Do you know the name of those big, round plastic dolls with no arms or legs? They were designed that way so that kids could hold them easily. I don't know their names or if they even have names, but if anyone knows, please help!

No, not the asian dolls. The dolls are American. They have little stub-things at the botton so that you can stick them to their plastic houses.

What year were they made, and approximately how big are they? It sounds like I should know something, but I need more info.

I think that's what she means, too. Wow, I used to love those things when I was a kid. Laughing

But she said they were big. And I think the new Little People have arms now.

They went through a stage where they just made them wider but didn't add arms. *shrug*

Weebles come to mind, but that doesn't sound quite right.

Oh, I have no idea. And I don't have any more information except for that I remember them. Embarassed

I think the ones I was thinking of were weebles. I thought they were bigger, but then again maybe they just seemed big when I was a kid.
