Mini Update...>>>>

So many questions about these cars so....
Hasbro Sindy car was from 2002/3 is a solid item and retailed at about £35/£40 ($48/$55) and sold in the UK.
The Mattel Ken car is a lot lighter in weight is available now $25/$30 (£18/££25) is available in America and might be sold in other countries at some some?

Now on to who will fit and how they look. My volunteers are ready and waiting

Misaki
 First issue Dynamite Girl
 Second Issue Dynamite Girl
 Poppy
 Pivotal Barbie
 Fashion Royalty

All the ladies fit fine although the seat belt could be a little lower as it cuts through their necks. I'm sure this could be adjusted if I fiddled a little with it?
 Older style Ken fits into the car but there is no way he can grip the steering wheel!
 The more modern (Harley) body has no problem fitting in and can grip the wheel.
 Even the Fashion Royalty Homme can fit into Ken's little car
 Maybe the windscreen could do with being a little 'bigger'? LOL

Now the Hasbro Sindy car (Actually I'm not sure if this is a Hasbro or Vivid car? I guess I had better check that out?)
 Misaki
 Poppy
 First Issue Dynamite
 Second Issue Dynamite
 Barbie
 Fashion Royalty
 Older Style Ken
 (Harley) Style Ken
 Even Fashion Royalty Homme fits AND the lid (roof) goes on!

They do all fit in with the door shut but I just left it open so you could see the dolls better!

    Great comparison post. Oddly enough, the taller lady dolls and all the men dolls look better in the smaller 'no roof' Ken car. They don't seem to have enough head room in the larger Cindy car. I still wouldn't mind having that Cindy car in my collection. But I am not even going there. I have more than enough, unused cars as it is.

Some more wardrobe ideas....  I covered the shoe storage with plexiglass held on with magnets. As you can see there are so many things you can do with this basic idea. Big boxes, small boxes. With rails and/or shelving.

Simple Wardrobes And Storage

I have a TON of doll clothing and after years of rummaging through bags and never finding what I'm looking for or even remembering what I have so I thought it was time I made some quick, simple and cheap storage.  The cheapest is to use a doll box and just fit a bar for hanging but I wanted something just a little more so this is what I came up with.... You will need Foamcore board I used 5mm thick board 60cm x 84cm Foam 2 Foam glue You can use any glue but this works best I think Ruler Tape measure Pencil Something sharp to cut with (craft knife Cutting board I have a big board but a smaller one would work Metal ruler if possible (Helps with cutting a straight line)  The rods are the metal rods from the Integrity Doll stands. They are great as they are adjustable.  All of the above can be found on E.Bay or craft stores I'm giving you the sizes I use but you can make your units any size you wish. Measure 40cm longways mark and cut put other piece of board t

Painting Plastic

I've touch on this before but here I will go through the prose step by step... First up room temperatures. Even before you start if you are going to use spray paint then outside or a well ventilated room is a must. Not hot, not cold and not raining. Oh, and no wind...very important no wind if spraying outside... not an issue if working indoors. Remember the sprays do like to float about a bit and all surfaces need to be covered or use a spray box. This can be just an old cardboard box or something you make yourself. My table in the garden is just for spraying and is well away from the plants etc Another must is a mask, I do a lot so mines a bit fancy (I also have Asthma) but a basic mask from your local DIY would be fine  Spray paints are easy enough to find just look around your local DIY or craft store, there is also E.Bay and Amazon.  Start by cleaning what you want to paint then once dry I always use a primer, they come in three colours white, brown and
