    Desperately seeking Toy Doctor .....

    I have had a cabbage-patch style doll for 20 years now and would love to give it to my baby girl to play with... but the doll is in really bad shape with its legs and arms falling off (barely hanging on with duct tape for the past few years).

    Can anyone please please please think of somewhere I can get it fixed? The body is cotton (stuffed) and legs and arms hard rubber. I came across a Toy Doctor in HK mag a few weeks back but he is forever unreachable....

    I would really appreciate any help. I have searched all over HK and overseas but the only place I could find that fixes toys is in the UK with a waiting list of several years....

    Thanks so much everyone.

    i just saw an article headline in today's(10/19) south china morning post, about a toy doctor who does toy repairments for his clients. i didn't read the whole story so i can't give you any other details. but i'm pretty sure that he is the man that you are looking for in HK. good luck!

    yes it seems he is based in Central,but sad they never give the exact location
    Maybe you can call up SCMP to trace him out

    I think the shop is called Toy Museum and is on the 3/F of Prince's Building. Try asking there.
