Ground hog more like. This car sits so low on its wheels it has zero ground clearance. All four narrow racing slicks go to waste. The bottom of the car scrapes along the ground. How embarrassing!
Mork and Mindy was a Sci-Fi-Comedy spun off of Happy Days, which itself was spun off from Love, American Style. Mattel made the Mork & Mindy dolls using the Sunshine Family body style. I took a Mindy head a rebodied using a Barbie body from the same era to make a Pam Dawber celebrity friend of Barbie. The head does capture Dawber's look and fits the Barbie body quite well.
Japanese Sun Sun Skipper vs. Sun Set Malibu Skipper
The biggest difference is the price... LOL! This Sun Sun is probably the most costly Skipper that I own.
I acquired this custom ooak Ken about a year or so ago. He is one of my favorites. He reminds me of a preppy Eddie Munster all grown up. I just purchased this custom ooak Barbie to go with him. I think they make an awesome "spooky" couple.
New Dream Besties at Target. No price increase, as they are priced like the first releases.

I didn't buy!
This Barbie Bargain Fashion is made from fabric left over from the Kissing Christie gown... For Marie Osmond, Christie, PJ and most 11 1/2" Fashion dolls too!

*Note: This "hybrid" version of Tuesday Taylor had the tanning color change feature, like sister Dodi. Otherwise, she is quite similar to Beauty Queen Tuesday Taylor but did not have the magnetic orange shoes and metal stage stand. A trade off of sorts I suppose. Circa 1978.
I did not know that Mattel reissued the Movie Beach Ken with the Ryan Gosling head sculpt. I noticed today at Walmart that all of the Movie Beach Kens on-hand had the Ryan head. The Movie Roller Skating Kens still had the same smiling face head as originally released... but I made my own Roller Skating Ryan Ken with a little head swapping!
It looks like the tariffs are kicking in as the movie dolls are now $29.97, up from $24.97.
The toothy pets and bat pretzel really add the fun to this set.
I am not sure what Draculaura was eating during the Monster High hiatus, but she appears to have put on a few dolly pounds.
I think this doll is my overall favorite from the Cali Girl line... Horse Riding Lea is a close second.
