Here's a mini review:
I received her as promised and I was immediately struck by the hyper-realism. Having become used to the traditional monotone silicone and TPE flesh-tones I would almost say the realistic effect was eerie at first. But I quickly got used to it, and dare I say, spoiled by it. I think it will be difficult for me to pull the trigger on non hyper realistically painted dolls in the future. Over a year later the paint continues to seem durable except for the genital areas, but that hasn't hindered performance.
Communication was MUCH better after the original post above. ILdoll staying in regular communication with me about the production process as was very honest about what production delays and the like.
I go the IL 151 and I love the sculpt. I was in the market for a more realistically proportioned doll and this was exactly what I was looking for. (My tastes seem to oscillate between a realistically proportioned body or a very curvy almost anime/hentai body type) The silicone has begun to show signs of tearing under one of the armpits, which probably my fault for pushing some poses too far and too often. I've become very sensitive to that joint on her and only adjust when absolutely necessary.
The weight reduction came a cost to softness, which for me personally I feel was a fair trade. I don't remember the exact weight but I think she's around 65lbs. Other similar height and size dolls I've had are around 80-85.
The gel breasts are still perfectly jiggly, my only request might have been the buttocks which are fairly firm.
I ordered two heads, both of which are soft silicone oral capable. However, the hyperrealism effect is so good, I'm afraid I'll ruin it. I tried to use it once or twice during playtime, but couldn't relax around my fear of hurting her, so I stopped and haven't tried again since.
I only got into photography much later, so my early picture of her are not that good, but I'll attach the factory pics I got as well as once post receipt.
I've since moved on to another hard silicone head that I purchased from another manufacturer and I got lucky with the skin tone match. So that body / head combination have taken on a new identity and personality in my mind. I also love photographing her (I've gotten better since I got her) when I have the time and the energy, but many of those pics I don't feel comfortable sharing her.
In conclusion: I have half a dozen dolls of different heights and body types, but the IL151 is my usual go to for playtime and or photos. Would I buy from IL Doll again? Probably. Right now I haven't seen any other offerings of body/heads that I'm currently interested in, but as a company, they definitely left me as a happy customer.
