1971 Pillsbury Doughboy Vinyl Figure
Hey there, my ‘70s peeps (or anyone who still remembers how the ’70s smelled like fresh cookies and freedom)! How many of y’all remember the Pillsbury Dough Boy? I’m talking the original Pillsbury Dough Boy, not the one who starred alongside Michael Cera in a 1999 commercial for Pillsbury Cookie Dough.
What?! You didn’t know that Michael Cera was in a Pillsbury commercial??
You need to watch it HERE and you need to watch it NOW.
I’ll wait. . .
Now feast your eyes on this incredible blast from the waaay past: a genuine 1971 Pillsbury Doughboy vinyl figure straight from the golden age of advertising. (And perhaps from the gold age of Pillsbury!) Back when jingles were catchy, commercials were wholesome, and poking the Doughboy’s belly on TV actually made your week.
This little dough dude was made by Pillsbury in 1971, hailing from Minneapolis, Minnesota—a city that knows its way around baked goods. And can we talk about how iconic he is? With his jaunty chef’s hat and that knowing grin, he’s ready to remind you of the simpler days when you could eat a croissant without calculating macros. His blue accents give him that vintage pop-art vibe, making him the perfect addition to your kitchen, office, or wherever you want a side of retro cool.
Now, let’s address the obvious: he’s not perfect, but who is after 50+ years? I myself am 50+ years old, so I speak from experience when I say that no one - including vinyl figurines - is perfect after 50+ years! This is the OG Doughboy; I think he’s earned a few scuffs and scrapes. Think of them as badges of honor from surviving the disco era and being adored by countless hands that couldn’t resist poking that belly. It’s nothing short of a miracle that he looks THIS good! And yes, he’s still squeezable. It’s impossible not to smile when you give him a squish—he’s basically joy in vinyl form.
Collectors: This isn’t just a kitschy kitchen prop. This Doughboy is a certified piece of pop culture history. Perfect for fans of vintage advertising or those who just want to hold a little piece of their childhood in their hands. Imagine him perched on a shelf next to your lava lamp or beanbag chair, or better yet, as the centerpiece of your epic ’70s throwback collection.
So whether you were born in the 1970s or just want to live vicariously through one of the greatest decades of all time, this Pillsbury Doughboy is here to bring you back to the era of bell-bottoms, station wagons, and that sweet, sweet smell of crescent rolls baking in the oven.
