Hi all, It's been so quiet here lately? Has everyone moved on to Veronique? Or another doll? Earlier this year, we were talking about the Birthstone Barbies. I was at the Barbie Collectibles site looking at 2004 dolls, and noticed that they are doing the Birthstone dolls all over again in 2004 In looking at the photos, it doesn't seem like anything has changed except the doll's face and hair. The gown seems exactly the same to me. I wish they would've changed the gown at least a little, even though last year's is lovely. It seems they are offering the same month/gown color with a different haircolor. Instead of the semi-curly hair they had last year, the doll's hair is parted on the side and combed over straight. For example, October's doll I think was a blonde last year, but this year it is a brunette; last year's September/Sapphire was a blonde, and now it is a redhead, last year's August/Peridot was a raven/dark brunette, and this year is a blonde! It is nice to have a different hair color for a specific month, especially if the doll is intended as a gift for someone with a certain haircolor, but I really wish the gown was different in style Here is the link if anyone wants to check them out: http://www.barbiecollectibles.com/showcase/products_by_year.asp?iYear=2004
I hope you all have a very Happy Holiday season. Crystal
I was looking at the dolls on the Barbie Coll. site & did you notice the small print below the 2 Lounge Kitty dolls that said the clothing was not removable? go here to read it http://www.barbiecollectibles.com/showcase/ product.asp?type=&subtype=&product_id=1003303
Also on their site you can see some of the vintage dolls & their fashions under their series numbers which may help you to ID something you have. http://www.barbiecollectibles.com/vintage/

Hi Crystal - My name is Jan and I just joined. I was talking to Suzanne a couple days ago and she told me about this great group. So, here I am. My first love is still the silkstones, but Veronique comes in a close second. LOL!! TTFN, Jan ********************
