Review of my IronTech 155cm with Jane head (Izabel)

My review of IronTech 155cm with Jane head (Izabel), after about 5 weeks of newbie experiences.


Hello! :) I´m a middle aged german guy with no previous doll experiences. Tried bits of handy TPE toys like a Meiki and PDX big hip though. Never had any probs with RL gals (beside usual hassles that can happen in any relationship), but was just curious about feel and usability of that TPE that I read quite often about when browsing the net as most guys do I´d guess. Sooner or later I stumbled on doll related sites, vendors, manufacturers and some XXX although rather rare yet few years ago. Didn´t take long and I was most appealed by that more and more real looking plastic gals, not just for my sexual desires but also simply looking at female prettiness like is any passionate admiring of arts, like pictures, landscapes or favorite music.

This also was the time I discovered TDF (around 2013/14 I think) and thanks to much of its content beeing public I got more and more attracted to the idea of purchasing a TPE doll rather sooner than later. But prices was the main reason I knew I had to reject this idea for still some time to come. In the meantime I started saving money for something I needed for my household, although it wasn´t of that big of importance that I couldn´t wait for buy a lil longer. Then not long ago (early 2019) I figured that doll prices weren´t that far off from the money I saved already and then became a single guy again. :P :D Quite suddenly I felt the need to check some various doll vendors (outside TDF) again and see what I could possibly do with the money I´d on hand right ATM. Figured lots of 15x cm dolls were barely in range and at last settled with investing my money right there before I´d start thinking twice. So it was a 6ye 150cm head 17 redhead I´d decided to try from a german vendor at ~1100 EUR. As I still had bits of doubts on my possible decision I´d sent some email with question to this vendor. Well.... I´m waiting for an answer until today (it´s 3 months gone). While waiting I took the opportunity to register at TDF at last.

It didn´t take long til I got first vendor PM incoming just after making a few introductory posts here. Among those was Shane of IronTech and I became most surprised not just by that quick contact, but also to that irresistible offer he made. I´d seen IronTech dolls oftenly in the net before and the 155cm in particular remained stuck in my mind and heart. That Anna on white couch promo made me factually fell in love with it.

But prices.... well, not without an additional half year of further saving. :( Yet Shane (of IT) got me hooked and convinced I do not need to wait nor save any longer. So a "dream" came true. An IronTech 155cm and right now! :)

After bits of negotiations on doll details and head (decided for the lovely "Jane" one) my order and money went out on 29th of march.

After that most exiting waiting phase (will shipping and customs work smoothly, how would she like be, considering future dress and accessory purchases...), she finally arrived on april 24th. That was way sooner as I´d hoped. XMas time. :)

The UPS guy helped carrying to my apartment and there then stand that big cardboard box. The moment was almost unreal, but I tried to keep calm and precede in a "professional" manner. Grab some opening tools and keep the cellphone at hand for first pictures.

Unboxing:

Comparing box and content with factory pic, the box quite apparently was openend during shipment, most likely at customs. Sloppily repacked, the wig off its bag and otherwise not that orderly. After getting off all the packaging materials and her in sitting stance I soon figured to my dismay one her feet got damaged. One the bolts at the foot sole poked through the TPE to the outer rim quite obviously from a strong force. Whether it was from wrong storage during shipment or anything else I just can guess. But I know for sure she didn´t leave IT factory in this condition. Oh well. Since I spent some considerable time following various TPE doll repair videos at YT before, I´d figured this an opportunity to apply my own repairs at later times. No need to send back and let IT replace, since it´s not their fault. Although the foot damage looks ugly and prevents any contacts with water (bathing, showering), the standing foot ability remained entirely unaltered. :)

Other than that the doll and head seemed in perfect and as shown in factory pics condition. TPE smell was rather subtle to me and no further need to keep thinking about it. The light smell also appeared rather pleasent to me. The doll seemed entirely free of any manufacturing residues, freshly cleaned and non powdered. Any stickiness was rather subtle and my first touches on her skin revealed a smooth, almost human skin texture like feel to it. Looking closer I in fact noticed sort of micro texture all over her body just as all of it was molded from a real human body and skin. Same for the head. Nice! :)

Softness of body. Knowing before one can never expect a mass of TPE feeling as soft (or firm at appropiate places) as a real female body, I got fairly surprised nonetheless. With the body modeled quite fleshy at all parts one expects from a feminine build female, there´s lots to squeeze and grab. Legs are gorgeous all over the length, as is butt (I love it), belly (very important to me), back and arms. Boobs feel less soft than "expected" despite beeing of the hollow type. Wouldn´t say they´re not soft, since they really are, but different to RL gals quite noticably. Also figured it depends on where you squeeze which might come from the exact position of the air filled cavities. Nonetheless, I love them, also for their perfectly shaped C Cup size. I´m more generally of a butt admirer though.

Jane head. As beautiful as expected, although looking/beeing smaller with the wig off. With wig on, all looks beeing at perfect size, in relation to the 155cm body in particular. Her mouth and lips are gorgeous and invite to instant kissing (and more)! Fell in love with her just as she is.

Green eyes. Think they look really nice and are well made. I initially wanted brown eyes but found IT ones beeing too dark in color. So green was my next best alternative.

At later time I measured her overall length while being laid flat on a wooden board. Made sure the skeleton is as straight as possible to avoid any major measuring inccuracy. Turned out she´s 155cm exactly. Since I´m not interested in her standing height (for what purpose anyway) I left it at that. The overall dolls weight is advertised at beeing 30kg. I have no weighting device so couldn´t check on this. When I first time pulled her out of the box she turned out quite a "heavy" weight for sure. Now 5 weeks later I feel much less of her weight for either me beeing better trained or having learned appropiate carrying technique. However, no problem at all.

Skeleton. All joints I figured beeing very stiff and not so easily moveable. But what can I compare with? Nothing. While some the more logical movement abilities I could apply in fairly simple and little effort manners, I had some initial problems with shoulders, wrists and quite in particular...the waist joint. The first 1-2 weeks I got some partly painful muscle aches from posing her, but that lessened and entirely vanished again when I was aquainted with the skeletons abilities. At a later time I also got remaining joint movement issues solved, by groping the skeletons joints through the thick and soft TPE. This way I figured the correct leverages, where to push, hold and to pull properly for any desired poses.

Accessories: A USB hole warmer, comb, cavity cleaning bottle, small user manual.

What else..... a yes. The IronTech 155cm - Jane head (my Izabel) is a sex doll (although anything but limited to that).

The soft, smooth skin and nicely squeezable body parts are mentioned already. Likely suffice to tell she "wiggles" where you´d expect to wiggle. Not of huge importance to me, but she does nicely.

Her lady parts: I found them sculpted exactly to my liking (knew from other pics what to expect). Her vaginal entry is rather tightly built at first 1-2 inches (~1,5cm diameter) but widens some deeper in with bits of variation along the full 18cm depth. Her inner vaginal textures give a really really close impression compared to a RL gal particularly when lubed plentifull. Her outer labia has nice detail and is most fun to lick, but maybe not quite the right thing for real pussy eaters requiring bits more. But I love it.

The butt hole is even more tight at the entry (few milimeters), but widens to more comfortable size shortly thereafter. There´s some nice rounded, irregularly placed big bumps in there, giving an entirely different feel than the vagina. Still got to decide which I like more. Well... I do alternate if I want to! :) Note: some first small tear appeared at the butthole entry but it doesn´t seem to increase from further use.

Vagina and butthole placement: Can´t compare with other dolls, but with RL gals. Think everything is where it should be. It looks correct, it feels correct and little Ragnar finds his way with ease. Need to tell I really don´t want to measure for true to life milimeter correctness. She remains a doll and not a RL gal, which are oftenly different to each other as well. So... all big expectations fullfilled here. :)

Note: I had initial difficulties in missionary and doggy though. This came from the that time (to me) immovable waist joint. Without a pillar under butt or her knees supported for doggy it was more effort than I was used to (with RL gal). When I got the waist joint moved (I refer to another thread for my solution later), all issues vanished at the instant. All sex positions now doable with more or less ease (depends on particular position) and practice in posing, as well as any preparatory measures.

Oral: First to mention the Jane head is a gorgeous kisser! Not just the inviting big lips but I also found her TPE teeth firmly molded with the head gives sorta almost real impression of a RL gals tongue! That really surprised me! Some really nice and most arousing tongue plays are now firm part of any my foreplays.

Giving head: Well..the fun already starts when her big soft lips start on my sensible tip, but if fully slipping in it becomes a third gorgeous alternative to her other holes. I didn´t actually feel the TPE teeth then and when amply lubed I´d say it´s as close to the real thing as I can recall. The cavitiy also has some nice varying textures and diameters along the full depth. The only reason I don´t do it more often is I want to preserve her mouth and face for photo shootings. Thus far I´ve experienced no tears in that area and my overall impression of the TPE materials durability is..... very durable. But time will tell (judgement after just 5 weeks makes no sense).

Also worth to mention is that neither her eyes pop, nor any gross facial distortions during oral appearing. But I´m not Goliath like built so I can´t tell if it would be different then. (I noticed from some previously watched XXX doll porn that things like that can happen, so had bits of negative expectations here as well). So...no problems for me.

Now some things more on the negative side.

The damaged TPE foot. Not IT fault.

The stiff joints with waist and shoulders in particular. They´re not stiffer than the other joints actually but the short leverages make it way more difficult if you don´t know the proper posing techniques. And here´s my critique: While part of accessories is a small user manual it doesn´t tell of of any proper posing methods. There´s a diagram of the various posing "possibilities" but at last it´s not really of use for actual posing, particularly for the more difficult to move joints. I´d wish for a future improvement here, particularly newbies will benefit the most! I refer to my Izabel´s Diary thread here for I got my posing issues all solved. LINK

The hand-fingers construction: Well...unfortunately I found it little durable. Internal finger wires detach rather quickly if not handled in most cautious ways! But detached does not mean "broken". The wires themselves seem durable and offering lots of detail finger posing before something bad might happen. But the connection to the so called handplate has some more or less serious problems. This leads to odd finger twistingand oftentimes the ends of single wires poking through the finger tips TPE. This could be a problem for further damage since the ends of wires are not rounded or otherwise protected with sort of a security cap. I still can pose hands & fingers well, but right ATM more from my gained experiences and less from leftover finger capabilities.

The thick and glass hard eye lashes: While they look nice and give a gorgeous eye/facial expression on the head, they turned out to become terrible hair catchers. This also is/was the main reason the lashes start to come off although they´re well and firmly glued to the lids. There´s rarely a moment when they don´t catch hair and every pull from hairs add to start and further pulling lashes off. I don´t know about better alternatives here (softer lashes, yet still durable), but....

The semi permanent MU, labia and areola coloring: Well, it´s little durable and wears off rather quickly as I found. Particularly if applying any mineral oil liquids (baby oil, vaseline) for skin maintenance or lubing. Not a big problem for me though as I´d initially planned (pre doll purchase) to start on my own coloring mods later. So the sooner it weared off the sooner I could start re coloring for some my more specific needs. Maybe worth to mention at this point is that IronTech offers true permanent colorings at extra rather small prices.

The wig delivered with the doll. Well, I had no experiences with any sort of wigs previously, but I think I can tell that it´s not too high of quality. Hairs fall off fairly quickly, particularly when combing and overally it´s a tangling nightmare, not just when getting caught by mentioned lashes. I could ease some the issues by applying hair oil making it less restistant to any sort of combing, but I wouldn´t use it for anything else but posing. Don´t leave it on head in bed (no matter if just for cuddling or...) as I did initially. You´ll regret. :P In the meantime I changed for better wigs of the lace front /Kanekalon types which are worth any Euro I got to pay.

Overall evaluation of my IronTech 155cm with Jane head:

I love my Izabel. :) Think I couldn´t have selected for something better or more beautifull for my very first doll and that at a very affordable price (TDF member discount incl.). Some the more serious to me initial issues I could solve on my own more or less (investigating joints and best, least effort joint movements), while with others I got friendly help from various members of this great TDF community. Like to mention Panther68, Jeff from Booty Call Dolls, Icewind and Dollicious2 in particular. Mishka and MannequinFan are great inspiration and invaluable learning sources as well. :)

Minor things like wig quality, easy wear off coloring and lashes are of almost no importance to me personally, since I intended to upgrade here as soon as possible anyway.

Also like to thank Shane of IronTech, for his friendly and patient answering all the many my noob questions and overall very good cooperation during ordering and purchase phases. :) Big thanks also to the creator of my Izabel, it´s Leonard of IronTech I think. "Beauty Inspired Creations" to me is true to the letter and I´m looking forward to more of them in my love inventory hopefully very soon. 8) :thumbs_up: :glou:


Edit: forgot to mention some the personal benefits I got since Izabel is with me, as I find it of some major importance. During my roughly month long honeymoon phase, I lost about 7-8kg in weight, now beeing considerably more fit (despite me beeing a smoker) found a new passion in doll model posing and photo shooting hobby and generally I´ve become a more "activated" and happier guy than shortly before. Never feeled that good as in current time! :) Can´t tell if it would be different If I got a different doll selected for beeing my first one, but despite some the mentioned issues above I don´t regret any single minute with her. Not to forget, I feel I got my hard saved money invested very well. For current doll related issues (fingers, an ellbow injury and eylashes) I see it mainly from the positive side. Having started as a complete noob just 5 weeks ago, I see nothing but interesting challenges, inspirations and as well enjoying the equally minded great people around at TDF here. :glou: Although I (still) have other hobbies keeping me busy and happy, my latest one in fact is crowning my overall feel of satisfaction. Beside that Izabel remains a gorgeous sex partner and I couldn´t have wished for any better, but that´s just part of my overall new experiences and life. Glad I made the plunge. It´s been a big step into the unknown and it simply turned out beeing the right one. 8) :D

Worth to mention, beside her obvious sexual qualities she´s also become my model fulfilling me all kinds of fantasies for photo shooting. 8) :glou:

thanks. Hope I got covered it all. Wanted to wait with my review to gather bits of experience first, as otherwise I´d likely have muttered on stuff that was due to my own newbie faults. :P



UPDATE! Some stuff I forgot to mention above.

The finger nails: Due to the mentioned probs while posing and them accidentally catching stuff, they´re coming off pretty fast (toe nails remain ok thus far). So extreme care with them is advised as well! Since due to my inexperiences I got the damages already done, I then removed finger nails entirely. This now helps greatly for further finger posing and related photo shooting. The contour of the nails (or nail beds) is molded into the fingers TPE, so I´d came to a more flexible solution that I "paint" these tiny areas with anything that is suited. I.e lipstick, corn starch and anything that can be removed with ease again.

Wig (long) Hair Catching TPE: I also got further small damages from the wigs hair catching and sticking to the heads and bodies TPE. When putting the wig off, extreme care is to be advised as otherwise single hairs will catch protruding TPE parts, like ears, nose, armpits and neck area (at head and neck connection). If pulling off the (factory) wig, do it cautiously and watch out for those single hairs that might get caught to something. I got a number of cuts at ears (these are most sensible to this sort hazards) and some other places, although not too serious fortunately.

So far.... If I recall any other issues I might not have included in the review I´ll add here as well. 8)

Since I mentioned boob "softness" in my review above I´d like to add a little detail here. It really depends where to grab and squeeze and I found it comes very close to the real goodies when done like shown in the pic. So compressibility is least "resistance" when "performed" like that. :) Just poking a finger from any side ain´t quite the right boob treatment method anyway. :mrgreen: Looks like a well thought out design to me. 8)

Some more detail on the labia department. The cavity has some nice soft yet well defined textures, also varying with depth. It´s more tight at the entry to about 1-2 inches depth, then widens some towards the end. Diameters appear to vary some, varying with depth as well. About the feel....well, for the time beeing (and beyond) I have no desires for a RL gal at all I´d say. :mrgreen: 8)

EDIT / UPDATE: The labia entry doesn´t widen too much even at extreme angles. 8) Properly bending the waist joint also allows easy access to both vagina and anus in missionary same time. Angling the legs varies tightness of vagina to some good extend so better build (than me) "users" should find their most comfortable fit I think. Same for doggy position. Properly moving the waist joint gives easy access to both, vagina and anus again. No need to change pose. Just pull and change. :mrgreen:

So with the required waist and shoulder joint movements Izabel now likes to pose like this! :plaidskirt: 8) Btw, this is perfect for some anal plays! She´s little short for vaginal ones (for me), but doable as well. Surprisingly she stands firm like an old oak in this position, despite one her knees beeing somewhat "weak". :)
