In 2013, Mattel decided to revamp Midge's history, reintroducing her as a best friend of Barbie's, but unmarried, without children, and with no connection to Alan. The Happy Family product became the subject of controversy when some parents disliked the "pregnant" Midge toy because they believed that Midge was too young to have children. This was known as the Happy Family line, and in the set, Midge was sold "pregnant" with Nikki as a newborn baby. They also had twins who were never introduced. Midge and Alan had three children introduced named Ryan, Nikki, and Cassandra. Also in the period, Wedding Day Midge was sold, with the groom being Alan Sherwood, who had been marketed as Midge's boyfriend in the vintage years. The dolls sold in this time period usually had red hair, often with freckles, and her eye color was usually blue. Midge was re-introduced in 1988 as part of the play line, though two vintage reproduction dolls were made specifically for collectors in 19. No Midge dolls were sold for the rest of the vintage years after the 1960s. She was marketed as Barbie's best friend. Midge was created at the same time as Skipper. Midge Hadley is a fictional doll character in the Barbie line of toys by Mattel that was first released in 1963.
