Strawberry Shortcake Doll

Sometimes, when something becomes very popular in a particular medium, it’s practically a no-brainer move to spend a significant portion of investment money bringing it to another form of entertainment. Because of that, we now have numerous franchises. One such example is the Strawberry Shortcake series of products.

What started as greeting cards featuring the adorable titular character, Strawberry Shortcake, has since expanded to various mediums, including cartoon shows, posters, and dolls. With that said, it’s no surprise that the latter has become quite a sought-after item for kids, especially during its earlier years on the market. For one, their design undoubtedly has a childish appeal to it. With the first dolls debuting in 1979, their value has since skyrocketed to as much as a thousand dollars – pretty impressive for a doll that once could’ve been purchased for a few pennies.
