My little sister has been raving over getting one of these old dolls for a while. She was supposed to be of average proportions and everything (coincidently, my sister’s proportions) and wants one. Since she is graduating soon I want to get her one; however, I haven’t been able to find one on the net (including Ebay). Does anyone have any clue where to buy them?

Maybe there’s a doll collector’s site that would know something?

The only other ones were Norma Jean sex dolls. Somehow, I don’t think that was the one your sister was looking for.

Ah thanks for the help so far. The Norma Jean dolls aren’t the same. This one came in a pair of Norm and Norma and they were supposed to be dolls with realistic proportions.

[Get Real Girls](http://www.getrealgirl.com/) were the closest that I was able to find. (the site has music.)

Still not it. The Norma doll also looks eerily like my sister. She showed it to me in one of her sociology textbooks. 😕
