In 1984, Coleco start the Preemie line. They are about 2" smaller then the Regular full sized kids. Coleco
only made them in headmolds #1, #3, and #4- with strict eye/headmold combos. The matrix at first was: #1 blue eyes, #3 green eyes, and #4 brown eyes, with lemon or tan tuffs, or bald(AA preemie had dark brown tuffs).
But during the coleco/hasbro transitional times, they were even smaller, and rust red and cream tuffs were added, AND the
following headmolds: #2, #9, #18, #20, and #21. Here are a few, from my own collection....
