I tried to find a date for this post to see if it’s still relevant or actively being used but didn’t have much luck. The blog seems to still get updates, so hopefully this reaches you!
ReplyDeleteNot only do I remember these dolls, I purchased one and still have her. Mine would be from 2001 iirc. I can’t reach her box at the moment, but I found your blog while searching for sizing/clothing for mine. The body type seems different, but I won’t know for sure which I have until I can get her down. It’s been a while since she was displayed.
I do know that mine has violet eyes and a red/auburn colored wig. I purchased her from a Geppeddos that sat up in our mall at Christmas every year back then. I may be confusing her with another doll, but I think mine has a bigger body type. I know she’s dressed more to resemble a toddler than say, an American girl age doll.
As far as cost, I know I was a bit put off at first but caved because I needed something good in my life at that time, so I’d estimate $60-100.
I’m unable to comment with my google account, but I will do my best to come back and see if there is a reply.
Maybe you have a Geppeddo My Way Baby? They had some of the same customizable features, I think, but with baby/toddler bodies and faces. Sadly, I've never owned one of those myself, so I can't tell you much. There are some on eBay if you just search My Way Baby or My Way Babies. :)
DeleteI own both of these dolls, My Way Kid and My Way Baby. Both were gifted to me as a child. My father and grandmother ran one of the kiosks they were sold at. The reason they stopped being sold, I believe, is because Geppeddo went out of business.
DeleteI found one of these dolls at a second hand shop. My 11 year old really likes her and has named her Lemon. Her wig isn't attached and I'm still trying to decide how to glue it down. Maybe we want a new wig 🤔. I got curious about the brand while examining the head to see about fixing the wig and came across this blog. It was a fun read. Thanks for sharing!! (I'll see if I can figure out how to add photos.) She has the mischievous face, dark blonde hair and - what I'm calling - grey eyes. She also came dressed in clothes that are made for her. The tags say My Way Kids. Her body tag does specify that the company who owned Geppeddo was/is located in Salt Lake city, which is where we live 🙂. Maybe I'll run into more items sometime. I'll come back and update if I find more and if I figure out how to add photos.
ReplyDeleteI had about 5 of the my way babies! My mom purchased them from the mall when they were going out of business, I believe back in 2004. Sadly, with tons of moving I can’t find any of them. I believe they were about 50ish dollars each back then. And I recently found one on Mercari. I got her for my mom for Christmas, she was about 100 dollars. Some are cute! And some aren’t.lol but I’d say they are rare to find! I wish I could post a pic of my doll!
ReplyDeleteI bought some doll clothes that include a new with tags My Way Babies shirt and dress levi jumper. Very well made... Even the plastic hanger says My Way Babies. Thanks for information on the doll.
ReplyDeleteI stumbled into these dolls by accident and in trying to find information, found this blog. I'm trying to find more because I'm quite taken with them. I've acquired two so far. One is the cloth body with the Cutie and the other is the all vinyl and what I assume is the all vinyl version of the Mischievous face. My cloth body came with a variety of clothes, so maybe patterns could be made? They each had the ski outfit, do I need to sit down and compare the two
ReplyDeleteI have a My Way Baby that is 22”, cloth body, with the 3rd face, kinda pouty lips, ice blue eyes. His head is kinda floppy where it attaches to the body with the zip tie but he will sit up straight if his body weight is distributed right. I got him from eBay for 30.00 from a shop that was closing due to the owners passing. He can easily wear life size newborn and 0-3 mos. baby clothes. I love my Eddie; he is a keepsake in memorial of my best friend that recently died from cancer. Tried to send a pic but it won’t let me copy and paste.
