Today we have a Friday Boy. He is Tammy’s little brother known as Posin’ Pete. Tammy’s brother is six inches tall and has molded brown hair and brown eyes like his dad and freckles like his sister Pepper.
A little later Ideal released Salty, a little friend of Pepper. Salty is exactly the same doll as Posin’ Pete, just dressed differently. Perhaps there were now so many Tammy family dolls that Ideal hoped we would not notice.
As Pete did not come in his original outfit there is no way for me to know if he actually is Pete or Salty but I think he is cute and I like his little homemade outfit. No outfits were released for Pete/Salty.
Pete/Salty are definitely on my wish-list. I recently got Ricky, Skipper’s friend. He looks like a small Allen to me. Pete is so adorable like Pepper. I wonder is he around the same size as Dodi?

I think Ricky looks like Allan’s little brother too. Pete is smaller than my Dodi. I’ll be posting pictures of him with his family tomorrow so you can see the height difference between him and Pepper.

Salty Pete sounds like either a pirate or a seal.

Why did dolls get so many dumb names back then?

I don’t know. I always wondered why they didn’t have proper names. Perhaps they thought nicknames would appeal to kids more.

Who knows. I’d love to see little Pete with his family. It’s a pity he doesn’t have a little pet, my brothers nearly always have frogs and snakes and lizards.

Well Tammy’s Mom is not a fan of dogs but I’m sure he will get some kind of pet.

Maybe the doll creater’s had a few drinks in them while choosing names, or someone delivered a bland lunch that needed salt & pepper. I was sorry there were no pets for this boy as both my brothers often brought many home, frogs and snakes and lizards.

I never thought I’d get him but then two of them came up on eBay at the same time. He was pricey with the shipping and GST added but so pleased to have got him. I’m missing Bud and Ted.

A lot of us are missing Bud. He’s a rare’un and expensive! I need him too, and Patti. But Pete is the only Turner I’m missing.

I have heard how hard Bud is to get. I can probably get Ted and that will complete the family members at least.
