Journey to the Past

Ever since Tin became my new owner, she has been researching all over the web about dolls in order to properly identify me. However, identifying a Barbie doll when there are hundreds of them, specially if not a Vintage/Mod or Collector doll, is extremely hard. She thought I was a Fashion Fever doll, maybe Barbie's friend Summer to be specific because of my features, but she has this nagging feeling that she's wrong. All she knew at that time was that I have a Generation Girl face sculpt (entry # 1)

Thanks to Charles, a former staff writer of Barbie Bazaar Magazine and owner of the website, dollstuff.net, Tin and I discovered a lot about my identity as a doll. :)

Lemme tell you about some stuff that we found out just today:

1. I'm a Fun Treats Barbie from 2001/2002.
2. Since I'm a Barbie, I'm not a Summer doll. Lol! :D
3. I can't be a Fashion Fever doll because the production of FF didn't start until 2004/2005.
4. And I do have a Generation Girl head mold. At least Tin got that right. Whew!


Here's a photo of me as a Fun Treats Barbie that Charles sent me:

And here I am now:

Tin rerooted me with the help of most probably the best doll customizer here in the Philippines, Niel of 1-6thsensedolls. :)

I will still have to go through some changes, but Tin would like to thank Charles and Niel for helping her discover my past and guiding her into making me a future full-pledged OOAK doll, respectively. :)

Have a great week everyone! :)
