Yeah, totally hot! Reminds me of a playmate named Angel Boris.

Thanks for the warning!

The best approach for skin tone matching on TPE dolls is to either use (semi-permanent) makeup powder (makeup foundation), or (permanent) pigments, like they are developed over here: http://missatleur.com/dollcare.htm

OK, I wasn't optimistic. The color situation is ridiculous. I will check out those posts. Thanks for the frank information, and the quick reply.

I'll also check out the makeup, but it's one of the things I'm most dreading - second only to making physical repairs!

Doll Forever is very interesting. A few questions:

1. Can you tell which model the following photo is of? I looked at your website, and didn't see it on a page for a specific model. It's not the most important question, I'm just curious.

2. What is up with the nipples in the following photo? Is that a specific design choice for a particular model, or is it an option for any model? If so, what do they call the option? "150% nipples"? "Set nipples on Stun"?

3. Color compatibility with other heads. The current D4E head selection looks limited, and there are heads from other manufacturers out there which are much more appealing to me. Have you noticed whether, say, certain Jinsan colors match D4E colors?
