TrollsNewest Review: ... came clothed but I think some of the old trolls were clothed some not. Modern Trolls yes there has been a comeback are made by a firm called DAM I think but am not defiantly sure DAM produced the first Trolls. Some Trolls come with guitars and wild coloured hair sporting sunglasses; in fact they come in an assortment of dress and colours. I have seen small 5cm naked Trolls advertised on ... more |

I can't quite remember my first ever troll. I remember getting a couple of tiny troll pencil tops for a birthday present, and a baseball bat-wielding troll from my mum, which she bought on a trip to the States. There are many different makes of trolls. The most common one is probably Dam trolls, which have the "Dam" trademark stamped on their feet. They are the original Scandinavian company which started making Trolls. The UK/US toy company Russ soon caught on and began making them too. There were also a lot of fakeries, but they all looked pretty much the same to me. Some companies claimed that if you rubbed a troll's hair and made a wish, it ... Read the complete review

Ever since i was little I have loved trolls . My grandma kept one of my dads trolls when he was younger and i used to play with it every time i visited her . That really inspired me to collect trolls . Of course i wasn't going to collect any old trolls they had to be either Dam or Russ . Have have about 60 and now because i'm at university my mum has put them in a box beacuse she is sick of dusting round them . I have little ones , big ones , softbodied , ones baby ones , bride and groom sets , father christmas ones , all with varing hair colours .
