Hey Gang!
I found a few Babysitters Inc dolls in Target! Even some hard to find ones!
reuses the names of the old Skipper friends. Because the old Skipper only had a AA
friend, I don't think there was a name given to the Asian doll. Is the AA doll called
Janet? Let me know.
Courtney and Kevin. Are they a couple?
Kevin and the Asian doll.
The Asian and Courtney are the same complexion.
As you may know, I am not a fan of the whole bent arm thing!
I was told it was to hold the baby.
Comparing Kevins!
He is a little taller than the old Kevin
The feet are bigger!
maybe cousins.
Head says 2017.
Asian girl says 2016.
2015 although they look the same.
Sisters!
create a new doll! I think they look like Mom and daughter.
The family!
A bit of mom and a bit of dad!

Great comparisons, they look alike but not exactly the same. The family looks lovely together :-).
I believe Janet was actually one of Stacie's friends, back in the 90s. Skipper did have an African American friend during her Teen Skipper phase in the early 2000s, but that doll was named Nikki. This was before Mattel decided to name Midge's daughter Nikki.
I don't know much about the new Skipper babysitting line, but I did have a Babysitter Courtney when I was growing up in the 90s.

I really hadn't notice the "family" resemblances until you posted this, but now I see it too! These make very cute families, all of them!
I named my Asian Claudia, after the Asian gal in the Babysitter Club books! For the others, I used names of Skipper classic friends - Nikki, Courtney, and Kevin. Courtney is the Hispanic... I didn't get the strawberry blonde because I thought she looked too much like Stacie.
Thanks for your comment Millicent, Treesa, Phyllis, and Jeanie!
Millicent and Phyllis, I love this family! They just need a few more family members!
Treesa, You are right and thanks for the info. I will adjust the post and my dolls based on your info. Thanks!
Jeanie, Thanks for the info! I am not feeling' Claudia for my little Asian girl. I will have to come up with something for her. I would be more acceptable to use Claudia for the Hispanic girl if I owned her. She is on the list. I am not sure if I want the single or the set.
I thought that all the girls were supposed to be Skipper (just like all the new Barbies in three heights and different complexions are supposed to be Barbie). Do they have names on Mattel.com ?
Thanks for your comment Amaruq! I don't think that Mattel has given them a name but people online have agreed to names! Often the names for dolls since the Barbie Basic line have been given names online. So that online people can tell the difference. The medium brown complexion basic in the red dress with the light brown hair was called Whitney after Whitney Houston who wore a lot of wigs and therefore different styles!
