DH Dolls

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us


Coming in the new year The Alexander Doll company will be producing a line of dolls based on the characters of Desperate Housewives. The dolls, measuring 16 inches in height, will be available at higher end doll retailers sometime in 2007. These dolls will debut in the Spring 2007 issue of Fashion Doll Quarterly.

Madame Alexander was an American entrepreneur who created the first "collectable" dolls based on a licensed character - Scarlett O'Hara from the book and movie Gone With the Wind. She also is credited with making the first mass-produced dolls in honor of living people, with a set of 36 Queen Elizabeth II dolls to commemorate the 1953 coronation celebrations in Britain. Most recently, in 2002 two Judy Garland portrait dolls were introduced. Other popular dolls have been 'Pussycat' a large baby doll dressed in fine coat and dress and a Mary Queen of Scots Portrait Doll as well as Heidi and a series international dolls in native costumes.

And before someone says "they don't look like them!" these dolls do not use unique sculpts exclusive to the actresses. They used previous sculpts from the company with facial features meant to look like them.

My mom got one of those for my dog after my other dog died.

You can't turn it off unless you take the batteries out.

That thing is fucking creepy. It's still "breathing" after a month.

I didn't know it breathed, until I was on the couch last night by myself and I was like, wtf is that noise, and I looked over.

[info]scarletswidow 29th-Dec-2006 05:34 pm (UTC)
um.

why would anyone want to buy a DH doll?
[info]anthony Re: wow they can double as The View dolls29th-Dec-2006 05:36 pm (UTC)
There's a market for everything. If people will buy pet rocks and singing fish they'll buy dolls based on a popular TV show.
[info]hawaii_bombay 29th-Dec-2006 05:34 pm (UTC)
LOL Those are some fug dolls.
[info]hawaii_bombay 29th-Dec-2006 05:37 pm (UTC)
And I wonder if someone would use Eva's doll as a dildo.
[info]bad_jew 29th-Dec-2006 06:30 pm (UTC)
Well, obviously. Felicity Huffman's doll just won't do.
[info]modelgroupie 29th-Dec-2006 05:36 pm (UTC)

[info]citizengwen 29th-Dec-2006 05:50 pm (UTC)
i can only pick out the red head and the business woman. is the other blonde edie? i think the blue dress is gabrielle but then that would mean the other is susan. these are terrible. they should have had McFarlane do these.
[info]hardtogetover 29th-Dec-2006 06:14 pm (UTC)
yes, they definitely need more points of articulation.
[info]ifyoudont 29th-Dec-2006 06:38 pm (UTC)

The Bree doll looks like Mya Rudolph
[info]swimmerbuddy90 29th-Dec-2006 06:50 pm (UTC)

[info]cdsdralion 29th-Dec-2006 06:58 pm (UTC)
It's the nose and the mouth to me. I think moreso in that first pic rather than the larger pic.

Huh?

Whatever, those dolls don't look like them.

I loved my Marie Alexander dolls as a kid.. I hated that I could never play with them though I just had to keep my grubby little hands off them and watch them sit in their boxes looking beautiful too bad these dolls are ugly as hell
[info]nicknolteshair 29th-Dec-2006 06:23 pm (UTC)
My mom used to collect franklin mint dolls. They stayed in boxes in the closet and if I had touched them, I would have been killed.
My favorite was the Ice Queen from Narnia. I still love that doll! LOL

My mom was such a big collector than when she bought my sister and I barbie dolls, sometimes she would buy two and keep the 2nd in its box. I have a lot of collectors items now, which is pretty cool.
[info]fixed_slang 29th-Dec-2006 06:22 pm (UTC)
they all have the same face and different hair
[info]swimmerbuddy90 29th-Dec-2006 06:50 pm (UTC)
That's what I was thinking!
[info]bad_jew 29th-Dec-2006 06:31 pm (UTC)
