Bikes can be used by everybody. What about to go to work?? Or to ride on them in a garden, in a park... they´re perfect for children for example ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18277116211122946271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686868691603248122.post-60158340174547355322014-06-06T15:17:23.389-04:002014-06-06T15:17:23.389-04:00Shasarignis - I've seen the new bike.

Of course, if I do the bike story before I buy it, I probably won't get it.Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027064808344974667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686868691603248122.post-25214863088852332132014-06-04T14:49:52.780-04:002014-06-04T14:49:52.780-04:00Danielle story on the way?

I figured the Evi was only articulated because of the bike. It's the same with some of the Kelly dolls. Some of them have articulated knees because of the activity they are involved in. After reading your story, I feel I need to add a few more bikes.Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027064808344974667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686868691603248122.post-19905579543352465822014-06-03T20:28:20.441-04:002014-06-03T20:28:20.441-04:00Dukasha - Yes I remember now.

Having a bike for my dolls was one of the greatest dreams of my childhood. We even tried to make them ourselves of plasticine and later of wire, buttons and other small things. Now I have several Stacie bikes and teen-sized bikes, two Barbie bikes (they really belong to my friend, who doesn't play dolls anymore) and many, really many bikes and tricycles for small kids. I have many Evi bikes (Evi is a well-known doll here, we have many of them in every big toy store), several Paula bikes (blue and yellow bike in your post), also several finger bikes and several tricycles. And I always want more. lol. Btw Evi usually doesn't have articulated legs, the bike set is the most known version of articulated Evi, but there are also other Evi dolls, who have articulated knees. For example the skiing Evi doll. And there is another doll of her size, Cici, who now always has articulated knees. But she doesn't have bikes, though I like some of her other accessories. Well, she really has some kind of a tricycle, but, as far as I remember, without pedals.Dukashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15127369315850185914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686868691603248122.post-72043660781913022512014-06-03T16:46:02.766-04:002014-06-03T16:46:02.766-04:00Vanessa, we talked about super model bodies about ...Vanessa, we talked about super model bodies about a year ago, here: http://vansdolltreasures.blogspot.ru/2013/06/chynas-day-at-work-photostory.html <br />Do you remember? :)<br />Now we have one of the dolls (Juls) in Moscow stores, and people in Ukraine have Sarah and Miri also, but not Bel (the dark-skinned doll). I have friends in Ukraine and they sent me all the three dolls. Juls and Sarah can be good body "donors" for some HSM-type girls (good color and size match), but their neck is much thicker, so you need to do something with the neck, or neck hole, or both to make the hybrid look good. Skipper dolls on those bodies don't look so good, the color of their heads is different. Though I didn't see AA Skipper on a Bel's body yet.Dukashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15127369315850185914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686868691603248122.post-39671027714098155402014-06-03T12:28:21.622-04:002014-06-03T12:28:21.622-04:00Brini - I'm looking forward to seeing your bik...Brini - I'm looking forward to seeing your bike story.

Unless you were able to sell the Ellie Mae lookalike riding it for $8-10? Not likely though ....<br /><br />Bike story ... a neighborhood race. Impromptu. Someone gets a new bike, challenges someone else and before you know it, others have joined in. <br /><br />Or Rod could teach Julian how to ride - and have Danielle along to learn, too. Or maybe Danielle can teach Julian, Rod, and Rod's daughter (fudge, I'm blanking on her name - her momma is Melanie - Nicole) how to ride.<br /><br />I took a few bad photos over the weekend that I felt ashamed to post. I thought I had the area to myself, but this guy kept peering down at me as if he suspected me of evildoing. Heck, that's a post to share.<br /><br />I'll look forward to whatever biking story or stories you share. With your crew of characters, I am sure I'll enjoy their antics ;-DD7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.com
