I caved in and got myself a tan Hujoo 26cm Yomi Girl! She's a strung ball-jointed doll, made of plastic! Her skin tone is called 'chocolate'. I got her from The Junkyspot.
I had a heck of a time inserting her eyes and positioning them, but I think they're passable. She still needs a face-up (get in line, kid). Luckily, I just got a Kemper mohair wig in her size: 7-8 and I have a Hottiez top and Skipper's Pizza Hut skirt, that fit her perfectly. She reminds me of Dora the Explorer.
And what about footwear? Well, Ken's slippers fit her (one has a broken strap). Some old male dolls' shoes fit her as well.
The best surprise? Moxie Teenz shoes fit perfectly!
I still have some miniature Birkenstocks to try out.
Here's one of my flat-footed, articulated Barbies trying them on for size.
