It's kinda pricey, but it's cute, except for his eyes, the eyes don't look right to me, the doll looks scared or something.

Heehee! I've had a set of Beach Boys dolls for years and years...  Grin

Made 'em myself, of course! More along the style of bobbleheads, without the bobble.

If you hit it in the ear does it say "Hello, Mr. Wilson"?

$ 75,- for the regular and $ 150,- for the limited edition... So basically Brian's now selling autographs for $ 75,-... That's really below him, he shouldn't do that...

The last picture looks more like Brian from the 80ies.

It'd probably be just as animated as the real Brian.

I was going to say it'd have just as much presence, only the one thing Brian Wilson does have is presence, he's got it in spades.

This doll is a joke, just like Brian's management. Out of all the unreleased music and footage they have and their negotiating power, what do they decided?

"Well, the fans want a Smile box, Pacific Ocean Blue re-release, new Brian album etc, so we'll give them a crappy doll! That'll solve EVERYTHING! How clever are we! We'll give the fans something they never thought they'd want! Pass me another pile of dollars so we can have a money fight!!!"

I won't be purchasing one, can you guess??!!

I'd say that if Brian approves of the doll, it's fine.

You know, there are only going to be 300 signed ones. When Brian is gone, those things are going to be worth a fortune. I don't intend to buy one and hope that the people who do aren't in it for the money. I'm just saying that it's funny how a doll that gets so ridiculed now will probably become a sought-after object in the future.

I couldn't believe it when I saw it! What next? The Brian Wilson dinner service set? Or how about Brian Wilson "Pet Sounds" Choco Breakfast Cereal, relive the times and excellent music through our breakfast cereal!

Urrggh, what next David Leaf & Co?

I'm sure it will become a collectors item, and will be worth a lot of money. But who'll buy it? Only a Brian Wilson fan, and the ones who want one will have purchased it already. This is like when Princess Di died, loads of crap being produced. Except Brian hasn't...

I think they should have just had the 300 signed ones and said, "The first 300 orders will get an autographed doll" for the same price.
As for the doll thing, I don't think it's worth complaining over. Some people really want it.
I think people spend too much time and energy criticizing Brian's management over things that aren't worth criticizing.
