Part of this doll's appeal for me, besides the obvious was because she is a baby version, and I'd never seen one before, she's also from the 1980's which for me is always a first love when it comes to toys, and came in a cute little animalВ earedВ romper suit with a puppy size version of ' Pudgy'. The first one, I bought via Ebay from an American Seller, I was impatient and onВ tenterhooksВ for almost 2 weeks waiting for her to arrive and hoping she didn't end up lost en route, as I'd fallen madly in love with her andВ couldn'tВ wait to give her a home. I'm sure after an introduction like that, it will come as no surprise for you to discover that I have a couple of Betty Boop Dolls in my collection.

I think in part her appeal for me is due to the fact that it's one of those cartoons where you often get to see 'The Artist' or aВ facsimileВ of him, who begins drawing and seamlessly, as youВ watchВ hisВ artworkВ comes to life as a small child that felt almost like magic to me, combine that with a beautiful woman who's a tad ' dipsy' but not really in anВ condescendingВ way and who uses her charms and a bum wiggle here and there to get out of trouble - add to that a seriously 'get up and move' soundtrack, and it was little Herbie heaven!Д®ven though the cartoons are in black and white and by today's standard they are really dated - especially the music, but for me I always saw them and still think of them as being a in colour that glorious technicolour that only 'Hollywood' can provide and I guess in a way that's part of her appeal in a cartoon world full ofВ anthropomorphicВ talking animals there lives a beautiful 'film star' from Hollywood's Golden Age. I don't know what it is about Betty except for those big eyes, ultraВ feminineВ figureВ and of course her adorable little puppy Pudgy but just looking at an image of her brings back happy memories of long sunny days when the only thing I had make anyВ decisionsВ about wereВ whetherВ I had time to get on my tricycle and peddle around 'The Green' (we lived in a Cul de Sac) before the Ice Cream Man drove around and it was time for 'The Incredible New Shamoo'. The link is here if you are interested: Olmec - WIkiДЄs for the dolls, well it's still possible to find them, and there are quite a few on Ebay at the moment, such as this really cool one below - just look at all those extras and yay, cool wigs too, sadly she's pretty expensive and as she's in the USA, she has shipping costs on top, so out of my price range, but, still looking is free!

I have found a Wikipedia page if you'd like to read a bit more about the OlmecВ Civilization but remember folks, it's Wikipedia, so my advice is to do someВ researchВ else where too! There is a Toll-free number to phone to order a catalogue of their toy range, then the logo and below this is written: 'OLMEC isВ namedВ after an ancient Mexican civilization thatВ sculptedВ African Traders'. At OLMEC our love, our hopes, our skills, our styles and 'OUR PRIDE IS IN OUR TOYS' - We are you! We hope our dolls help your children's self image too.

That was my inspiration to create Sun Man, the world's greatest super hero, now playing with toys that look like him makes him feel good.

Almost ten years ago, my son sent shock waves through my body when he said he couldn't be a superhero because he thought some dreams didn't come in his skin colour. The back of the boxes are very informative too as it contains information and back stories about the dolls, but also information about the company and it's name, such as:

Out of these three I think my favourite has to be 'Kente Fun' on the right, as she reminds me of all those 1980's and early 1990's shows that I loved at the time, such as The Cosby Show, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Kenan & Kel, A Different World and films such as New Jack City, Boyz N The Hood, Do the Right Thing ( & other Spike Lee movies) and 'Royal Princess' makes me think of the 'Black Power Movement' that had it'sВ resurgenceВ in the early to mid 1990's, when it became common to see everyone form Stand Up Comedians to Sit-Com Characters wearing beautiful and Traditional / traditional inspiredВ outfits alongside the crazy post neon prints of the 1980's and early 1990's that everyone else seemed to be wearing, I guess what I'm trying to say is, it was a colourful time, made more colourful by the gorgeous hairstyles and fabrics worn on TV and the Big Screen, and these dolls must have seemed the height of fashion to any child growing up at that time and seeing them onВ shelvesВ in the big stores.
