20-foot-tall 700-lb. Doll

Yup you read that right. I remember seeing Mayflower’s commercial on TV and thinking "That is one incredible doll!" The commercial features a giant marionette which the workers pull stings to make her walk down the street.

So like mentioned in the article; Do you find it Cute or Creepy?

I found this very, very cute. :3

That really is cute. I noticed that her joints remind me a lot of the ones on Haruka and Riven. I think it's really cool though it must have been a pain to root/find a wig for.

I think she's really sweet. Her expression and the way it was shot is very beautiful. I didn't really know what to expect when i clicked the link but her movement is very lifelike and yes her little pink dress is super cute. I always like a redhead in pink.

Her name is Audrey, incidentally.

Here's the story of her creation:

I wonder where she is now...?

It's an amazing feat of puppetry, to be sure.

Otherwise, she kind of creeps me out. @_@
