The Mulberry Racoon Family

Dear Readers,

Recently, I´ve bought some second hand families that are now retired.One of these families is the one I´m going to introduce you today: The Mulberry Racoon Family. 

I´ve been doing some research and I think I have the Tomy version. At first, I thought Ike, the brother, was not in his original trousers but it seems in the Tomy version he´s wearing these trousers instead of the white and blue checked ones.If they are Tomy I guess they can be considered vintage. 

This is the bio I wrote for them:

Elma is the village mechanic. He has shown a big interest in cars and motorcycles since he was a very young boy. He used to go to sleep with a toy car instead of with a teddy bear. His father George was the one who sparked this interest as he was also a mechanic.

"Let´s see what´s wrong with this engine"

Mae is the school cook. She prepares healthy and delicious meals for all the village schoolchildren at lunch time. Children love her vegetable soup and cheese nuggets but their favourite are Mae´s fruit pies. She loves reading cookery books and try new recipes to fill and delight the schoolchildren´s stomachs and her own family´s.

"Today fruit pie for dessert."

Ike wants to be a mechanic like his father and his grandfather. His best friend is Vespa Farthing. They both love motorcycles and like to draw their own designs. They want to build and ride their own motorcycle when they grow up. In the meantime Ike is more than happy when his grandpa takes him for a spin in the sidecar.

"Let´s go for a spin, grandpa!"

Candy is as sweet as her name. She loves dollhouses and miniatures. She likes to make their own dollhouses out of cardboard and sew tiny dresses for her dolls. She also likes cooking like her mother but just sweet treats. Her berry trifle is delicious. She also likes cars, or rather, toy cars that she borrows from her brother. She likes to pretend her dolls travel by car to lovely places.

"Do you like my toy house?"

Would you like to meet more members of this family?

I´ll be back soon with the Mulberry Racoon Grandparents!!

See you then. Thanks for reading!

Lots of love
