Japanese Skipper Clone
I once found a Skipper clone doll in a lot from the US, which looked like a Japanese Skipper Clone. I didn't find out until recently, that this doll was a repaint. Usually, you shouldn't clean clone dolls with alhohol (or at least avoid their make-up, because it comes off easily with alcohol, and so I was afraid of doing so). Luckily, I had the courage to do so now, and found the blue eyes underneath!
It would have been a wonderful find, but it's not reality. To my knowledge, there are no Japanese Skipper clones after all.
