    I know Y'shtola is a beloved character. I know y'all love collaboration and branding. But seriously, if y'all can change the Sage icon because people have a holes phobia, you can stop bombarding every single person who logs in with this horrifyingly eerie uncanny valley doll face. There was an evolutionary reason that humanity has a deep seated fear of things that look mostly human but aren't imprinted into our genome. You're disconcerting more people than a hole phobia here. Make it go away.

    Nothing about the doll is "Uncanny Valley" The term "Uncanny Valley" means something that is just slightly off looking perfectly normal, but that slightly-off difference causes the observer to be disturbed in some way.

    Nothing about the new collab doll is even close to qualifying as "Uncanny Valley"

    Yup, the doll looks mostly human, but def deformed and inhuman (both by virtue of it being a doll and by it being done in an anime style) in ways some may find uncanny.
    Term fits even if you personally don't find it uncanny.

    It's not my style (or my price range, holy hell), but I don't see how it's uncanny valley.

    It's really well-made, my only issue with it is that it doesn't look like Y'shtola.
