Yeah, I know I just fucking said that for the rest of 2025 I want to try to spend less and save more.
That is still true.
But another thing that's true is, it would be wise to write a list now of toys I will need to buy later.
Pet Pals Skipper and Courtney are the reason for this list, by the way. The dolls themselves have been on my radar for years, but now that I have both Babysitter and Pizza Party, they are much higher priority . . . so I was looking up prices on Skipper for fun, when I was shocked and delighted to discover that these dolls also have FOUR fashion packs, ALL OF WHICH are adorable and available and affordable?!?!?!?! Are you fucking kidding me?! That's amazing!
Anyway, yeah, let's dive in and start breaking down this list with Vintage Barbies:
* Purple Panic Christie, Perfect Pink Teresa, Extreme Green Skipper, and Cool Blue Barbie
* Secret Spells Christie, Kayla, and Barbie
* Teacher Barbie
* Mermaid Babysitter Skipper
* yet another Babysitter Skipper, this one from 1997 or 98
* more Skippers and Courtneys
Dream Besties:
* at least one Brooklyn
* Skater Malibu (by far my favorite Malibu)
* Daisy
* Zia
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:
* a lot
Action Figures:
* Black Widow from this new line that comes with an action-figure-sized comic book - JUST ORDERED! (I also need Rachel, Beast, and maybe the other three; if Marvel wants to release more action figures with their own tiny comic books, I will be inclined to buy any of them)
* X-Men: MORE; as of right now I only have Jubilee, Beast, and one Storm
* Power Rangers: Vile Violet Rita Repulsa, Metallic Armor Aisha, Metallic Armor Kat, Aisha vs Scorpina, Trini Jason Swap
* Batman Returns Catwoman
