Hello,

My name is Mario, I'm from Italy. I surfed this forum for a while, now I want to present myself.

I'm in the REALLY HARD process of deciding what doll to buy. This question rises a lot of other questions, some of them related to sexual features and activity, some of them related to the mental aspect of having a doll at home.

I need help in deciding the brand and model, because a doll is a really expensive gift, and I want to decide very carefully. In my future posts, I will ask you some suggestion based on my personal tastes. Hope to receive some help from you, great doll community!

Keep on reading.

Thanks in advance!

Mario

Hi Mario, and welcome. Yes, the only thing worse than trying to figure out which one you want is waiting for her to arrive.

The key piece of advice here is patience. Take your time to look around at all the options available. You need to decide a few things up front like budget, her height, can you handle the weight of a TPE/Sil girl (30-40Kg). After that its down to your own desires. Remember all dolls can come in several skin tones, eyes can usually be changed to several colour options and wigs are easy to swap around and get from places like Ebay, so you are really looking at the body style and facial features when looking at the pics.

Best of luck in your search and ask as many questions as you want/need to. You'll always get an answer.

Ciao Mario,

as Karrot already mentioned, - really take your time. You have still over a month left until all the Christmas promotions start - and don't make any rash decisions.

One of the most important decisions is wherever to get a TPE doll or a Silicone doll. It's a question often debated here on the forum. Have a look at this video comparison we did, it might be very helpful for you: https://www.dollforum.com/forum/viewtop ... 57&t=69993

Any questions, just ask - we treat each other like family here

Cheers,
George

Welcome to TDF sorona!
As said above, take your time and have a look around. Of course we're here to help but the choice will be yours and you may be surprised at what you decide on - I certainly was and went with George to get her!
Keep posting until you get to five posts and you can then post pics or PM (private message) anyone or vendors/manufacturers! Think about what your tastes are first and we'll try to help.
Cheers, Hollows.

I'm thinking about sharing with the community my process of DOLL-HUNTING (nice term!

Welcome aboard. Maybe even start with a less expensive doll or mannequin.
Consider how heavy some dolls can be. How much weight you can safely lift.

Hi Mario, you're on the right track. The first doll you choose is the hardest, so bravo for writing down and charting it out. Whichever doll you choose be prepared for more maintenance than you imagined, more intimacy than you ever dreamed, and to fall deeply in love with an inanimate object. Sounds crazy? Welcome to the family!
