Re: Ianthe, a 170cm Z-Onedoll via vendor Dolls Castle
I've now had Ianthe (170cm doll from Z-Onedoll) for a few weeks and I've given some thought on this doll.
This is my 2nd doll. In my opinion this model might be tough to be someone's first. You should have a working knowledge of how a doll moves, so you can manage moving her around.
Because I'll repeat what everyone says about this doll: she is a big doll. Weight is about 90 lbs without the head, with the head it’s about 95 lbs. (My weight measurement was not too scientific, maybe -/+5 lbs, as I was measuring her while she was sitting on the scale.) Regardless that's almost 2/3rds of my weight. I don't lift weights either.
But you know what? It's manageable, sometimes it's a challenge, but it's always FUN, to move her around and pose. Maybe I just like a challenge.
This is the largest doll from Z-onedoll. I think Z-onedoll is an exciting manufacturer because they are pushing the industry forward with technology like heat and sound, skeleton improvements, beautiful faces, and they are committed to making improvements all the time. Their slogan is the "Finest Love Doll From China" and I can see why that is their tagline. I’m not being paid by them. Just my thought.
Here’s my advice on moving her around:
Get a small dolly. Low to the ground. Lift her using the legs so the butt is above the ground and her shoulders/upper back are the fulcrum. Slide the dolly (not the doll, the dolly) closer underneath with a foot (your foot not the doll’s foot), lower her onto the dolly and she’ll kinda float on her ass. Lower the legs and you'll then be able to roll - while she’s on the dolly - from point A to point B. I like to keep her head off until she is in or near the position she is intended to be in, to make the balance go a little easier while moving around.
Want to get her in a different position off the dolly? Use her ass as the fulcrum, or bend her legs into a sitting position and roll on one side, or swing her legs around, and work her from side to side to get her in position.
But there will be times when you need to lift her. Say, into an office chair.
Take it easy, take it slow, roll her onto one side and then back onto your thighs, lift up with one leg at a time, and move her to the next level... chair, bed, whatever.
Or disregard all that and use a block and tackle hoist like someone else mentioned on the forums.
I've been moving her a lot for all the photos you've seen in this thread. Very minor damage so far. A few fingernails have caught on fabric and come off. They are easily glued back on with Sil-Poxy.
As a model, joints are solid and smooth. I'm used to a 156cm TPE doll made in 2015 from another manufacturer, and the 170cm doll feels like it’s on an entirely different level. Obviously silicone is different than TPE. But i mean there’s NO creaking with this body. There are hinges on wrists and feet. Poseable fingers and poseable big toes. And the body, wow. Beautiful, more real, like a pinup model, really nice.
There are other manufacturers making life-size dolls but I don’t know of any making a doll with measurements like these. Here are a few real world women's measurements with similar dimensions to give you an idea of size. It's always tough to understand scale with dolls from just photos.
Ianthe’s measurements:
height (top of head to heel) - 5’ 6”
weight ~ 95 lbs
bust / waist / hips - 43-27-41
bra size - 34DDD (add a bra extender)
From bodymeasurements.org:
Kim Kardashian
5' 3"
135 lbs
37-26-40
32DD
Billie Faiers
5’ 4”
142 lbs
40-27-38
34F
Nigella Lawson
5' 5”
160 lbs
39-29-38
32G
(google image search or youtube the names if not familiar)
Not being able to wrap your hands completely around the waist is nice. These are serious hips and thighs. Thighs may just be my favorite part. Play is all you can imagine. Have only used the insert with vagina. With insert cleanup is easy. There is also anal/built in; and an oral opening with this head A24 (this head does not have heat and sound - with heat and sound there would not be an oral opening).
Skin is real smooth. Been powdering with corn starch, light hand application followed by brush. Have to powder about once every couple of days to get that great feeling. Silicone material is soft and firm at the same time.. .how to describe this.. Hmmm..Breasts have a nice heavy jiggle. Thighs are firmer. Ass is nice to smack but doesn’t jiggle much, more athletic. Feet are soft and hands are nice to hold. Tummy is sexy.
Some poses for photos are challenging. I haven't been able to cross her legs above the knee, too much leg and hip there to get in position. Not complaining - just stating facts as I've experienced. Arching the back a lot is tough, it may be I need more time for the back joint to loosen. Speaking of, everything moves very smoothly and joints stay in place, making this great for photography. Shoulders and elbows have very tight joints and I expect those to loosen over time. Right now it's tough to twist/rotate the upper torso while the hips and legs stay in position. Again, this may loosen with time.
Makeup is fantastic! Miracle at Dolls Castle did a great job, a custom job, from a photo of Scarlet Johanson I sent in.
Order process was smooth. Shipping was fast. She arrived in a cardboard box, after traveling around the world. No damage. Wrapped in a sleeping bag with extra foam padding. Came with 2 inserts and a variety of small accessories.
Miracle/Dolls Castle takes a variety of payment methods. Different payment methods have different fees applied - not fees from Dolls Castle but rather from Paypal or your bank or wire transfer vendor as an example - to handle the transaction, so factor that in. Reasonable for an international business deal in my opinion. Under $100 to a couple hundred US dollars, but it depends on the payment method and potentially the amount being transferred.
Later this month vote for Ianthe's ass! She's in the Category A Photo Challenge. Link to photo challenge: https://www.dollforum.com/forum/viewtop ... 0&start=60
