That is probably the most realistic likeness I have ever seen in a doll!

I'd have thought that Apple was on very sticky ground with that...assuming that there's nothing overtly appley about the doll. All dolls probably look like somebody. I've seen plenty of other people's kids that look like they were born in a cabbage patch...and I bear a striking resemblance to Ken....as does my wife to Barbie.
