The toys in the early 90s were so the best! I am even considering paying a high price on ebay I want it so badly

Cupcake dolls were the best!

I'm all about the retro, and your neice may well love the doll. But don't spend too much. SHE won't appreciate the retro! Oh and December is a terrible time to be bidding on vintage toys!

I have made this mistake before!

How odd. My 9 year old DD has asked for a Keyper toy...they're from the blinking 1980s! A mint one ...new in pack will cost me 35 quid! I can't bear to buy a dirty old one for a tenner though.

I want one for me

I had keypers! I quite fancy a mop a top hair shop for my self.
Non to be found Hmm

They bloody stank at first though. Loved mine, but only after the first week or so once the smell had dissipated a bit. I got in so much trouble for stashing it under the caravan overnight in order to speed the process.

My DD loves my keyper!

I had a keyper! The snail one!

I've still got my cupcake doll. I found her the other day when I was sorting stuff. She's lost an arm but managed to keep her hat.

What did they stink of? Shock Keypers stink?

Cupcake dolls? I dimly remember them. Weren't they hideous?
