Youdoo Doll

In order to become immortalised in doll form you need to be a movie star, a cartoon character or a member of a rubbish band. So how come several employees here at Firebox HQ have got their very own mini-me's? No, it's not because Orlando Bloom, Blazin' Squad and SpongeBob Squarepants work in customer service. It's because we've shipped in a load of Youdoo dolls.

These extremely cool stuffed dolls can be customised to resemble whoever you like (or dislike). How? It's easy. Each Youdoo doll comes with a transfer kit and a T-shirt and skirt. Simply print a photo of yourself, or anyone else you think deserves dollifying, onto the transfer sheet and then iron it on your Youdoo doll's head.

How to personalise your Youdoo doll:



Once your doll's face is in place you can get creative by printing off a design to go on your Youdoo doll's T-shirt. And if you're stuck for inspiration you can print off one of several über cool designs from the Youdoo doll website. But that's only the beginning because you can further customise your comedy figure by drawing on tattoos, adding piercings or even stuffing in some extra filling for a fuller-figured effigy. There's even a space on the funky presentation box to fill in your doll's name.

How to dress your Youdoo doll:



Just think, you can create a Youdoo doll of yourself, your other half, your best friend, your nemesis, your boss or even your favourite celebrity. The possibilities, both serious and comedic, are endless. We've seen Pete Doherty, Amy Winehouse, Paris Hilton, Noel Edmonds, George Bush and even a Youdoo doll of Barry Scott off the Cillit Bang ads. Genius!

An ideal gift for the egomaniac with everything, Youdoo dolls are set to become must-have accessories for 2008 and beyond. In fact we reckon they are going to be massive - and so does Deborah Meaden off Dragons' Den because she's invested 35K into the project. So hurry up and hit the Buy button - youdoo know it makes sense!
