Toys facts-yup they're back due to absolutely no demand whatsoever
Cabbage Patch Kids
The dolls, which were first launched in 1978, are the official mascot of the US Olympic team.

Rubik's Cube:
Despite the notoriously difficulty of the 1980 puzzle, "speedcubers" have made a sport out of solving the Rubik's Cube as fast as possible, and as of 2015 the record stands at 4.9 seconds (and no I never solved it myself)

Beanie Babies
In 2000, a royal blue Peanut the Elephant beanie baby, one of the rarest made, was sold at auction for almost £2,500!
