Hello to all from Indianapolis,
I'm a baby boomer Mom and Children's Librarian whose childhood doll was Ideal's Tammy. I discovered Sindy through the wonders of the internet and wished I had known her during my childhood as well. I often wonder what Tammy would have been like today if she had not been discontinued. It is so great to have Sindy alive and well and forerver new.
I was a member of the Yahoo Sindy group but that seems to have dropped off. I hadn't checked in for quite some time.
My husband is a children's librarian too. The 5 kids in the family range in age from 27 to 8. The two youngest are 2 little ladies we adopted from Vietnam when they were 15 months and 2 years old respectively. They are now 8 and 9 and I am just about to clean out a room and introduce them to my Tammys and Sindys.
I'm looking forward to listening and learning. I have read ariticles saying Sindy has had another makeover from Pedigree and I'm excited to find out all about it.
Happy New Year, Kate

Hi there Kate! I'm a generation xer! I had my first Sindy in the late 70s/early 80s and I rediscovered her last year and love her. I mostly collect late 70s-mid 80s Pedigree Sindys and have a few new ones but also 90s/00s Barbie and the odd other doll I think is cute! I look forward to seeing your collection! Welcome aboard! Luv Natasha

Hi Kate, Wecome! I'm new too and although I mainly collect Sindy I have a small Tammy collection too. It's amazing how many are still around when she was only produced for such a short time. Looking forward to seeing your dolls. Chat soon. Sheila
