Description

Vintage Hasbro My Buddy Doll 1985
Hasbro discontinued the line before the start of the 1990s and Playskool took over production, making changes to the likeness and clothing.
The My Buddy doll line was a toy brand made by Hasbro in 1985 with the intention of making a doll to appeal to little boys and teach them about caring for their friends.This idea was both innovative and controversial for its time, as toy dolls were traditionally associated with younger girls.
The "official" song used in marketing the doll in advertisements was:
"My Buddy, My Buddy,
Wherever I go, he goes.
My Buddy, My Buddy,
I'll teach him everything that I know.
My Buddy and me,
Like to climb up a tree.
My buddy and me,
We're the best friends that could be.
My Buddy, My Buddy,
My Buddy and Me!"
My Buddy is one of several dolls said to be the inspiration for Chucky, the evil doll from Child's Play.
