He was the chosen one.<br /><br />I look forward to reading the blog post you plan regarding the "Steffi" head sculpt. I am sure I will be enlightened by it.<br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6472391728648822352.post-85943267719191346582014-11-08T03:40:05.855-08:002014-11-08T03:40:05.855-08:00Hi Georgia Girl, I like Kira but some of them have...Hi Georgia Girl, I like Kira but some of them have better face screening than others.

This doll definitely has the "Spanish" face mold. I believe that mold is a variation on the Steffi face. limbe dollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01704328250988686700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6472391728648822352.post-29589240548769493482014-11-08T03:34:53.498-08:002014-11-08T03:34:53.498-08:00Hi Night Owl, I'm doing some research about St...Hi Night Owl, I'm doing some research about Steffi/ Teresa. The character Teresa was introduced as a Barbie friend in 1988. I don't know what face mold the first Teresa's used but as you note, the face mold that I identified as a Steffi was produced earlier.limbe dollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01704328250988686700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6472391728648822352.post-69773423821123930852014-11-08T03:33:02.250-08:002014-11-08T03:33:02.250-08:00Hi Phyllis, I popped over to Chanasprout and am v...Hi Phyllis, I popped over to Chanasprout and am very tempted.

Oh goodie, goodie - identify time ;-)<br /><br />The dress your early Janay wears is Mattel first Asha's <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/165774885/1991-mattel-shanis-friend-asha-doll" rel="nofollow">original dress</a> and possibly the skirt/robe though I'm not 100% sure on that one. I gave it away - wasn't thrilled with it.<br /><br />I think your second doll has the <a href="http://kattisdolls.net/facesI/fcSpain82.htm" rel="nofollow">Spanish</a> face mold.<br /><br />I think your last doll might be <a rel="nofollow">Rio de Janiero Lea</a>.

I read in Debbie's comment that the Steffi is a Teresa head sculpt, I have a doll with this face mold too, she's from the early 80s, yours is probably also from that period then? Or did this head mold get used for the later 80s also? The girl with the weapons is awesome! I love that jacket, and all the weapons.

I wanted them to have dolls that they could identify with. I have since reclaimed a few of them for my town and they have been rebodied on Liv bodies. I purchased mine from Chinasprout.com. They also sell Barbie/Yue Sai WaWa sized brocade and Mandarin style clothing. Additionally, there is a Kelly sized doll from Yue Sai named Yen Sai WaWa that I also purchased from Chinasprout.Phyllishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06084954419650988542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6472391728648822352.post-79133348029753914642014-11-07T06:58:27.415-08:002014-11-07T06:58:27.415-08:00Congratulations on your new-to-you dolls.
