    Just pre-ordered Talking "Talky Tina"

    As creepy as having a talking version of this doll may be, I can't help but want her. This was always one of my fave eps of TZ since I was little. Too bad she can't move too, but it's cool enough she'll actually talk.

    No love for Talky Tina? That's just sad.

      I am going to puchase it but waiting a little on it as the release date is in July. My kids dont want me to puchase it but I have always like the figure from the twilight zone episode.

                    for those that want a non talking (hopefully) version, you can find the original Brikette dolls on ebay fairly easily. They are still pretty creepy if you have ever seen the TZ episode, tho.

                      We've already been told that BBP couldn't make a perfect replica due for copyright reasons(the Brikette likeness), but I'm still bothered that their version isn't 22", like the original. I bought a vintage Brikette and am putting the finishing touches on my own replica. It won't talk for now, because the original TZ just used a voiceover, but mine will move.

                        I've really been wanting to see that finished! Can't wait to see how it turns out.

                          I haven't seen that episode in ity's entirely in a long time. I did see most of it. It was on TV in the laundrymat I met my wife in. She was too nice for me to have had the nerve to say much to except Twilight Zone was on and I geeked out and asked to sit next to her on the bench.

                            First I'd heard that there was a copyright issue, but I, too, was disappointed that the replica will not be 22". Look forward to seeing your replica.

                              I'll post it, but where should I put it? Customs? Sci-Fi? Wherever is best, I'll go ahead and post the build thread from another forum containing the progress pics, and the finished product when it's done.
