[ID: Princess Magic Touch] 1987 COLECO Pink Bird Cage ID Help :)
« on: Sunday 03 February 2013, 12:32 am »
An eBay seller included this cute birdcage for free in one of the auctions I won. They are unsure what it is, and so am I. Does anyone have any information about what this might be?

From one of my favorite toys in the 1980s, Princess Magic Touch!

It's Princess Magic Touch's charm.  If you hit the white bird at the bottom with her magic wand, the bird sings.  A magnet should do it.

Princess Magic Touch was awesome!  I had Princess Magic Touch, Fancy Magic Touch, and Twirl Magic Touch along with three playsets (Flower Fountain, Garden Swing, and Tea Table).  I loved the Tea Table.  The magnetic action worked extremely well on it.  I still have them in storage somewhere.

It's sad that I knew from the title of the topic what this was, huh?

Try taking a small refrigerator magnet and sticking it against the white bird symbol.  It may still make the singing sounds.
