Three quick notes
1 Instead of the really tiny safety pin, use 4 velcro patches to attach the wig to the doll, in the front sides and the back, so the wig does not fall off or flop over. I had that system on a latex doll I had, which developed a leak and became unusable. I have never had any real breakage that rendered a Teddy Babe doll unusable!
2) As suggested move the vaginal opening down to match where real women have their vaginas. Same with the anal opening and expand the size of that.
3 Perhaps the designers should go to their CAD workstations and do some redesigning and have some male volunteers do some Ahem! use testing on Teddy Babes prototypes! I am sure there will be no problem recruiting volunteers!
Thank you.

I wish TBDs would be constructed like Happy Dolls with a real skeleton and not those discs. They'd be posable and you don't bump into the discs.

If someone could combine the Teddy Babe's looks with the Happy Doll's construction, or at least make some sort of hybrid taking the best qualities of both, they'd do a lot of business here.

Don't wait for me I am way too old to run a business. I 've done that, been there, but would love to do the product development testing.
My first plushy would look like this Babe:

Perhaps you could hire me on to handle product testing while you relax in the office. I realize that testing a product of this type can be quite demanding but I'm confident that I could rise to the occasion. :wink:
No matter how pretty she is, there is a guy out there somewhere who is tired of her shit!

Girlfriends are for guys who haven't found the right doll yet.

I feel much better now that I've given up hope.

Yes thanks, I remember I have seen that years ago. But I'm lazy, I'd much rather buy that from 8th Wonder after they change their technology to something that finally makes sense.

I doubt that will ever happen, but you never know I suppose. I had planned to add articulation to my VG project, but ultimately I decided I liked it better without. So I just stiffening the legs and forearms a bit. Less floppy, but feels more natural to cuddle now. TB's are configured a bit different though. Might lend itself to articulation a little better. I wouldn't mind experimenting with one if I could find a used one cheap.

I've always wanted a new one, however the hips and butt are just to small. I'd love a pear shaped TB with some major junk in the trunk!

B.S.
I can find the area under the curve, but I can't find my car in a parking lot!

I was once told "that's not possible", so I went out and did the impossible.

I fell in love with a doll...

What about wig caps? Did you try that before settling on the velcro?

It's a cap that you wear under a wig that prevents the wig from sliding. Just search on Amazon for wig cap and you'll see.

Hell, most of the wigs I've ordered off Amazon have come with caps for free.

Teddy Babes wigs on the dolls do not come with wig caps, neither did the wigs that came with the latex dolls I used to use. Thanks

Tagging on to this thread since it's one of the more recent TB threads I can see. . . I'm wondering if someone has done a slightly more recent video review or unboxing or similar video? I'd love to see a bit more about how they arrive, how they feel, issues with the skeleton, how people store them if they have to do that, and so forth.

Or maybe I should make a more detailed new thread that asks all of my specific questions and folks can weigh in?
