If you didn't have one, you certainly knew someone who did, and I dare say it was on the top of your wishlist at every Christmas and birthday – despite the 'creepy' doll faces.
Fisher Price even shared a clip of the 1992 buy just last year – and commenters had never felt so nostalgic.
'I actually had this doll house until 14 years ago. I still remember the Christmas I got it. I found it hidden in my grandparents house. I decided to randomly start playing with it. Then I got caught and had to wait till Christmas. I was so excited Christmas Morning,' one person said.
'I still have mine and all 3 of my children have played with it and loved it! My youngest is 3 and still plays with it often!!!!' said another.
'That brings back sooo many memories,' a third agreed.
Well, if you haven't sold yours by now and you're not feeling so attached, you might want to go and check its condition, as the piece and all of its accessories are now selling for hundreds online.

How much is it really worth?
An Aussie mom has taken to the Australian BSS Fisher Price Loving Family group on Facebook this week to put her beloved doll house, along with all the accompanying accessories, up for auction.
And, while a standard doll house might set you back a pretty penny now, this one – now over 30 years old – is going to cost you even more, with a starting price of $522.10 USD.
This particular page sees many desperate shoppers helping others to buy and sell these dollhouses in both blue and pink.
Prices start from around $16 for those feeling particularly generous, and go up to around $196, and sometimes even more.
Over on eBay, you can find similar prices again, with Salvos currently auctioning off a doll house with four dolls and a number of other accessories. The current price? $336.10 plus shipping.
Despite little ones turning more and more to digital toys and online options, it seems there's still absolutely a market out there for 'vintage' (though referring to the '90s as vintage truly hurts my soul) toys like these.
Those with a blue roof like this one are said to be even more rare, so if you think you've got one at home and are in need of some extra cash, why not jump on and see what the rest of the world thinks it's worth.

The cash-grab continues as Netflix announces its sixth price hike since its Aussie launch
Stop me if you've heard this one: Netflix is hiking its prices again in Australia. In what is starting to feel like an Aussie twist on "Money Heist", the streaming giant will be liberating us from even more of our cash from September 2025. Netflix subscribers received emails over the weekend outlining price changes, including a AU$2 increase for the Standard with ads tier, now priced at AU$9.99 p/m, another AU$2 hike for the Standard tier, bringing it to AU$20.99 p/m, and a AU$3 rise for the Premium tier, which now costs a hefty AU$28.99 p/m. For these keeping score at home, this marks the sixth time that Netflix has increased its prices since the service's Australian launch back in March 2015. Netflix introduced its first price increase across all tiers just two years after launching in Australia in June 2017. This was followed by hikes to the Premium tier in October 2019, the Basic and Standard tiers in September 2020, the Standard and Premium tiers in November 2021, and all three paid tiers in May 2024. During this period, Netflix also launched a paid Basic with ads tier, which was later replaced by a Standard with ads tier that included HD streaming. According to Netflix's email, the service has updated its prices "to bring you even more exciting, new entertainment," along with "fresh, can't-miss shows and movies every week (including 71 new releases next month)." Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like Australia's cost-of-living pressures will be easing any time soon, though at least we'll be able to keep ourselves entertained with multi-part seasons of shows like "Wednesday" and "Stranger Things" that will be dragged out over several pay cycles. In the meantime, you can keep on top of the service's cost fluctuations in our Netflix pricing in Australia guide, along with other local services like Disney Plus, Stan and Prime Video.
