The Tammy doll is Sindy. Pedigree Toys licensed Tammy from Ideal and brought her over to the UK and made her more British and changed her name. The dolls are identical and use the same molds. They both even use the same 'the doll you love to dress' tag line.

Can't wait to see the 70's dolls!!!

In the sixties, the troll dolls were called Wishniks. Many had a long topknot ponytail. You were supposed to hold them by the ponytail in one hand, rub their belly with the other hand, and make a wish.

Also popular baby doll was called Thumbelina. Pebbles and Bam Bam dolls. Still have my Kissy doll, works too! Tressy had a knob or button on her back to adjust the hair length.

Slugbug is a game you play in the car. If you see a VWbug you yell slugbug or punchbug and hit the other person in the car in the arm. Usually this person was a sibling lol. I still have my childhood Crissy doll and her hair still works.

Smaller dolls were also very popular in the 60s. Liddle Kiddles came in many varieties, and even in jewelry like large lockers, small pins, bracelets, and pins, all with tiny dolls in them! There were also Dolly Darlings, and the Hi Heidi doll and her friends that came in carrying cases. Chrissy with growing hair was my favorite non Barbie doll as a child! They also made several friends and a cousin for her.

Wow the video brought back fond memories. I'm showing my age, but I had some of these dolls. I was given my first Barbie in 1962 (I was 5 that year) and she was the red head bubble cut doll (I still have her). I had twist and turn Barbie, Fashion Queen (I still have her as well) a Skipper, Tutti (she was fun to pose), Tressy, Tammy, Crissy, Julia (the 1960's television show; another "star" doll that Mattel made), I'm surprised you didn't mention her. I also had Twiggy as well. The 60's was a good decade for dolls. I even had a Flatsy doll and I would "borrow" my nephews G.I. Joe so Barbie could go on a date. I had a Ken but I thought Joe was cooler than Ken. LOL. Barbie is a year younger that I am. I was one year old when Barbie was "born". She was "born" in March and so was I. LOL

Fun GI Joe fact: the popularity of GI Joe started to decrease in the mid or late 60s due to protest against war. They changed up their line for a moment and the action figures went from solder to like park ranger or something like that.

One of my favorites from the era is Peteena. One of the first, if not the first, anthropomorphic fashion dolls (a precursor to Pinkie Cooper). She's a poodle! Her ad jingle always gets stuck in my head. She was made in 1966 and has really cute fashion packs!

I think the Littlechap Family dolls were introduced in the early 60s, too.

A "slug bug" is a Volkswagen Beetle. It refers to the game, sometimes called "Punch Buggy" where you hit the person in the car next to you every time you see a Beetle, or "bug", car. To 'slug" someone was also a way to say punch back in the day.

I had 3 of the 60's Barbie dolls all with plastic hair. I had 3 wigs, blonde, brunette, and black. Also the black stands, a black circle carrying case with a half zipper. My Mom was a phenomenal knitter and would knit the dolls little sweaters from spare yarn. The sweaters fit perfectly too. Then when I turned 12, my Mom told me to give them to my Godmother's first granddaughter. 😩

Mattel had two dolls that were my favorites back then; Dancerina (the ballet doll) and Tippy Toes - she rode her own bike!

Gosh… I want that Astronaut Barbie so bad! Thanks for showing all those pretty dolls!

I didn't have a troll, my friend had a whole bunch and my grandpa bought me a Moongoon, who was colored green with ruby hair definitely a knockoff. I had an early Chatty Cathy. My mom had a Talking Chatty and two lovely Vogue Burkett dolls. My cousins had a Giggles and a Kissy. My mom vetoed Chrissy. All my dolls got lost in several moves across country.

Crissy is my favorite from the 60s by far. I love the face and body sculpts and the fashions! I'm most excited for the 80s edition because of the Teddy Ruxpin doll. I hope you include him on the list because he's super sweet and endlessly iconic. I know he's more of a Teddy bear but he had a sort of dress up element with different fashions and accessories that were made for him. Overall, he's my favorite piece of 80s memorabilia 🥰🐻

I remember getting my first Barbie, probably in 1963 or 1964. My dad bought it for me in Alexander’s department store. I got the gold lame cocktail dress and a gray fur stole. To be honest, she looked like a teeny tiny call girl. I loved her to pieces.

I grew up in the 70's. That's why I'm really looking forward to the post about it! ❤️

I wish you did Penny Albright, baby cheerful tearful, baby small talk, baby first step, & the little kiddles, thanks for doing Crissy!

I still have my Tammy and Tressy dolls, as well as bendable legs Barbie and her friends Francie and Casey, and the bendable Tutti from the mid 60s. As for small dolls, there were Lil' Kiddles that were about 2 inches tall and came with their own house. The chatty doll I had was a Chatty Baby with dark hair, but she got thrown away when she couldn't talk anymore. I also had a GI Joe because I liked him more than Ken.

The bendable knee Barbie was fun but the knees sadly broke fairly easily :(

Oh, I was given a wig Barbie. I never knew she had that interesting outfit; I had inherited her from some family friends. I was quite young then, and the dolls did not survive me. They were played with until they disintegrated, though, so it's all good.

I had a doll in the 60's called Baby First Step. She was about 2 ft high with straight blond hair. She ran on batteries and when you switched her on she walked by kind of shuffling her feet. Good times!

G.I Joe 12 inch figure is my favorite male doll, G.l Joe 1964 is my wishlist.

I agree with you Sindy reminded me of Tammy as well. The Christy doll i used to own along with Velvet, I think they were sisters. Christy was around 20 inches tall and Velvet was a little shorter. I used to have the twist and turn Barbie as well but sadly I gave Christy,Velvet and the twist and turn Barbie to my sisters and I never saw them again. I miss having them. Great video as usual! I still have Tammy and her family.

I had a Popi. The wigs were soft plastic and worked well. The clothes were fun and really did work as advertised but they had a funny smell. The Barbie type body was a cheaper, thin plastic and just seemed cheap.

Nice video. Ideal Tammy is not a clone though. She is actually a doll with a more wholesome look made by Ideal in competition to Barbie. Pedigree based their Sindy doll upon the same style as Tammy hence the similarities. I think there was some licensing agreement between Ideal and Pedigree. They even shared the same catch phrase, "The Doll You Love to Dress".

Oh what fun! Love your presentation! Slug-Bug!! That's one I haven't heard for ages! It was a car ride game based on tormenting your siblings and friends (are there any car games that aren't?). The idea was to spot a Volkswagen Beetle car before any other kid riding with you. Then you got to call out "Slug-Bug!" and punch a companion on the shoulder. You weren't supposed to punch hard but you know how kids are.... The things we did before cell phones or in car entertainment systems! Of course you could always play with your Barbie if your mom let you bring her along for the ride. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

Cricket was a popular girls name in the 60s. It came from the hippie movement like rainbow. Rainy day. Butterfly. Cloud. Flower. Beatle .etc

OMG!!!! I've been trying for years to find out the name of Popi! I had this doll and loved actually making the clothes. I learned to sew not long after and that doll definitely was a great learning tool to teach about sewing and fashion design. Thank you!!

Tressy was an 11.5" doll like Barbie. Crissy and her friend Kerri were about 17" tall (I had purchased Kerri on sale when I was about 12 to use as a model for designing clothes and hairstyles). The dolls had 13" or 15" younger sisters as well.

Barbie was the first doll I remember buying with my allowance. 1960. Now I have many, many. Started collecting as an adult over 30 years ago. The first was like my original ponytail which is long gone. I actually won a Kissy doll when I was 10. Cricket, I think, was a character on a TV show. Slug bug was when you saw a vw, shout out slug bug.

Does anyone remember Mattle's Sister Small Talk from 1967? She had a groovy dress on, with go go boots. I loved mine. And all the Liddle Kiddles, what fun they were. I had a Locket one with brunette hair, very popular in the late "60's. I also had Talking Barbie from 1968, which was probably my favorite! I still remember the case she came in, along with the Barbie tag on her wrist. I had Crispy too, which was fun playing with her hair, but I also wanted the blonde Velvet, which I never got.

I didn't have any of the baby dolls as I liked fashion dolls better. Almost all of the baby dolls were reminescent of American Girl to me. Maybe they were her precursor or something.
