The cabbage patch kids were perhaps the most popular and memorable dolls from the 80's. The dolls were so popular and in such high demand, that stories of mother's fighting each other over the last doll in the toy store started surfacing in the mainstream news. Typically these maternal brawls occured during the christmas season when demand for the dolls was at its highest.
The plastic headed dolls were originally created with plush, fabric heads but when the went into mass production, they began having plastic heads that were much easier to produce. The original doll's creator, Xavier Roberts, began creating the dolls by hand and sold them at small festival and local busineses. Eventually he sold the licenscing of the dolls to Coleco who renamed them to: "Cabbage Patch Kids" and sold them succesfully throughout the 80's.
So, what was the original name of the "Cabbage Patch Kids" dolls?
