Ours were a nauseating gold, cuffed legs, name just on the front. They were phasing them out for the year after me, so wouldn't you know it? My gym suit met a disastrous end, and I was forced to wear the newer version! That was almost, but not quite, like a t-shirt and shorts.

You know how Tammy was both taller and larger than Barbie? To this day, my sister and I might compare 2 people that way--"you know, the 2 cousins who look like a Tammy and a Barbie together".
Tammy just seemed gigantic compared to Barbie! I had a friend named Tammy, and I think every one of her 12 aunts & uncles sent her a Tammy doll! She hated them!
