About this deal

I was surprised and delighted to find these babies in Target just as they were, in their miniature blister packs, displaying everything clearly so that I could inspect for defects and get exactly the ones I wanted.

I think Chester and Apollo would make great bath toys, with their ability to drink and pee, but little Chester was still leaking water out of his mouth when I took that picture, above, which was days after I'd fed him. His costume is ridiculously cute, and his head mold is more versatile than Apollo's since it doesn't have the antennae and crown attachments. It might not be fair to compare Marigold to the other surprise babies, but it's an interesting way of measuring the value of a surprise theme on the current market.In addition, all three of the accessories played a role in the packaging and are great for enhancing play. I didn't really care if they matched each other--or even if they were a perfect match for their parents, but it was such a fun addition to any doll game. A surprise toy with an option that's clearly better than the rest (maybe even advertised as such) is setting kids up for a *bad* surprise, which is the worst. If Mattel had packaged the Skipper Babysitters babies in a blind box so that you didn't know which of the three characters you'd get, and then included five individually-wrapped little plastic accessories, they could have put the dolls into bigger, flashier boxes and advertised them as surprise dolls. But I wanted to see what kinds of mini babies are available on the market today, so I focused on this theme during one of my Target missions.

Brianna's clothing was accented with seafoam green, and all of the Creatable World kids have that color in their packaging. I wish that Marigold had neck articulation, and I wish her mouth and been painted more carefully, but otherwise she's great. Their highly-maneuverable heads are really expressive, and I like that they don't have "bottle mouth" like Apollo. This product for sale is the Baby Born Surprise Mini Babies Mystery Pack Series 1 with Cot and Swaddle.

That feature was a surprise to me, but I don't think it counts as one of the official ten surprises. It used to be relatively hard to find a surprise-themed toy, other than the smaller (inexpensive) blind box assortments. Careful if you do decide to repaint the skipper babies mouth, when I tried it, it made the plastic around the mouth dull, almost like a matte finish?

These 6cm dolls come in a unique swaddle, have their own stackable beds and have movable arms and legs. I don't collect baby dolls in general anymore, so I'm not sure why babies are so appealing to me in a small scale--and especially with a surprise theme. Furthermore, I had a really hard time getting all of the water out of the baby once I'd finished testing the bottle. These mini adventurers, with moveable heads, arms and legs, are available as single dolls or as part of our Minis playsets, there’s over 20 characters to collect!Or perhaps it's just because mini babies are great little toys, either on their own as something to nurture, or as a fun new addition to a doll family. The pattern isn't super-clear (and it disappears again when the diaper is dry), but it looks like the "Lilipads" pattern, which means a September birthday. I don't think any of them will replace my favorite 2000s Barbie babies, but its nice to have cheaper and easier to find options.

My complaint about Gina is they molded her in a way that it looks like she needs a diaper change but you can't do anything because its painted on.
