Found This Today - Battle Troll


Went to the yard sales today - about 12 of them. Only found one troll...this Battle Troll for 5 cents. Maybe I'll have better luck next weekend.

BIG 24" Tall Russ Vampire Troll


Here's another BIG one! I'm so happy that I purchased this one. Now I have 3 trolls like this - the Santa, the Clown, and now this Vampire. It's a cute Vampire and in perfect condition. Made by Russ Berrie and labeled Russ Berrie UK.

The Fixer Uppers - the Two-Headed Troll


I've decided to go ahead and show you all the fixer uppers I was talking about. It may be awhile before I repair them. I don't really want to use standard troll hair. I'd like to purchase some Mohair. When I do fix them I promise to add a picture. I'm still super excited that I now own a two-headed Wishnik troll.

Assortment of Trolls I Received Today











I received all of this troll stuff today...

1. Two Uneeda Pixie Trolls. Uneeda is the same company that makes Wishnik trolls. See how the Pixies have troll bodies. These are from the 60s.

2. Elf troll - made by a generic brand but cute.

3. Total Trollers Talking Keychain - nice that it's still in it's original packaging. I've included an extra picture of the back of the package.

4. Magic Troll - this one is different than the one I've shown previously. That one was holding a cookie.

5. Peekin' Zeke "Your Computer Pal" troll - this one is unique. I've never seen another like it. This is the reason I purchased this box of trolls. Pretty cool, huh?

6. Battle Troll - still in the original colorful packaging.

7. Snack Sacks Reusable Troll Bag - in perfect timing for Earth Day...

8. Norfin Troll Chalk Wizard - it got crunched in the mail. It's nose and foot is broken and has other chips on it.

My total for all this stuff was only $13. Not too shabby.

Princess Troll - Penelope

I just got this cute troll. I had been wanting her for quite awhile now so finally decided it was time to add her to my collection. She's a princess troll made by Russ named Penelope.

Shrek's Newest Movie Poster Features A Troll


I came across this picture of the newest Shrek poster and a troll is on it. How cool! Thought I'd share it with you all.

Goodbye Winter Months - Hello Sunshine...








Well I have to admit I was having a dry spell finding trolls for awhile there. Those cold winter months mean no yard sales and no outside vendors at the flea markets. But behold the sun is out and Spring is in the air and my troll finding luck continues...

Today I am showing the trolls found last weekend and today at the yard sales and a local flea market.

Stay tuned for 4 vintage trolls (including my first two-headed troll). They are fixer-uppers and I have to add new hair, eyes, and clothes but when I'm done you'll get to see before and after pictures.

The Ganz Troll that is still in it's box is my favorite of all the trolls found. My husband found it at the flea market. I
♥ my husband so much! Isn't it a cutie?

I even found a rug made out of troll hair. Pretty cool, huh?

The Cutest Little Troll


I've had a hard time finding trolls at the thrift shops here lately. But the other day I got lucky when my hubby found this cute plush Russ troll. It was naked though so I found this cute dress to put on her and now she's a real doll! I think she's cuter than some in their original clothes. What do you think? A pink princess?

Forest Trolls



Here are my Forest Trolls. They are just too cute! I love their rounded ears.

Rock Troll


Here's a weird little thing I found at a yard sale last year. It's a rock troll. The hair is yarn and everything is painted on with a glittery paint. It's very detailed and kinda neat.

Super Trolls Islands SNES Game


This is a Super Trolls Islands Super Nintendo game. It is actually a lot of fun. Basically you choose your troll and collect the fruit from the trees and walls. You have to avoid touching various obstacles and can throw stuff at them.

I'll try to remember to make a video of this game next time I hook up my SNES system.

It's very colorful.

Troll Trading Cards

Here are two boxes of Troll Trading Cards full of weird and fun cards. One is Classic Trouble Trolls cards and the other is Topps Trashy Trolls cards which are a troll knock-off from the Garbage Pail Kids. There are also stickers in the box. The box itself is really cool because of the real troll hair on the troll.

Troll VHS Tapes

Here are two troll VHS tapes - Magic Trolls and the Troll Warriors and Super Trolls. I also have two Trollies VHS tapes not pictured because they don't have their covers.

Dam Girls

These trolls have Dam on their feet but no marking to determine what year they were made. They are wearing felt clothing so I'm thinking 60s, 70s, or 80s. The hair is mohair like.

On a side note, thanks to all of you who follow my blog. Stay tuned for more trolls...

Norfin Trolls Bag


This is a really colorful Norfin Trolls bag - made in 1992. It has handles and a one big zipper compartment. They look like the trolls from the Norfin book series.
