>>7690812>I did. They were my most treasured dolls, even the very dull first edition.Consider yourself lucky to have those memories, and treasure them. I would have given almost anything to have one as an 80s/90s kid. In fact if I would have had one I probably wouldn't currently own so many Ariel doll right now, and I probably wouldn't have wasted so much money trying to artificially create the childhood feels I wasn't allowed to have when I should have had them.
Honestly, I still can't have them because even shitty used ones have gone up in price so much I can't afford collect them or gifting myself one as a birthday gift.
I saw these three horrible low quality dolls at target today and I felt a small pain in my chest, and felt like my face felt heavy, and wanted to just slide off . I wish the older doll were price around $15 to $25 instead of $55 to $155.
