Legally speaking, you need the permission of a celebrity – or their estate – to manufacture a doll in a real person’s likeness.
According to Douglas Hines, sex robot engineer for True Companion, Marlyn Monroe is the most-request celebrity sex doll.
“We cannot do one that models Marilyn Monroe,” Mr. Hines told the Sun, “But we could do a very beautiful blonde with a full figure and so forth.”
“Unless, of course, we receive the approval of (her) estate.”

However, some manufactures have come very close – a good example is Wonder Woman-inspired doll (pictured above).
