William and Kate Royal Wedding Dolls Are Terrifying
Okay, so we all remember when the Franklin Mint put out the Kate Middleton Royal Engagement Doll. It’s pretty, if not entirely necessary, and for the low, low price of $195, you can have your very own vinyl Kate, dressed elegantly in that blue dress we’ve all come to know and love.

Granted, it’s only £34.95 (roughly $57), so perhaps it’s understandable that it would look a little cheaper than the Franklin Mint’s doll; but really? $57 for this?

And they are TERRIFYING. See for yourselves after the jump. More »

It was at this point that I usually ran out of the room screaming my little five-year-old head off. More »
