Description
made by mattel, this was a toddler type doll. she stood 17 inches tall, had a vinyl head, legs, and left arm. her body and right arm were made of hard plastic. her right arm was straight compared to her left arm, and she had a hole in her right hand. this was so you could put 1 of her 4 puppets in her hand. she was a talking doll, and she made different voices for the different puppets. my older cousin had one of these dolls, i never had one when i was young. but now as an adult, i have three!!! she had short wavy blonde hair, and blue eyes. she originally came in a short yellow dress with white sleeves, white socks, and yellow plastic shoes. she was the same size and type of doll as "timey tell" "hit dottie" and the "1969 reissued chatty cathy" dolls. "peachy" had 4 puppets, a puppy, a monkey, a jester (joker), and a baby with a bonnet. they each had a plastic stick at the bottom of them, and they were different lengths. this is how the doll would make the different voices for them depending on what length the stick was on the puppet. does anyone remember this doll. or did anyone have this doll. i think she is really cute. she had side glancing blue eyes that looked over her left side.

I had (and still do) a Peachy and her Puppets doll! Can only find the baby-puppet and, of course, her voice box no longer works...would like to be reminded of what she said when you pulled the string. I'm wondering if she also talked in her own voice if you pulled the string with no puppet in her hand? She is a very pretty-faced doll (can't believe I was only 3 yrs old when I got her - I remember playing with her and thought I must have been at least 5 or 6)!!!
I have this doll. I have the original box and all 4 of the puppets. Don't have the socks & shoes anymore. I have the yellow dress she came with and one that my mom made for her. My box has a 1973 date on it. Her voice box doesn't work any more. She did have her own voice and one for each puppet. Any ideas if this doll is worth any money?
I have 2 Peachy and her puppets doll 1 Ethnic/African American Peachy and 1 Caucasian Peachy , I have had them since I was a little girl and I LOVE these dolls . They have always been among my favorite play dolls . I have All of the puppets and original clothing and also clothing that was made for them , I also have an original advertising box for 1 of them . I was just one of those children that believed you do not destroy things that your parents work so hard to get for you , as Money can be a hard thing to come by for alot of people . I also have a few other dolls from my childhood ;however, My Peachy and her puppets dolls are my Friends and JEWELS .
We also have a Peachy - plus two full sets of her puppets. One set is untouched in the original sealed plastic pouch ! We'll soon be offering all on Ebay for the interested collector. Trying to determine a fair value....
I owned a Peachy doll and loved her dearly. I took her everywhere with me. I got her for my 6th birthday. I had her for 3 years and when our house burned down she was in my room. And I couldnt save her. I miss her and have been looking for one. But to my disappointment everyone that owns one keeps them.
I have one. All orig, in box, but she doesnt work any longer. Love her. Does anyone know who would be able to fix her voice box? Thanks

I received my Peachy doll for Christmas as a child and loved her. Just wanted to say that I remember one of the phrases with the monkey puppet was, "I love bananas - fried bananas, baked bananas, mashed bananas!". Other than that I can't think of any that weren't already mentioned.
here are the talking phrases that "peachy" says: 1) with the "clown" puppet she says; 1. i'm not sad, my smile is just upside down. 2. i wear a pointed hat, to cover my pointed head 2) with the "baby" doll puppet she says; 1. i'm not a cry baby, i'm a big ol' ___? ah ha ha ha..... 2. peek a boo, i see you. boo! ha ha ha... 3) with the "puppy" dog puppet she says; 1. oh please don't tickle me, ha ha ha. ha ha ha. 2. i love dog biscuit ice cream (lick, slurp, slurp, slurp) 4) with the "monkey" puppet she says; 1. I love bananas - fried bananas, baked bananas, mashed bananas! 2. yankee doodle went to town, & ate some spaghetti. 5) with no puppets in her hand, "peachy" says; 1. which puppet do you think is the funniest. 2. why don't you hand me a puppet. thank you to lisa who commented on march 12, 2013 for giving us the one monkey puppets phrase i didn't know. thank you lisa. i still can't make out the "baby's" phrase, "i'm not a cry baby, i'm a _____. if anybody knows, i'd love to find out. thank you...
