I just got this response from the Robert Tonner website. Can't wait... I'd love to have a plus-sized model in "Barbi*" size; Rosie just didn't do it for me...

we are in the process of working on a 12" emme :-)

watch our website for information in the future

I have heard rumor on the internet that you may be producing an Emme doll in the 11 1/2"-12" size range also. We 11 1/2" fashion doll collectors would love to have a doll like that. There are sooooo many of the skinny models out (Barbi*, etc.) It would be nice to have a doll in a more realistic size for us in the over 40 collectors group. Thanks for any info you can share...
