Jasmine Doll Jakks Pacific vs Mattel Jasmine Doll-

Hey Gang!

One of my old thrift store finds is this Jakks Pacific for Disney's Jasmine Doll-Return of Jafar! 2001

The doll came without shoe and her hair was...I believe the technical term is A Hot Mess!  A week or two of fabric softener made her manageable. The outfit is a bit snaggy but she was a dollar.  So in the cart she went.

 This doll  has what I call the ballet hands!

Return of Jafar!

I don't know a lot about Disney movies and thought that there was only one but this doll is 

from the Return of Jafar or Aladdin #2 movie.I had originally believed all the Jasmine wore 

teal outfits but some of the dolls from this movie and some future dolls wear purple. There are

also a red outfit too!

 Here she is compare to the Mattel Jasmine. 

The Jasmine doll is the Mattel Disney Princess Jasmine Holiday 1999 and she is wearing the outfit from the Mattel Princess Story Collection 1997.

There are two styles of the purple outfit.

 Mattel Jasmine is Indira and Jakks Jasmine is Niema !

Warning Nude Dolls

The older doll has a twist and turn waist body and  

the ballet hands.

The knees are click knees and the arms are a softer rubber than you would find 

in Barbie and on other cheaper dolls

It doesn't look like it from this picture but the head of Jasmine works well on the cheap

articulated body I got from China!

She will be sharing this body and the neck knob on the new body, it is an easy change.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Friends For Naveen!

Hey Gang!

So after my Disney Naveen purchase, I thought he could use some company! 
so I added a few other doll of Indian background to my collection.

I added the new Aladdin from Disney! I have named him Amar Khan.  Only

his mom and dad call him Amar.  Everyone else calls him Khan.  I thought

they looked like that would be friends. He has a great smile too! I thought

that they would be the same complexion but Naveen is darker. 

They are some of my college student in Johnston and love hanging out and

having fun.

I love the older Mattel Jasmine doll's face the best.  My only problems with

the older Jasmine dolls is the earring made into the body.  When I found

this one (Holiday Princess Jasmine doll that wasn't like that I had to have

her.  She Is Indira!

She is sporting a combination of clothing to give her the look that I wanted.

Skirt and sweater are Mattel, top and shoes are Liv.

I tried adding a gold dot to the side of her nose as a nose ring.  You can't see

it to well in this picture.

Together!

OK, Thanks For Looking!
