Does anyone have one of these Wilko(?) soft body baby dolls?

I'm trying to find one of this type of baby doll, which I think were sold in Wilkos. The body is lots of different colours (ours is pink with a white bib, they were also available in lbue and with stripes), but Wilkos don't seem to sell them now.

In a fit of enthusiasm, I cut the dummy and ribbon off my DD's doll when DD was giving up her dummy, in a "look, baby's given hers up too" kind of way, but 2 years later DD still tells me forlornly that dolly used to have a dummy on white ribbon, and I feel an utter cow for removing it, so I'm trying to track down a replacement ribbon and dummy. DD got a doll feeding set at Christmas which had a dummy in, but it won't fit this doll's mouth.

This is the only image I can find of this type of doll (it's from Fb marketplace and being sold in Rotherham) but we're nowhere near Rotherham and asking the seller if she'd send me just the ribbon and the dummy in the post, when she was expecting someone to turn up and buy both dolls together, feels a bit mean.

Does anyone have one of these dolls, who'd be able to send me the dummy and ribbon in the post please? I'm happy to pay for postal costs if anyone has one.

Thanks.

They are sold in Walmart and called My Sweet Love if that helps with your search.

Walmart own Asda, I think.

@Tamarindtree , thanks but I did look on the Asda website too, wondering if they were from there (doll was bought by an elderly relative when DD was a newborn and she shops in both places) but they're not on the Asda website.

@Tamarindtree apologies if my last post wasn't clear. I know that I've seen them before in Wilkos, in a different colour suit than DD has, hence me knowing they definitely had them there, seemingly in different outfit colours every year. It's good to know the name of the doll though because "soft bodied baby doll" isn't finding anything. I'll have a look for this name.

There are a few on vinted if you search soft body doll

Thanks @Snappyfrog , I've asked a seller if she still has the doll (uploaded 2 months ago).

Asda definitely sold these too as we have one(although she no longer has a dummy either).

I got this one in wilko in October of last year (zoomed in photo of a relative holding it in store). Sorry I’m not selling it as my DD loves it but just to say how recently they had them in.

Thanks @Bernadinetta that's the one we have too. I called into Wilko's yesterday and they had some more expensive "gift" type dolls, but not these.
