But I wanted to see what kinds of mini babies are available on the market today, so I focused on this theme during one of my Target missions. I don't think any of them will replace my favorite 2000s Barbie babies, but its nice to have cheaper and easier to find options. In any case, I've reviewed a few different surprise babies over the years, including Zapf Jolly Dollies and the unrivaled Cabbage Patch Babyland Mini Kids--which are still probably my favorite surprise mini of all.

The shape of this baby's mouth coupled with the surprise under his diaper reveal that this is a drink and wet doll. I must say though that the Baby Born Animal babies are very cute, you were so lucky getting two redheads. I wish that Marigold had neck articulation, and I wish her mouth and been painted more carefully, but otherwise she's great.Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item.

Brianna's clothing was accented with seafoam green, and all of the Creatable World kids have that color in their packaging. The wings look very dramatic, but their velcro attachment isn't very strong, and they tend to look floppy.I think it's very interesting how, with surprise toys, it's not just the toy itself that is bought, but also the feeling of opening it and finding a surprise. Its hard to find carriers for dolls that small and Gina comes with one that work would for a few sizes! I was surprised and delighted to find these babies in Target just as they were, in their miniature blister packs, displaying everything clearly so that I could inspect for defects and get exactly the ones I wanted. I think Chester and Apollo would make great bath toys, with their ability to drink and pee, but little Chester was still leaking water out of his mouth when I took that picture, above, which was days after I'd fed him.

Includes two or three babies with swaddle wrap and one bed, birth certificate and overview of the babies. These 6cm dolls come in a unique swaddle, have their own stackable beds and have movable arms and legs. I didn't really care if they matched each other--or even if they were a perfect match for their parents, but it was such a fun addition to any doll game. A surprise toy with an option that's clearly better than the rest (maybe even advertised as such) is setting kids up for a *bad* surprise, which is the worst. I've had quite a negative view on surprise toys lately, but the quality of some of the ones you've been reviewing have been a pleasant surprise (lol).Even for kids who don't have Barbies, there are a lot of other dolls who can adopt 1:6 babies like Marigold. Last year I drove seven hours from Maine in my tiny Prius packed full with all of the remaining belongings from our old house, plus four stressed-out dogs and two small cats. I'm glad that I took a chance on a second character in this scale, because I think Chester is adorable. But here I am sitting on my couch typing up a surprise review, which, if you'd asked me a year ago, is not something I ever thought would happen again. Or perhaps it's just because mini babies are great little toys, either on their own as something to nurture, or as a fun new addition to a doll family.
