h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A433324

This is one of those entries where I could keep writing and writing for more and more pages, so I've just made myself stop. I think I've reached the point where any more information would really only be of use to the diehard collectors - and I've linked to some good resources for those folks.

Anyways, what do y'all think? Is there stuff I'm missing? Do I need to shorten it some?

Thanks in advance for any input (or for that all-important recommendation from a scout)!

Wow!
Can't think of anything else to say about that,
some lucky scout has a pick made!

Oh, and out of curiosity - how many CPKs do you own Mikey?

I have 3, myself. At one point I had as many as 30 in the house, but that's because I was refurbishing them to donate to a shelter for abused children. They were all excited because it was the first time they had received Hispanic, Asian, etc. looking dolls.

This article is well written and thorough.

You certainly have my recommendation, for whatever it's worth.

Barton

Well done Mikey. I thoroughly enjoyed this one.

Hi,
I enjoyed your article on Cabbage Patch Dolls, but you totally left out the small Cabbage Patch PVC Minatures and Poseables. I have a large collection of these and think they are wonderful. I don't know the names of any of them since I didn't buy them new. I know one group came out in the early 80's and others in 1990 or 91 - there was also a McDonald's promotion of them in the late 90's. I'd love to see a listing with pictures and names of these adorable little figures.
I could help out by sending pictures of what I have, their production years are on their bases. I just don't know what their names are.
Let me know what you think. You can email me directly at [email protected]
Thanks,
Carole

Hi, my name is Eva and I live in Spain. I have a CPK that my parents bought me in 1985, I don´t have the papers. I´d like to know if there is a page where I can look up her name and know more about her. Can anybody help me? Thanks
