Skooter was Skippers friend. She only was made in two versions; #1040 Straight-leg and #1120 Bend-leg Skooter. The later version dolls had a more pink tone skin color. The straight-leg doll came in a red two-piece swim suit and the bendable version came in jean shorts and a polka-dot red and white top. She has brown eyes, and either blonde, brunette, or titian hair colors.
She is marked:©1963/Mattel, Inc. Straight-leg Skooter was packaged with red hair ribbons, red & white two-piece swim-suit, red flat shoes, gold wire stand, white comb & brush, and booklet. Bend-Leg Skooter's box contents were the same as the straight-leg version except no swimsuit, instead Red Poka-dot Crop Top & Blue Jean Shorts
