String Doll Gang ® characters each have a tag with their name and special power. Each handmade doll comes on a lobster clip with a round keyring and can be used as a backpack or bag charm, keychain or ornament. The keyring parts can also be removed so allow the dolls to be used as action figures. “We…[use] strong tags (ours are fabric and not paper) and a strong keychain (ours is a lobster clip as opposed to a ball chain, which can open unexpectedly, causing the doll to get lost),” Christopher Daniels, of Kamibashi’s Web department, told TDmonthly. Launch date: May 2006.
