Big Daddy Doll, Straight From the Bioshock 2 Trailer
April 13th, 2009
BioShock 2 doesn’t even exist yet and already the artisans of the world are hard at work on the sequel to 2K’s alternate-history title. A doll fashioned to look like one of the game’s Big Daddy characters was shown in the sequel’s beautiful (and creepy) trailer, and now that same doll has been recreated in loving detail.
How cute! I could almost forget that he probably wants to kill me and just give him a big ol’ squeeze. The best thing? This adorable doll doesn’t include the sense of horror and foreboding I get with the trailer.
Haven’t seen the referenced trailer for BioShock 2? Climb out from under that rock and give it a watch.

What do you make the eyes//body out of?
According to the post, she made the entire thing out of yarn, except for the “portals” (eyes?) which were made out of buttons.
I used a body from an old (plush) doll and screwed on the head. It’s more secure this way. Plus, the head sort of hangs in front of the body making it look more like a Bouncer. For eyes, you can use thumb tacks (Home Depot sells silver thumb tacks). However, I used these concave silver washers and nails (also purchased at Home Depot). Makes it look more rustic and authentic. You insert the nail in the washer and hammer it in slowly. This way you don’t have to worry about thumb tacks falling off. For wires on head used wire hanger. Difficult to shape but very firm. Mine is almost finished. Just need stupid raggedy ann legs to come in the mail.
pretty cool i wanna buy one or make one myself!
You guys know they have these put know by the Bioshock 2 brand right? Yes i know this article was made a long time ago.
