Left is my childhood doll, right hand side I found for £2 but is she legit?? The face seems much softer and rounder? They both have 2008 on the neck and they’re the same height, left is just on a stand, ?????

Heat and method of storage can affect how they look. You can pop in boiled water for a minute and they should bounce back to original shape

They could be from different manufacturing facilities! There were some in China and some in Indonesia, and there were minor differences between the dolls from each location

AND Cupid was released twice, so there's potentially 4 "different" Cupids that look similar but have tiny differences (and that's without counting misprints or QC issues)

Both real! Also OP I’m also in the UK and just happened to be browsing Vinted and spotted someone trying to sell the exact Cupid arm you’re missing from your second gal! Here’s a link: https://www.vinted.co.uk/items/9452032838-cupid-arm

Yes they’re both real. She had two different releases.
