    Hi, Heidi! No, I am NOT greeting her. I thought of her as "Hi Heidi" - she's a doll from my childhood. Neat. Congrats on your find.


    I didn't know she had ethnic friends. Go, Heidi. (That's in "go girl" go.) I'm not rejecting her ;-D

  2. Thanks D7ana, Heidi is saying "HI" I knew about Jan but was surprised when I found the picture of the AA Heidi on the net. Others on the net weren't sure if she was made. But now we know she was!

  3. Awesome childhood doll! I have a few that the buttons are stuck in and was wondering if there was someone out there that can tell me how to unstick the buttons so she waves again! Would like to leave them working for my grandchildren! Any suggestions would be wonderful!!! Very sturdy doll!
