Oodles Final Page!
Believe it or not the name
"OODLES" came to me in a Dream! I never did
figure out what it might mean. Perhaps it referred to
how much money I hoped to make! If that was the case,
then the dream, most certainly, did Not come true! As
the Oodles dove into the great Toy Pool of 1986, they
must have whispered to each other, "Don't make
Waves!" As it turned out, They didn't even make
a Ripple!
There's a long story to tell
about how the molds for Oodles were
"stolen" and used to make and sell millions
of Oodles throughout Europe, where they became a
"rage" and we knew nothing about it, until
Hasbro introduced them here, calling them "LIL
BABIES". It was the Biggest Success we NEVER
HAD! But the story is too long to tell! Whoops! I
Just Did!
One of the worst things about
inventing toys, is that you can work for weeks on
something that will never see the light of day! One
of the best things about inventing toys, is that you
can work for minutes on something that will feed your
family [and your collecting habit] for Years! Alas,
knowing that makes you work all the harder, lest you
miss those few minutes, the next time they come
around!


The End...
