maddie Mod that has been swapped to a smaller Skipper Clone Body.

  5. I like her face, but her hair needs help.

    1. I don't think anything can help that hair.
