Cabbage Patch Kids

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Cabbage Patch Kids are a series of dolls . They are based on a design originally created by Martha Nelson Thomas.

The doll brand was one of the most popular toy fashions of the 1980s and one of the longest running doll franchises in the United States. The characters have appeared in many other Cabbage Patch merchandising products, from cartoons to record albums to board games. The brand has generated over $ 2 billion in sales to date, of which creator Martha Nelson Thomas didn't see a penny. The Garbage Pail Kids series parodies the dolls.
