...the closer to God! I found this site because Andrea saw this wig and thought of Mick.

After poking around the site, I realize why the stock looks so familiar. Given the problems of scale, these 1:1 wigs on 1:1 heads look very similar to 1:6 scale wigs on 1:6 scale heads. Any time you try to do curls, waves or any sort of updo in 1:6 scale using 1:1 wig hair, it inevitably results in something that looks like pagodas or minarets formed by hairspray. Check out pretty much any wig on Monique Trading Company's site for reference.

Yep! I'm always amused by 1:1 things that look out of scale on humans. Have you seen these zippers? http://gear.orgxiii.org/ And coat snaps amuse, me, too http://www.enasco.com/product/WA21015H (So, if I were ever inclined to make a human costume to look like a doll, it would involve a giant wig, over-sized zipper or snaps, and heavy interior decorating cloth with a huge print...)

Don't forget the stenciled-on makeup and the equally out-of-scale jewelry. Someone could rotocast doorknobs, and they would be pretty accurate in 1:1 as the size of 1:6 earrings compared to 1:6 heads.

Those zippers are begging to be made into some sort of conceptual clothing.
