Only Hearts Club is made up of a group of bright, cute and energetic young girls, including Taylor Angelique, Olivia Hope, Lily Rose, Briana Joy, Karina Grace and Anna Sophia.

    Are you a fan of the Groovy Girls by Manhattan Toy? Groovy Girls are 13" specialty cloth play dolls designed for girls ages 3+. Manhattan Toy introduced the Groovy Girls in 1998. Groovy Girls are soft dolls with contemporary, removeable clothing. They are multi-ethnic, and reflect a diversity of hair and skin tones. They are funky, but not too far out for girls to want to play with them.

    Originally, Manhattan Toys just started with the "Girls" or dolls. Early lines used the same letter of the alphabet for a single series of dolls -- like Liza, Lucy, Lexi and Lupe in 1998. Other series started with other letters of the alphabet. Recently, the dolls' names start with different letters, even though they are in the same series. Some dolls stay in production for several years, and some dolls are introduced and then shortly retired.

    After introducing the dolls, Manhattan Toy began introducing related items -- like separate outfits, pets, furniture and accessories. Many of these specialty items were produced for a short while and then retired. In addition, some special Groovy Girl items were produced for special occasions -- like the Olympics, or for specific retailers -- like Sam's Club -- for a short while, and then retired.

    At American Artifacts, we carry retired and hard to find name brand specialty dolls, at discount prices. Some of the retired Groovy Girls items that we have in stock include:

  • Bedroom Bonanza, a 14 piece dollhouse playset, it includes fabulous furnishings and a Groovy Girl named Selia (released as Christmas 2006 gift set);
  • 2003 Myra Mermaid with Dorisa Dolphin, this pretty blond mermaid and her groovy pet have long been retired and are hard to find;
  • Dreamtastic Wedding Dolls, we have Jennibelle, Gavina and Melina, these theme dolls have also been retired;
  • Four Groovy Girl Outfits, all retired, including boarding call, Equine Divine, Born to Shred (Snowbaording), and Snorkel Scene.
