Thanks for the pic. As I expected - a “toy” with oversized breasts and sexual organs. The arms and legs are so stunted that, if you put it on it’s back, it looks like a Christmas turkey.

I believe they’ve also determined that these toys were only played with on Tuesdays.

Because even back then, everyone liked...errr...a small cranium.

Maybe the package just deteriorated because it was made of perishable materials. ;’)

No way. My dollies never had boobs and a rounded belly like that. These figurines were for touching, to rub off some luck to get pregnant by.
