For some curious reason I'm seriously considering to order a Ginger Snap plush doll. It's really unusual from me, because I'm really not used to possess dolls and stuff like that. Only that I had plush cats when I was a child, but I got out of the habit since then. Regardless, Ginger Snap is cute enough to consider to have a doll of her.

Actually, RAMChYLD has found the one linked above for me. Either way, I have to wait with the purchase until I get my salary, that is going to happen next week. Until that I'm considering whether to buy the doll at all... Also I've never purchased anything on eBay, but I understand it's an international Vatera, so it's possible that someone else will take the item before me. (I was even afraid to post it here - maybe one of you would take it. Tongue

) Well I leave it to the fate.

What is your opinion on the plush doll anyway?

I used to collect them, of course Tongue

Hence my saavyness in digging out SSC dolls on eBay.

I also happen to know that there are bigger SSC dolls than that, but so far I'm not seeing any listed on eBay. Maybe they'll start showing up when Christmas gets closer.

I have an Orange Blossom plush doll in the same style as the above Ginger Snap doll. She's very cuddly and perfect for snuggling with while sleeping and going to sleep at night. Yes, I am a grown woman who snuggles with dolls on some nights. My husband thinks this quirk is adorable, so GOOD FOR HIM! :lol:

Although I told on IRC, maybe someone missed. I actually went on to order this doll, and I paid it since then, and eBay says it's already on the way. I am so excited! Though I should forget about it, because it'll take forever to arrive... weeks. It would be better if I wouldn't think about it, just get surprised when I actually get it. Smile

I received my Ginger Snap doll... actually it happened on 21 Oct... for those who missed the topic on the IRC channel. But I just took the time to finally take pictures of her. Wink

Something I really like about my Ginger Snap, is that it's balanced so that it can actually sit straight without being propped up.

No cheating - there's really nothing behind her that would hold her back!

She can even sit on my hand:

Finally, here's a picture with Ginger Snap, my sister's doll, and our cat (everything's better with cats, after all Wink

):

What actually impresses me is that the cat seems fine being used as doll bench. In my country cats are rarely kept as pets, and most cats I see run away when approached.

Maybe my Orange Blossom is not in the same style as your Ginger Snap. Orange doesn't sit up like that. Hm.

A lot of cats in my country are pets, and a lot are not. They vary in temperaments like all animals. Cats who are raised by caring humans are very different from cats who live on the streets, although there are exceptions both ways. A few stray cats want attention. A few more house cats run away from everyone.

I collected LOTS of stuffed toys and some dolls... But sadly... I have no Ginger Snap... Sad
