The brand was renamed 'Cabbage Patch Kids' when the dolls went into mass production in 1982. The dolls were based upon a design originally created by.The doll brand was one of the most popular toy of the 1980s and one of the longest-running doll franchises in the United States. The characters appeared in many other Cabbage Patch merchandising products ranging from animated cartoons to record albums to board games. Contents.Production history Creation and development According to Roberts, as a 21-year-old art student, he utilized the quilting skills he learned from his mother and the historic technique of 'needle molding' to develop his own line of fabric sculptures.
He called these hand-stitched, one-of-a-kind, soft fabric sculptures 'The Little People'. (Other soft sculpture dolls dating back to the 19th century were created using similar needle molding techniques.) His Little People were not offered for sale, but were 'adopted' each with their own individual name and birth certificate. Instead of paying a purchase price, buyers of Little People would have to pay an adoption fee.The Little People were first sold at arts and crafts shows, then later at, an old medical clinic that Roberts and his friends-turned-employees converted into a toy store, in.An early transaction at Babyland General Hospital worth noting is the sale of the only Little People quintuplets ever made at the facility. Bennie and Jeannie Shelton of Cumming, Georgia paid $5,000 to buy the one-of-a-kind set of five identical dolls. Also worth noting is one of Roberts' very first Little People dolls he ever created sold at an auction in Virginia in the early 1980s for $3,000.According to the discovery legend Roberts came up with for his Little People, and later reproduced on every Cabbage Patch Kids product from 1983 onward:Xavier Roberts was a ten-year-old boy who discovered the Cabbage Patch Kids by following a BunnyBee behind a waterfall into a magical Cabbage Patch, where he found the Cabbage Patch babies being born. To help them find good homes he built BabyLand General in Cleveland, Georgia where the Cabbage Patch Kids could live and play until they were adopted.
BunnyBees are bee-like creatures with rabbit ears they use as wings. They pollinate cabbages with their magic crystals to make Cabbage Patch babies. Colonel Casey is a large stork who oversees Babyland General Hospital. He's the narrator of the Cabbage Patch Kids' story. Otis Lee is the leader of the gang of Cabbage Patch Kids that befriended Xavier. Coleco years The name change to Cabbage Patch Kids was made in 1982 when Xavier's company, Original Appalachian Artworks, began to license a smaller version of the handmade creations to a toy manufacturer named which began mass production the same year.
The Coleco Cabbage Patch Kids had large, round heads (originally of a different, hard plastic), and soft fabric bodies, and were produced from 1982 to 1989, many at a factory in. The first two years production was all from the Far East, with nine head variations produced and computer-matched with bodies to ensure each doll was 'different'. It was, in fact, a marketing ploy that worked quite well as a wide range of variations resulted.
(Source: Larry Moniz, then senior account supervisor for the Coleco account at Richard Weiner Public Relations in NYC.)At the peak of their popularity, the dolls were a must-have for. Parents across the flocked to stores to try to obtain one of the Cabbage Patch Kids for their children, with fights occasionally erupting between parents over the hard-to-find dolls. See also: Lawsuits Though Xavier Roberts was the creator of the Cabbage Patch Kids brand, many of the brand's defining characteristics — such as the dolls' overly round faces and that they came with an certificate — were taken from, an American folk artist from. Before Roberts became involved in the toy industry, Thomas had created and marketed her own line of dolls, called Doll Babies, which she sold at local arts and craft shows and markets. The two crossed paths at a state fair in 1976, whereupon Roberts began purchasing Thomas' dolls to sell at a profit at his own store in Georgia. Thomas eventually confronted Roberts about his unethical business practices and ceased to sell additional dolls to him, prompting him to turn to a manufacturing company in to mass produce dolls similar in appearance to Thomas' at a cheaper cost to him. Thomas brought suit against Roberts and eventually settled with him out of court for an undisclosed amount in 1985.
She and her husband, Tucker Thomas, told the press that she was more upset by the corruption of her dolls, for which she cared deeply, than the money she'd lost as the result of Roberts' actions. Thomas died in 2013, at the age of 62, with her most favorite dolls attending her funeral alongside her family members and friends.Xavier Roberts himself later brought a $30 million lawsuit against, the company that produced grotesque trading cards parodying his company's dolls called the, for copyright infringement. In 1987, in the midst of the legal proceedings, the makers of the Garbage Pail Kids announced their decision to cease the Cabbage Patch Kids, to which Roberts commented to the press 'I could scream, I'm so excited.'
Product safety One line of Cabbage Patch Kids dolls, the Cabbage Patch Snacktime Kids, was designed to 'eat' plastic snacks. The mechanism enabling this was a pair of one-way smooth metal rollers behind plastic lips.
The snacks would exit the doll's back and 'magically' appear into a backpack. The mechanism could be de-activated by releasing the backpack. They were extremely popular during Christmas 1996. The line was voluntarily withdrawn from the market following an agreement between Mattel and the in January 1997 following several incidents where children got their fingers or hair stuck in the dolls' mouths leading to safety warnings from Connecticut's commissioner, Mark Shiffrin.
