| At the same time as her 1972 release in the USA, Blythe was also marketed for the Japanese under the name "Mahou no Hitomi AiAi Chan" which means "The eyes of magin AiAi Chan" and licensed by Tomy Corp. toys. The doll was basically the same with some discreet differences, like shiny eyelids, softer hair and 7 lines of writing on her back instead of 6. Her packaging and outfits were completely re-designed; to no avail though as AiAi bombed at the Japanese market just as Blythe did in USA. AiAi Chan is extremely hard to find these days and insanely expensive. Scroll down to see the amazing AiAi girls... |
