My big plans for 2022 took another step forward last night, I can’t wait to share the results with you!

Today’s exhibit was made by Good Stuff in 1999, the same as the Richie Rich doll we saw back on Halloween. While it may look similar to the infamous “Happy Houday” doll, which was also from 1999, it is much larger. Early Merry Christmas from Wendy the Good Little Witch and the Harvey Mercheum!
