Disney Wants To Turn Your Child Into A Creepy Doll

August 8, 2012
Business Insider/The Wire
By: Michael Izzo


Excerpt:
Disney's latest venture is turning your children into customized princess dolls.
….
Through a process called "D-Tech Me" which Disney previously used to freeze guests in carbonite during "Star Wars" weekends at Hollywood Studios, guests (sorry, only ages 3-12) can have their likenesses imprinted on a 3D 7-inch Disney Princess figurine.

Just for point of reference here, I put "creepy" in the headline because that's how it was where I found this story.
I don't necessarily think it would be creepy myself. In fact, if it was done in a tasteful manner it just might be a neat gift for a little "princess." I'm quite sure we all have a "princess" or two in our lives. I know I've got a few.

It looks to me like this is more of a figurine than a poseable doll. If it is, then $100 seems an awful lot for a sit-on-a-shelf dust collector. Most of them don't look toooooo creepy to me.
