First: I don't have the slightest clue as to where I should post this so feel free to toss it into the right place c:.
:Thanks for moving c::
But to the point. I recently bought these cute MLP style plastic cat toys. I had two of these when I was an kid, so I couldn't resist buying these. and I would like to know more about them as to where they came from, are there more than the six of them, and what accessories the orange one had. The seller said that wedding dress and panties belong to the brown one. the bathrobe belongs to the grey one alongside the pyjamas she's wearing. There's no Copyrights anywhere.
Here's some pictures c:

As they are non mlp toys I will move this over to Off Topic for you :)

I can't stop stearing at your games.. Legend of Kartia? Hnnng
Also.. PS2 games filled with horror... and Naruto? :'D
Winland? as in Finland or Denmark?
-
I have never seen them before. They are very cute and weird. :| Their faces look a bit old fashioned, like on '60s toys. Are they in fact older toys? Or newly produced? (as in the '80s or later)
-
I remember seeing one as a kid. Though my memory is very shady but I'm sure I seen one. I've bron 1987.. I think it was a bit old when I saw it too.. I was only child at the time from my whole inside family so I think last pla aged people would be my mom and aunt. my mom had me when she was 19 so I would say the toy could be 70's or 60's.
I sorta want them.. they are darn cute..
you selling them?
-
Those are strange!
**stares**
-
Those are neat! I've never seen them before! Good luck figuring out what they are!

Well I can't be sure of when these were made or sold, as I was born in 1990. and the two I previously had were bought from a flea-market when I was about 6. But the seller said that they were made in the 80's but they haven't confirmed it either.

hahaa, yes I have quite a variety there, being a nerd and all :b.
And as in Finland ;). It's just an inside joke :b
Indeed, as I stated previously that it's not confirmed when these were made or sold, so they could easily be older.
I'm not that sure about selling them. maybe when I find out what these are I'm going to part with few c:
-
my aunt identified one of the cats as her toy what she got when she was a kid. so I'm staying behind my statment.
She said that they bought the cat from a cemical store (lol).
But she also said something about a dog that had a long white snout. I don't know if it is same series but there.
I asked her more but she hasn't yet replied to me.
Also, yeah Winland, its a lil internet joke as well when people found out about Finlandia vodka they started to call Finland as Winland.
If you sell let me know. I suddenly got this burning want because I used to play with those too as a kid. And I dunno.. maybe aunt is interested too, lol.

They look a lot like Kitty Care by Hornby, 1985. I found these browsing Ghost of the Doll a few months ago and fell in love with some of the Puppy Cares.

they look same series yeah.
but I think it is not complete list.. I think?

Hmm... I wonder...
I was not born in 1985, so I don't remember these at all. I'm curious to learn more about them though! I've been keeping a mildly interested eye out during my thrift store travels.
-
I googled it and not much was found. the trade mark document was found as well as few e-bay sells of the brand.. but mainly dogs. Internationa e-bay had a one Puppy care dog and lot of small bears for a small price but in EUR e-bay I found one seller that described them "rare" and sold them for 18€ a piece. Cats I did not see.

I've born 1987 and I remember these. My aunt is only slightly younger than my mom who was 19 when she got me.
I think they were not too popuar in their time?

That must be them. Although they look much cuter in those pamphlet pictures. The combs are different too... But prototype pictures are not to trust, very often the actually produced toys look different.

I was born in 1989, so if they were not popular in their time, then it's unlikely that I would have ever come across them when I was old enough to remember toys. That's really cool that your aunt was able to get you one! They are very cute and they remind me of another little known toy line from the late '90s called Puppy Dog Tails. They were also MLP-like in that they had brushable tails. I had quite a few of them but I have no idea what happened to them.

I agree with the Kitty Care suggestion. They sure are cute!
-
They are a little weird looking, but super cute! I wish I had something like that when I was a kid. XD
-
Gosh, so many replies D:. But thanks for all the contribution.
Wow, makes me feel a bit ashamed not knowing that vodka thing being a finn and all ^^;.
Anyways, I'll have to agree with that kitty care idea. they look really similar. and the clothes seem to be from the series. I also tried to google them but there really isn't that much info about them :/
Though I did find one picture that would confirm that these are Kitty Care toys. And the combs I saw alongside them were like these.
I did not pay that much from these. they are not in so great condition as seen. The two girls with their ribbons cost a bit more seeing as they are in pretty great condition but still paid only 13 € for them. and 9 € for the other six and that lot had three lanards and one bratz pony(Oh how I hate those D:).
Now I really have to bee on the lookout for the Siamese ones :B

Vodka is nott Finlands invention but Finlandia vodka is one of the strongest if it is not the strongest. What Finland did invent are Nokia(the unbrakeble phone!) and Molotov's coctail. Finland also holds World Championship on Airguitar everytime as well as Wifes carrying World Championships. Also I think Finland is home of "Who trows ones cellphone longer" World Championship.
For other grate things I think Finland should be Winland is that on wartime aside of being awsome, we stole Russians tanks by putting pieces of wood to the tiers. After an hour of capture, we used Russians own tanks against them.

Oh yes I already knew that, but didin't know the fact that it's an internet joke. And that stuff I do know also. I actually attended on my history lesson in school.. actually I'm quite an History freak. Alongside the Cellphone throw there's beer barrel, coin, and Boot throw competition, also where I lived for about two years we had this "mac throw competitin", where people thre Apple computers as far as possible. And Xylitols dental benefits were also founded in Finland, even though the chemical was founded by French and German almost simultaneously. And we also have the best marksman in history Simo Häyhä. He didn't use the scope because he didn't like it and it would freeze because of mist from breathing, also on sunny day it would have given away his hiding spot(I could go on forever about him and our history xD)Also IRC (Internet Relay Chat) was invented by a Finn and AIV feed also. and of course one of the most known unimportant(Finnish) celebrity; Johanna Tukiainen xD
And of course we have some of the most awesome bands ever like Sonata Arctica, Old Nightwish, Stratovarius, Tarot etc.
oh that's an great picture btw, even though I've seen it before :D

lol, I see I see.
Well as an internet phenomonenom it didn't live long. Latest internet joke is the Nokia phones.
At first I considered you were just some Hetalia tard saying "uuh I like History because SuxFin Herp Derp" but I see you read more than that : )
I used to love history too but I'm worste ever at remembering years and names.
Oisko sulla muuten G4 McDonalds Fluttershyta? Vaihtaa tai myydä?

Yeah the ghost of the doll Kitty Care list is not complete...
I have some which are not on the list. I think I've actually sent pics of those to ghost of the doll some years ago but they don't seem to add anything else than leaflet pics. Which are not always similar to the real toys.
I have a couple of extra kitties which I could sell if anyone is interested, they're not in the best shape though so they're not expensive :)
Johanna Tukiainen :yikes:
-
OMG I woud love to get a couple of these they are too cute <3

My friends had lots of those kitties back in the 80s and 90s. I liked them but never had any. There are dogs as well. I remember their hair was always a mess, not the best quality or then my friends were not fixing them properly.
And now my mind has been polluted by the thought of Tuksu. I need some vodka to get over this. :drunk:

No blog either, I'm not very computer-oriented :P
I just checked the ghost of the doll Kitty Care page. And noticed something strange. The boy kitties don't have "manes" at all in those backcard/leaflet pics, only tails. They look so different without mane hair.

I noticed that too! I didn't check for a gender difference on the dogs though.
