Hot Sluts Of The Day!

In honor of Earth Day, here's the prim and proper flower belles from Rose Petal Place! The Rose Petal Place ladies bloomed from the garden of the 80s and had their own line of dolls, a movie (which used the voice stylings of Marie Fucking Osmond), a board game, a lunch box and a bunch of other crap. The Rose Petal Place beauties consisted of its star Rose Petal (who was like Mimi of the 80s since her singing voice kept the flowers alive), Sunny Sunflower, Iris, Cherry Blossom, Marigold, Orchid, Lily Fair, a bunch of other flowers and their arch nemesis Nastina (not be confused with Xtina). The Rose Petal Place Wiki page best explains the history of Katy Perry's fashion and beauty icons:

"Rose Petal Place began a long time ago when a girl was moving away from her lovely home and garden. She cried for her beloved garden because no one would be there to take care of her flowers. She didn't want them to perish so she made a secret wish that the flowers would live forever..."

Out of this magical wish, combined with her tears of love, brought Rose Petal and all of her friends (Lily Fair, Daffodil, Orchid, Sunny Sunflower, and Iris) to life. They still reside in this garden tending the little girl's flowers. Rose Petal made her home out of a watering pail that was left there and turned it into "palace." And so begins the tale...."

They used a lot of words to basically say that every toy maker in the 80s was beyond high on acid. How many times do you think they tried to smoke up one of those Rose Petal Place dolls? But nobody needs to try to get high from toking on some Rose Petal hair since the commercial will take you up, up and away:

Happy Earth Day, everyone! Spend the day smoking up some of God's green earth before trying to bring a flower to life with your own teardrop.

Haha. I love how there's not a black doll in the commercial but in the pic MK chose, there is one. Kind of like the black cabbage patch doll, which I had. :) Gotta love the tokens after-the-fact.

I had that lunchbox AND those dolls. It's amazing how cheap they look now, but when you're 5 those are some high end luxury toys ;)

Yes! I could not for the life of me remember what this show was called for a very long time, until a year or two ago when I found it on google. But I had very nice memories of beautiful animation and that fuzzy vaseline lens opening. Of course, like pretty much any animated show I watched when I was a kid, upon reviewing I saw that it actually looked like shit. Oh well.

Somebody mentioned Strawberry Shortcake (which I also loved)... I had a SS doll when I was a kid that was scented. I love the smell. If I smell something reminiscent of it, it's like being sent back in time for a quick second.

I still have my album of these dolls singing in my record collection. I used to rock that stuff in my room as a little girl.

They're like little Georgia O'Keefe dolls. Yonic fun for everyone.

There's something very sinister about these things.

I don't remember these dolls. Then again, I was a teenager in the 80's. Damn, I'm old. LOL

They seem to have the same faces as the Kelly dolls my kids played with a few years ago. Same creepy little faces.

Oh yeah, I got snaps of the his truck, his ugly mug and his license plate.

You know they had to be on drugs...those doll's heads were three times as large as their bodies.

Salma, I hope you took a pic of his license plate! Nasty mutha fuka!

@ Sinjin

I live in the middle of dumbfuck Canada.The town office is closed on Sunday and the police won't come out for shit like that. They have more important things to do like harass folks for growing weed in their greenhouses.

Salma, won't the popo come ticket him if you call them? Where I live, that shit is illegal. He's a bastard.

These are mere rip-offs of the originals that I played with as a child - Liddle Kiddles of the mid to late '60s

☆☆☆☆

I had Lucky Locket Kiddles and Skadiddle Kiddles. The latter had some wheeled attachment on back that you'd roll and the doll's arms and legs moved as if they were walking.

Hm, those people were probably on acid, too.

Wow! I forgot about these, too! I know I had the daffodil doll. I still have a lot of Strawberry Shortcake stuff at my dad's house in the attic. I wonder if Daffodil is mixed in with that stuff...Hard to believe my childhood toys are around 30 years old! Looks like I'll never have children, so perhaps time to sell 'em.

Haha, nothing like a penguin bitch slap! :)

Sorry to be Off topic but I'm so livid right now!

Some dickhead is dumping his left over construction shit across the street where there is a forested park area and where all the wildlife go to hang out. I've been taking pictures and documenting this because this is the second day in a row he's been dumping. For Christ sakes, there are places to go to recycle this stuff but he too fucking lazy and thinks the earth is his own personal dumping ground. THIS MAKES ME SO ANGRY!

Oh yeah, Happy Earth Day.

Oh, it's Mary Jane Girls. Where is the Rick James doll?

OMG. I totally forgot about these. I had the rose one, and she smelled lovely - like fake, old lady rose perfume, but I loved it.

Holy shit, I'm fucking old.

Sunny Sunflower isn't posing in front of sunflowers.
She's either Carlotta Coreopsis, or Tequila Tickseed (*common name) because that's what's behind her yellow ass.
*Heh. No shit.

Heh! I'm not entirely sure that's a rose behind Rose, either.

Dion flowerboy's picture

I'm still laughing at your avie, IG.

I have no idea where you pulled this one out of but Thank YOU! I've been wracking my brain for years to remember this doll line. I had the video and a doll, both of which disappeared by 1984.

I had completely forgotten this show!!!

Now I want my old Rose Petal doll and her cool rose car! LOL

Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the gun.

No kidding. And what I would have given to have known you just had to go to Toys R Us and buy these crap collections and keep it in the original boxes unopened. Hard as that may have been, I coulda done it. Rich gays like Bravo Andy or Boo (or MK) would probably fork over a pretty penny in 2012. This is art.

LOL! They look like cake-toppers.

Crazy. Being in elementary school in the 80's - and therefore, their target demographic - this is the first I'm hearing of these Strawberry Shortcake wannabes.

Holy shit I loved these things.

Is it hard in here or is it just you?

Cute, but they couldn't hold a candle to my Twist N' Turn Skipper and Nurse Julia dolls.
