Realdoll Body 9 retiring
Moderator: TJ_Foxx
Heavy hootered dolls will always have a valued place in Dolldom because they appeal to a significant percentage of potential buyers looking for a doll. The problem is that these dolls have traditionally tended to be the heaviest and, because of their ponderous boobs, the most difficult to maintain.
However, I am confident that these problems can all be overcome with enough creative engineering. Already we are hearing about dolls whose boobs will use embedded air capsules to lower boob weight while maintaining squeezability and the weights of dolls are steadily coming down.
I think we will all be VERY amazed at the dolls that will appear THIS year and next. Despite the loss of the B9, this is truly one of the best times in to be developing an interest in obtaining one's first doll....

And: For my Doll, it was not simple to obtain the size 75 E (German size) bra's. I needed longer time to find a shop offering this size in different implementations. Even bigger cups as "E" I didn't find on that occasion either.
I believe that B9 will return in a newer and qualitatively better implementation.

Well, the first problem with this body type... It's a very bad seller to tell you the true and beside that it's heavy also and don't worry, B3-B8-B10 would retiring soon!

1. Doesn't sell well
2. Gets damaged much more easily than any other body type
3. Too difficult to manufacture (those boobs make pulling the doll out of the mold much harder than any other doll body)
We do not have plans to reintroduce the B9 in the future, even after we finish making all the dolls weigh less.

Too bad for us large boosom lovers!
That's a shame, but you have to do what makes sense for your business. An enhanced B9 would have been my preference, but I suppose I had my chance.Abyss wrote:We are retiring the B9 for the following reasons:

At that time I decided a B5 would fit the bill and if not, go for a B5 with the breast enlargement feature. It was B5's small ass, and the weight issue, that finally kept me from getting it either (heavy weight and the high fragility was never a good combo for me in a sex doll). Still, I often stilll dream of getting a B5/F11, it's a very hot doll that I would love to have.
I'm glad I got a RSSD Lollypop, it only weighs around 10 lbs and is great for sex. I will definitely look forward to getting a Ruby 13 foamy when it comes out (hopefully at 40 lbs or less). I hope Boy Toy comes out with a megaboob doll, the smaller size of Boy Toy should make it possible, a kinda Wendy Whoppers or Brianna Banks size doll, petite except in the chest area! If they could get the price down around the Ruby 13 range and increase the mouth's depth (5 inches should do it, instead of the current 4), I could go for a doll like that with the soft inserts (a very yummy masturbatory aid!) - it was an excellent idea to use soft inserts on the Boy Toy, I stuffed my Lollypop with them.
Farewell B9 - a monument to mammaries (and the great ass of a B7). Thanks for trying so hard to please us Abyss, and thanks for feeding into our unusual psyches, it's been alot of fun watching the progression in this hobby brought on by the good old capitalistic competition going on.

I'm don't believe Dollscrazy actually said that. In fact his statement was:
Code: Select all
Well, the body type B9 will be offer to ordering for a couple weeks from now... So make your order fast, if you really like this body type! In the case of body type B10, B8 and B3 retiring gone a be only at the end of 2009...
His statement above is actually a conditional statement. "In the case of" would have been more accurately translated to "Just in case"
If you look at the context of his discussion he is essentially saying that weights of dolls have been for the most part on steady decline adn he feels that customer demand and technology is phasing out the heavier dolls. I also know he holds both RealDolls and BoyToys in high regard.
Sometimes the language barrier can result in conflict where conclict never existed. I recently joined the French Doll Forum where out of respect, I prefer to write in French, however poor it may be. I also check my French with a translator and then Back Translate. Yet after all this, I am sure my posts appear more like the English Version of the French Taunt in Monty Python's Holy Grail
If you haven't seen it, you should. It will give you a great insight LOL

BTW, The French Forum has greeted me with nothing more than the best of camaraderie and is an inspiration tome to both better my French and to perhaps make my documentary available in French as well.
