And you guys thought we we're collecting Freaks!!

[rw23]

You're very tolerant. There's no way I would want those around my house! I think if my wife wanted to start collecting these, I give up my entire collection just so she wouldn't.

Totally agree! No way am I having those stuffed babies in my house..............way too creepy!

 

[Ven]

amazingly realistic, but even I'd take a PF darkness over that..

 

[Nitro]

I've seen links posted for these before on a separate board. They are really, really creepy looking. When I first saw pictures, I thought of pulling the ultimate practical joke with one of those on my parents. Too expensive to do that though.

 

[rw23]

Oh that would be good, to pull that on the rents, to good.

 

[pjam]

Ewwwwwwwww!

 

[Darklord Dave]

Now Sully I could get behind, perfect companion for Darkness - but that first one is truly amazing.
I'd love to see a video tutorial on painting that one though.

 

[Bannister]

I bet you wish you had a few of those to flip huh Bannister? I know I do!

 

[Ryanfromindiana]

Eh, er, huh. Wow that is creeeeepy! Is that what happens when a real doll gets pregnant? Do you ever worry that they will kill you in your sleep? Crazy paintjob. scared. gonna try to sleep now.

 

[Darth Caedus]

I didn't read the thread or the title, just click on the link....honestly, I thought that was a kid on ebay, really really creepy.

 

[The Ringer]

WTF! Who would buy this creepy thing!

 

[The Ringer]

It would have to be cheaper to make your own baby.

 

[rw23]

The cost of dinner and drinks and you're all set!

 

[Darklord Dave]

It would have to be cheaper to make your own baby.

Yeah? Cheaper to make, but you can't mount a real one on a shelf and leave it there.

Well, you can, but then they come out and want to put you away...

 

[rw23]

Yeah they tend to frown upon that practice.

1. I don't want real kids so I sure don't want a doll that looks real.

2. That's freaking creepy!

 

[lcummins]

I find it hard to believe those aren't pictures of a real child! I almost want to see some kind of proof that is a doll...

The concensus here is that it's creepy, that's what I thought at first, like these things were gonna wake up at any moment. But seeing what they can do with a plain vinyl doll is incredible, these people truly are artists and I have learned to look past the fact that YES they are creepy, but they are also works of art. Just like our PF's and Diorama's and 1/6 Custom figures.

I too would totally love to see a tutorial on painting one and the whole process from start to finish.

I agree with you, I need to see some proof that it isn't a real baby. It is way too freaky to have around in my opinion.

 

[galactiboy]

Wow, That is honestly one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen. Its amazing how talented the artists are... but at the same time it gives me the shivers.

Personally I find the satanic/funny version much less bothersome... I think since its so over-the-top it no longer seems real. But something about life-like children is just off to me.

And like Batty said, if my fiance got into these I would gladly give up my collecting if she would abstain (but hopefully I could keep what I already have)

My wife recently got into collecting Custom made Baby Dolls

Mine's been collecting those creepy things for a while now. She's slowed down now, but it was getting out of hand for a while. I couldn't believe the prices people were paying!!!

She's even bought some and flipped them after the customizer became popular.
