the doll dilema

OK, so have you ever noticed that there are some really fabulous dollhouses out there, but no dolls to go with them?  I'm talking 5 bedroom 3 bath mansions with secret towers and working lights, and all the dolls look like they're either on death row, or they just got a shot of Novocaine at the dentist. then there are the "custom" dolls. these are cool, but can run you a ton of money, plus they're out of the country so you never know what shipping will be. some of the dolls I've seen will continue to haunt me, faces that look like some knife-happy gang banger of a sculptor came across them in a dark alley and thought hey, no one will miss this nose, or notice that this one eye is two inches lower than the other! i don't mean to rant (ok, maybe i do) but i am fed up looking for the perfect doll..(or at least one that doesn't look like it wants to strangle me in my sleep) at this point, i think I'm better off just having an imaginary doll family, better than having those creepy faces looking up at me when I'm trying to sleep at night.

p.s.
if anyone (namely my sister who is probably the only person reading this) finds half decent looking dolls, let me know!
