Vintage Avengers and The Goldbergs: Dolls are Indeed where you Find Them
I recently caught an episode of the original avengers involving charm bracelets, and a talking doll that ran an organization of women who assassinated bosses who didn't pay them fairly. What a use for dolls and minis! Then, The Goldbergs this evening featured 80s robot toys like Transformers. I love these sightings! Also, a bit of doll trivia, as it were; two films that were nominated for Razzies this year, one of the Transformer films, and Teen Aged Mutant Ninja Turtles. Spoilsports!

Thoughts on Choosing Dolls
In one of my more curious moments, I had a thought; how do you choose dolls for your collection? I would be interested to know. You can write to me here, or at collectdolls@aboutguide.com. For myself, I am very eclectic, and choose dolls based on type and variety. Sometimes, a doll catches my eye, and I just can't forget about it and I have to go and get it. It does not have to be an expensive doll; there just has to be something about it.
Handmade dolls and unusual dolls captivate me; they are a never ending testament to how vast the human imagination is. They say something good about us as people, even if these hand made or primitive dolls are not pretty.
So, I would really like to know, and will post answers, with permission, on my blogs and on Facebook. For ideas, see my boards on Pinterest, too.
Happy Doll Thoughts!
