    And here

    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

    Now at least you can finally get the one that has eluded you for so long. It may not be an original but still it'll do as a stand in since the original is so expensive. You're going to have so much fun with this I can already tell!

      It is pretty exciting and hopefully they will eventually get to Banana Twirl if these do really well. It looks like they are doing a nice mix of reissues and classic dolls in new retro inspired outfits. From what I could tell, the toy fair samples looked to be a mix of actual vintage toys and the new reissues. I can't wait to see what the final dolls will all look like.

          That one came out last fall for the 35th anniversary of Strawberry Shortcake. Very nice quality. Even nicer than Hasbro's 30th anniversary doll. I highly recommend it. I guess she is the beginning of the new series, now.

            Cindy and Dani got the Target reissue this Christmas. Very nicely done! I wish all toylines got this treatment! Great for all the Strawberry Shortcake fans, for sure!

              That's great, it's a cute doll. Wouldn't it be neat if Huck's hat was woven somehow, or even burlap? And a reissue Plum Pudding could be affordably customized .

                Nether the Hasbro or the Bridge Direct are a spot on reissue and both have subtle differences. The issues I have with the Hasbro reissue is the dress is too dark and the hat fits poorly. But it does have the original ribbons to close the dress in the back. The Bridge Direct one has Velcro.



                Kenner, Hasbro and Bridge Direct. Both reissues have the first series flat hands.

                And a reissue Plum Pudding could be affordably customized .
                If they get to Plum I'd love it if they did her basic dress since she was only released in her Party Pleaser and Berrykin outfits.

                  I do hope they fix the shoes before release. All the dolls on display, except for the two pack Blueberry, are all using Strawberry's shoe mold. In the original line they all had their own unique shoes.
