A New IKEA Dollhouse?

This morning, I was contacted by a woman who wanted to know if I thought IKEA should make a new modern dollhouse with 1:12 replicas of their furniture designs. I'm not sure if she works for IKEA or not...however, I actually do think it would be cool--especially if they made some replicas of their modern kitchens!

I also think my opinion is irrelevant, but I was curious to know if others thought it would be a good idea (See poll top right). Thoughts?

UPDATE: 9/11/08
I'm surprised that there were more than 2 votes for the poll. Of course, it could have been the same 2 people voting 63+/- times. In total, there were127 votes with 99% saying "Yes!, build that IKEA dollhouse...IKEA!" and 1% saying "NAH, don't think it's necessary." I also received a few dozen emails that were positive about the possibility. Overall, I think it would be something that people would like to see (if done well) and buy.

  6. Ha ha! Susan, that's a cool idea for the packaging. Don't know if I could handle tiny Allen wrenches though.
