I was just talking about this with a friend and he looked it up and found it online. I had searched a few years ago online with no luck and started thinking I'd imagined it!!! I had a blue and white one and it was one of my favorite toys, that YES, I could play with for hours and hours! Thank you for sharing :) Wow!

It was also my favorite toy, and your entry captured its fascination wonderfully. I wanted to find one for my son - I think he shares the sensibility to get "lost" in its magic like I did!

She just gave it to me today, but the sand is all stuck! I'm so upset! Does anyone know if the sand can be loosened again? The magic window toy is awesome!

I remember just one doll, one that had hair that you could pull out of her head to make it longer, and sadly, my sister cut the hair, thinking it would grow back. <b>Heather</b>, I never knew there was any other colors than blue and white. How fun. I echo your *sigh* because I don't have mine anymore either; I wish I did. <b>Tipper</b>, thank you. I don't know why I wasn't a big doll person. Maybe because I had so few? But I had a stuffed animal, a dog, that I LOVED more than any doll. <b>Mrs. Darling</b> thank you! <b>Sarah</b>, hey, you're a 70s child, I'm surprised! But I don't know how widespread this thing was. My aunt in Michigan sent it to me, and but for her I wouldn't have ever heard of it either. Becky, I would have been amazed at a doll that walked, too!

My dad had the blue and white one and I was so excited the year I got a pink and purple glow in the dark one! I played with that thing for YEARS! I had a pile of glow in the dark toys that I would play with at bedtime--it was the only way I would go without a nightlight. And then my kids played with it. I wonder which move we lost it in. Sigh.
