I asked myself, "Why did they have to give her a wink?" when I saw her on eBay, but I wanted her anyway.<br /><br />It's great that you too have Reggae Jenny. My doll has had her photo shoot, but I probably won't get to comment on her until next week. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-67748331614497529822017-01-30T08:55:13.532-06:002017-01-30T08:55:13.532-06:00Hi Brini,

I know I sold mine back in the early 2000s for around $75, which is probably what he is still commanding today. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-14393715363235279672017-01-30T08:54:15.601-06:002017-01-30T08:54:15.601-06:00Hi GG,

At the time she was missing two, I believe, but she swiftly found those. I actually had no plans to add any of the dolls to my collection, but I was searching eBay for something else when R&B Jenny popped up in the search results or as a "you might like" suggestion; and I did (like). Reggae Jenny arrived Saturday. I'll share photos of her soon. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-8640805929355385092017-01-30T08:17:20.485-06:002017-01-30T08:17:20.485-06:00Congratulations on your new Jenny dolls, Debbie.

I have the <a href="http://phillycollector.blogspot.com/2010/07/late-happy-birthday-to-me.html" rel="nofollow">Reggae Jenny</a> (I think ... she may be among the dolls still in storage). I didn't get the R&B one because I did not like the wink. (Shrug.)<br /><br />Georgia Girl may have seen the first Tim in an article by David Hammond. He wrote a lot of Jenny articles for various doll magazines.<br /><br />Looking forward to reading your comments on Reggae Jenny.D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-20291345554202089282017-01-28T07:51:42.899-06:002017-01-28T07:51:42.899-06:00I love these dolls and have been on the hunt for T...I love these dolls and have been on the hunt for Tom every since Ms. Leo shared hers.

Most of the customs I have seen are are beautiful but quite costly and more than I would ever want to pay. I do have the tan Afro Blythe and one with straight hair, but a brown one would certainly enhance that two-doll collection.<br /><br />dbg Black Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-69229524596759123892017-01-26T15:20:21.680-06:002017-01-26T15:20:21.680-06:00Hi Julius,

Since publishing this post, I found and purchased the Reggae Calendar Girl, who should be here and able to share her story soon.<br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-63874658477913405622017-01-26T14:06:03.986-06:002017-01-26T14:06:03.986-06:00Thank-you for telling us about these dolls.

They would fit in, especially Licca since she and Blythe can share shoes and clothes. I do own a Jenny but she's not nearly as interesting as yours.<br />I had no idea Takara had ever made an African American version of Licca or Jenny- with an afro no less!- and that surprised me a bit, since,despite being asked, there hasn't been an African American Blythe yet. All those I've seen were customs, which is great, but not quite the same.Marichahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00295287855690799143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-84173868994861479162017-01-26T13:48:12.000-06:002017-01-26T13:48:12.000-06:00I've always wanted a Takara Barbie or Jenny ev...I've always wanted a Takara Barbie or Jenny ever since I learned that the Japanese version of Barbie was so different. Also I've always been fascinated by Japan and their doll culture. I love all your Jenny'sbut especially 'Music' with her Afro and wink. :) Now I'm intrigued to know what the controversy back in December 2004 was that caused the cancellation of the calendar doll that year!?Julius Maloneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08006134062866647709noreply@blogger.com
