It makes me so happy that this exists.

Hollie Hobbie! She was a little before my time, but I remember the wooden plaques with her picture on it still hanging in some of my friends' rooms.

Thanks to Toy Story this classic has made quite the comeback:
Mr. Potato Head! Such a fun design with the number for his nose, too.
Scooby Doo! WHERE ARE... oh. There you are:
