Celebrity and Sports Dolls

I've been updating my Instagram account more often than this blog, but I never forget about this place. I still think of things to write about or do, but lately I've been feeling demotivated again. I have to work on that!

Anyway...


I found a Raven Symone doll! It's from The Cheetah Girls and Raven played the character Galleria. I know nothing about the show, haha. I'm just glad that I finally have Raven. I got her cheap online and made a friend in the process. 


This is Aqua from The Cheetah Girls, but I really don't know the actress who played her. I got her with her original top, but not the pants because her pants were too expensive for me. And I figured that her top was long enough to look like a dress so I just bought her top.


Here are Galleria and Aqua together. My collection of AA dolls is growing! Sweet!!!


This is Edeline from 12 Dancing Princesses, which I know nothing about either, hahah. I only found her head so I had to look for a replacement body. Luckily I found an MTM. It was broken: neck peg is missing, so were the hands, and the feet are mismatched, but I winged it and was able to give the MTM body to Edeline. I love her Goddess sculpt face. 


I found this Britney Spears doll and rescued it, but I sold it afterwards. Even though I was tempted to keep it, it didn't feel right.


Turns out that my instincts were right. I found another Britney Spears doll and they actually had stains on their face. I was glad that the stains came off so she looks presentable. Her hair was cut off, so I had to trim it a little. Her hair at the back is shorter but I can manage.


Here she is with Baby Spice. They look cute. My caption for this photo over at Instagram is "Hit Me Baby Spice One More Time", lol!!!


Just as the World Cup was about to end, I found this 1998 Women's World Cup Barbie! She had her jersey uniform, long socks, soccer cleats and even her shin guard! And she could really kick a ball, if you pull her right leg back and push a button on her back! Pretty cool!


I decided to bring out my fake grass and it worked perfectly as a background!


World Cup Barbie finally met my Soccer MTM doll. They look badass, don't they?

  1. Have you ever seen the Raven Symone doll based on the That's So Raven television series? I have one that I bought second-hand and I really like her. Though I'm not convinced that she actually looks like a young Raven Symone.

    2. You should be able to find pictures of the doll online. The doll was made by Mattel and was available for sale in the United States around the year 2005. This information should help with online search terms.
