[ID: Oodles ] The name of these babies - its driving me crackers
« on: Wednesday 01 September 2010, 01:31 am »
used to have these plastic baby toys.  id say a few inches in size.  im pretty sure they came in a packet which u cudn't see through, so you didn't know what you were getting until you opened it.
they were nude and made of hard plastic.

found a video on you tube that showed them, link is here if it works

The earlier ones were Oodles they came in clear packs the unknown ones in the packets you couldn't see through were called "lil babies" I collect them both (only need 2 if anyone can help also would love a lil babies leaflet)

here's a link to a lil babies auction on ebay and also an information site I found on them.
