The creator of the dolls Mananya "Mama Ning" Boonmee, says the dolls are gods and they are special because they are "infused with a child's soul."

Many God dolls have been adopted by celebrities and earnest individuals who believe these factory-manufactured dolls will bring them blessings and wealth.
