Happy Family Midge & Baby

Happy Family Midge & Baby

Box has some damage

Midge was sold "pregnant" with Nikki, who was a tiny baby inside Midge's abdomen. This led to some controversy. Many people claimed that the doll was inappropriate for children, or that it promoted teen pregnancy and sexual intercourse. Another cause for this controversy was that Midge did not initially have a wedding ring, but this was later added. She also was packaged without Alan. Customers complaining about the doll led to Wal-Mart pulling the Happy Family line off their shelves. A new version of this Midge was produced for Wal-Mart, this time not pregnant and with a cardboard cut-out display of Alan and Ryan standing next to her inside the box. The Happy Family Line included everything from a talking house, a backyard swimming pool, neighborhood market, and playground.
