My Dawn Doll Collection

[@lorihampton2378]

First wave Dawn, Angie, Gloria, and Dale. Second wave had Longlocks, Jessica, Gary,Ron and Van as well as Head to Toe Dawn, Longlocks and Angie, the whole lot of them in a Dancing Version [different body]. Made from 1970 to 1973. Topper made lots of other items.

[@dawndolls70]

I have about 75 Dawn dolls.They were my favorite doll ever and I can remember my Mama taking me to Gaylords in 1971 and bought me the Dawn with the wigs.I love them so much.

[@jennifermanns5645]

I had a dawn doll with the blue halter top and white skirt with black go-go boots. I was 9 when my mom ordered her from a Cheerios box. I'm now 61 and I'm glad I found you.❤

[@laurelldockall2399]

I was born in 1959 and I remember loving my Dawn dolls. We were on a limited income so she was quite affordable or I would not have had her. In 1971 we moved back to Canada from California and all of my dolls were given away? I only got a few dolls after that as at 13 my parents thought I should be outgrowing dolls. I would love to have a few of these lovely dolls back in my collection. ❤️

[@patsisota6655]

Many people don't even remember Dawn dolls. I had a bunch. I was born in 1966 and preferred them to Barbie but it seems Barbie too over and that's that. Had to use the Dawn dolls as babies lil sister. Dawn dolls rock!

[@cindysnow8899]

They had 4 original Dawn dolls! Dawn the blonde, Glory the redhead, Angie, the dark brown hair, and Dale the African-American with the afro!! Jessica the stewardess with the short hair and Longlocks had long brown hair down to her butt!! I had all these dolls when I was a kid and I hated giving them up! My older sister and I used to fight over them all the time!

[@jeaninecushion6142]

I'm so grateful someone remembers these like I did....thought I was going crazy for a while bc NO ONE knew what i was talking about

[@LMB925]

These are adorable. Thanks for sharing. I hadn't seen them before. They're going on my watch list. I love mini dolls like these. I played with Dazzle dolls when I was a kid in the '80's. I've since repurchased quite a few of them on Ebay for not much money. I'm going to be watching these. The only ones on Ebay in my budget right now all look like they've been crying with running eye make up. More like they belong in a creepy stop motion after school special.

[@michellestrozyk5732]

I think you’ve done a decent review. I am a long time collector. I own about 1,000 of these wonderful dolls. I still am in need of pieces I don’t have. They are small and a very good substitute for regular dollhouse dolls. They are beautiful dolls that have character! I’m 55 years old and had them as a child.

[@tracyf67]

The first cool (Dawn)...that is definitely the original outfit....I did not have any of these dolls but the girl across the street did and I totally remember that dress on Dawn.

[@darrellwallace8491]

Love your videos! Just subscribed and love this one on the Dawn dolls. I had a huge collection and sold them all in the 90s. Many were in their original boxes. Such a great job talking about these dolls. Their great! Keep up the good work!

[@MRounds143]

Thanks Darrell! I would love to have a collection of Dawn dolls in the box 😍

[@patsisota6655]

Thanks for the memories. I was born in 1966. Love Dawn dolls. Wow just remembered I already posted

[@cindyeisenberg8367]

When I was a little girl, I got a Dawn doll for a Christmas gift. My doll had blond hair. I love the mod dolls. I was able to find one reproduction Dawn in the drug store in the early 2000’s. But, was unable to find her friends. Poor Dawn looks like she fell on her knees. The green looked like bruising.

[@JB-zr8in]

I had a dawn doll that had long black hair not sure what her name was

[@jaquelinehamlett2921]

They are so glam and we'll detailed for the size. We had Pippa in the UK, but they did not have real lashes, and the knees were screw jointed. Overall the clothing was more casual, especially in the early days, but some Dawn fashions ended up in the Pippa line. The Dawn's with updos often get green at the hairline, due to the hair being too fully rooted. As if green knees are not enough to contend with.

[@d7f811]

Wish I still had mine from my childhood the dolls were called pippa in the uk.she had lots of friends and a boy friend and playsets and are really hard to find.😊

[@Iloveflowers2024]

I'm selling my Pippa dolls on Ebay. Pippa, Britt, Emma and Marie. I've had them forever since the 70's and it's time to let them go. They are wonderful dolls and so pretty. But I can't keep them forever. I'm happy for them to go to a collector out there who can put them on display. Better than being in a box like I had them.

[@louisebarrett1372]

Not the same Pippa dolls were made by Palitoy Dawn dolls were made by Topper

[@loriesnoeberger5181]

My 2 sisters and I had them all and the boyfriends lots of clothes presents from 3 grown married sisters. We also loved Malibu Barbie ,Pj.,Francis,Skipper and Ken. You might like them as well.

[@kimmi6151]

They were reproduced later on by Checkerboard Toys

[@kimmi6151]

Enjoyed your video. Love Dawn dolls. They are so cute. There used to be an online community for Dawn collectors called Topper Towers but they eventually shut down. Such a shame because it was so fun.

[@theboysdolls]

I didn't know they were that small!

[@evanorman340]

Yes that is the original dawn doll dress wish I still had all my dawn dolls!

[@krystajustice1608]

Hi Mandi I have dawn , the black doll

[@vervilion]

I believe that tie-dye jumpsuit outfit actually went to a rock flowers doll if I'm not mistaken.

[@loriesnoeberger5181]

They are great dolls

[@AugustBug56]

I understand that you can use pimple cream to draw the color, stains, out of the doll

[@southpark1029384756]

Every place I find them they are expensive, 25.00 and up, one doll and even when they looked chewed up. Flea market 25.00 each. I’d love to have the male dolls and the Jessica. I’ve bought some dolls, but they were all Dawn in different outfits. You have a very nice collection.

[@lunamesser9756]

I have around 20 Dawn dolls and 2 Gary ,I didn't know there was another boy ! Thanks for the video !! I really enjoyed it . One thing I want to ask you ,did you know they made knock off Dawn dolls ? I have 3 I think they all have blonde hair and all have a pair of pink sunglasses attached .😊

[@MRounds143]

Are you talking about Rock Flowers dolls? I have the one with pink sunglasses too 🙂

[@lunamesser9756]

@@MRounds143 I don't know what they are ,someone said they are knock offs of Dawn ,that's what they are called ? They all 3 have the glasses attached where you can pull them down over their eyes.

[@MRounds143]

@Luna Messer Their bodies are different, they have bendable limbs instead of knees that click like Dawn. They were made by Mattel.

[@KrystyneY]

I had the core four Dawn Dolls!

[@Scott-vr7sv]

I have Ron (the boy) and like as you said their legs get very swingy like my Ron’s legs are. If you figure out how to fix that please let me know! Thanks. I also wish that I have Gary but I don’t Ron is my only one and he is very special to me! (:

[@southpark1029384756]

Very nice collection, did I hear you say you gave 5-10 Dollar For each? Every place I find them they are high like 25 dollars or higher for each doll. I would love to have the boy dolls and short haired blonde.

[@loriesnoeberger5181]

I love the shoes and boots.

[@chrissyorourke8036]

You made me love thes Dolls!

[@loriesnoeberger5181]

We had the beauty pagent disco and fashion show the apartment furniture and a blue convertable.

[@loriesnoeberger5181]

They were the best coolest clothes. I bought my daughter the later models not so hot but ok

[@KrystyneY]

Where is Dale. She was in the first group of friends. She was my only African American doll!

[@Whatup779]

Yeah, Ron and Gary look like a couple.

How do you clean and maintain your dawn dolls?

[@ChristaJahn-s6g]

Yes original outfit

[@retro-lady]

I bought a vintage bubblecut barbie and she's got green dots on her ears from her earrings. Can you please tell me how to use CLR to remove the green from her ears? Thank you :o)

[@andrewhamilton4029]

How do they compare to skipper in size?

[@MRounds143]

They're like half the size of a Skipper

[@loriesnoeberger5181]

Enjoy

[@southpark1029384756]

Anyone know if these were ever reproduced?
