Silvia Heszterenyiova makes reborn dolls that come with birth certificates and look real enough to be tutted over in shopping centres. While her passion may seem niche, she's far from alone.

Tiny heads hang from the ceiling of Silvia Heszterenyiova's small workshop while small arms and legs bake in ovens on the bench.Doll collecting remains a popular pastime, aficionados say, especially in the online world

They're not human, of course — they're doll parts, made of vinyl and delivered in a kit from the United States to the doll maker in Junee, in the New South Wales Riverina region.It's a painstaking process that takes her weeks. Ms Heszterenyiova's customers include women who want to relive their memories of having a newborn baby through a doll.

But it's not just lifelike or pretty dolls that make Ms Heszterenyiova's heart flutter — a whole section of her museum is horror themed."They're all cute to me, even if they have spooky eyes or little zombie teeth or look like tiny ghost babies," she said.

Here are some of the highlights of evidence that could bring the casino giant undone and usher-in sweeping changes to Australia’s gaming scene.
