I am very, very, upset!!!!

What in the heck is this Holly Hobbie in the stores these days???? That is not her!

What in the heck is a Holly Hobbie? I keep seeing reference to it, but what exactly is the darn thing?

Nope, sure isn't! Apparently, this new Holly Hobbie is the original's granddaughter. She's a jazzed up, modernized version (still pretty wholesome and innocent though, thank God!). DD5 thinks she's cool. I'd much rather she play with the new incarnation of Holly Hobbie than any sort of belly-baring, makeup smeared Bratz stripper-in-training.

I used to have Holly Hobbie sheets.

Holly Hobbie is a doll.. She was popular when I was growing up.. I havent seen the new ones yet..

I used to have Holly Hobbie sheets.

Well, I didn't have the sheets, you lucky girl, but I did have the bedspread. And the original style ragdoll. And maybe a metal lunchbox, but I could be wrong about that one.

I used to have Holly Hobbie sheets.

I did, too! And the bedspread and curtains.

Ooooh, Holly Hobbie!! I loved her- I had the sleeping bag, lunchbox, and doll. She was a rag doll with long braids, and she wore a long calico dress and apron with a sunbonnet. I used to think she looked a lot like Laura Ingalls- kind of an 1800's homesteader girl.

The new HH is more of a wholesome version of a Bratz/Barbie doll. I don't see any similarities besides the name.

I like the new Holly Hobbie!! She's a cutie and as someone else said, the granddaughter of the old Holly Hobbie.

I think she is adorable (and, I still have some of my original HH stuff!!).

She has two movies out, and they both teach really good values. The Christmas one is especially cute.

Ihaven't seen the new Holly Hobbie. I am drinking my coffee out of mug with the old Holly Hobbie on it.

 

[PrincessMom2002]

My DD4 likes the new HH. I can guarantee though that she would not like the old HH. Too old fashioned for the kids these days. The DVD's are very appropriate and teach good values.

 

[icebrat001]

Just great, now I have to google to see all the fuss over this doll...

 

[1Prince2Princesses]

I miss the old one, too. I heard a commercial on TV one day and went running to the TV all like "hey, I had one of those!" and stopped short when I saw the new one. It made me sad.

Ahhhh, way to make Michie feel as ancient as she really is.

 

[we3disneygo]

I had one too!! also had the Sunshine Family dolls.....

 

[SC Minnie]

I had Holly Hobbie sheets and the Holly Hobbie game!!!

When I was about 6 my mom did 2 needle point pictures of Holly Hobbie. They are still hanging above the bed in my old room at her house.

I had the wallpaper !!!!
