PSA Re: 35th anniversary strawberry shortcake

Warning!! Do not try to smell the 35th anniversary Strawberry Shortcake doll at Target. It is laced with some kind of olfactory crack, and you'll be forced to spend $9.99 to take the thing home with you. YWIA. Also, I feel old.

My original doll still smells like that!

I put in a Strawberry Shortcake DVD at work and the inside of the case smelled! My coworker and I were sniffing it like is this our imaginations? Did they make the DVD case smell like Strawberry Shortcake? MEMORIES.

I bought one for my sister for her birthday, I may have smelled it a few times before giving it to her.

When I think about it, I'm actually embarrassed about the amount of time I spent sitting on my bedroom floor sniffing those dolls as a kid.

The Purple Pieman smelled the best. I still have him packed away in a box somewhere. And wanna know something? When I moved houses a few years ago and I was going through my storage boxes, I took him out and smelled him. He still smelled amazing, and he's probably a good 30 years old.

Omg I loved Strawberry Shortcake!

[bowies]

I'm pretty sure I got high off Maple Sugar as a kid (that was her horse).

I want to buy these now. I used to have the sheets and they smelled amazing.

In another 80's related note, did you guys see that popples are back?

Oh, I loved my popple! It got sold in a garage sale years ago and I instantly regretted it!

I think my mom may have kept mine. I hope so!

This is almost the best news ever!

[minzy]

I had Popples roller skates and a tin Strawberry Shortcake lunch box.

[bunnymendelbaum]

So true. I bought one.

[heygrey]

I hope I can find a popples around here! I loved them!

R eats most meals off my popples plate from the 80's, although tonight it occurred to me that it will probably kill him, not being BPA free and all, lol.

[anna7602]

Ha. My brother just sent me one for my birthday because this was one of my favorite dolls ever as a kid.

Pretty sure I still have my Popple!! I'm going to look tomorrow. I have two giant bins of my old stuffed animals. I had the green one!

[patches31709]

I had a Popples Big Wheel that was like my favorite thing ever



I'm pretty sure when you pushed the horn, it made the popple in front pop up. So fun!

[krystee]

I just googled the new popples and it looks like the Bratz version of the original. Boo. I loved mine!
