That's wild. I don't know, though, it kind of creeps me out. :/ I can see how someone might find that appealing, though.

It creeps me out too, Kari. It's amazing how real she made it though. The starting price was $9.99 the winning bid was $3,051.99! She deserves it for all the work she must have put into it, but I couldn't imagine spending that much money on a doll. Wow!

Never in my life would I buy one of those, way too creepy.

yup - what she said!

I have to admit, they're cute - but they must be awfully hard to take proper care of. And I suspect they're popular with folks who need to masquerade as new parents for not-exactly-legal reasons. Not sure what to make of "real skin."

Love, Columbine

So they're actualy baby dolls that look just like your baby??
And what's with the "real skin"
That's kind of weird.

The artistic aspect of it is amazing. But my question is - what would you do with it? Unless you put it in a glass case or something it's just going to collect dust. That's the only thing that me. I mean, do you keep it in a bassinet in your bedroom? It's just kinda weird, IMO.
