Hello, I have an update on Korra and the case of her oddly bent feet. There
was something very wrong with them. If you have the same problem I would contact DS.
All the beautiful doll pictures I've seen lately prove that it should not look like this.
I asked DS about them and they said it was clear that the box was kept in the wrong position for too long by the shipping company. The metal foot bone got bent. After seeing a picture of what the skeleton is supposed to look like you can absolutely see there is a problem.
I didn't want her to look weird any longer so I decided to fix them.
I am pleased to report that
DS agreed to ship me the replacement parts for free! And this is a full year after I got my doll. Very good customer service.
Here is the repair thread:
Thanks again to all those who have helped with PM's and suggestions to fix her!
I am a totally new at this so any info helps me greatly.
It already looks
so much better with a new foot bone so I can live with some rough seams.
Before................................ and after replacing the foot bone:
The new parts look nothing like what was in there. I have no idea how they got so mangled. ???
??? The silicone did not get damaged. ???

I'm still working on it but if all goes well she should look way better.
