I adore my niece, she is like a miniature clone of me when I was her
age. She is evil, yet has the face of an angel, she is gorgeous, but
inside she's demonic (at times, not all the time of course).
Seeing how my sister lives so close to me, I see the kids all the
time, and my niece (don't tell my nephew) is my absolute favorite. It's
not because she is a girly girl, or because she is a girl in
general...it is because she follows me around like a shadow. Words I
use, she uses, the way I sit she sits. Monkey see, monkey do. It's
really cute.
However I think she enjoys my company mostly because I have a room
filled with childish fun things. I still collect dolls, I collect action
figures, and other stupid little kid things.
When she was over last, she got a good look at my Hi Glam Julia Doll.
I ended up giving her the doll because I really had no need for it. I
had a feeling though that she wouldn't like the doll, because I have to
be honest they are sort of freaky looking, and my niece only likes
'beautiful' things. She took Julia though with a big smile on her face.
I had a hunch though that once she got to playing with the awkward
doll it would end up under her bed with the slew of Ariel dolls she's
got under their.
A few days ago though while visiting my sisters house though, my niece
pulled out a clone of Julia. Who would of thought that she'd like these
odd dolls enough to beg her mom for an additional doll.
This doll looked just like Julia, only it had straight blond hair.
The dolls name I discovered was Hi Glam Pam. The doll has huge gangly
9-10 inch legs like Julia, and came with a neon outfit that was more
tacky than it was high glam.
Hi Glam Pam came with a pair of plastic neon blue boots with green
fuzz on the rims of them. Her stockings are pink candy striped and come
up to her thigh. Pam wears a tight mini skirt, and wears a purple
sweater with the same green fuzz on the sleeves.
She also came with an additional pair of stockings, that are
impossible to get onto the doll. Of course my niece asked me to put them
on, but after fumbling with the Julia doll, I simply said 'they are ugly, let's keep them off, and keep the pink ones on'. She agreed.
Pam also comes with a few stupid accessories which include junk that
little kids loose in just a few hours. Pam came with a bag, a map, a
post card type thing that is so small and stupid, and a blue plastic
lunch bag type contraption.
Pam like Julia, is also impossible to pose because the dolls legs are
so long and wobbly. Sitting the doll down just looks stupid, and playing
with the doll is also difficult because of her legs. My niece tried
playing with her, and seemed happy with the doll, but I could definitely
see her struggle with it because of it's awkward size. The doll in all
is 12.5 inches tall, so it's a bit different compared to Bratz dolls,
and Barbie's. Especially when the dolls legs are not sturdy.
Overall:
I doubt she will be adding another Hi Glam doll to her set. They look
cute in the box, and perhaps will one day be worth something if they are
kept in their boxes. As of now though, they are probably the most
ridiculous looking doll on the shelves.
Pam is a cute doll, don't get me wrong, it's just too tall of a doll for a young child to maneuver and play with
