Cabbage Patch Kids are a line of one-of-a-kind, cloth dolls with plastic heads first produced by Coleco Industries in 1982. They were inspired by the Little People soft sculptured dolls sold by Xavier Roberts as collectibles and registered in the United States copyright office in 1978 as ‘The Little People’. The brand was renamed ‘Cabbage Patch Kids’ by Roger L. Schlaifer when he acquired the exclusive worldwide licensing rights in 1982.    Source: Wikipedia, Youtube
