Pullip Doll
Pullip dolls were created in 2003 by the JUN Planning company, and although they’ve been available in Japan for some time they have only recently hit the shores of the United States. The Anime look in dolls has been big for several years, with the VOLKS dolls, also from Japan, finding great popularity with fashion doll collectors. The Pullip dolls are not as well known, but they have a very strong Japanese style to them, and they evoke the very popular Blythe dolls as well.
My Antique Dolls over 100- 150 years old
Some photos from my collection. A german bisque from around 1892. Original hair and clothes are so fragile now, being over 100 years old.
Momoko Doll
Momoko was created in 2001 as a side project by a Japanese software company called Petworks.
Sekiguchi altered the doll somewhat and turned it into a mass-market item competitively priced with other fashion dolls, but retained the general concept of an "everyday" modern woman one might find walking down the street in Japan.
The Momoko doll, like most Asian fashion dolls, has visible joints and good flexibility, able to tilt and rotate her head, bend and rotate the elbows, bend the knees, slightly flex and bend near the waist, flex the wrists and ankles, and so on.
Blythe Dolls
Introduced in 1972, and only sold for one year, Blythe is highly sought after by collectors today and can sell for $200 up to $1000 depending on condition and rarity. Almost 30 years later in 1997 Blythe regained popularity when a video producer Gina Garan was given a 1972 Kenner Blythe by a friend and began using it to practice her photographic skills. Gina published her first book of Blythe photography with Chronicle Books, This is Blythe.
Jem Dolls I used to love this doll
Jem originated in 1985 as a cartoon series based on the MTV rock-band glamour era of the mid 1980's. The real stars though were the dolls released by Hasbro in 1985 and 1986 with fabulous fashions and the music from the Jem cartoons on cassette included with almost every doll.
Nearly 20 years later the Jem range of dolls are still amongst the most highly collected toys in history.
Cabbage Patch craze 1983 - Do you remember ?
If you were around in 1983 you'll remember a crafty marketing campaign which resulted in 3 million sales that year. The Coleco company announced there weren't going to be enough of these dolls to go around for the holiday season and you better get them while you can. Each one came with it's own birth certificate and unique name, which made them all the more desirable.
Chucky Doll - Did you have one?
From the 1988 movie Child's Play. This version of the doll was a promo given only to Video stores. Later versions were sold in stores.
