About to see what I can purchase. Like to do some research before parting with the dosh
yep, its a minefield.
my advice is :
(1) decide the material. TPE or Silicone
(2) decide th maximum weight. These girls can feel twice their advertised weight.
(3) decide the skin tone.
(4) Decide the manufacturer of choice.
I can help out with TPE advice but I know next to nothing about Silicone. Historically the materials didn't mix at all (no longer true of all blends) and in order to keep my girls safe I have stuck with TPE (which I am VERY! happy with).
My view is that rticulated hands are more important that gel breasts.
If you go TPE try to stick to the better manufacturers such as WM, YL, OR, SM, SE, JY, AS, AF, 6YE, Irontech, Doll Forever, Dollhouse168, Piper... There are a few others ncluding some new kids on the block. Run your selection by us first.
Trustworthy vendors for bespoke girls are :
The Doll House
Silicone Lovers
Cloud Climax
For girls where you chose from what they have rather than what you want then there is also Lucid. But if you buy from them check the description carefully and of late there have been quite a few cases where the girl in the image is not the girl being sold so always run it past us as someone here will generally know who the girl in the pic is and whether that matches the description.
If buying from them then their ranges from decent manufacturers are:
Soulmate (SM (which actually stands for Shang Mei))
Racy (Irontech)
Allure (6YE)
Sugarbabe (JY, AS, AF)
They also have Firedoll who are made by ex Jinsan (WM, YL, OR) employee's.
As I say though, you buy what they have and if you are intending for this one girl to be your one and only that may be a false economy.
There is also Kimber Doll which is a good quality basic doll at a realistic price. Only issue there is tht the difference in price between Kimber and Lucid isn't that great so Lucid give more choice. Just be careful what you buy. Preferably visit the warehouse to view your girl first.
I'm sort of making Psions point here about the length of my replies aren't I
