Functional Dollhouse Television

Dok's Emporium sells these fully functional 1/12th-scale model televisions for use in doll houses. They take a standard composite input to display reruns of Jem and the Holograms (or whatever you like provided it is truly outrageous) on the 2-inch screen.

You can buy one yourself for £99, provided you live in England.

And this being the UK, if this little toy is classed as "Equipment capable of receiving a television signal"*, you'll need a license for it too. That'll be £139.50 please, as this is a colour set.

* It's not. This is a joke.

I vote for Supermarionation!

I know a dollhouse collector in England who must be informed of this immediately!

(So is it PAL-only, then?)

£99 is alotta shekels for this thing, but for the non building inclined types I guess thats market rate until competition comes along.

Gotta wonder though why its an old style TV and not what would look like a wall mount flat screen. That would be easier to build and look cooler IMO.
