Re: WM Upgrades in the last year?
Irontech seems to be an exception, see here viewtopic.php?f=388&t=99210justintime wrote:It's not likely you will ever hear from many Asian doll makers here. They make thousands of dolls, a few are bad.Would be nice to hear from WM.
As long as they take care of those few bad ones. But it's like they will never get into it with buyers on a forum.
It would never be in their best interest, to get into a back and forth with costumes in an open forum.
People would jump in with all kinds of suggestions " why didn't you do this or why don't you do that".
Vendors are your best direct line to a doll maker. A good vendor can make all the difference in the world, with buying a doll.
Doll makers in the US are more accessible.
Now whether or not they follow through remains to be seen.
I will have to give them props for reaching out to the community. (unless its just smoke and mirrors or appeasement.)
But due to my nature, I do not trust corporate entities much.
I only hope that they will try and listen and do something.
Just like the shrugging shoulders. One company came out with it, then others... Now its an option for most quality dolls.
As far as the fingers... If it cost too much to do across the board, how about at least offer it as an "upgraded hands" feature?
Also, the one in charge of reading the forum requests has to put it all into perspective. There is a large "Wish-list" that person will have to prioritize the upgrades and present them to the engineers/designers or artists.
There is always a way, and until the Chinese companies realize what customer service is about, we will always have a problem.
just my thoughts and ramblings!

Ive PM'ed with a member whose new WM 157B had the first finger poke within the first week.Jakeelliot100 wrote:Also hardier finger construction which i am guessing is thicker wires like several other manf are doing. So it does seem WM is making improvements.

Re: WM Upgrades in the last year?
The areas I want to see improved are full hand skeletons with forearm rotation, squatting (double jointed knees), and consistent skin tone.
