Sophia born on 22 Jan 2008

BelShanar · Post by **BelShanar** » Mon Jan 21, 2008 5:14 pm

I just got the birthday e-Mail from Phoenix Studios!

So Sophia will be made tomorrow, and shipped some time in the near future. With that e-Mail it becomes official that Boy toy Dolls are/have gone into production.

As for Sophia, I think that having an age/birthday ascribed to the doll will help with creating her personality. As such, Sophia's birthday (story wise) will be January 22nd 1981 which makes her 26. Old enough to know what she is doing and be considered a full grown woman, but still young enough to be the ultimate party girl when the mood strikes her.

I think that her age will be something like Big Bird, or Bart Simpson, who are forever 6 and 10 respectively. Sure, they have been around forever, but they never get older.

Congratulations BelShanar!

Sophia will be wonderful, I'm sure. Interesting to give her an exact age. It will make her birthday that much more special to you.

Now the wait.

Thanks Mahtek.

As I have said in other threads, I am not very good at bringing a doll to life or give her personality. So the exact age thing should in theory help me with this. The more details I can use/give the easier I find it to make her come alive!

Congratulations, Belshanar.

Does that mean they actually ship a birth certificate with the doll, or is that what the email is for?

Now all you have to do is think of a name, and buy some clothes, and find somewhere to store her, and... etc etc

Actually, I've done nearly all of the things I can do to prepare for Sophia's arrival, including ordering some new lingerie for my dolls.

Since she isn't my first fill size doll I already have a lot of the prep work done. About the only thing I have left to do is to get a new (to me) electric blanket. The one I currently have works great for me, but its not that good for heating dolls up.

And yes, this is very exciting news!

Congrats! Really looking forward to your pics/review.

Instead of an electric blanket, you could go with an electric mattress pad... I've got one with seperate controls for each side of the bed, its pretty sweet. Also gets much hotter than any electric blanket I've used, even on the coldest nights I can't usually handle my side being set higher than 3 or 4 (goes up to 10). 6 or 7 will heat a doll up pretty quick, with a blanket over her to trap the heat.

Like everyone else I am glad to here things are progressing for you. I am also looking foward to reading what you have to say about her and seeing pictures of course. I hope she is everything you want and makes you very happy in every way. Looking forward to your future posts.

BelShanar,

The creation and delivery of Sophia, is one of the most eagerly awaited events, here at The Doll Forum. Good luck with her early arrival.

Daydreamer,

I know it will not be a true/official birth certificate, but I expect that one will come with her when she arrives.

There WILL be a certificate of authenticity that goes with all Boy Toy Dolls, according to the FAQ on the website. I'll be sure to include a pic of it when I post the pics I take.

Since we're still deciding tween a Realdoll and Boytoy (for our "first" purchase..and BTW..I resent any inference that she is exclusively a "boy's toy LOL) I'm real interested to see the "temporary quarters" Sophia travels in and how she compares for "hanging out" in the quiet times. I am also very curious about the eyes. If they're indepently moveable, she might wind up a little cross-eyed at times?

I just got the confirmation e-Mail from Phoenix Studios!

Sophia was born a healthy Miss February Boy Toy Doll on January the 22nd!

Now all I need is a shipping date, and all will be well.

Well, once she arrives that is.
