Are Sindy dolls really coming back?

[cupcakes]

Just heard this on the radio. Apparently they are going to be less shapely than Barbie and more demure.

I used to love Sindy.

me too! sindy was brill!

Sindy was a real woman.

We had a Tressy too, with the hair that grew. And Pippa dolls.

Amanda Jane anyone?

don't remember amanda jane. pippa and big sister daisy!

dd has one , but she's shrunk since I had mine !

ohh amanda jane, wasn't she small and dumpy with blonde hair ?? and I think she had a couple of friends as well.Oh and wasn't there a younger sister as well.

DAMNIT... now I want a girl

Sindy Doll Mail Order - looks like they've got the new dolls. I like them, far less sluttish.

ah they're not the same though, they look cheaper, everything was so much better made then, although i had a sindy in the 70s

No, not the same - but look more girlish, which I like (and are six thousand times better than those dire Bratz dolls)

i've got boys so haven't really kept in touch with dolls, but those bratz are horrible, who thought that was a good idea i wonder

Agree much much nicer than Bratz (and Barbie for that matter). Dd is only 3 but already says 'I like that' when she sees Bratz ads on tv. Am going to attempt to divert to Sindy.
I wonder if she still has a horse and stables. I used to have the gig (sp?)
and swimming pool
and tv studio (???)
and beach buggy
and house

So many years of birthdays and Christmas were taken up with Sindy...

oh, my Sindies were indeed demure too - remember vividly one speaking at a conference of other dolls wearing a suit and glasses. Lectern and everything.
I had the gig too - Sindy would wear a shawl and a long tartan skirt to ride in it and looked positively Victorian. My impoverished but creative mum knitted boxes of clothes for them - bikinis, tracksuits with matchign sweatbands. Bet she still has them somewhere...

The pictures on the website look curiously like the Lilydolls (but this is a Good Thing).
