Polly Pocket wedding compact
As a child I loved polly pocket. I don't know why, as they were so fiddly the pieces often got lost/digested by someone ect. But I did. And it was a toy I asked for repeatedly.
I think it was because I could carry one compacts round with me, should I choose to do some away from home playing.
Anyway, whilst searching on the internet I came across this, I used to have and one, and I knew I would have to use at my wedding. I advocate everybody to have quirky junk at their weddings, not only to show your personality but as a good talking point.
The Polly Pocket wedding chapel compact OR if you want to get technical the 1989 - Bluebird Polly Pocket Nancy's Wedding day. (I have no idea who Nancy is, just that she is the little bride figure).
Nancy is the tiny bride who looks similar to a toilet roll cover and her tiny husband who isn't very well attached in the middle, and of course Polly who is the little purple bridesmaid and the one who's outfit comes off best in this. Very sweet.
The little chapel doors open (very carefully on mine as it's pretty old) to reveal a tiny congregation. Just in case you thought it was very small wedding.
Ebay sellers are flogging these items very cheap and in good condition should you be looking for some retro toys.
