My Buddy (doll)
The My Buddy doll line was a toy brand made by Hasbro in 1985 with the intention of making a doll to appeal to young boys and teach them about caring for their friends. This idea was both innovative and controversial for its time, as toy dolls were traditionally associated with younger girls. Hasbro also introduced a companion Kid Sister marketed toward girls. Hasbro discontinued the line before the start of the 1990s and Playskool took over production, making changes to the likeness and clothing. My Buddy is one of several dolls said to be the inspiration for Chucky, the evil doll from '' Child's Play''. The doll was jokingly depicted as My Stalker in an episode of Adult Swim's ''Robot Chicken ''Robot Chicken'' is an American adult animation, adult stop motion, stop-motion animated sketch comedy television series created by Seth Green and Matthew Senreich for Cartoon Network's nighttime programming block Adult Swim.
