Sisters Skateboard!
I found these dolls while hunting for 002 #17 Ken doll.
I've had yet to success with #17. So... there are new Barbie sisters.
Here we have Barbie and Stacie.
Sisters Skate
The Barbie is not what I would call anything exciting.
The Barbie is not what I would call anything exciting.
No new face and the head seems large.
She has bendable knees but she has one bent arm. To me,
two bent arms are not OK either. Just one bent arm is not a good
thing either. It limits play with the doll. The Barbie will go into
the body box.
Note that Stacie is now a redhead (strawberry Blonde) and not
a blond. Stacie's friend Whitney was always the redhead. So I
guess we won't be seeing Whitney any time soon. She has a
different body too. She has articulation legs.
The skate part comes off and shoes can be worn by itself.
I also have Skipper and Chelsea. Previously, Barbie's baby
sister was Kelly and I believe that there was a
New packaging too!
One of the big advantages of cost-cutting at Mattel is that
the packaging is no longer like Fort Knox's. Mostly tape
plastic and thread.
The comparisons!
Chelsea
Chelsea is the same size as the SIS little sister dolls.
There is also a Chelsea sold by herself but she is not
smiling. Surprisingly she is three dollars less than the
SIS little sisters set. Is it because her arm can only go up and
down and not sideways too? Is that worth three extra dollars?
Her hands are different too.
Stacie is taller than the old (1992) Stacie and she
has articulating knees. Since this is a new body, clothing
may be an issue for this doll. Also, the addition of
articulation gives both Stacie and Skipper the
cutest little bowlegs.
2010 Stacie is taller than the old (1992) Stacie but
smaller than the (1972) Skipper. She is also smalle
than the 1987 Skipper.

and 1992 Stacie shoe. Plenty of room in the shoe!
2010 Stacie's feet are smaller than 2010 Skipper's feet.
2010 Skipper's feet are narrower than 1992 Stacie shoes.
1992 Stacie had some of the
biggest feet for a small doll. 2010 Skipper's feet same size
as High School Musical dolls andMary Kate and Ashley. Teen
Skipper's feet are a little larger.
Skipper!

School Musical doll. I don't own the 1964 skipper so I can't
School Musical doll. I don't own the 1964 skipper so I can't
compare.
Warning nude dolls!
