S & T 4- Tammy Clones - Marjie, Hong Kong Tammy, Scarlet, Randy, Suzi, or Fi-Fi dolls, clothings, booklets, atricles etc. A brief description from the owner on where they came from.

I do not know the name of this doll, but I remember reading something a long time ago about the European market having a Tammy-like doll made by "Evergreen."  I do not know if this is one of them, but this doll's back is marked, "Evergreen,"  "Made In Hong Kong."  This doll has a light weight blown plastic body that is slightly slimmer than Tammy's. I do not know if the doll's outfit was factory made or lovingly made by an unknown mother, but the 3 piece outfit is exceptionally made.  The clothes have no tags. 

 

This is a blond bubble cut clone with eye shadow. I don't know who this clone is, either.  She is only marked "Made In Hong Kong" in the middle of her back.  But -- The back of her head indicates that it was made from one of the older Tammy moulds. There is a worn faded marks where the "Ideal Toy Corp." BS 12" would have been stamped.  The doll's head itself feels like a rubber material.  The rest of her arms and body feel like a blown type plastic. The doll is wearing an untagged knock off of  Tammy's Capri outfits with a pair of tennis shoes.

SPECIAL NOTE RE HONG KONG TAMMY:  In my last year's post, I mentioned that I had never seen a curly haired Tammy "Made In Hong Kong" before.  Well, last week a very nice Tammy Friend named Lisa shared a picture of her doll with me.  I can't say how thrilled that this nice person shared her picture, as now I can say that curly haired "Made In Hong Kong" Tammy dolls do exist.  I hope Lisa is somewhere at the convention to share information about her doll with Tammy friends.  Lisa has given me permission to use her curly haired doll photo on my web site with an explanation, and I thought it would be good thing to share with the convention before it gets written up online.

9-Custom Creations- remade Tammy or Tammy family member.

Madame du Tammy:  Tammy - BS 12.  This doll may not be considered very special, but of all the Tammy dolls I've cleaned up, and the many I have in queue, this one is special to me because of two things: This all original Tammy has the dark Asian red lips,  big Ash Blond hair.   I do not run across all that many of them.  This is one of four big haired Tammy dolls in my display, and the only one I've come across with Ash Blond hair.
