The arrival of Prince George has the Commonwealth in the grip of commemorative merchandise frenzy with memorabilia ranging from weird to wonderful, tasteful to tacky.
The latest royal baby collectible item we’ve come across would outplace any piece of china in the proudest of royal watcher’s collections — an incredibly life like replica of HRH himself.
The doll, expected to sell for thousands on ebay was created by Australian company Celebrity Dollhouse.
Replica George’s description boasts “incredible human-like detail”, is even dressed in the same swaddle he was wearing as he emerged from hospital.
