Vintage Twist’n Turn (TNT) Skipper Doll – Early Issue, Made in Japan (1968). This charming early issue Twist’n Turn (TNT) Skipper doll from 1968 is a collector’s dream. Straight brunette hair with bangs, soft and shiny, retaining its original length with no haircuts. A couple of hair plugs are missing but are well-concealed and do not affect her display appeal. Rooted eyelashes, bright blue eyes, and vibrant face paint showcasing Skipper’s sweet expression. Tight joints, smooth Twist’n Turn waist, and knees that bend and snap securely into all positions. Feet are clean and free from major damage. Outfit Details (Flower Girl #1904). Yellow sleeveless dress with a delicate white lace overskirt and dainty straps, tagged Mattel. White lace bouquet of flowers. Original white flat shoes marked JAPAN. All pieces are in fantastic vintage condition, completing her whimsical look. Condition Description: This Skipper doll is in excellent vintage condition. Her hair is soft and retains its original shine, with only minor plug loss that does not detract from her overall presentation. Some of her rooted eyelashes are intact, and her face paint is vivid. Her Flower Girl outfit is well-preserved, with all pieces clean and intact. Why This Doll Stands Out: As an early issue doll made in Japan, she is a rare and iconic piece of Mattel history. Her classic outfit adds to her charm, making her a perfect addition to any vintage Barbie collection. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a beautiful and collectible piece of Skipper’s legacy! My whole philosophy of Barbie was that through the doll, the little girl could be anything she wanted to be. Barbie always represented the fact that a woman has choices.
