Love it! Rainbow Brite and Strawberry Shortcake were my biggest loves as a kid. Had the bedsheets, nightgown, lamp, everything I could find. XD Sadly didn't get all of the dolls or even half of the playsets.
Wow i remember having strawberry shortcake as a child and the strawberry little house with a few other dolls. i have a couple miniatures and the carry case.i ever had that same lunch box.too bad they were all stolen along with my vintage childhood clothes and other toys :(.my mom did save all my toys but sadly they got stolen several years ago. oh thank God i have all my cabbage patch dolls those were my favorite! you're doggy is adorable and looks so sweet!
Hi there, thanks for watching! I'm heartbroken to hear that your dolls and other toys were stolen. That's awful! I'm glad you still have your Cabbage Patch dolls. Those babies are so special! My dog is usually wild and crazy, but he was surprisingly calm when I was filming this video. He turns 3 this month, and I think he's finally growing out of the puppy phase, ha ha!
I remember my mom got me a Strawberry Shortcake dress when I was 4 yrs old in the early 2000s. She bought me a plushie, books, notebooks, pens, erasers, etc. She loves Rainbow Bright, Strawberry Shortcake, and Pepe Longstockings. 😅 She made me dress like them
I remember all the neighborhood kids would gather and we would play strawberry shortcake together and the other little girls would get mad I wouldn't play I'd just sit there and sniff the heads the whole time lol 🤣
Thanks Kristy! I couldn't believe he sat there the whole time without trying to snag one of my dolls, lol! He turns 3 years old this month, and he's just now coming out of the crazy "puppy phase." His cuteness is his saving grace, ha!
In 1982, I would have been 17 so I'm not very familiar with Strawberry Shortcake. I remember it through commercials though. It's great how your mom saved your things. It must be great fun seeing your things from long ago. 💖
Hey Bonnie! Sorry you missed out on Strawberry Shortcake, ha! I just wish I could get back that delicious smell they had, sigh. Hope you're having a great weekend!
@@Our80sLife Maybe you could get a perfume that's strawberry scented. You have a great weekend too! Are you on the 80s Cruise Meet & Greet? I don't see you on there. You can get to know people before you go.
You really are a lucky one, my first toy was a glow worm, remember those! I lost all my childhood thing's due to being homeless as a child. And I lost all my teen thing's due to moving so much but at least I have my memories. ❤ So God is good.
Oh Emily, I'm so sorry to hear you were homeless. That's just awful. I do remember the glow worm toys, but I didn't have one. I remember giving one as a gift when my 3rd grade teacher had a baby. She named her baby Abby, and she was my favorite teacher.
Hi Abby oh Th a is so awesome that you still have all your Strawberry Shortcake dolls. That is so nice your mom saved them for you.You have a great collection. Thank you for sharing your wonderful collection. So until next time God Bless you and your family and have a Blessed Weekend and Stay Safe my dear Friends.
Thank you Joan! 🤗 My mom kept so many treasures, and I've been unearthing them as I help my parents clean out their basement storage room. It's actually been a really fun project! Have a wonderful and blessed weekend.
I love your ss collection! What great memories! My ss collection is special to me too! Really love that you still have your lunch box with the thermos! Curious, Did you have the ss board games? They were cute and fun. :)
Thanks so much! My mom was wise to save my old lunchboxes. Yes, I'm pretty sure I had a game and some other things, like Colorforms, etc. Our daughter also grew up loving SS in the early 2000's, and she had a really fun board game as well.
Thank you very much for this video. This is so adorable and sweet like strawberry icecream. I loved He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. Do you remember?
Thanks Bernhard! Yes, I totally remember the Masters of the Universe! My cousin was super into those, and he got a Grayskull Castle for Christmas when I was getting all those Strawberry Shortcake dolls, lol! I'm pretty sure we combined our toys, and the strawberry friends visited the castle that holiday. My cousin was 4 years younger than me, so I was always willing to play with his "boy stuff" to keep him entertained. Next time I talk to him, I'll have to ask him if he still has all his He-Man toys.
Ok, Strawberry shortcake was my absolute favorite toy when I was a kid!! I didn’t have all the dolls though. I had ssc, hucklebery pie, raspberry tart, purple pieman and sour grapes. I had a ton of those little pvc figured. I had a lot of strawberry shortcake nightgowns and I also had a pair of blueberry muffin pajamas. My favorite character is blueberry muffin, although I never had her when I was a kid. I had a strawberry shortcake bike with a banana seat and training wheels. I still have it. It was my first bike I learned to ride. Now, today, I have an explosive vintage strawberry shortcake collection. I have at least one doll of every character and their pets. The berry happy home, a carriage, the blow kiss dolls, games, books, you name it, I probably have it. I will have to make a video of my collection now!! I think I may have already posted one. I’m not sure. I have to check. I’ll send you a link if I did. What one was your favorite smell? Mine was purple pieman. He smelled so good, I wanted to eat him. 😂
Wow!!! I'm so impressed that you have such a huge Strawberry Shortcake collection Melissa! The bike sounds so cute, and the berry happy home is totally awesome! I never had that one, but I had gotten my Smaller Homes dollhouse around the same time, so that's probably why I didn't ask for it for Christmas. You should definitely make a video, I'd love to see your stuff! My favorite smell was the apple one, but seriously they all smelled SO good! Thanks for stopping by and sharing your memories! I always enjoy reading your sweet comments. Hope you have a "berry" fun weekend :)
@@Our80sLife I forgot to mention that I also have an autographed postcard from the creator of Strawberry shortcake, Muriel fahrion! A friend of mine who worked for a toy company got it for me, she wrote my name on the card and drew SSC’s head.
@@Our80sLife I never had apple dumpling when I was a kid, so I missed out on a lot of smells! I have some mint in box dolls but they don’t smell. And the blow kiss dolls, they smell rancid when you squeeze their stomach for a kiss. Their breath smells like rotten pepperoni. 🤮 I’ll definitely make a new video soon if I can’t find my old one.
This is so cute!! I was born in the early 2000’s but I’ve always been attached to the 80’s series! I watched a lot of older cartoons as a kid and even now as a teenager and I always wanted cool stuff like this
Sweet! We recommend checking your local charity thrift shops, church rummage and estate sales to hunt for vintage toys like these. Thanks for watching my video!
I have lots of my toys and strawberry shortcake dolls too😍 I still have the house too and I am 48. I cherish them all as well as my memories. Great times! Thanks for sharing 🙏
Oh wow! Fantastic collection. I adore Strawberry Shortcakes dolls. So cute. The villains are so cool, especially the evil lady with her snake. I have never seen them before.
Thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed seeing my collection. The villains are cool, I agree. I remember that evil lady (Sour Grapes?) was really hard to find back in the day, so it's probably still a bit rare. Anyway, thanks for watching!
what an amazing collection. How lucky you are to have had a parent that cared to save all of your favorite childhood goodies. I bet your mom was totally devoted to you. Great stuff.
im 10 years old and i love vintege toys they are soo cute my mom got me into them i have 14 dolls in todal and i also have 80s care bears so thanks to my mom i love you!!!!
Oh my goodness, that was a blast from the past, lol. I really loved Strawberry Shortcake years ago. Sadly my toys are long gone. Thank you for the memories. Your dog is the cutest🍓❤🐶
@@Our80sLife It's always a pleasure to find lovely channels such as yours to lift my 'upsy downsy' mood- unfortunately I have bipolar. Indeed those delicious smells, lol. Living in the UK in the 80s, it wasn't easy to find all the Strawberry Shortcake toys and such. But we lived near a USAF air base and my mum's friend was from Arkansas, so long story short my SS collection was built. I especially loved my Strawberry pencil case with the yummy accessories Thanks again, all the best 🍓🙂🙏
I think I saw the 2003 strawberry shortcake when i was younger. When I was younger, I used strawberry shortcake names to my family members. I think my dad was Custard.
That is really cool, I have never seen anything more than the title and cartoon intro for Strawberry Shortcake. That is very unique that they are named after food, mostly fruit-flavored desserts. Great toys, I can see why they never go out of style.
Thanks for watching! The Strawberry Shortcake dolls were originated from drawings in a greeting card series created by artist Muriel Fahrion. After making this video, I got a chance to meet her... dream come true!! Here's a link to that video, in case you missed it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pJbl_YbhREI.html
Wonder what would happen if you mailed in the Berry Points today, ha! 😁 Thanks for stopping by our channel and watching my video. Hope you have a "Berry" nice day!
omg your collection is so pretty! Im16 but I really love strawberry shortcake and want to start collecting, but im not sure where to buy from or even how to start, do you have any recommendations??
Thanks Faith! There are reproductions of the original dolls available now, which I've seen at Target. For vintage dolls, try searching Ebay or Etsy. I've also seen them at our local flea markets and estate sales. Good luck, and happy collecting!!
Awesome!! I loved strawberry quick, but I’ve never tried banana. 🍌 I didn’t even know that was a thing, sounds yummy! Thanks for stopping by our channel and watching our videos! 😊
Aww, thanks Sharon! Glad you enjoyed it! In case you missed it, I have another video where I got the chance to meet the creator of Strawberry Shortcake. You might enjoy seeing that one too, here's a link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pJbl_YbhREI.html
I had the gown and the doll of strawberry shortcake I think I had the sheets and comforter Soo many memories I still have the pic of me in the gown from the 80s
I have all of the dolls, the Berry Happy Home with furniture. The only things I don’t have are the trolley, snail cart, bake shop, horse and wagon, and the doll storage case.
So happy came across this video, I myself till this day collect stuff of Strawberry Shortcake,I’m a huge fan,I usually find things in yard sales and flea markets!
Yo. I love this. Thank you. Mid video and I’m checking your playlist and getting ready to smash that subscribe button. Then like. I wanted strawberry shortcake so bad. But. I was a boy. So... it looks like I really missed out... 😞 thanks for the video. ☺️ have a nice day
Aww, thanks Brian! Welcome to the party!! Sorry to hear you missed out on the Strawberry Shortcake craze back in the day! It's never too late! BTW- I've seen a new retro version at Target, so you can make that dream a reality!!
There were six Strawberry Shortcake Prime Time specials, one a year from 1980 thru to 1985. They set the tone for toylines in the 80s as multimedia franchises with cartoons, comics, books etc
Cute Strawberry Shortcake lunch box. I almost got one but I opted for E.T. instead. You wouldnt believe i was just watching this video of a young woman opening a barbie dream house she bought for $6,000. Same one i had as a kid. I used to throw barbie off the top banister. Then ken would rescue her and carry her back up in his arms. Ill never forget how on Christmas it took like 4 adults to put it together. I had this 80s barbie pool too. It had a shower on the back of it that pumped water. That was my favorite toy. Anyway i was looking online hoping to find the one and only cabbage patch kid i had. Too bad, you cant find it since they were all unique. I did see a cabbage patch seat and crib though. That brought back memories.
Oh my goodness!! It's crazy how much some of our old toys have increased it value. $6,000 DANG!! We definitely wish we had kept some of our other toys, especially Keith's original Star Wars action figures. Have you seen the prices on those lately?!
@@Our80sLife no, I haven't. My friend here is the star wars fan too. I saw some barbie dream houses on ebay for a couple hundred I think. She must have got it brand new. To think that a young woman who has no memory attached to it, would spend 6 grand on it. Goes to show that to some people, 6 grand isn't much. Anyway, I only wanted a few little things to remind me of what my mother got me. Strawberry shortcake. E.T. was big hit for me. A cabbage patch preemie with a beige tuft and everything included. I'll never forget that christmas because I found the stash beforehand. I was pretty darn excited. Ill never forget year prior they were hundreds of dollars. This woman bought herself one. And let me "borrow it" for a week. Saying i had to give it back, lol. But she was nice though. At least I have just one toy from my childhood. It's an E T watch. It's finger lit up and played the theme. Well it's on my dresser. Still has the added holes punched to fit my 7 yr old wrist. (Which you cant buy on ebay) Another memory is of this little 80s doll house by Matell. It was called the Littles. Well I'm mad at Ebay because everything gets bid and sold when I'm not looking. Plus, some people are charging as much for shipping. No thanks. I may just get one little doll in a box. Just to hang on a memory. I spend too much time in the past anyway. I could use a house of my own! In 2024! Anyway, congrats on the my little pony for three bucks. Toys really do make for a great childhood memory. Though as an 80s child, not always. Because we actually played outdoors or did other things. Made our own toys. Climbed trees and things.
Sure!! Thanks so much for watching. I've got a fun thrift haul coming out this week that I think you'll enjoy. I found a bunch of neat little Happy Meal toys from the 80s. Stay tuned :)
I wanted that lunchbox, for first grade, but my Mom had already ordered me a different one. I made up my mind, not to like whatever it was, that she brought home, because it wasn't THAT one! LOL. My Grandma bought me a Strawberry Shortcake school bag, though. It still has my maiden name, and, "Grade 1," written inside it.
Oh my goodness!! I don't think I could stand to remove the heads off my dolls, yikes! I'm sure that would work though, if you're brave enough to try it. Thanks for the tip!
Im 45 year old woman still love my favorite doll, its smell, cartoon, tenis shoe, pjs, sleeping bag....😭😭😭😭What about its original Corn Flakes, Yes, the puffy pink balls?
Cool collection did you use watch the strawberry shortcake cartoon? Even though I'm guy I use love watch strawberry shortcake on Saturday mornings back then. I wonder if you liked My little pony cartoon to and do you have any My Little Pony collection to?
Thanks Brian! Yes, I enjoyed the cartoon but for some reason I never got into My Little Pony. It's funny how we're drawn to certain characters and not others. I also loved the Smurfs!
@@Our80sLife yeah that is funny man i love smurfs.This funny a lot my friends use like Power Rangers but I never did I more liked Teenage Mutant Turtles and I was in Stars Wars,Spiderman,Batman,He-Man,Thundercats,Buck Rogers and even though I'm straight guy I use love watching the Carebears to I don't know what happened to it but I use have Care bear doll back then......lol
@@Our80sLife oh another thing I'm still big fan until this is Garfield and Peanuts snoopy is my favorite but I actually like any thing is from Charles Shultz and I'm a big Dr.Seuss fan i still watch a lot of cartoons I grew up with even though I'm grown and adult and I'm big Disney fan I like all older stuff and shows from the 80's and 90's....lol
@@brianmurphy7809 You’re just young at heart, nothing wrong with that! ❤️ Forgot to mention my favorite… Pee-Wee’s Playhouse! I have the complete DVD set and never tire of watching it, ha!
@@Our80sLife That is good to know....lol Yep I am I'm try stay young at heart for as long as I can......lol But when it comes to me going to work and take care business and stuff I'm in the adult mode then ....lol There motto my parents taught me growing up there is place and time for everything you have to do in this world and how you act in life
The original dolls were marked on the back of their heads ‘American Greetings Corps 1979’ and were made by Kenner. First edition dolls had flat hands, and the later ones were curved. These features can help you date the early dolls. Thanks for watching! 🍓
Interesting question. He’s one of the only boy characters, besides Purple Pie Man. But I always thought Blueberry Muffin was Strawberry’s BFF. Your call! Thanks for watching my videos! 😊
@@Our80sLife Thanks for answering! If ever you would pick a girl for Huckleberry, would she be Blueberry Muffin or Strawberry Shortcake? And I mean they would be sweetheart someday 🥰
I've seen the reproduction at Target, and they look quite similar, but I don't have one to compare. I was thinking of buying one just for the smell, lol!
Can you contact me I got a hold of a 40 strawberry shortcake mini figures all different all in the package I think this is something special please help me
That sounds like a great find! I'm definitely not an expert, but if you're on Instagram I'd recommend checking out an account called @CharmingVintageStore. She's much more knowledgeable about Strawberry Shortcake and could probably answer your questions. Congrats!!
