Girls toys

Even the dolls are different here, with a Middle Eastern feeling in their outfits. Taken in the toy section of a local hardware store.

The dolls are very pretty. Much different than a Barbie.

I just read the comment by the Ellisons, they have a valid point.

This is so interesting to see. I love how the packaging is reflective of how the windows are over there. So much more appealing looking than doll boxes here. Thanks for showing this Helen. V

Now I'm confused: the mannequins in the shop windows can't have faces/heads, or have them covered, yet the girls dolls don't even have a veil on their heads...
Surely, if they'd stick to their rules & regulations, the dolls should be covered as well whilst on display.
