I will certainly post some pictures and thoughts about them--and also compare Savannah to her larger self. The two Maru cuties will probably be part of a larger post on new mini dolls in general. :)Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18178054470349012341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726715699839627686.post-40258123673093164892017-02-19T15:02:19.171-05:002017-02-19T15:02:19.171-05:00Maru has just come on sale in the UK and I'm e...Maru has just come on sale in the UK and I'm eagerly awaiting her arrival this week.

I have been waiting / hoping for your review about Mini Maru because I was not sure if my Mini Marus's back was supposed to look so strange... :) Tanya is cute as well.
