errrrrrrmm I saw you were doing toy showcases and thought maybe you could help me find a toy I had when I was younger but I cannot seem to find it for the life of me since you seem to be somewhat educated in stuff like that

the toy in question was like a small Victorian style house, maybe like 2-2.5 inches tall, it was made of hard plastic and I vaguely remember it being kinda party themed? It had pinks blues and yellows but they were really muted. I also remember a tall staircase inside it. I don’t think it was a Polly pocket because it was too small for that but there’s still a possibility, and it could open up showing off the inside and it was very cute, but I can’t seem to find anything even remotely close to it, I have very few memories of it so this is about all I remember.

it would be so hype if you know anything about this because it’s been clawing and eating at my mind for YEARS

thank yew :3

THIS IS SO COOOOL Ive never heard of anything directly like this but this is so cool it’s like something I feel like I’d come across but only in vague memory

Here are some things I found! If you’re thinking it may have been a Polly pocket thing this website has an archive, and I found the years of 1993-1995 and 1999 have a lot of buildings and houses. But ofc u can check the rest of the website out too

www.onlypollypocket.com

The other thing I could think of is the calico critters house sets. I don’t think I ever owned any of them myself but it’s a possibility. This website has a lot I’d recommend looking at the houses and structures part

Aside from that, just searching I found a playskool house and 2 fisher price houses. They do all seem a bit big tho. And here’s a website for fisher price archive and playskool!

Come visit This Old Toy, the world's largest and best source for antique, collectible, and vintage Fisher Price toys, playsets, and pieces..

This is all I can rlly think of at the moment, as sadly idk if I’ve ever actually seen this toy before :( but also other brands like Barbie houses and LPS houses and such are a possible bet. I wonder if you can remember if the house came with any figures? Or if it seemed like a 90s toy or a more modern one. But this is so cool thank u for sharing this!!!!! And hopefully if these aren’t the toys this gets out and someone who may know it can help find it!!!

What time frame are we talking OP? here's a few things that came to mind for me:

starcastle sets? The locket series specifically would have been very tiny, probably the 2-3inches if i remember correctly. the brand is trendmaster, if theyre in this brand any of them will look vaguely familiar I think. the bigger castles were about 6 inches tall with polly pocket figures and some came with these mini lockets pictured above. this one is a wedding cake, I couldnt really find "Party" but theyre all these kinds of colors. there were also teacup series which were a little bigger than this one I think. Shopkins had a line called Lil Secrets that are smaller than polly pocket sets. not sure about victorian style though.. Polly Pocket also honestly is such an expansive line, they do have houses and theres a lot of knock offs.

this brand is called Lovely Kitty. the outside is just plain though. the muted colors match your description I think? Some others to maybe look into were My Little Fairy Tale, Bettys Club, Bluebird Forever Friends, Twinkle pacts, Small World Pocket Paradise, Pretty Pixies. I think Puppy in my Pocket had little sets too.

"Inch the worm is small but proud and likes to wear these colors loud Inching forth both near and far to let you know how loved you are!"

The main reason why I opted for the Create a Monster body and not Venus body is because the tail hole meant I could sculpt a custom shell onto a wooden dowel and have it be removable for doll clothes.

I did debate on wholly recreating the gown and shell body of the prototype but I figured if I was making these full scaled dolls, I would readjust the designs so they would fit better with the fashion doll play aesthetic.

For the bug girls, I really wanted them to wear some of my favourite Monster High pieces so I did try to keep in mind in making them as easy to dress as possible.

I really liked Catrine's dress as the lines feel like an abstracted slime trail and the pink CAM Blob girl shoes contrast nicely with her green skin.

I'm really happy how she turned out because I was really captivated by her design even if I tweaked it to more my own tastes.
