Some people say that Barbie is a bad influence on little girls. Obviously those people have never seen the Living Dead Dolls. Now in their tenth year of production, the Living Dead Dolls, or LDDs as fans call them, are the most popular line of specialty dolls in the world. Mezco, manufacturer of the dolls, just announced their 17th series. An amazing accomplishment in the world of toys!
The collection includes dolls named the Hook, the Vanishing Hitchhiker, the Unwilling Donor, the Spider Bite and Bloody Mary. They're packed in coffins and come with accompanying death certificates.
I’m ordering a set for my nieces today. I’ll let my sister worry about their therapy.
