The two on the right (as you look at them on your screen) appear to be earlier dolls. They are marked Basa on their bodies and Basa Peruana on their heads. The two to your left are later girls. Their vinyl is slightly different and pinker in color. They are only marked on their heads.
They are the same size as the Japanese and Hong Kong made ones that are very similar in appearance.
Thanks for the tag, Simone Laurenta!
I have been looking at the very sensous entries for this tag game and really wanted to do my version as well. So I chose my effortlessly sexy Fairytopia Magical Mermaid Christie doll and came up with this photo.
Consider yourself tagged if you see this and feel free to play if you desire!

I didn't have a camera around when I first got home from the market, and instead of waiting for it, I just went ahead and cleaned my purchases. So you get a first ever post-cleanup flea market finds photo from me! :D
As you can see, today was a great day for shopping! I first was very happy to find a "Fairytopia Magical Mermaid" Christie, whose tail was broken and had the fin missing, but I only wanted her head anyway (I've wanted a blonde black doll for so long)! I then grabbed a dark toned articulated Christie doll and the redhead "Hip To Be Square" doll. Their clothes were random finds that I got along with them. I also got an Elvis Stitch bobble-head from "Lilo and Stitch".
Heading to this other vendor, I found this Mego "Madame Chan" Cher doll, whose hair was a dirty mess, but she came with her complete outfit and I got her at a bargain price. I am in awe of her awesome sculpt! All in all, a very fruitful day!

I got curious of how flexible Sam really is and started playing with her. I haven't sueded her at all or done any other posing modifications at this point. Turns out she can hold her tail (after a few failed attempts and almost gotten slapped in the face a couple times)!
As a joke I put a cat doll on her, to make her into a catapult. Yes, the horrible pun was necessary.
Sam is a Dollzone Minas on a Dollzone Sawarieda body.

With all the mermaid love going around, I felt it was important to give some love to the brave and swift Mermen of the undersea world, who protect the waters and are the primary hunters among Merfolk.
So here, for the ‘Underwater’ theme for day 21 of #mermaydg2018, we see a handsome Merman, swimming off for yet another hunt.

The oceans are full of countless kinds of fish, and Merfolk have learnt how good fish are with directions, since they have coexisted with them for centuries!
Here, for the ‘Fish’ theme for day 17 of #mermaydg2018 , we see a super shimmery and shiny mermaid who is following the lead of her fish friends, as they swim their way towards some new treasures to be collected!
Taking photographs of little plastic statues of half-naked mermaids in front of a book one has recently read and then posting those images online in public forums was, somewhat surprisingly, not one of the suggestions in Eric G. Wilson's How to be Weird: an off-kilter guide to living a one-of-a-kind life (2023, Penguin Books).
Among the 99 "lessons" featured in the book, only one was doll or toy related: "Lesson 39: Consider a Victorian Doll."
Rather than actually doing anything with a doll, Victorian or otherwise, Professor Wilson's suggestion (Eric G. Wilson is a university professor of English at Wake Forest University in North Carolina) is to consider a "thought experiment" –– imagine you are a Victorian porcelain doll who has grown weary of your existence in an elderly collector's guest room.
Stereotype muchly, me-thinks? The pretentious son-of-a-sea-biscuit, or should I specify "highly educated white male East coast professional in his mid-fifties," takes great pains in other "lessons" to present himself as culturally and socially sensitive, even decrying the portrayal of non-American and non-European cultures as "exotic" in 19th-century Cabinets of Curiosities, but he thinks nothing of promoting a long-held stereotype about doll collectors.
The "thought experiment" involves considering three options for the Victorian doll: remain as you are, become a puppet on strings who knows who is controlling you, or become an automaton who has freedom of movement but who is programmed to exist in a constant state of fear that every action might be wrong. Journal your thought processes as you consider the options.
Consider the options! Journal about it! Truly off-kilter, that is!
Dammit, dude! How about you take your Victorian porcelain doll to the local history museum, take a photo of her (or him, if you can find a "him" Victorian porcelain doll) with each Victorian-era exhibit, and then "imagine" your dolly friend's reaction to seeing their normal, everyday life enshrined in a museum and "curated" to present it in a "culturally sensitive social context." Post your photos and your commentary -- I mean your doll's commentary -- on Instagram so everybody can see it. Jiminy Christmas, privately journaled thought experiments? Who do you think your readers are, a bunch of twelve year old girls?
(Yeah, now I'm stereotyping 12 year old girls -- who are far less likely to keep a diary these days -- because it's not 1959 anymore -- and far more likely to post every single thing they do online... but not on Instagram, because that's for old people, so probably on TikTok or some site or app I've never even heard of.)
In a "lesson" on creating your own made-up words (that's weird?), the author smugly references various made-up words from literature -- prominently featuring examples from "non-white" authors, of course, because after all, he's culturally, socially, and racially on point -- but he left out ætetaurian by Michael Chabon, so I got to feel all smug and superior because ætetaurian is way better than the examples he used. Nor did he mention possibly the most widely-known made-up word: supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
The closest suggestion among the 99 offered in this book to doing anything overtly weird in public -- hang on to your hats, this is really out there -- is to paint cryptic or nonsensical phrases or sentences on rocks and surreptitiously leave them in the yards of your neighbors.
That's edgy stuff, that is.
Although it's not really "public" because you're being surreptitious and trying not to be seen doing your weird rock thing. Like, if you're weird in the forest and nobody is around to see your weirdness, are you truly weird?
Most of the suggestions are "thought experiments" -- imagine something and then write down how you feel about it. In your journal.
I wonder if the journal should have a cute little padlock on it?
Because seriously, another suggestion is: write the name of somebody you dislike or had issues with in the past in the center of a sheet of paper and then... doodle around it.
You wouldn't want anyone to see that, so the journal had darned well better have a lock on it!
The author claims you can make ink by soaking copper pennies in vinegar for a few weeks. I wouldn't exactly categorize that as being weird, but it sounds kinda cool, so I had to look it up.

I don't know if pennies would work. They won't work for our Canadian friends or our English friends because pennies aren't a thing there anymore. (So much for your multi-cultural sensitivity, Professor Pretenti-pants!) Pennies in America are mostly zinc with a thin copper coating, so I don't know if there's enough copper in a penny to make ink. You'd probably have better luck with an old copper pipe elbow, if you can find one. But I digress.
The one -- out of 99, the one -- suggestion in the book that I thought was actually kind of weird was to go stand on a window ledge high above the street, or on a rooftop, or on the edge of a cliff, and see if you felt an urge to jump.
I kinda was feeling an urge to jump off a window ledge after reading this book and seeing how prosaic were most of the suggestions for "living a one-of-a-kind life." Are people really and truly as constrained by social norms as this book would suggest? Are the options to either be a raving lunatic living in your own feces on a street corner or to be exactly like everyone else in a world where it is radical to -- gasp! -- imagine everyone around you is a robot! Write down how you would feel!
I did find something WEIRDly coincidental about this book. Last week I learned a new-to-me word on The Dal House doll forum (an online forum dedicated to a specific style and brand of plastic dolls), a word I had never seen or heard or read before: petrichore.
The word petrichore appears in How To Be Weird.
That... was weird.
