Almost there...

A while ago I had a Yeti doll made by someone I met on Etsy, the place where people go to sell homemade sweaters made out of hair and such.  I wanted to make some changes to the look of the doll, so I contacted another crafty person to incorporate some of those new ideas.  The result is to the left, and I will say this: we're getting close.

There are going to be some new changes - I'd like there to be a little more white fur around the face, and we might tweak the mouth a little, but I think we're maybe one step away from having a Yeti doll that can bear the name "OFFICIALLY LICENSED" at some point.  Yes, all of the letters will be capitalized.

Once these are done and I'm happy with them, I'll try to get them up on the website if it's feasible.  I think that if I ever sell one, though, it'll probably be at a convention.  It just seems to be more of a "convention" item.

Wow an A-Team reference? Wasn't expecting that. You serious about the hair? How do you find these websites? Dolls lead to action figures and action figures leads to dreams being fulfilled. Onward with the Doll!!

And I ain't getting on no plane!

What are your thoughts on the hair? It seems to me that if the head looked a little bit bigger, it'd be more proportionate with the rest of the body. I think adding some white to the head will accomplish that. But I'm willing to hear different opinions if you've got them.

Oh, and "You better not call me Scooter again!"

I can't believe I made it out alive in a converstion about bigger heads. I really like to body. THe head needs better detail and a bigger shape like you said.
