Leggys
"High Fashion with a Kick!"
By Euphrates


It seems like every time I discover a new doll to collect she ends up
being Hasbro and hard to find.  Leggys certainly fit that description.


These 10 inch hipsters, from '71-'73, earned their name because of the exaggerated 
length of their legs.  The overall appearance of the dolls are somewhat similar to 
the Flatsys line by Ideal.


The dolls had swinging one syllable names like Jan, Kate, Jill, Nan and Sue
and came dressed in brightly colored mod clothes like bell bottoms and halter tops.  
Some of the designer clothing and accessory sets that you could buy seperately were:
Polka-Dot Party
Plazzo Pants, Tank Top and Hat
Pink Peek-a-Boo Gown and Stole
Plaid Knickers Outfit
Star Spangle Dress and Stockings
 


Today, Leggys generally fetch $15-$30 each loose and $30-$45 carded.  The clothing sets can still be 
had for $15-$25 MOC.  You can also find Polistil cards from Italy for a little less.
