I think these little ones will make nice companions for each other as well as for playscale dolls. The availability of more than one dark skinned Travel Friends would have been my preference for the BOGO offer. As an alternate buying source, Kenya and some of the other Travel Friends are available for $16.99 with free shipping for Amazon Prime members.
