Troll Doll Figurine Appraisal

Troll Doll Figurine

This item is a troll doll figurine, likely a collectible item given the tag still attached. It features a grotesque, yet charming, facial expression with a prominent, large, and ruddy nose. The mouth is open, revealing small, uneven, and somewhat sharp-looking teeth. The ears are noticeably large and extend outwards from the head. The figure has a full head of dark, shaggy, and wild synthetic hair, giving it a dishevelled appearance. The body of the troll is depicted in a standing posture with short, thick legs and small feet. It appears to be wearing a minimalist, possibly one-piece, garment that is primarily a muted, olive-green color, with some areas showing a lighter, skin-toned hue, suggesting either exposed skin or a very form-fitting outfit. The material appears to be a hard plastic, resin, or vinyl, with a textured finish to emulate skin and clothing wrinkles. The overall color palette is earthy and subdued, focusing on natural skin tones and greens. A tag is visible, hanging from the figure, suggesting a brand, possibly 'WARRANT B' or 'DAM,' though the full text is not entirely legible. The condition appears good, with no visible significant damage, chips, or cracks, though the hair might have some minor matting due to age or handling. The style is indicative of popular troll dolls, which were particularly prominent from the 1960s onwards, with revivals in later decades. This specific design leans towards the more traditional, somewhat 'ugly-cute' aesthetic often associated with Scandinavian folklore figures.
