lol, man it's like you rescued the cast of Lost from the island!

Is it just me? Or does the guy on the right with the gloves on look like Will Ferrel?

lol My only wish was that he did not have gloves for hands and molded hair :c

The 3 Barbies in the back had matted hair but I revived them! The one with a missing head also had matted hair, fixed it, and she's being repainted now. Btw, wiping off the paint on a dolls with molded hair is a pain.

That's the Club Birthday Nolee. Her hair can be a bit difficult and prone towards the frizzies but I think it's pretty. Here she is in her original get up.

I've got a crew of MS dolls, a whole big container full, including all of the boys. (Getting those took me a while.) I've a bit of a soft spot for them, particularly Chelsea and Kenzie who can be very hard to acquire. Nia can be too, but I've got one at least. One of my main doll missions is to finally get my hands on a used Vespa Kenzie so I can complete my Kenzie set. She's by far the most gorgeous of them all but I haven't managed to snag her yet though I do have all the others they did. The other one is an early "My Look" Barbie one. She has the Barbie face not the Kennedy one and I think she is this one. Makeup and earrings look about right.

This is Vespa Kenzie, She's one of my holy grails when it comes to the MS dolls. The other is Roller Girl Chelsea. I have the rest of that set but I've not snagged her as yet either.

(The Roller Girls have a different mouth than the usual one.)

It looks like you found some real gems. Just out of curiosity, about how much did you end up paying per doll?

Oh god, I don't even really know. Goodwill auctions will price them real cheap, but then slam you with shipping and handling fees. I got charged for one of my packages $30 because they weighed it as 20lbs when it was only 3lbs. Hubs wants to file a complaint but I honestly don't think that's gonna get us anything since goodwill considers everything a donation.

@Magkelly: That one you called the early "My scene" seems about right as that's the exact outfit she came in. lol

The guy with the gloves is a Power Team Elite SWAT officer. The gloves will come off and you can put replacement hands on him. Look for ones sold for Dragon figures with wrist posts. They're nice guys who turn up in discount stores at holiday time and have great stuff for their retail price.

I'd like to see a better shot of the brunet Ken on the far left on the towel, opposite end of glove guy. Check for the mark on the back of the guy next to him, if it says M&C Toys he's an older PTE or he could be something else.

This guy is the X-Files agent:

I have the woman but her legs were HORRIBLY stained. Like, she looked like she got into an accident and she had bruises up and down her legs. She's currently on my porch in a thick layer of Remove-zit.

He doesn't have that marking you were talking about. Just Made in China on his butt.

~makes grabby hands for Mulder~

There's a lot of made in China knock-off guys. He doesn't match anyone I have and the skinny arms and over done chest make it look like he was Frankenstiened together from a couple different guys. Or he's one of the newer store brand soldiers.

That's supposed to be Mulder? Maybe an early teen version of him.
