Show Notes
This week, we’re traveling back to 1976 to spotlight the icon, the legend — Cher ! ✨ Released by Mego , these fashion dolls were created to capitalize on the massive success of The Sonny and Cher Show 📺🌟
From multiple doll releases to an extensive wardrobe designed by the legendary Bob Mackie 👗🔥—plus several playsets—these dolls were pure 1970s glamour.
But all that sparkle came at a cost… 💔 Due to long-term design flaws, finding a Cher doll today in truly pristine condition can be very expensive 💸
We’re breaking down the history, the fashion, the flaws, and why these dolls remain such a sought-after collector piece. Don’t miss it! 🎤✨ Follow me on Instagram: @britneyspearscustomdolls or @iconicdollcast or on YOUTUBE: @Iconicdollcast
