Growing hair and mod fashions seemed to dominate the seventies with Ideal's Crissy family. Another popular family of dolls was the Fisher-Price "My Friends" dolls which stayed on the market from the mid-70s through the early eighties. I have become very partial to these dolls because of their sweet faces. Ginny's popularity was at a relatively low point in the 70s. The rights to Vogue Ginny dolls were sold to the Tonka Toy Company and later to the Lesney Company. They introduced a complete makeover of the doll, what collectors refer to as "the skinny Ginny," in an attempt to rekindle an interest in original Ginny owners who were now mothers themselves. They hoped that these moms would promote the new dolls to their own daughters but these skinny Ginnys, though cute in their own right, just didn't hold the same charm as their predecessors.
