I think the most popular spanish dolls are probably Mariquita Pérez, Nancy and Barriguitas.<br /><br />Mariquita Pérez was very popular during the 40s, 50s and 60s but during those times only well-off families could afford her. I believe they're not very popular these days, although she's still produced, but I think she's more appealing to collectors than kids. <br /><br />Monihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12883366390927994861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726715699839627686.post-44803614991281164042012-08-12T08:32:54.680-04:002012-08-12T08:32:54.680-04:00Hi Marta--is there another 16" fashion doll t...Hi Marta--is there another 16" fashion doll that you can collect in Spain?

I need to practice to be better at recognizing these hidden gems! Tan stripes on the skirt are a great idea--that would offer some contrast to the rest of the skirt without being too literally scarecrow.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18178054470349012341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726715699839627686.post-53610452049031839102012-08-12T08:26:36.346-04:002012-08-12T08:26:36.346-04:00It's so hard to buy online sometimes, isn'...It's so hard to buy online sometimes, isn't it? I have made many bad calls over the years from having only the tiny promo pictures to look at online. I really wish there were more real doll shops, but I think it is becoming a difficult business. I have a list of several shops in the US that I would love to visit someday, but many of them are a days drive away...or more!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18178054470349012341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726715699839627686.post-79725956861196989402012-08-10T17:36:16.111-04:002012-08-10T17:36:16.111-04:00Hello from spain: this doll is very pretty.

Regarding the details of her outfit, I personally like the skirt although I agree that it could be better stitched and a bit less bulky. The asymmetric portion is attractive to me as a feature, however I think I would have not used checks for the patchwork design ... perhaps something inBarbnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726715699839627686.post-82999517015048132202012-08-08T05:42:19.589-04:002012-08-08T05:42:19.589-04:00A great review as always.

I don't know of any shops that sell Tonner dolls here in Australia so always have to buy online.I must admit that, like you, I had overlooked this doll based on her photos. Now I've seen your review and photos I have a much better idea of what this doll is really like.Carricktershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09323704570291088000noreply@blogger.com
