they are blythe dolls. They were originally sold in 1972 as “kenners” then taken off the shelves in that year because they were deemed too “scary” for young children. Now the original kenners are worth thousands and they are being remade and theres hundreds of different types. If you google something like “history of blythe dolls” there’ll be a more detailed history of them, they are really quite amazing, their eyes can change direction and four different colours with the pull of a string and there is a massive online community involving them. There are heaps of blogs, clothing designs, and flickr groups about them. 🙂
