After long (LONG!) consideration I have narrowed my search to a choice between a Sanhui and a JM doll. Before making the final choice I would love some advice from those more experienced among us if you're willing.
I am looking for a small doll with stiff joints, ideally in the 110 - 125 cm range, that doesn't look like a child, but also does not have ridiculously over-sized breasts. A doll that looks like a proportionate young woman, but is easy to store and handle.
In the past I've had:
* 65 and 75 cm:

Both were too small
* MLD (too hard and lacking detail, and a crap skeleton)
* 100 WM - body proportioned wrong - too thick for height, not really like an adult:

* Virgin Rode Doll - That was a great doll, but still too small/short and lose joints:

I have also had the 156D and 140D from WM. Loved them both, but I can't afford the storage space and the tax on my back when moving and washing and so on.

I find Reiko (120cm):

most attractive and best fit for me, but I can't find it on the Sanhui website, so I assume it is out of production.
Price is a consideration too, but not the ultimate factor. And there are so many choices!
So the 88:

vs 92:

cm are VERY close in size, but $200 apart. Why?
The 92 vs 102:

The attachment Sanhui_102_Lisa.jpg is no longer available

are almost the same price, yet 4 inches in size difference. Again, why?
Between 102 and 118:

(a little over 6 inches) there is a $600+ difference, so there must be some other considerations besides height that come into play.
Is there still a safe vendor that anyone knows of that still sells the 120 Reiko?:

How does Reiko compare to the newer 125cm Sarah?:

Pricewise Sarah, Reiko and Elfie seem to be in the same ballpark ($1500-1600). Are there significant differences in skeleton construction or material used?

Does anyone have any experience how any of these (over 100cm) Sanhui little ladies compare to JM Dolls' 110cm Lucy or Joey:

Are there any other 110-125cm models with stiff joints and relatively normal size boobs (ideally scaled b or c cup) worth considering?

I know these are a lot of questions, but I also know there are many very knowledgeable elders on this forum who love to share their expertise, and it is greatly appreciated.

For those reviewing this old post, they may want to take a look at the JM 105cm if they haven't seen her already...

JM killed it with this one.

Take a good look at this pic and you'll get it.

They didn't know about it because it didn't exist a year ago. This is an old thread.

LOL! You're right! Didn't see it was posted Feb 2018!! (wish TDF would give more time to delete posts!)

I've owned both the Sanhui 92cm and 120cm. They're VERY small, so I wouldn't recommend them unless the weight issue is a priority.

Greetings boinky and contributors of this thread, I've been considering the purchase of a JM 65cm- 75cm doll and/or a Sanhui 92cm doll. I've been bouncing around TDF searching for some comparison photos of these exact dolls and happened across this thread. Seeing the dolls side by side and having other forum member's insights has helped narrow my selection. Just wanted to express my appreciation. Cheers!
