I’m selling my whole collection soon and I honestly don’t know how to part with this girl. Anybody recognize her? Yes, that’s a bib she’s wearing, and a pacifier in her mouth. See additional photos for scale shown next to Italy Seashell, as well as the markings on her base. No, those markings aren’t indecipherable because of the picture, they’re indecipherable because they are unfortunately indecipherable. It says 1988, but googling “1988 purple unicorn baby vinyl” or any variation of that...doesn’t work, lol!

Aw she’s a cute little fakie :satisfied: Is it a bank? That last photo looks like a stopper in a piggy bank

It does look like a bank. I’ve never seen that one anywhere before. Good luck!
 
I used to have refillable shampoo and lotion containers with a similar plug on the bottom. If there isn't a slit large enough for coins, it might be for something like that. (Sadly, they didn't survive my last move...)

Yeah, I just love her but the base she’s on is attached to her, like glued? And it seems like she was possibly actually attached by that base to another toy, or even maybe a piece of baby furniture, like maybe a mobile or high chair. Plus, no coin slot.

That’s a possibility I hadn’t thought of, she seems like she had previously been attached to another toy or piece of baby furniture by that base, but maybe a shampoo bottle instead. And yes, unfortunately no coin slot.

Thanks!

Ah well no coin slot definitely rules out it being a bank lol
