Post by: ForeverKokiri on Tuesday 04 February 2014, 03:58 pm: Comb AA comes with pretty much every dollar store barbie.

Post by: Titania on Tuesday 04 February 2014, 09:50 pm: A- The thing about this although it came in Totally Hair Barbie, a brand of fakie My Little pony manufacturers have used the same mould for the comb.

GG is from Barbie Island Princess Rosella doll.

Q might be a modern Barbie fairy doll.

Post by: garagesailor on Thursday 06 February 2014, 12:51 am: Ok, I'm pretty sure L is from Playground Kids by Ertl. There is a tiny "PK" on the end of the handle I didn't see before. I couldn't come up with a decent image of the dolls with their combs though. Anyone collect these and know for sure?

A few other clues: Comb BB says Durham Ind. Inc. 1984 on one side. I couldn't come up with much except some Barbie clones, but no specific for that comb. Brush W says Mattel on it, so is probably a Barbie brush, just not sure which. Brush HH has horse hooves on the other side of the handle, and also... it glows in the dark!

Post by: EmBee on Saturday 15 February 2014, 03:10 pm: Oh my god WHAT IS R. I had this comb. I really want to say it came with a baby doll like Baby All Gone or Baby Check-Up. I'm going to be racking my brain on this one....

Post by: wingsinmoonlight on Thursday 27 February 2014, 05:28 am: HH I don't know what it is....but there is something about that brush. I want it if you sell it anyway...
Maybe just cause I have a thing for glow in the dark...
Title: Re: Comb and Brush ID Challenge!
Post by: garagesailor on Friday 28 February 2014, 02:19 pm: I didn't think of selling them, but I could. I would like to get an ID on it first though. Why is it so hard to find these old combs??

Post by: Dludnerad on Monday 03 March 2014, 03:44 pm: the star on the HH brush looks like a care bear design

Any update on what R is? I've got this one and would love to know!

I've also got P, but in white. Anyone know what it is please?
Title: Re: Comb and Brush ID Challenge!
Post by: goaway-11 on Saturday 14 April 2018, 10:05 am: CC is from one of the range of Quick Curl Barbies 1970's. I've got this in white, which came with Quick Curl Miss America. Not sure which Quick Curl Barbie had the yellow.

Post by: ~RoseDuste~ on Friday 08 February 2019, 12:08 pm: II came with a matching brush, but my info may just deepen the mystery. If you asked 10-year-old me who it belonged to she would have insisted it came with this pink dragon:

30-year-old me can see a dragon has no use for a comb or a brush, but toy companies can sometimes be a bit random with their accessories, so who knows?

Dragon has 1988 Blue Box on it's butt and I've never been able to find any info on it.
Title: Re: Comb and Brush ID Challenge!
Post by: Kathleen on Sunday 29 December 2019, 11:02 am: I think R is from the Bonnie Bowrette dolls.
Title: Re: Comb and Brush ID Challenge!
Post by: EmBee on Saturday 04 April 2020, 02:46 am: Interesting.. I can't verify R for Bonnie Bowrette. But I'm starting to think it was a common comb mold for 90s dolls.

You can see the comb from Bonnie Bowrette in the upper picture, it has another colour though.

Post by: MM_nostalgia on Friday 15 April 2022, 06:21 am: JJ is from a Kooshie Koos set, from the late 90s early 2000s. I had the little bedtime set, with a small kooshie koo doll, a mini version of the same doll, a purple crib, and glow in the dark lamp.
