Do you remember the original tiny world of Polly Pocket? In this week’s episode, we dive deep into the history, secrets, and surprises behind this iconic toy with Maude Campbell, author of the upcoming book The Legacy of Polly Pocket: Mattel's Micro Moneymaker. Join us as we explore how a simple button inspired inventor Chris Wiggs to fashion an iconic toy out of a makeup compact. Learn about the transition from Bluebird to Mattel, the ups and downs of Polly's size changes, and the enduring love fans have for this miniature wonder.
It all began with a simple idea – the concept of a miniature world that could fit in the palm of your hand. This idea, however, was far from simple in its execution. Polly Pocket owes its creation to the ingenious mind of Chris Wiggs, an inventor who found inspiration in an unlikely place – a makeup compact.
Join us in this episode of Making It In The Toy Industry as we meet a fellow Polly Fan who felt inspired by her collection to research and write a story of Polly Pocket. In this episode we celebrate the enduring charm of Polly Pocket and all of her secrets and surprises.

  • Learn the heartwarming story behind Polly Pocket's creation and the special father-daughter relationship that inspired it.
