Rotational molding can be dated back to 1855 as a process used to create a metal product, actually. The Sun Rubber Company is credited for starting it. They were producing rubber balls and hot water bottles before using plastic to create hollow doll heads in 1955. Rotational molding continues to change and grow over the years. Perhaps the greatest advantage of rotational molding is that you are able to incorporate many parts into one. This saves time and cost. The greatest disadvantage is that there are not a lot of resin options to choose from. However, the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.
