I thought it was funny that the kid in the advertisement you played decided to wish cherry cough syrup really tasted like cherries, rather than wish for his cough to disappear.

I remember loving the 2005 version of Trollz dolls. The cartoon was so amazing. Theme song ate, tho.

Thank you so much for doing this video. Trolls will always have a special place in my heart. My grandfather loved them and I would buy them for him. He passed when I was 15 leaving all the ones I gave him to me. I treasure them to this day. My daughter and I love the trolls movies and I love sharing something special I had with my grandfather with her as well as so many songs I grew up with.

Wait, I was waiting for you to mention Zelfs because I thought they were related to the trolls. But now I'm assuming they're not and I just grouped them in together lol

Zelfs are definitely troll adjacent, but probably are different enough to not break any laws.

I had trolls in the 60's. They were probably not the Dam trolls because they were called "wishniks". They were supposed to bring you luck if you stroked their hair. My mom - who made a lot of my Barbies' clothes - also made tiny outfits for my wishniks. She even made the most adorable little bridal gown with a small bit of satin, some lace and some sequins. Funny the things you remember 😊

This was a fantastic video, thank you Joey for all the research you did. I still have a troll from 1966. I was 10 then, my Aussie cousin bought her for me at the Woolworths near my home. The troll is unmarked, and has grey wool hair, so I'm hoping it is a Dam troll. In second grade we played with our troll dolls at every recess and lunch break, posing them in cave attire in their "cave" carry cases. Those were fun days. I love the trolls, I'm glad I've kept mine.

I grew up with the original troll dolls. To say they weren't fashion dolls leaves out the fact that you could buy separate outfits or patterns to make clothes yourself. There was no mention of Uneeda trolls which had their double horseshoe logo molded on the bottom of their foot

That Troll Barbie jingle lives in my head rent free! I'm so glad you included her/ them. I wanted one so badly as I collected trolls. I was Troll Barbie, 😆. I even had Troll jewelry. I loved my Troll earrings. The treasure trolls were my favorites. I got a multi pack from Sam's Club (warehouse store). I don't remember having Trolls with clothes. I wasn't a Beanie Baby girl, I was a Troll girl.😊❤

That was fun! I was a kid in the early 90s. I remember the Russ Trolls being everywhere- just rows of them at the grocery store. I remember kids bringing them to school. I got a handful of them myself back them- a bride and groom and a baby and a cheerleader wearing my elementary school colors that my mom bought me when I graduated at the end of 5th grade. I still have them. My mom even has a couple small ones that have sat in the front window of my childhood home for over 30 years since my parents still live there.

I have a deep appreciation for the classic Troll dolls from the late '80s and early '90s - their original designs truly captivate me. In my view, those eras represent the pinnacle of Troll doll creativity, showcasing some of the most iconic and well-crafted designs in the entire Troll doll line. Although I used to own a substantial collection of these trolls, sadly, many of them have been misplaced over time. Despite this, I recently rediscovered one of my cherished Troll dolls, reigniting my fondness for their nostalgic charm. Furthermore, my admiration extends to the Troll dolls from the '70s, '80s, and '90s. In my opinion, these decades produced the most remarkable and timeless designs in the Troll doll universe. Their unique aesthetic and character make them stand out as the epitome of Troll doll perfection.

Scooping in when I see someone talking about my special interest! I have just a few mini blind bag ones and two larger plushies (all hasbro and... they just say dreamworks XD) but holy crap the rabbit holes I've gone down on designs and looks and types I know nearly everything there is to know about the original dolls and the first movie and all their versions over the years. These movies are the absolute best and these dolls are my favorite thing possibly ever. Also funnily enough you didn't mention the first 3D onscreen appearance of Troll Dolls was Toy Story, which was also happens to be Barbie's onscreen debut as well! My personal favorite are the colored hasbro and mini russ dolls, and people make amazing customs as well that are really cool. I'd also love to get a softbody sometime soon because I have a few Cabbage Patch dolls and I just love that build. Thank you so much for this video!

Definitely was prime age in 1992 for trolls. I was in the Australian fan club and had some pretty interesting ones. My favourite was a green and gold one that said "Troll for PM" for the Australian election. Mine were all Russ, I believe, but as someone of Danish decent, I had no idea about Dam Trolls, and would love to get one.

I owned one of the wishing gem trolls as a kid. Don’t know what happened to it. I’m a fan of Dreamworks Trolls too and own a couple toys of Poppy who’s my favorite from the franchise. I initially had a plush of Branch because I thought he’d be my favorite when I saw the trailer and vice versa with my main bff with Poppy, though they did like Branch’s humor that we saw in said trailer. However after we saw the movie we both ended up switching on who our favorite character was so I gave my Branch plush to my main bff as we left the theater.

I always wanted troll dolls but wasn't allowed to have them because in Hispanic culture, trolls are duendes and they're known to kidnap children. 😐 But I was able to buy a tiny pencil topper with green hair at the student store at school, that I would hide from my parents. 😋

There is one type of Troll action figure I wish you would have talked about that wasn’t as aggressive as the others: the Teenager Mutant Ninja Turtle Troll action figure. I know this existed as I had one of them and I think it was either Leonardo or Raphael. It was just a TMNT action figure with rooted Troll hair in the turtle’s signature color. They are supposedly rare and I literally never see anyone talk about this crossover.
