Jackie, the Polly Pocket advent calendar from last year seems like it's more interesting and has a bit more activity to it. Its of course more in price since it's from last year, but could be something to look into if you want a more impressive one. This year's calendar looked so disappointing.
I wad also gonna comment that! In the 90s Polly Pockets were the tiny ones, but in the 2000s they were larger dolls with rubber clothes, and that's what I had. I even had a little car for mine!
Polly pockets is a brand with two different doll size. There is the classic compacts with the interactive playsets and tiny figurine and those which are just "Polly" (not pockets). Those are dolls and not figurines, they come with removable rubber clothes and accessories and bigger playsets. Both are they're unique style, they still make the compacts versions that you thought you were getting. They're just two different products ;)
These ones are more like the early 2000’s ones that I grew up on. As an autistic child, the rubber clothes were very satisfying to fidget with. I also remember playing games on the website, specifically the dress up game they had. I used to spend hours playing on that site!
I also had these growing up. I have fond memories of going to a friend’s house and playing with them in her little 3ft pool. They were perfectly water safe. 😊
Ah I remember those polly pockets! When I was like 5-6 ish (21 years ago) I had a lot of these and yes, their clothes and Accessoires were made of rubber back then! I think they‘re trying to go back to the Retro pollys with the Mystery Boxes! I love that!
I am showing my age with this, but I remember playing with Polly Pocket when it was the tiny plastic cases, and I had a very large collection of Polly Pocket rubber clothing and doll collection growing up. I had all kinds of players for it, the car, the shopping mall, the pet store...so many!
Same. I collect the Vintage Compacts but they also did Pollyville (the houses and towns) and then the larger rubber Polly etc and then the newer compacts but with the split legs. She's been through so many phases
I remember those 😊, I didn't have them myself as they didn't interest me, however I had friends who had them and loved them, I just thought they were a waste of money 🙈 I mainly played with Lego and I read a lot, I always loved my books, still do love reading and have a library at home so nothing has changed much in over 40 years lol 📚😃 but yes I was that weird kid sat in the corner reading books showing zero interest in toys 🙈🤣 however as a adult I do collect geeky toys from star wars, harry potter etc and of course I collect books, I really don't want to know how much I've spent on collectable books over the years,😳 all I know is my bank account hates me 🙈🤣
10:15 they kind of switched in 2001, from having a pocket-sized environment to a pocket-sized doll. So it's no longer the environment that fits in the pocket, but the doll itself and growing up I used to do that all the time and I would put the doll in my pocket and carry her with me.
@@zootastic698 I used to do the same thing until the day I thought I had lost my favorite one . I found her some months after ....was in the pocket of one coat 😅
These first two Polly’s are more like the mid 2000s version of Polly, which me and my younger sister were obsessed with. The rubber outfits are meant to be just a little big to make it easier to put on & off. Polly has always fought the “this is a choking hazard” battle, so I think them making this doll just that much bigger is there way of trying not to have everything as small. As far as the background “set” a lot of the mid 2000s dolls didn’t come with a set, the ones I think of specifically is the multiple princess lines they had that didn’t have anything. So even though these “bags” are boring it’s at least something, and it gives people the opportunity to customize it! Kid me also wonders if it’s still just as satisfying chewing on the clothes as it was when I was a kid 😂😂 I know like minded individuals are out there 😂😂
The early 2000s dolls were so cute. I had a best friend that would trade with me. We mixed and matched the outfits and accessories. And that was the best part! I had the shell house and she had a square house and we would pretend that they were neighbors. I will say I think the polly pockets were better than then they are now.
Back in my day, I had a huge star shaped Polly Pocket case. It inside was like a little amusement park and it really lit up! It had a ferris wheel and they could stand in an area where they could dance around. There were also a bunch of little seats for them to sit. It was magical and I loved that thing. This is so boring in comparison!!
Even though these are much bigger than the Polly Pockets I had growing up, the nostalgia still hits so hard. As soon as you mentioned the “rubber” style clothing, I felt the nostalgia rushing back.
I HATEEEE the bigger Polly pockets 😩 gimmie the tiny choking hazard with the overwhelmingly detailed case or nothing. But I'm glad these giant Polly's have their own fans haha ❤
Bluebird toys were under 1". when Mattel bought the company increased the size to 3". I feel Mattel lost the point of polly pocket and worlds fitting into a child's pocket.
Polly pocket was always super tiny originally but in the 2000s they were discontinued for a short time due to choking hazards and were rereleased a few years later as 3 inch dolls. They didn't get tiny again until about 10 years ago
Amen! We even had a classic Polly Pocket "Party" board game. Each character had a little car it snapped into, and you had to drive around to different people's parties to collect different colored balloons. First person to collect a balloon from each party wins!
Ahhh pollys rubber clothes 😂 our chocolate lab we had growing up LOVED to chew on em. We always knew when she had one cause she would roll on em and chase em across the floor like a cat.
My daughter has a huge polly pocket collection... she started with the original minis and moved to the 3 in dolls... the clothes are great she can change them herself and as a mom you know how wonderful that is!!!
These first two mystery boxes gave me instant Betty Spaghetti doll vibes especially with the rubber clothing lol😂 I do however remember when Polly Pocket started and my little sister had one of the original tiny sets. I think when they relaunched they were more concerned with choking hazards so they upsized everything a bit to avoid this.
Polly pockets were like this in the early 2000s and I loved mine! I used to spend hours choosing outfits. I think the whole gimic of the bigger polly pockets was to dress them up, I think the sets you opened are more like a wardrobe ? Instead of an interactive compact like the older ones. I guess if you collect them all you can put all of the outfits in one wardrobe to mix and match
7:18 so this size of doll for polly pocket started in 2001 to today. And I find that I prefer the 2001 to 2006 style more than the current dolls because they had smaller heads, and were not as top heavy. The rubber clothes are also a thing that they have had around ever since 2001, they did at one point try cloth as well so sometimes you can find cloth, Polly pocket clothes out there, but they kind of threw that idea out and just went back to rubber, I believe because of the cost of making cloth clothes for a small doll
I'm sorry you can't beat the 80's/90's Polly Pocket, I had a few different sets including a money box and clock! There was jewelry ones as well (necklaces and rings) so that you could take your fav one with you.The modern one was resized due to health and safety (choking hazard) just goes to show common sense is dying out!
I even had a pair of sneakers that had a tiny clear compartment on the sides with a polly in it. When I grew out of the shoes my mom had to cut it open, so I could keep the polly XD
The reason shes so big is bc in the series٫ she is a normal human being but that neclace that she came with is acctualy her grandma's locket and when she says a specepic word(s) that I forgot what it was- she turns tiny. so the small ones are her when shes tiny and those types of ones are when shes not using her locket to be human size. Also the characters are all from the series. hope this helps and you see it ❤🧂🦝❤
Oh Jackie, this is exactly what this generations polly pocket is nowdays. The advent calendar is cool. The gems should open that pink box, stick the pokey part into the slot and it should open. Unfortunately, your lack of polly knowledge has made this video incredibly salty. I appreciate your opinion, I am a very big fan. I consult your channel before I buy my kids ANYTHING. But, I think you treated this one a little too harsh. My opinion. Anyway, thanks for being you and opening this! My daughter will love it.
I prefer the bigger polly pockets with the rubber clothes those are what i had growing up. I do wish they were as interactive as the mini ones, but i liked dressing them up
I had these type of polly pockets (rubber clothes style) back around 2004-ish,, to organise everything I had a plastic tool box with one of those removable layers. I was such a stickler about how it was organised, and when my mom decided i had grown out of the toys they gave it all to my younger sister. she then proceeded to lose/break/tear pieces and never kept them organised, and i remember it dealing psychic damage to me all the time seeing what had happened to it lol 😵💫😭
When I was younger, these larger Polly pockets were the ones we had. Polly pocket water sets- and Polly pocket suction cup wall sets! They have both versions, which is why the front of the box displays size. They still make the tiny houses with interactive environments. :-)
My daughter was born in 1987, put her at the age when they were really popular, I remember buying the tiny poly pockets for her whenever we went out shopping. Love ❤❤ you and your channel Jackie ❤~Gina
I had the original polly pockets and they were so much better. I wish I still had them. The pocket sized feature was the best part so u could take it out with you
I love this product, its so nostalgic for me! I was absolutely a rubber clothes chewer lol! I just wish Jackie would have taken a bit of time prior to the unboxing to see that this is a variety of Polly Pockets. I thought it was a bit unfair to compare it to the original miniatures when it’s clearly not meant to be comparable to those. I totally agree that the environments could be a bit more interactive/ different!
Im from Brazil and my whole childhood had been with big polly pockets in rubber clothes. In the 2005 the try to make a magnetic version but was a disaster. Just now that they are bringing back the classic version that I discovery why they are call pocket. never knew
I have the distinct memory of four little glittery jeeps for polly pocket with rolling wheels that I would just TORMENT our kitchen with. I also that I had some glittery Disney princess dresses for them. I only remember that, because the glitter was the only outfits I wouldn't chew on XD
My daughter’s Polly were half that size. They had the rubber clothes. They truly weren’t able to fit in my pocket. Then a smaller version came around and they had magnets on their feet. You would play with them in their little house. The smaller ones you couldn’t change your clothes. They were actually rubber themselves.
Jackie you should bring back the Japanese food kits, I enjoy watching you review them and I know many others do❤I’m a huge fan of yours as I have been watching your channel for more than 5years. Please could you do more of the Japanese food kits and also BRING SIKA BACK PS gran😃
So there is a polly pocket show now the necklace makes her into the mini version you know and love lol... those are just the closest they have interactive houses for the big and small dolls too
I'm surprised that Polly pocket is going larger size, meanwhile Barbie has miniature figurines now. I have 4 mini Barbies for my own custom projects and those are taller than Polly pocket used to be, but the idea is same. They also have mini boat, car or house to choose from and mini versions of the color reveal and the plushy costume versions that come with tiny tiny animal with it. I got the unicorn, where the head of the costume also comes off! I love miniature stuff.
What I remember thé most about PollyPocket : are my 2 daughters singing " pololololy Polly we like to have some fun" is was a Little box and polly sang . My daughters sang this on and off for giggles for a few yearsssss ! Glad I have two grandsons now lolll I did enjoy buying all these fun girlie toys . Thé clothes were also made of rubber 20 years ago ;) Bisous ma belle merci pour tes vidéos, ça m'amuse !
My memory of polly pocket was my childhood best friend being absolutely obsessed with polly pocket and not letting me touch any of her polly pocket toys
The vintage Polly pocket in the 90s are still so much better imo. It's not only nostalgic but it's more interactive. I remember having the heart shaped one.
I had a Polly Pocket from 1994. Now it's considered vintage but it was one of the heart shaped little houses, it was a nursery. It was the only thing I would play with for a whole year. Course we didn't have a lot of toys to begin with but i loved that thing.
I had Polly Pockets, two of the 90s one where you have a small box in a shape with an environment inside and a 2000s one with a big cruis ship. I loved it so much
I think they changed the size of Polly Pocket to be bigger instead of itty bitty so the girls could change the clothes cuz the tiny ones you couldn't change the clothes. I mean making them a bit bigger then they were able to create clothes for them, so now you can dress them how you want
The only Polly Pocket themed toy I had growing up with was a Polly Pocket Locket necklace that used to belong to my sister & a McDonald’s Happy Meal toy when I was a kid, that’s what I had growing up with 🥰🥰🥰
Polly pocket was orginally made by blue bird toys. It was bought by mattel in 1998. Mattel mainly sells fashion dolls. Polly pocket was not a fashion doll. So mattel made them bigger and rebrand them to sell them as fashion dolls. The ones you have now look slightly different than the ones we owned around early 2000’s. But same size and same concept clothes.
I immediately clicked when I got the notification!! Gosh I just love your vibe Jackeh❤!! Why did the pants coming off made me laugh so hard tho 😂😂 RiP the og pollies
I have one when i was 5 and then one of my classmates put a lizard egg inside of it and then when i got home there was little tiny lizard parts everywhere that was not fun.. love your videos !!❤
I used to have Polly pockets just like these just slightly smaller. The rubber is so you can easily take off the clothes without ripping them or breaking the doll, and yes gentle fingers are needed
Early 2000s, my mom would help me set up my polly world (I had a cruise ship, houses, etc) and it would take so long city planning and drawing roads on paper that I would be exhausted before even playing with them! My mom wpuld leave the world up for days so I could have time to play and then we'd do it all over again a few weeks later for years and years. I also remember playing her salon and gardening game on the website and its a big reason I fell in love with gardening!
I had some kind of Polly Pocket house with secret compartments that popped up, that was fun... But more than Polly Pocket, I loved the Pound Puppy playsets! They had miniature dog characters in a mini environment 😍🐶🐶
@@timbobshe I had forgotten it, but this video triggered the memory 🥹 My brother had the Pound Puppy Van! (I had a mini gym / olympics playset: the dogs could ski down a hill or do high-jump ⛷)
my grandmother (the woman who rescued me from my birth parents and raised me as if i was her own child) always got me Polly Pockets stuff growing up. im 37 now and still have some around.
Jackie it's so cute watching you discover Polly's clothes are rubber! I've been a long time fan and I had a few coats of Polly's that I liked to chew on back in the day 🤤
I grew up in the 90's and early 2000's with Polly being that size. I loved the rubber clothes and slightly bigger environments. I had, and still have, the limo and concert sets. You can still put her in your pocket, I did. I'm actually surprised they've brought her back, because they returned to the tiny ones in 2011 or so. Tbh,these environments remind me of the McDonald's Polly. The ones I grew up with were at least painted.
I grew up with the bigger Polly’s and that is my childhood! Everything is so nostalgic and the clothes was my favourite part, the texture how easy it was to put on and off the dolls. Now this makes me what to buy some for myself lol❤️❤️
I had a few polly pocket sets, and one was a jungle zip line themed one, where each character you got could ACTUALLY zip line down the whole thing, there were a bunch of other cool things, but the coolest was that the polly pockets hair changed colour with hot/cold water!
I feel like my polly pockets in the 2000s were slightly smaller than this size. My sister and I had a lot of the play sets, some of my favorites were a water park with glittery dolphins, a purple poodle, some cars, and a horse trailer. Some of mine had combable hair and some (probably the ones with pools) had plastic hair. I feel like the faces were a lot different than the ones you opened today. Disney had similar dolls too so I had some princess polly pockets too, kept the disney stuff together in the traveling case so idk if they were the same size I remember thinking it was weird that the McDonalds Polly Pockets had hard plastic snap on clothes, still cute though
My sisters had a bunch of the rubber doll clothes when I was little! And my favorite thing as a little grain was chewing on those rubber clothes! Such a good texture XD lmao
OMG, those are exactly like the polly pockets I had growing up! The rubber clothes were always fun to play with (even if some pieces did tear if you were a little bull in a China shop like me 😅). I remember my sisters and I had a ton of them, my favorite being a mall play set with a little food court and hair salon. It even had this changing room thing that you put the doll in and it spun around. Gosh, I haven't thought about these toys in years! Thanks, Jackie, for bringing back those treasured memories. ❤
I remenber a toy line from poly pocket where they had exchangable rubber clothings, and the dolls were a tad smaller than that one you have, and alot more movable. My sister still has the dolls stashed away in a box like a treasure and sometimes she takes them out so we can reminisce on them XD I also still have the original poly pockets with their small houses. I dont have many, but i still have them, even the oens made with the disney princesses.
I had a set in the 2000s where the dolls were rubber with magnetic hands and feet. They had a whole playhouse and everything, and were my FAVORITE! One day I took them somewhere with me, and I forgot them in the car because I had stuck them to the metal part of my seatbelt. Once I remembered, I ran out to get them and they had melted and warped into the positions they were in 😩 I BAWLED
For the calendar, 20th was the pink present box. I loved my Polly Pocket that I had when I was a kid, at 90's. If i remember right, I might have two, or maybe the other one was my little sisters :D
OMG I MUST GET THEM THEY ARE BACK AAAH i used to collect those exact type of polly pocket! But they got discounted in my country and never saw them again THEY EXIST AGAIN IM SO HAPPY I need to go get them so i get more clothes to my current ones omg x3 (im 21 and my 12 self is so happy rn)
I collect the little Pollys! I just ordered the advent calendar yesterday for $16 I've been eyeing it for years. I'm not a fan of the bigger pollys (i think those are pollyville?) But I believe shes got 3 sizes now
In 2002 a friend of mine had the Glitterific Botique. You got to put glue over the clothes, place them on a coat hanger to put in the closet. You had to block a hole that had a button, this button turned the fan on in it that dried the glue as glitter was pushed around the clothes.
One of my core memories with polly pockets was finding out that other kids chewed and ate the clothing😅 But polly pocket was one of my favourites. My grandma got me a couple of the classic ones. I remember one having a farris wheel and hot air balloon. Then my mom got me polly pockets with the rubber clothes, one was shaped like a purse. They were my favourite and some of my favouritw memories. My mom may have been a single mother but her and my family really looked after me
Omg I love this 🥹 brings so many memories back ❤ As a someone who’s from 1999 the Polly pockets that i grew up with were actually also a bigger size! My older sisters had the tiny ones with the cute little houses 🥰
when I was a kid in the 2000s I had a bunch of the Polly Pockets with the rubber clothes. Those were my Polly Pockets. I loved them I wish I had kept them!
Polly Pockets came out when I was a preteen/teen. They were really, really, really small and came in an environment that fit in the palm of your hand. I like the ones from back in the day rather than what they sell now.
Me and my sister were obsessed with polly pockets we had a 50 gallon container full of them and we would cover out entire bedroom floor and create and entire town of our own and everytime we had enough to make the town different every time we played with them.
i had tons as a kid, i loved them, still have a few i think, as childhood keepsakes, my favourite was a ice palace, the dolls would 'skate around' if you toggled a switch.
I wish I still had my original Polly Pockets from the early 90s… I got the 40th anniversary one from my local Mattel store earlier this year…. I actually want the advent calendar… I have the Monster High and Friends Polly Pockets. I want to find The Addams Family one. I have a couple other little Polly Pockets. And I have the strawberry milk one you opened.
Omg childhood memories with polly pocket! I used to watch the Polly pocket shows growing up when I was a small grain, 5:18 is Polly from the 2018 cartoon series I believe, not Polly in her miniature size, the choking hazard ones that are childhood memories are the best 😭🫶
Thank you for all your hard work,Jackie=) And thank you , grains, who commented about Polly Pocket more=) It was so interesting to read=3 Wishing you all a lovely weekend=3

Hi, NerdE
Hi Jackie day 9
Btw poly pocket is a TV show
Jackie, the Polly Pocket advent calendar from last year seems like it's more interesting and has a bit more activity to it. Its of course more in price since it's from last year, but could be something to look into if you want a more impressive one. This year's calendar looked so disappointing.
I got it and i used ur code!!
In the 2000s I had Polly pockets that bigger size as well. And some people would chew on the rubber clothing 😂
Thank you, was coming to comment this
Loved those as a child
I wad also gonna comment that! In the 90s Polly Pockets were the tiny ones, but in the 2000s they were larger dolls with rubber clothes, and that's what I had. I even had a little car for mine!

Technically they are pocket sized just not as compact as the original.
@@JayofallTradesdidn't they stop making the mini ones for choking hazard??
I'm kinda tired of Jackie doing reviews with 0 research before
@@beckahalvarez702 I think they made it a tiny bit bigger than the og ones. I definitely saw some of the new ones in store 🤔

I LOVED Polly Pocket as a kid because chewing on the clothing was such a good stim.
As a fellow autistic, I wasn’t allowed to have them. I was what you call a mouth explorer. And he clothes were a choking hazard 😅
The early 2000s Polly Pockets had my heart! I’m so glad to see they are still around and that they still have the bigger versions

My friends an I loved the 3inch dolls. We would bring them to school t recess and play. We would also trade!
The original polly pocket that had a round bottom to snap into the cases is when they were the best.
Amen! We even had a classic Polly Pocket "Party" board game.
Each character had a little car it snapped into, and you had to drive around to different people's parties to collect different colored balloons. First person to collect a balloon from each party wins!
Ahhh pollys rubber clothes 😂 our chocolate lab we had growing up LOVED to chew on em. We always knew when she had one cause she would roll on em and chase em across the floor like a cat.

My niece loves polly pocket and I had no idea they had an advent calendar! I just bought it off Amazon for $14 USD! 🎉🎉 Thanks Jackie! 💜
I'm sorry you can't beat the 80's/90's Polly Pocket, I had a few different sets including a money box and clock! There was jewelry ones as well (necklaces and rings) so that you could take your fav one with you.The modern one was resized due to health and safety (choking hazard) just goes to show common sense is dying out!
I even had a pair of sneakers that had a tiny clear compartment on the sides with a polly in it. When I grew out of the shoes my mom had to cut it open, so I could keep the polly XD
I agree 1989-1992 the one with the magnets were cool you could make them move and they were tiny. Common sense is so rare now it is scary.
The reason shes so big is bc in the series٫ she is a normal human being but that neclace that she came with is acctualy her grandma's locket and when she says a specepic word(s) that I forgot what it was- she turns tiny. so the small ones are her when shes tiny and those types of ones are when shes not using her locket to be human size. Also the characters are all from the series. hope this helps and you see it ❤🧂🦝❤
Oh Jackie, this is exactly what this generations polly pocket is nowdays. The advent calendar is cool. The gems should open that pink box, stick the pokey part into the slot and it should open.
Unfortunately, your lack of polly knowledge has made this video incredibly salty.
I appreciate your opinion, I am a very big fan. I consult your channel before I buy my kids ANYTHING.
But, I think you treated this one a little too harsh. My opinion.
Anyway, thanks for being you and opening this! My daughter will love it.
I COLLECT POLLY POCKET!!! I’ve been collecting for many years and have a ton of of the vintage ones!! I recently picked up the Addams Family one!!
Gasp. There’s an Addams Family Polly pocket ????? Quick, must spend my money
@ yes!!! I haven’t seen it in stores but I saw it earlier on Amazon or you might be able to get direct from Mattel!!
I prefer the bigger polly pockets with the rubber clothes those are what i had growing up. I do wish they were as interactive as the mini ones, but i liked dressing them up
I had these type of polly pockets (rubber clothes style) back around 2004-ish,, to organise everything I had a plastic tool box with one of those removable layers.
I was such a stickler about how it was organised, and when my mom decided i had grown out of the toys they gave it all to my younger sister.
she then proceeded to lose/break/tear pieces and never kept them organised, and i remember it dealing psychic damage to me all the time seeing what had happened to it lol 😵💫😭
The only Polly Pocket I ove are the really tiny ones from the 80s - 90s. When they made the dolls a little taller I was like NOPE.
Agreed haha
Ditto! If it's not a clamshell where you have to be paranoid that you lost the tiny accessories/dolls, it's not a Polly Pocket!
I just bought my daughter the tiny ones for Christmas. They still make them 😊
The really tiny ones were awesome!
Same! As soon as I saw they got bigger I was... eww no
When I was younger, these larger Polly pockets were the ones we had. Polly pocket water sets- and Polly pocket suction cup wall sets! They have both versions, which is why the front of the box displays size. They still make the tiny houses with interactive environments. :-)
My daughter was born in 1987, put her at the age when they were really popular, I remember buying the tiny poly pockets for her whenever we went out shopping. Love ❤❤ you and your channel Jackie

Chewing on the clothing was the best part of owning polly pockets
I too was a rubber chewer
I had the original polly pockets and they were so much better. I wish I still had them. The pocket sized feature was the best part so u could take it out with you
"pollution pocket" 😂
Okay, but Jakie does not disappoint because they post almost 2 - 3 times a week which is crazy! Thanks for your time and work Jakie!
I love this product, its so nostalgic for me! I was absolutely a rubber clothes chewer lol! I just wish Jackie would have taken a bit of time prior to the unboxing to see that this is a variety of Polly Pockets. I thought it was a bit unfair to compare it to the original miniatures when it’s clearly not meant to be comparable to those. I totally agree that the environments could be a bit more interactive/ different!
Im from Brazil and my whole childhood had been with big polly pockets in rubber clothes. In the 2005 the try to make a magnetic version but was a disaster. Just now that they are bringing back the classic version that I discovery why they are call pocket. never knew
Thank you for buying it so I don’t have to!
I have the distinct memory of four little glittery jeeps for polly pocket with rolling wheels that I would just TORMENT our kitchen with. I also that I had some glittery Disney princess dresses for them. I only remember that, because the glitter was the only outfits I wouldn't chew on XD
My daughter’s Polly were half that size. They had the rubber clothes. They truly weren’t able to fit in my pocket. Then a smaller version came around and they had magnets on their feet. You would play with them in their little house. The smaller ones you couldn’t change your clothes. They were actually rubber themselves.
Jackie you should bring back the Japanese food kits, I enjoy watching you review them and I know many others do❤I’m a huge fan of yours as I have been watching your channel for more than 5years. Please could you do more of the Japanese food kits and also BRING SIKA BACK
PS gran😃
So there is a polly pocket show now the necklace makes her into the mini version you know and love lol... those are just the closest they have interactive houses for the big and small dolls too
I'm surprised that Polly pocket is going larger size, meanwhile Barbie has miniature figurines now. I have 4 mini Barbies for my own custom projects and those are taller than Polly pocket used to be, but the idea is same. They also have mini boat, car or house to choose from and mini versions of the color reveal and the plushy costume versions that come with tiny tiny animal with it. I got the unicorn, where the head of the costume also comes off! I love miniature stuff.
You and kitty editor make a great team, The sound effects and extra visuals are everything❤
What I remember thé most about PollyPocket : are my 2 daughters singing " pololololy Polly we like to have some fun" is was a Little box and polly sang . My daughters sang this on and off for giggles for a few yearsssss ! Glad I have two grandsons now lolll
I did enjoy buying all these fun girlie toys . Thé clothes were also made of rubber 20 years ago ;)
Bisous ma belle merci pour tes vidéos, ça m'amuse !
My memory of polly pocket was my childhood best friend being absolutely obsessed with polly pocket and not letting me touch any of her polly pocket toys
The vintage Polly pocket in the 90s are still so much better imo. It's not only nostalgic but it's more interactive. I remember having the heart shaped one.
Love ❤️ how you shout out other creators and show them nothing but positivity ❤ we all should support others like that...
I remember the early 2000’s Polly pocket dolls, the rubber clothes were so fun ngl
"I'm gonna change her clothes-- I lost the shoes." Congrats! You're already having an authentic Polly Pocket experience. 😂
I had a Polly Pocket from 1994. Now it's considered vintage but it was one of the heart shaped little houses, it was a nursery. It was the only thing I would play with for a whole year. Course we didn't have a lot of toys to begin with but i loved that thing.
I had Polly Pockets, two of the 90s one where you have a small box in a shape with an environment inside and a 2000s one with a big cruis ship. I loved it so much
I think they changed the size of Polly Pocket to be bigger instead of itty bitty so the girls could change the clothes cuz the tiny ones you couldn't change the clothes. I mean making them a bit bigger then they were able to create clothes for them, so now you can dress them how you want
i never had a mini environment style polly pocket as a kid in the 2000s, but they did make mini environment littlest pet shop toys that i loved
The only Polly Pocket themed toy I had growing up with was a Polly Pocket Locket necklace that used to belong to my sister & a McDonald’s Happy Meal toy when I was a kid, that’s what I had growing up with 🥰🥰🥰
Polly pocket was orginally made by blue bird toys. It was bought by mattel in 1998. Mattel mainly sells fashion dolls. Polly pocket was not a fashion doll. So mattel made them bigger and rebrand them to sell them as fashion dolls. The ones you have now look slightly different than the ones we owned around early 2000’s. But same size and same concept clothes.
I also grew up with the really tiny and interactive original ones. I loved them so much!
Notification:New Ick unlocked! The Ick:Tape
I immediately clicked when I got the notification!! Gosh I just love your vibe Jackeh❤!! Why did the pants coming off made me laugh so hard tho 😂😂 RiP the og pollies
As an eighties born, raised nineties kid , my heart sank and broke seeing this Polly monstrosity 😩😱
I love these longer videos! 😁 they’re great for when I just want to relax for a little while and watch something fun, enjoyable and interesting
I have one when i was 5 and then one of my classmates put a lizard egg inside of it and then when i got home there was little tiny lizard parts everywhere that was not fun.. love your videos !!❤
I used to have Polly pockets just like these just slightly smaller. The rubber is so you can easily take off the clothes without ripping them or breaking the doll, and yes gentle fingers are needed
Early 2000s, my mom would help me set up my polly world (I had a cruise ship, houses, etc) and it would take so long city planning and drawing roads on paper that I would be exhausted before even playing with them! My mom wpuld leave the world up for days so I could have time to play and then we'd do it all over again a few weeks later for years and years. I also remember playing her salon and gardening game on the website and its a big reason I fell in love with gardening!
I had some kind of Polly Pocket house with secret compartments that popped up, that was fun... But more than Polly Pocket, I loved the Pound Puppy playsets! They had miniature dog characters in a mini environment 😍🐶🐶
I HAD THE POUND PUPPIES VAN! OMG someone actually knows it! XD
@@timbobshe I had forgotten it, but this video triggered the memory 🥹 My brother had the Pound Puppy Van! (I had a mini gym / olympics playset: the dogs could ski down a hill or do high-jump ⛷)
@ omg no way! hahaha sounds ace! Ah nostalgia :D
Chewing on the rubber jacket polly came with is a core memory for me that was just unlocked 😂
It's a POCKET sized doll!!!
I had some with real hair and some with magnetic clothes I wish I still some of my og's
JACKIE YOU. NEED. TO. MAKE. AN. ADVENT. CALLENDAR.
my grandmother (the woman who rescued me from my birth parents and raised me as if i was her own child) always got me Polly Pockets stuff growing up. im 37 now and still have some around.
Jackie it's so cute watching you discover Polly's clothes are rubber! I've been a long time fan and I had a few coats of Polly's that I liked to chew on back in the day 🤤
I grew up in the 90's and early 2000's with Polly being that size. I loved the rubber clothes and slightly bigger environments. I had, and still have, the limo and concert sets. You can still put her in your pocket, I did. I'm actually surprised they've brought her back, because they returned to the tiny ones in 2011 or so. Tbh,these environments remind me of the McDonald's Polly. The ones I grew up with were at least painted.
I grew up with the bigger Polly’s and that is my childhood! Everything is so nostalgic and the clothes was my favourite part, the texture how easy it was to put on and off the dolls. Now this makes me what to buy some for myself lol❤️❤️
I had a few polly pocket sets, and one was a jungle zip line themed one, where each character you got could ACTUALLY zip line down the whole thing, there were a bunch of other cool things, but the coolest was that the polly pockets hair changed colour with hot/cold water!
I feel like my polly pockets in the 2000s were slightly smaller than this size. My sister and I had a lot of the play sets, some of my favorites were a water park with glittery dolphins, a purple poodle, some cars, and a horse trailer. Some of mine had combable hair and some (probably the ones with pools) had plastic hair. I feel like the faces were a lot different than the ones you opened today.
Disney had similar dolls too so I had some princess polly pockets too, kept the disney stuff together in the traveling case so idk if they were the same size
I remember thinking it was weird that the McDonalds Polly Pockets had hard plastic snap on clothes, still cute though
My sisters had a bunch of the rubber doll clothes when I was little! And my favorite thing as a little grain was chewing on those rubber clothes! Such a good texture XD lmao
OMG, those are exactly like the polly pockets I had growing up! The rubber clothes were always fun to play with (even if some pieces did tear if you were a little bull in a China shop like me 😅). I remember my sisters and I had a ton of them, my favorite being a mall play set with a little food court and hair salon. It even had this changing room thing that you put the doll in and it spun around. Gosh, I haven't thought about these toys in years! Thanks, Jackie, for bringing back those treasured memories. ❤
I remenber a toy line from poly pocket where they had exchangable rubber clothings, and the dolls were a tad smaller than that one you have, and alot more movable.
My sister still has the dolls stashed away in a box like a treasure and sometimes she takes them out so we can reminisce on them XD
I also still have the original poly pockets with their small houses. I dont have many, but i still have them, even the oens made with the disney princesses.
I had a set in the 2000s where the dolls were rubber with magnetic hands and feet. They had a whole playhouse and everything, and were my FAVORITE! One day I took them somewhere with me, and I forgot them in the car because I had stuck them to the metal part of my seatbelt. Once I remembered, I ran out to get them and they had melted and warped into the positions they were in 😩 I BAWLED
For the calendar, 20th was the pink present box. I loved my Polly Pocket that I had when I was a kid, at 90's. If i remember right, I might have two, or maybe the other one was my little sisters :D
I've actually had a horrible week and this makes my heart happy
OMG I MUST GET THEM THEY ARE BACK AAAH i used to collect those exact type of polly pocket! But they got discounted in my country and never saw them again THEY EXIST AGAIN IM SO HAPPY I need to go get them so i get more clothes to my current ones omg x3 (im 21 and my 12 self is so happy rn)
I collect the little Pollys! I just ordered the advent calendar yesterday for $16 I've been eyeing it for years. I'm not a fan of the bigger pollys (i think those are pollyville?) But I believe shes got 3 sizes now
In 2002 a friend of mine had the Glitterific Botique. You got to put glue over the clothes, place them on a coat hanger to put in the closet. You had to block a hole that had a button, this button turned the fan on in it that dried the glue as glitter was pushed around the clothes.
44min of Polly Pocket? Yes plz. Be still my 80s kid heart 😂
Polly Pocket now in 2024,has its own tv show,also the necklace Polly Pocket wears gives her the ability to turn big or small. Love your videos!
I grew up with the 2000s Polly pocket so these more fashion doll types are what I’m more use to. My older sis had the mini play sets.
One of my core memories with polly pockets was finding out that other kids chewed and ate the clothing😅
But polly pocket was one of my favourites. My grandma got me a couple of the classic ones. I remember one having a farris wheel and hot air balloon.
Then my mom got me polly pockets with the rubber clothes, one was shaped like a purse.
They were my favourite and some of my favouritw memories. My mom may have been a single mother but her and my family really looked after me
Some of the tiny accessories, like the jewels and candy are suppose to go on the Christmas tree in the advent calendar
The display you created at the end, gave me dollhouse miniature inspiration!
Omg I love this 🥹 brings so many memories back ❤ As a someone who’s from 1999 the Polly pockets that i grew up with were actually also a bigger size! My older sisters had the tiny ones with the cute little houses 🥰
when I was a kid in the 2000s I had a bunch of the Polly Pockets with the rubber clothes. Those were my Polly Pockets. I loved them I wish I had kept them!
Polly Pockets came out when I was a preteen/teen. They were really, really, really small and came in an environment that fit in the palm of your hand. I like the ones from back in the day rather than what they sell now.
Me and my sister were obsessed with polly pockets we had a 50 gallon container full of them and we would cover out entire bedroom floor and create and entire town of our own and everytime we had enough to make the town different every time we played with them.
Nothing will ever beat the chewablity of the purple jacket-
i had tons as a kid, i loved them, still have a few i think, as childhood keepsakes, my favourite was a ice palace, the dolls would 'skate around' if you toggled a switch.
I wish I still had my original Polly Pockets from the early 90s… I got the 40th anniversary one from my local Mattel store earlier this year…. I actually want the advent calendar… I have the Monster High and Friends Polly Pockets. I want to find The Addams Family one. I have a couple other little Polly Pockets. And I have the strawberry milk one you opened.
Omg childhood memories with polly pocket! I used to watch the Polly pocket shows growing up when I was a small grain, 5:18 is Polly from the 2018 cartoon series I believe, not Polly in her miniature size, the choking hazard ones that are childhood memories are the best 😭🫶
I loved the fashion polly dolls growing up! They were so fun to play with.
It is at these times that I am super grateful to you because you spend your money so I don't have to. THANK YOU! 💕
Thank you for all your hard work,Jackie=) And thank you , grains, who commented about Polly Pocket more=) It was so interesting to read=3 Wishing you all a lovely weekend=3
