The RealDoll is a life-size sex doll (also considered a mannequin) manufactured by Abyss Creations in San Marcos, California, USA, and sold worldwide. It has a poseable PVC skeleton with steel joints and silicone flesh, which is advertised as "the state-of-the-art for life-like human body simulation" [1].
Female dolls include realistic openings in their vagina, mouth and anus suitable to simulate sexual acts. Male dolls can include a penis of varying size and flaccidity, based on the buyer's specifications.[2] A RealDoll is relatively expensive averaging $5000 and up depending on what accessories are selected.
