I have to admit that I have a fairly lukewarm reaction to full-sized
Lalaloopsy dolls. I enjoy looking at them in the stores, and some of the fairy tale dolls are super-sweet, but I have no desire to own any more of these oversized plastic characters. The Lalaloopsy mini dolls and the Lala-Oopsie horses, on the other hand, are a completely different story. The mini dolls have clever themes and adorable faces,
and they come in small manageable packages,
and the dolls are a size that is very easy to display and collect. The Lala-Oopsie horses, despite their obvious resemblance to My Little Pony figures, are wonderful little toys (and pretty
good dancers).
Because of my fondness for the Lala-Oopsie horses and minis, I have gotten into the habit of stopping by the Lalaloopsy aisle in Target and Walmart every now and then, just to see who is there and if perhaps there is a tempting sale. The other day at Walmart, I found an unexpected little cutie: a Lala-Oopsie Sea Horse. There was only one left, an orange unicorn named "Sunstar," but she probably would have been my first choice anyway. I love the color orange.
I figured that before I leave the Virgin Islands, I should give you a peek at Sunstar in her natural habitat:
