Ahhh, congratulations

Parumpapumfumf · 28/12/2008 13:25

Fark OOFFFF!!!! Nooooooooooo!!!!!!!

seriously?

LolaTheShowgirl · 28/12/2008 13:28

Honestly...hand on my heart. She feels like a baby and even her head flops back! Her hair and skin is like a baby. I gave it to someone for Christmas and the damn doll is making me broody lol. Probably because it never cries or does stinky poos!

If it is, is it yours?
I came across loads of reborn stuff when searching for prem stuff

TeenyTinyTorya · 28/12/2008 13:29

I thought it looked like a doll, but I didn't want to say

Blondeshavemorefun · 28/12/2008 13:29

and scarey so lifelike

reminds me of that programme on a while back of false dolls, and how ladies pretend thereare real and put them in buggies etc

Oh gosh is it a reborn?

Flihgtattendant · 28/12/2008 13:36

Who did you get it for?

FrannyandZooey · 28/12/2008 13:40

oh darn it, i read posts before looking at photo
would have loved to know if i would have been 'fooled'
i find these reborns very interesting and would love to see one in RL
there was the most amazing one on ebay recently, it was stunning

AnarchyInAManger · 28/12/2008 13:42

Sorry but..........

Its revolting [shudder]

What is it for???

Why on earth would anyone want one?

FrannyandZooey · 28/12/2008 13:44

people always say that
i don't know why
we all like holding babies don't we? and this feels like a real baby
i can imagine very clearly why people would like to have one

TLESinChristmasStockings · 28/12/2008 13:44

Anarchy...am going to upset people but i too think they are revolting!

LolaTheShowgirl · 28/12/2008 13:44

it was for my lovely friend and yes I think its called a reborn

FrannyandZooey · 28/12/2008 13:44

i wonder if the problem is the uncanny valley

TheTwelveDAISYofChristmas · 28/12/2008 13:47

aha, but note my lack of "she is gorgeous" comment . Didn't realise it was a doll, though just an ugly baby, and wondered why you were posting it in AIBU....

scarily lifelike, and just a wee bit creepy.
