Rare 1981 Kenner Glamour Gals Store-Counter Display Set (Product No. 69241) featuring an incredible piece of pre-production toy history: Two Authentic Factory Prototype/Test-Shot Heads!
This unique archival lot is an incredible find for serious Kenner, prototype, or 1980s fashion doll collectors. Because store-counter display materials were intended to be discarded or sent back to the manufacturer after promotional cycles, surviving examples are exceptionally rare—let alone sets paired with internal pre-production tooling elements.
LOT INCLUDES:
- 2x Authentic Factory Prototype / Test-Shot Heads:
- Female Head: Features hand-painted facial detailing. The top of the head is completely smooth and uncarved, as it was never rooted with nylon hair. Stamped on the neck with the early corporate parent mark: © C.P.G. 81 (Consumer Products Group).
- Male Head (Greg): Sculpted molded-hair variant head, showcasing early paint/casting trial work. Stamped with matching authentic factory marks.
- Original Factory Doll Shipping Tray: Houses 15 vintage 4.5\" Glamour Gals dolls in their original designated slots. The dolls feature clear corporate stampings (© C.P.G. 1981 HONG KONG) on their lower backs.
- Complete Instruction & Layout Documentation: Includes the official \"Glamour Gals Doll Display Instruction\" assembly sheet and the paper pedestal placement map. These fragile paper sheets are incredibly crisp and usually the first things lost.
- Display Support Elements: Includes the structural cardboard backing shell and early plastic layout pedestals.
The small box that says \"GG Prototype Heads\" only shown, and will not be included. Please examine pictures before buying, I will package and ship carefully. Thanks for looking!
