If silicone continues to show cracking problems and paint is easily removed, I would choose TPE over silicone.
Guess they need to find a smarter way to make TPE dolls far more lightweight.

Congrats!! Looking forward to to more info once you've squared away things with vendor.Echo_Chamber wrote: ↑Tue Dec 12, 2023 3:03 pm I wanted a FW 158cm C cup in tan, Chyna, but saw that the LHP was off, so I searched for one with a proper placement and added head #021-2; -2 denoting style two as style one is different in make-up. A few users here vouchedsafe the LHP for the 159A, so I felt confident to make the purchase.
I initially wanted Jasmine, a very life-like adolescence, but upon seeing her in tan I opted for Sophiemina instead. Sophi has somewhat of a bratty demeanor, freckled-face, perhaps a bit unruly and argumentative; should make for some fun in getting her in bed. Nonetheless, she also carries that willingness to appease, and would enjoy getting you alone; should make it easy for her to steel your heart once she has given herself up.
Chyna, which name I am not particularly found of, is a looker, nay, a stunner! She has a radiant ora of attraction about her, a gentle and effortless gaze, her womanly features developing early on in her youth putting her far ahead of her classmates and making her the most popular throughout the entire school! She doesn't need to ask, only lock her eyes, perhaps even smirk a tad without any eye contact, and she gets what she wants effortlessly. Every. Time. Yet her beauty doesn't make her haughty, but rather reserves her character, her conscience getting the best of her (shes self aware of her popularity). She's quite intelligent, thinking a few steps further ahead than you'd expect, and often times out-smarts you, making your game inferior, keeping you on your toes and putting you at her immediate service--ahh!
Received some photos from the factory on my order through the vendor last night and I must say, the doll looks very well made. Chyna's head is larger than Sophiemina's. The body is tan with dark pink. Not sure if its the lighting but looks rather neon fluorescent than dark pink. Will have to see it in person I suppose. Also, the tan appears rather light, but again likely the lighting in the warehouse is adding to the effect.
Should be enroute now.
Yeah, those are pretty general statements. Don't want to hijack the thread but simply- these are not issues that all silicone dolls face. Seems more of brand/model issue rather than material that you've read. In fact, Silicone is the only material where you can get damn near permanent painting if done correctly.
Here are a few random pickings for your perusal. I have quite a few more...just a guy wrote: ↑Thu Feb 15, 2024 4:10 pm Can you show photos of the "clawing" it owuld be interesting to see this.
What comes to the "hemihypertrophy" you can try to adjust the foot bolts by heighten other side and lower other side at least few millimeters can be adjusted so that could help to improve the standing if it's not many centimeters which then is to me indicate the doll is defected.
Which vendor you bought this doll from ?
If you received your doll from European stock, then it is at least a few months old and was manufactured at an earlier time than mine. Mine was made in December of last year. It sounds like your metal frame might be different from the metal frame in mine, especially if you're having success with posing? It is possible that they offloaded a junker of a frame on mine. The shoulders have a terrible range on them. When rotating the arms upward the joints bend halfway between the shoulder corner and neck! And the neck was welded/bolted on crocked, and flexes like a microphone boom. So bringing the head back forms a pronounced U. Its very dollilike, or alien-like, in my estimation. Makes for some very odd positioning and is quite the turn off to look at, tbo. The joints, however, are quiet and easy to move, and the hands are really nice, otherwise.Boulderjase wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2024 4:52 am I had a very different experience with Funwest. I received my 159A Sophiemina a few days ago. I bought her from Rosemarydoll in stock. She only took like 8 days to arrive. She came in excellent condition.
I actually feel like her photos are an accurate description of what i received. Especially the first two photos of her on the rosemary site that show what i feel are untouched up full front and back shots. I really like that the shoulder joints in the skeleton allow her shoulders to move forward and backward as well as up and down it makes for a vastly increased range of pose ability. Her arms definitely have some shape to them they are not just thin tubes of TPE, and im into it. Nice to have a little arm shape. Also the double jointed skeleton is really cool it allows her to basically sit on her feet if i want to pose her that way! The only thing i dont really like about her is that the foot skeleton can only go up and down not left or right.
I have owned about 5 dolls over the years and her LHP is hands down the best out of all of them. it allows for easy doggy access and i can easily access the vagina in lazy doggy as well which most dolls cant do without extreme back bending. She works in any position i have put her in so far. I think shes gorgeous and I love her so far.
I'm sorry to hear that yours was damaged, that is very frustrating to have to deal with. I hope your vendor works to make it right with you.

Its possible you have a different skeleton, on the custom order page there is an option for normal skeleton and then there is a double jointed skeleton which is what mine came with. The 164j sounds nice, maybe I should consider her for another member of my "team" haha! Im sorry but I dont know what you mean about her vagina being difficult. My apologies for sounding crude but with this doll when im going rough on her if i fall out i can just put it right back in without having to guide it with my hand....something ive never been able to do with a doll before. It's funny, im normally into girls with large chests but I bought this doll to try something different and she is now by far my favorite.
A lot of stretch is exerted on the material when opening the legs.Echo_Chamber wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2024 2:06 pmOk.Boulderjase wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2024 11:08 am I got mine from the US in stock in California.

I don't see how you would be able to do that unless you cut the opening and made it bigger and removed some material? At any rate, the orafice is not flush with the gooch and the pussy protrudes out from it, plus the dangling labia minora make for much frustration, even when well lubed. For outside of spread eagle and looking at where youre going, you cannot tell that you don't have any difficulty getting in unless you have modified the orafice somehow.
Feel free to upload a photo of what yours looks like.

This is interesting to me as I have been looking at the 159A as well! No offense, but since you bought your doll from a none TDF vendor, are you sure, that you actually got a genuine Funwest 159A?Echo_Chamber wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2024 2:06 pmOk.Boulderjase wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2024 11:08 am I got mine from the US in stock in California.
