[ID: Magic Megan] Magician doll, by Mattel?
« on: Wednesday 05 May 2010, 08:18 am »


This is a doll that I have been wondering about for quite some time now.  I have tried but I can't figure her out.

Supposedly:
- 1992
- 15"
- Bow tie twirls.
- Shoes have secret compartments (reminds me of Sally Secrets by Mattel)

Thankies!
-Em

That does sound an awful lot like a Sally Secrets doll.  I don't know of many other dolls that have such deliberate "hidden" parts to them, plus it's Mattel.  Hmmm.

I am not certain that it is by Mattel, but I really do think it is.  I should have been more specific.  :)

Curious thing!

Oops, just read your title wrong.  My fault :)

I still think the similarities to Sally Secrets are compelling though.  Now I'm noticing the blonde hair with rainbow streaks, which is another tie in.

No not your fault!  I changed it after you mentioned that.  ^^

I agree!  Such a Mattel quality.

Her name is Magic Megan. This picture is from the 2000 KMart Toy catalog.

Wooow!  Skill!  :D  Thanks so much Pikapal!  ^^

And it appears that there's a really similar doll in the middle to Makeup Beauty (1993).  :O!

Thanks again.  Phew.  :)

You're welcome.  ;D

I recognized her and remembered I saw her in an old catalog.

I think I still have the little instructions manual that came with it. I had this doll when I was younger :)
