I don't know if that pair of dolls were marketed that extensively ;-} <br /><br />@Vanessa - glad to show a new face to you. Oh and her bag is from Integrity Toys. It was sold with two <a href="http://phillycollector.blogspot.com/2009/08/pierre-janay-and-his-six-daughters.html" rel="nofollow">Janay variations</a>. <br /><br />@Georgia Girl - glad you liked the floral pink dress/kimono/hanbok? she came in. Her eyes are a little bit wonky, but I like her open smile. And she has a solid weight to her. I think her arms should have been a little bit longer for her head and her body, but her face drew me in.<br /><br />@Limbe Dolls - oh, yes, the $18 price almost made me <i>not</i> get her, but it's so rare to see an Asian fashion doll, I bit my cheek and paid it. Ouch, then. Whew, now ;-) Congrats though on getting her at a better price. <br /><br />I could use more Asian dolls, too.

I loved the ancient Chinese gowns they wore but I kept waiting for them to go on clearance while Kmart was going bankrupt but they never did. I've been kicking myself ever since for not buying them.<br /><br />I got one for $10 at a doll show two years ago. The box indicated that the doll was made by Integrity Toys. Her face does look a little like an early Integrity toys doll that I bought at Toys R Us in the late 90s or early 2000s. Whoever made her I wish they would bring back more Asian dolls!limbe dollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01704328250988686700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-32506378986758312092013-06-13T22:13:12.884-04:002013-06-13T22:13:12.884-04:00I have this one also.

I was searching fr on Ebay, but without luck, and I can't buy them in Poland.jewel snakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00313548845051889616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-7143706988069410602013-06-13T16:08:43.237-04:002013-06-13T16:08:43.237-04:00Thanks, MissSpottyJane and Ms. Leo, for sharing th...Thanks, MissSpottyJane and Ms. Leo, for sharing this information. Yes, this doll was about $18 - and I didn't like the dress as much as I wanted the different face. <br /><br />@MissSpottyJane - I do think that the body is the same as the <a href="http://phillycollector.blogspot.com/2012/06/catalina-and-damita-munecas-from-jakks.html" rel="nofollow">Catalina/Damita</a> dolls - the hands have that same splayed pose. <br /><br />Thanks for the tip about the Liv body, too, Ms. Leo. While I would like for this doll to be more poseable, I like that she has a fuller body almost more ;-}<br /><br />I am hoping that the Prettie Girls and that the new Mixis dolls get out. Someday ... sigh.

I purchase her for cheap because the box was beat up badly. I couldn't pay the 18 bucks that was asked for for this doll even with the dress. She is on Liv body now. <br /><br />The IT dolls were the best in the line and sold out first! Some of the outfits were cute and some, not so much.<br /><br />It is time for another manufacturer to make a run at Mattel. They need another good shake up and I need some new doll faces and some great guys!Ms. Leohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09742194324517520395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-31315063002509136342013-06-13T07:34:57.968-04:002013-06-13T07:34:57.968-04:00I think there were at least three contributing com...I think there were at least three contributing companies to the Just Girlz line, and I wish I had bought them all. Integrity put in the AA dolls with the Alysa or Jade head mold. Chic Boutique released some really nice AA and hispanic dolls, much nicer than their usual Chicas a la Moda. I think you have one by Jakks, I think it has the same body as their Muneca de Moda Damita & Catalina dolls. I got one Integrity and one Chic Boutique doll from the line, but none of the (possibly) Jakks because I just didn't feel like paying $18 or so for a clone.MissSpottyJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08137549387809564018noreply@blogger.com
