Are the legs floppy now? Just lost flex and/or mobility?

I added a face to my Venus Love Body by using the plastic face from a wig stand, like: http://shopluka.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/retro-personalities-styrofoam-plastic-face-wig-head-hat-stand-70346.jpg http://shopluka.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/retro-personalities-styrofoam-plastic-face-wig-...

Here's the eBay link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/17-lbs-Fabric-D ... 1c3c726ae6. And she's from Latvia. Hope they open a U.S. branch since some of us don't want to mess with customs.

Very nice design, but they don't seem to have openings. Prices and doll dimensions, clothing sizes are not mentioned.

$900 including S&H. No telling what import duty would run. plus, "This listing [torso] was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing."

But what a way to go!

scarecrow, where is the first link you posted about this doll do you have the link? also the body looks like it has a body suit on it , is that right? if so where did you get the body suit skin , or did you make it? looks like a good job on all this ! :D nice to have a wife that helps on a doll hob...

Neat work!

What would a trimmed perfect set cost?

Your wife is a remarkable lady.

Is the insert part of a milking machine? What's the rubber hose connection?

A knee flexing forward would really look awkward. Have had that problem since my first builds with other joints.

Just ordered a set and will test them over the next few weeks. I'm also experimenting with a quasi ball-and-socket joint for the hips.
