Betty Spaghetty was a bendable rubber doll from the Ohio Art Company.[1] She is portrayed as a fun-loving teenager or preteen. She has two best friends named Zoe and Hannah and a younger sister. Her features include rubbery hair used to let children make different hairstyles and changeable hands, feet, shoes, etc. The doll was targeted at girls ages 4 and up. Some models came with accessories, such as a cell phone, a laptop computer, and in-line skates.[2]

Betty Spaghetty was invented and designed by Elonne Dantzer[3] and licensed to The Ohio Art Co. and released in 1998. The doll was very popular during its launch, however the line was discontinued in 2004 due to Ohio Art's toy shipments falling to 15% due to weak retail markets and strong competition in the fashion doll market. But in 2007, Ohio Art announced that the dolls would return with a new look. The new Betty Spaghetty dolls were released later that year, but were discontinued a second time a year later due to lackluster sales. Moose Toys revealed at the 2016 Toy Fair that Betty Spaghetty would be sold as part of their brand in the fall of 2016.[4]

## Influence[edit]

Betty Spaghetty may have been the influence for the antagonist of the horror video game Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2, Mommy Long Legs. Like Betty Spaghetty, Mommy Long Legs has extendable and bendable arms.[citation needed]

Betty Spaghetty may also have been the influence for the doll-like, teenage inhabitants of Mount Rageous from Trolls Band Together, including the film's antagonists Velvet (Amy Schumer) & Veneer (Andrew Rannells).
