Hayden and Catherine looked lovely together and you know I love Eloise! (That name fits her very well) I love the little name and gender suprises and the way Catherine matches with the other dolls! I had to laugh when I saw Meygana, she's not really into babies, lol xD There's only one word to describe this doll and that is. I remember really wishing she'd bought that doll so that I could hold it, too. She held her hands out as though she could still feel the way it had fit into her arms. She was animated and excited about how different it was. I couldn't quite picture the squished face and I didn't understand the whole cabbage patch story, but there was something about the way she talked about this doll. I vividly remember her trying to describe it to me when I came to visit. One time, she got to hold one of the very first porcelain Cabbage Patch Kids for a while and she almost bought it.
In the early 80s, my grandma used to go to a local hobby store every month to look at the new dolls. These dolls have a special place in my heart-not just because of their wonderful names, but because I remember my grandmother telling me about them when they were brand new. The fourth thing that appeals to me about this tiny doll is simply that it's a Cabbage Patch Kid. So.here's my cute baby who could be a boy OR a girl and who has a secret mystery name! Eeee! Are you excited?Ĭabbage Patch mini doll: blonde hair, blue eyes. Luckily, for $3.99, this isn't a huge burden. Having a secret name for a doll is a brilliant marketing strategy, because I have to buy the doll in order to learn the name.
#How much is the millenium cabbage patch doll worth full size#
Full size Cabbage Patch Kids all come with a unique name (a first and a middle name), and I used to lurk in the toy aisles, trying to get a peek at what the names of all the Kids were without giving away what I was doing. I still love naming things and thinking about names and I am always excited to learn what friends and relatives (and even celebrities) name their babies. As a little girl, I named everything in sight, including all of my dolls and a massive collection of Breyer model horses. Any doll that can re-create even a tiny fraction of that anticipation is instantly appealing to me. I love surprises! To me, waiting to learn the gender of a real child is one of life's greatest and most exciting secrets. Second of all, the gender of the doll is a secret. Most of the mini dolls on the market (Lalaloopsy, Cutie Pops, LPS Blythe) cost closer to $10. First of all, this doll costs under $5.00 ($3.99 at the moment), which is practically unheard of these days. It has so many elements that I find irresistibly fun, it's almost like it was made for me. To me, this is the perfect miniature doll. I found the most wonderful little toy at Toys R Us the other day! It's a tiny little Cabbage Patch doll.
