Monique
Monique
I had been a member here on the doll forum for a while and had finally got the chance to post my review and display my Monique for all to see here.
I received her this year May 19th as she arrived via UPS. the box was pretty beat up but thank god Patrick had wrapped her in plenty of bubble wrapped so there was no damaged at all to the doll. I had first put down a deposit back in Dec 09 and made payments to Patrick until she was paid in full by April.
Now here is my review:
Shipping
could of been better, but I blame UPS for mishandling the box , but all and all no damage to the body. the only mishap was a bent eyelash of the eye and Patrick gladly fixed that for me. the body was wrapped in a sheet and plenty of bubble wrap. I find it easy to move her around if you have an office chair that is adjustable in height and you can just roll her from room to room. or the i just pick her up facing me with my hands under her arms. I'm not a tall or big guy. I'm just 5:6 and weigh 150 lbs and have no trouble moving her around but keep in mind she still is dead weight . after unwrapping her I gently powered her with some baby powdered which made her skin feel even more softer.
Face:
Bella head since I could not make up my mind between her the Eden , so I went with the Bella face with dark lipstick and brunette wig.
Body :
Bathing beauty of course , let me just say this is truly a work of art . so realistic looking. I got her with French manicure nails the hands and feet do not have any wire in them so they do flop around a little . the details in those are so stunning , I also went for the big bean clit and yes I was the first one to request that and now I hear is a big hit for Patrick. the insert is removable and easy to clean . and the feeling is very good , her butt is just the right sized for me . not too big nor small.
Boobs: who could ask for better looking boobs , perfect for her body they are not hard nor ultra soft but firm with perky nipples and will not sag. the only minor thing was her big toe nails fell off and I had saved those which can be easily glued back on , other than that she is flawless!
Here are some pics: and my gallery can be seen here most of the pics were taken just last month so people could see that there are no damaged.

Storage:
I had mostly kept her locked in the spare bedroom lying down on the bed and sometime sitting on a pillow in a chair since it is easier to move her around like that. unfornately I had not paid much attention to her since I had been busy taken care of my elderly parents whom are not doing well (especially my mom). on top of that my sister is going through a bad divorce and will be moving in with her kids right after the New Years which leads to me either putting her in storage elsewhere or selling her, so I had decided to sell my Monique as she will be listed in the Buy and Sell part of the this forum.
I regret that I have to do this , but I rather see her go to a nice home and when things settled here I can always purchase another PIB

Re: Monique
toonist is keeping ahead of the game.
and even though some may have sold their doll hang in their and you will be able to rebuy a lighter doll with the same great qaulities toonist is coming to the rescue.
Re: Monique
Inognito I did not want to put her in Storaged either since I do not drive and would have to get someone to drive me to and from , storage her in NY is much higher also. but I would not want to do that to the doll. I did find her a new home , it was sold to another member on the DF.
I am a big fan fo Patrick's work. and I will one day purchase another PIB when things settled down here and my sister moves out, but it wont be for a while.
