Title: [ID: My Pretty Topsy Tail] 1993 Tyco Doll, who is she?
Post by: Blippo on Saturday 03 July 2010, 08:43 pm

1993 Tyco about 13" doll, blonde with pink earrings and a pink stripe in her hair. No original clothing, somebody knitted her current outfit. Reminds me of PJ sparkles, but no bow in her hair and she doesn't do anything exciting. She has an excited expression on her face though like some sort of DJ doll that used to have a headset microphone.

A picture would be useful if you are able to.  :)

I found an Ebay listing with what seems to be the doll you described:

It doesn't say what she is, but maybe the photo can help someone ID her. :)

Yep, that's the girl. Thanks, you're good. Sorry I couldn't get my own picture up, my computer is full of viruses and fun stuff like that and no longer reads the flash drive.

Is it from the Lil Miss Make Up range?

Nope, those were by Mattel, although she definitely seems to be in the same vein.

I had this doll. So glad you posted the picture because I still have the brush and mirror but I couldn't remember what doll they belonged to.

FOUND HER! She is a Tyco My Pretty Topsy Tail Doll.

Definetly the same doll, I can tell by the face, hair, clothes. But different accessories. The ones in the first picture are not her original accessories.

 If you look at the brush, comb, mirror and hair ties from the original picture...they are for humans. Too big for dolls.

Great find! The earrings are a dead giveaway too. She's definately cuter without the fugly leotard and ponytail. I'm still calling her PJ Sparkles Jr. Tyco didn't give her a name.
