Made in a makeup compact. Bluebird originals: $300-$2,000. Mattel ruined the scale.
Chris Wiggs made the first Polly Pocket in 1983 by putting a tiny doll inside a makeup compact for his daughter. Bluebird Toys produced them from 1989-1998 before Mattel bought the brand and made the dolls bigger (ruining everything, according to collectors). Original Bluebird compacts in good condition sell for $50-300, but rare variants — like the 1992 Fairy Wishing World or Jewel Case — can hit $500-$1,500. Sealed-in-package originals exceed $2,000. The tiny scale was the whole point, and Mattel never understood that.
