Earlier this year we covered the release of Emma Megitt's award winning Pee and Poo Dolls. Now I see from Cool Hunter that the Pee and Poo Doll online store has launched. Sweet. Now you can purchase your own Pee and Poo dolls for just $32.
According to Emma's dissertation "The soft cuddly toys Pee&Poo elegantly integrate form and function in a playful and disarming manner. Their design idiom not only appeals to children but also flirts with the adult designer toys market."
