HELLO DOLLY
Although
not a news piece as such, an interesting ditty was received at TUW this week
concerning a Number Six doll which had been produced a few years ago for the
Mego
Toy Museum.
Writes producer and maker of the doll, Brian Heiler; "I made Patrick McGoohan Prisoner dolls a couple of years back. It caught the attention of his granddaughter who ordered one (I gave it to her) it was given as a gift to Patrick who declared it his favourite gift!"
"Sean
Sansom sculpted the head. Sean is a SFX artist and has worked on movies like
"Cinderella Man" and "Dawn of the Dead". He at one point
made a model kit of Number Six that some collectors might own."
With thanks
to Spencer Peet and Brian for this news item.
