Any Other Fashion Doll Collectors?

[MomoAdachi]

Am I the only one on CAA who collects fashion dolls(Barbie/Bratz-style-dolls)? I just recently acquired my dream doll, a 1968 titian Talking Stacey who still talks! My favorite doll lines past and present are vintage, MOD, and SuperStar-era Barbie, Dawn, Darci, Spectra, Jem, Lace, Winx Club, and JPI Starr.

...does it say stuff like Malibu Stacey does?

LOL! I always seriously wonder now if Malibu Stacey was named after Barbie's "British chum" Stacey, 'cause "Barbie and Stacey" was plastered all over Barbie cases in the late '60s. She says "Hello there, I'm called Stacey", "Being a model is terribly exciting", "Oh dear! What shall I wear to dinner?", "I think miniskirts are smashing!", "Let's have Barbie over for tea", and something about the "cinema". It's funny 'cause the talking mechanism is really a miniature record player inside her torso which randomly selects a phrase, and she's prone to repeat the same phrase over and over, like she has dementia.

Well I'm not a fashion doll collector, but I do have my own asian ball-jointed doll, Arioc *points to avatar* and a collection of plushies to my name.

^_^ I've always been interested in vintage toys, though~ 8D Old stuff is just so awesome to have.
