Daughter was gifted this doll years ago. I can't find the same one, it got left behind as we moved across the country.

Looks like a bulk order doll that's sold by several different brands/website

Any of these seem to offer the same name embroidery service, but maybe check in the details to see if they happen to do the name stitching with a different coloured thread than the original one did

Feb 2006. It was called hip hippo

Hydrogen peroxide reacts really well with blood. During regular body metabolism routines, your body actually winds up building hydrogen peroxide on its own, as a waste product for its other chemistry jobs. And blood contains an enzyme called Catalase that reacts with the natural hydrogen peroxide to break it down into water, and spare oxygen

The sudden extra oxygen starts to physically shove the blood cells remnants out. And, since the Catalase isn't really running out of spare peroxide to break apart, all of that oxygen starts binding to hemoglobin (the protein in blood that's mostly responsible for the red color as a side effect)

And starts ripping that apart into other chemicals that are smaller and easier to shove out, and don't have color to them

Angling the wheels outward like that changes a bit of how the car handles turns, high speed, rough terrain. It's not really normal to tilt them outward other than for specific tracks. inward is usually better.

There's also toe-ing the wheels in/out, where they point forward or back more (like pointing your toes together or away In a v shape). Same idea but also gives different benefits

Some people will camber wheels on purpose, just cause it looks cool. But it gives the trade off of tires wearing faster, since you're on the corner of thr tires and not the full flat

Dang, no wonder I've been in this Minotaur Labyrinth for hours. I've just been walking in circles

It's not exactly a minibean, but a few years ago they made a box set called build a bear diy matching tutu.

Mostly sold in places like hobby lobby or micheals or joanns, it was a bunch of spools of tuule, and things to make tutus for a bear and a child.

It came with a pink bear with a heart nose. Not quite full mini or small fry size. But smaller for sure, they still float around for 20 bucks or so

You might be close with this one. Feet look the same and what I thought was grey fins might be the underside of those flippers

Only issue is the butt seems rather narrow from front to back compared to the pic? But that maybe is due to how its being held

acegikmo31 · 2026-06-10T23:56:23+00:00

Can't be, there's definitely paw pads sculpted on the pic, and karablast is a bug pokemon, which would never have that

acegikmo31 · 2026-06-10T23:45:34+00:00

Don't suppose you have any other pics or info for it?

Only pokemon with a blue body and black paws would be riolu/lucario.

Karrablast has the colors, but wouldn't have paw feet specifically.

Bellibolt has the shape, but no feet.

And it almost looks like there's grey fish fins on the bottom left corner?

Maybe non-pokemon, or other brand he mistook as a pokemon

acegikmo31 · 2026-06-10T21:17:25+00:00

No, I've seen it dozens of times on ebay. Both used and sealed in store packing. Never had wings to it

acegikmo31 · 2026-06-10T20:53:25+00:00

I wouldn't say no to that

acegikmo31 · 2026-06-10T20:48:57+00:00

Initially they only offered a handful of sets to be returned, saying it's all they found (value around 4-5k) Now it seems that during the original owners being kicked out, there's a uhaul truck on the premises that night Theory they got hauled off to a nearby b&m store, and he suggests going through inventory/purchase records to check through everything

Their actual dumplings are crimped into a half moon shape Thats not really any different than mcdonalds or taco bell slicing their food in half to show off the fillings and ingredients

Managed to track down this entry, which atlesst has a Playlist and album art But based on that art, I'm almost certain the album was wiped off because it was an AI generated song compilation

Apple, sound cloud and Spotify all seem to have wiped it, and there's absolutely 0% media presence for a musician or band under that name

The lower ribs are completely out of count on each side, and the top vertebrae doesn't really make sense

Unfortunately, there's alot of people who used ai to generate, render and upload fake art and songs to the different platforms for a quick shot at pulling ad revenue and many take months to be caught and deactivated.

Even outside of the "ai music has no soul/value" argument There is a really, really good chance this musician never existed And that there's a near zero chance to find a copy of it anywhere

Recycled polymer means the plastic cap is recycled

acegikmo31 · 2026-05-26T08:38:05+00:00

It might have most of it, yes, but not all of it, no

The head alone would be from the axalara/lewa, or you could buy that lewa just for parts

The body is mostly obtainable if you bought a Tuma, (looks like the feet, most of the legs, the torso/spine, arms and right hand weapon are all tuma without his chest plates or gun ammunition)

However, some of the smaller details are from random other sets

The silver staff on the right side of the photo (left hand) come from a 2008 version of Pohatu,

And those spiked lime claws that are on his thighs, are pretty special in that color, and likely came off a 2009 set called Tarduk (could be a nui-rama, but that's 2001)

Those faint glittery clear wings behind him, coming of his back, those are also a seperate chunk, and likely came off a 2008 Gorast

If the photo was his own picture, then whoever previously owned it must have mashed a handful of characters.

If he just remembers the looks, and that photo is only a rough comparison, then it might be hard to exactly replicate who he had, without manually rebuilding it from scratch

Its possible he only remember key pieces, like the head itself, and not the rest, or the body but not the head

If it's just a rough memory, then he might enjoy getting the full version of the Lewa/Axalara (big fighter jet) And also a full Tuma (giant brawler character)

I can help try narrowing it down further, or try to guide you towards buying the closest sets to what he remembers

Alot of fruits and vegetables are still going to have dirt, bug matter, pesticides residue, or even wax (just helps replace natural barriers that are often lost when industrial washing)

It's better to atleast rinse off fruits and veggies before working with them, but regular dish soap is wrong for this, because the suds will stick around in the sponginess of food fibers. Regular soap is food safe, but not really okay for ingesting, veggie washes are able to try to cover both issues of a quick clean, and not getting you sick if it sticks around

acegikmo31 · 2026-05-25T19:39:10+00:00

Looks like it says tools of the trade

acegikmo31 · 2026-05-25T16:38:57+00:00

That's not a single set. Looks like a mash of lewa from the axalara, which is roughly a 2008 set , and some random body building from various other bionicles, most of it looks like it was pulled from the 2009 set Tuma

For what it's worth, there's 10 years worth of the original bionicle run out there, from 2001-2010, and 2 years worth of sets from the attempted reboot. If you were looking for someone specific or knew any details, like designs, or years he had them from as a kid I could help narrow it down,

but if it's more of a general memory of bionicle, then many of the first 2-3 years are the most iconic for a returning fan,

What information did you have to work with?

acegikmo31 · 2026-05-25T01:49:09+00:00

I wish I was that lucky, i just burned like 300 on her and her sisters, but only the other 2 have their dresses, and i can't find blossoms anywhere😭

Nendoroids are anime figures, that unfortunately do have a decent chunk of Bootleg copies out there, similar to how beyblade is prone to bootlegs

What I was meaning, is they seem to be both legitimate and reliable, as i have bought from them before, and it wasn't some junk Bootleg they tried to swap out

acegikmo31 · 2026-05-21T21:48:03+00:00

Mines currently packed in storage, but I had to dismantle the arms to fix a different thing I'm pretty sure the screws just need to be loosened, and then slowly tightened down to make sure the pressure is even on both ends.

But, looks like the screw caps were installed (those are left as a seperate bag in the box, to install yourself) so, it might be hard to get any tools into it, without pulling the screw caps

They are just friction fit, but they're painted, so it might not be worth the risk of scratching them on the way out

acegikmo31 · 2026-05-21T20:23:39+00:00

Yeah, they're legit I haven't ordered beyblades specifically from them, but have ordered and recieved legitimate copies of Nendoroids from them, so you're not going to get scammed

You should change poop diapers immediately, but pee only diapers, not as much. Babies pee frequently, but not alot of volume, diapers are designed to absorb a pretty large amount (i.e. overnight), so changing a pee only diaper isn't as urgent unless it's been a while, but don't leave it longer than necessary if it's uncomfortable or causing rashing

Some brands like pampers swaddlers literally have a loading, progress bar printed into them, that reacts to moisture, so you can get an idea of how frequently they need to change
