Comments left:	Playskool updated its RV camper several times. 1970, '72, '76 and into the 1980s. A Playskool toy which has really gone up in value is the 1977 Gilligan Floating Island. Originally $7.50, now worth $300 complete and boxed. This toy was based on the 1974 "New Adventures of Gilligan" cartoon show, cancelled by ABC after two seasons. Only Gilligan, Skipper and Mary Ann figures came with it. In the cartoon, Mary Ann was sloppily dressed, and drawn to look 15 years older than her Dawn Wells counterpart, plus she bore an attitude the original Mary Ann did not. Filmation voice artist Jane Webb-Edwards voiced her instead of Wells. The Island toy could be played with on water or hard surface.
