A SPECIAL REPORT: TOYS

BARBIE BACKLASH: ‘Tis the season to buy toys for your tots, and the most refreshing retail success story comes from Doll City U.S.A. in Orange. . . . Although the shop is firmly ensconced in a county that celebrates the surgically enhanced body, Doll City’s top seller these days is the “Happy to Be Me” doll, a more realistic model of the female anatomy than the Barbie doll. . . . Doll City sold 200 in their first week on the shelves. Other toy stores also carry them.
