I don't do enough girl's toys features and that's a mistake cause I've got a great female readership and well, there's some really funky cool stuff out there.
Take for example Kenner Sea Wees, a bath centered toy line featured little mermaids who of course had long hair you could style (the play value of this evades me but it appears to be a long running standard).
Kenner ran Sea Wees for five years and it retains a cult following today. Heck I even have a male friend who collects them but I won't reveal his name, unless he stops paying me...
I remember these. I don't think I had them, but I remember them!
ReplyDeleteI had the blonde one with the pink fin, when they were reissued with the babies.
ReplyDeleteI had Frosty and Flo, the ones with the light blue fins: http://www.ghostofthedoll.co.uk/Toys/SeaWees/IcyGals/IcyGal_Frosty_CardCloseup.jpg :D
ReplyDeleteI'm sure my mom wasn't so crazy about them, though. They're part of the reason she had trouble getting me out of the tub...
I still have some of these, and would kill for the bubble ballet girls! Seriously!
