Description
Remember those little mermaid dolls that came with a lily pad sponge and a comb for their hair. I think it was momma, baby, animal, comb and sponge in the set. They came in all different colors.

I so TOTALLY remember these mermaid dolls. And the description is correct; they came with the baby...animal...comb...sponge. Wish I could recall the exact name so I could look up pics or something. I used to play with these in the bathtub ALL the time! What fun. And they had different sets...certain sets came with certain items!! FUN......
those are called sea wee's!
They're Sea Wees Tropigals and Icygals.
I still have some of my Sea Wees. Tropigals & Icygals were later products of Sea Wees. At first they just came with a lily pad & comb. Then they came with a baby. Then a pet. I was obsessed.
hi!
Haha I use to have the same one in the picture. I was actually thinking about them the other day and could not remember the name of them. Thanx for having this page up ohh the memories.
Wow!! Completely forgotten about these. I had so much fun with them. Not sure what happened to it...
I wanted Sea Wees so bad but didn't have one 'til I found it at a garage sale as a teen. I bought it anyway. I still have the little baby Sea Wee that came with the bigger doll. She doesn't have real hair, but it's blue and in pig tails. Her body is pink.
HOLY CRAP! I had one with white hair, a streak of blue, a blue fin, and what looked like a fur shawl? I must have lost the baby and the animal, I just remember the hair! I'm sorry but Bratz can't compete with this stuff!
Ah! another toy I wanted so badly but was never allowed to have. They sell on ebay too....I can't believe how much they sell for but they are there nonetheless. Guess I'll never have one...EVER!!
I used to have a white one with blue hair. I also had one with red hair, she came with a sea horse. I loved this toy so much. Wish I could go back...
Wow...these sea wees have affected my entire adult life... now I have this weird thing for sponges... they make me salivate... no joke! I remember as a kid, i used to sit in the bath tub and play with the mermaids and suck on the sponges... no idea why! LOL
I remember these being sold in drug stores when I was growning up and my mom buying them whenever I was sick. Oh, I miss those days.
I am having such an emotional response to these little Sea Wees. My parents put one in my stocking every year and it was something that I looked forward to. This is one of my Top 5 all time favorites! Thank you for posting this :D
I loved these!
AAAHHHH! This just made my day!! I have been searching for the name of these. I absolutely loved them as a kid
I was given a mermaid doll when I was five by my mom when I was in the hospital. She was blonde and quite big and she has this seashell and pearl jewelry that you could wear. I can't remember what she was called. Does anyone know?
I had only one of these dolls.
ZOMG I can't believe I forgot about these!!! I used to play with them in the tub and I loved the little baby and the bird so much the paint wore right off them! I only remember having them for a short time, but holy crap did I love them!
I loved these! My great aunt bought my first one and I loved them so much that other family members bought me several other colors. I had forgotten about them until my daughters outgrew they baby bath toys and were ready for big girl toys and I haven't been able to find any that I liked as well as my mermaids. Ah, the good old days! :)
Oh WOW! I LOVED THESE.I must have been 4 or 5. I wish they would bring them back. They need to bring back all of our childhood toys!!!!
I still have two of these. My girls played with them when they were little. They still have them stuffed away somewhere in the pit of the toy box.
I had the same one in the pic and only that one. She was ok, but I remember being miffed b/c I couldn't make the doll's hair look like the pic. Notice the actual doll in the package has flat Cloepatra hair and the demo on the pack has 80's locks.
Oh my gosh i had these! Havent seen them im over 20 years!
does anyone know the name of the dolls that look just like this but they are ot mermaids. They are almost identical but have molded plastic hair and had plastic clothes.
thanks
They were my favorite bath toy. I remember that the sponges began to smell weird after a while(mildew/mold or whatever)even though my mom kept them clean and dry when I was done with my bath.
OMG! I just found one of these at my mom's and gave it to my little one's to play with in the tub. These were the BEST TOYS! Scary how the mind works when a toy from 40 years ago triggers a response. Love it Thank you for getting their name out there.
