This clone doll is so amazing, she gets her own post.
This doll is Debbie Drake, based on a REAL person! Debbie Drake was the first TV exercise instructor. If that’s not Kitschy, I don’t know what is. This doll is really cheap but has a ton of points of articulation, so you can pose her in lots of different ways. I don’t know what company made this doll. Excuse Miss Mokey back there, she spent 12 years of her life being afraid to go outside, then at age 13 decided she loves to be outside, and thus hops out the door onto the porch any chance that she gets…. also it’s snowing right now! These are old pics.
I REALLY love her.
Here’s Debbie doing her thing, courtesy of YouTube. The doll really doesn’t do Debbie justice.
Oh, and you’re going to LOVE Debbie’s TV living room. Watch it!!

Needless to say, the cat looking on slays me. It’s so Village Of The Giants, a great bad late 60’s film starring Tommy Kirk, Johnny Crawford, and my good friend,Toni Basil, where they took some kind of drug and were looming over everything else in the town. I believe there was a giant cat in there too.
I remember Debbie Drake. I thought of her every time I saw a Little Debbie dessert cake. So pert and sweet!
As I said before, I’m not the world’s biggest Barbie appreciator. But I have to say, seeing her next to all the clones does make me see why Barbie is BARBIE. Though I do love little ice-skating Debbie. She looks like a pin cushion. And that’s shot you took is absolutely fabulous.

Great post.. Debbie is great, I’m surprised they made a Barbie Wannabe with all the articulation, thought it would be expensive?
Always happy to see Barbie, Love Miss Mokey!!
