I was so happy when I got them (as they came from the same person) and saw that. My suitcase I got send from America for and my Big Violet again.
second row : hair ribbons I had from when I was a kidlet back in the 80's. A close up of Baby Brite just because I think she's gorgeous. :D

My newest Rainbow. She looks wonderful. The 'sparkly' bits on her outfit look new . Actually the whole doll looks unplayed with. I have the decals for both her and her 'twin' but havnt attached either back onto them yet as I'm not sure what would be the best way to.



I just have a few quick questions is anyone could help.

Why did they make diffent legs for the dolls like my Patty's? And why did they make them different heights as my two are alot different in height wise?

What would be the best way to attach Rainbow's decals back onto the dress?
And on the back side of the top part of Rainbow's dress that would be hidden under the decal are the numbers printed '21844' or maybe '2184L". Does anyone know why that's there?

Cute collection! I don't know why they were different heights or styles, but i do know that there are two versions of a few of the dolls, even rainbow brite. With star shoes and without. I'm sure other members could answer better than me! There is also another version of a slightly taller doll. They are made by "emotions" I believe they are 15 inches or so, and a little more rare. Only a few of the characters were made in this size. Its hard to find them without Vd's on their faces. Something with the plastic used to make them.

I also see La La is missing. I have her with no hat if you need her, just pm me. I'm not selling anymore, but i don't want to just give her to goodwill! Rather sell her to a member for super cheap than go to a stranger. I have some sprites left over and a pvc too. Just thought i'd mention just in case you needed or wanted her.
Good luck with collecting! I miss collecting the many things i used too, but kids are expensive and took all my collecting money hehe.

there is some glue that is made just for fabric. It is called tacky glue. just head to any craft/sewing store and look for one that is washable and dries clear. a little dab will do just follow the directions. :)
