Collector quality Kidz n Cats dolls by artist Sonja Hartman are a collection of stunning dolls, not the least of which are their boy dolls. Two of the latest KnC boys are Alister and Jakob, recently joined by Robert. Kidz 'n' Cats have actually released a number of boys since their inception in 2011, with new ones released every year. Some of these may be difficult to find today.

Kidz 'n' Cats have several different face molds, with new ones occasionally offered. Both Alister and Jakob share sculpts with previous boys Mike, Tim, and Bobo. Robbie shares a mold with Limited Edition Phillip. Kidz 'n' Cats' newest boy Robert has a unique mold (so far).


KnC are 18" slim vinyl dolls with 11 (originally 9) points of articulation. They are proportioned very differently from many other 18in dolls in that they have longer legs and arms, and much smaller, less stylized heads. Their overall proportions are more realistic.


They seem to be as popular for adult collectors as they are for children, due to their beautiful, artistic design and complex articulation. Alister, Jakob, and Robert can be purchased from online doll retailers carrying the Kidz 'n' Cats brand or the secondary markets, while their earlier companions may only be found on secondary markets, if at all. Kidz 'n' Cats retails for a hefty $150-$170, although they can be much more expensive, depending where you buy.
