Title: Cupcake dolls question
Post by: lovebeam on June 23, 2018, 08:28:35 PM

Hi, i was at value village and i passed up on a cupcake doll. I thought it was a knockoff. So i just checked GOTD and she is caramel and is a reissue from 2012 by estrela. Does anyone know if it's worthwhile to go back and get it?

Hmmm I don't know if there's a lot of collectors but you came to the right place to find out :)

Its worth it, if you really want one. The Cupcake reissues are rather cute.

That's really interesting, I didn't know there was a re-issue of these dolls. I have 10 or so of them. Do they have different markings than the Tonka ones?

Only for the hat.  Someone really needs to cast those in resin.

I believe the made by Estrela ones are from Brazil.

Ghost of the Doll (http://www.ghostofthedoll.co.uk/cupcakes-rereleases-estrela.php) has decent info on the Cupcake dolls and their re-releases

I can see why you thought they were knockoffs they look better as cupcakes than as dolls.
