Maybe, that's a good thing. She's for fun

This characteristic patterns -: Material - Silicone

In general, do not buy a doll that that the seller lists as silicone if you know the doll in the seller's photo is not a silicone doll.

Bad inexperienced sellers often confuse materials. It is sad, but they don't understand difference between latex, rubber, vinyl, silicone or TPE, etc. If the person is not only dealer, but creator and author of the doll, it is not possible that he don't know the right material.

Don't forget that there are language issues involved. Not everyone knows English well.

I'm there with you otto ... I placed an order too! Could not let this inflatable wonder babe get away ... she may be a limited time/production item, never to be seen again! I am very interested in knowing how she is constructed and I think the risk will be worth it!

I wish I had the resources to join in. Another takes one for the gang.

Whatever material he uses appears to work very well. That, he demonstrates in the stomp test videos.

Obin, depending on what our brave forum compatriots have to say, if their dolls arrive safely and turn out to be worth the money, you might want to start saving up for one!

In fact, I might do the same thing!

I've just ordered one too. I don't post photos but I'll let you all know if she turns up alright!

Howdy

Excellent newz fer sure - on a Late summers night - best of luck on this wonderful Russian Inflata-babe

Happy Trails -

Has anyone received their dolls yet? If so, what are your thoughts of the quality?

Here is my doll's projected timeline ...

7-10 days after gathering orders, transmit orders to to manufacturer. ( I think he means gather orders for a week or so and then send as bulk order)
4-5 weeks for production. Shipped to Russia. Checked for damage before shipping out to final destination via EMS.
1 week for delivery. Tracking number supplied when shipped from Russia.

So it's gonna be a while ... 6 5 weeks minimum for mine.
EDIT : Checked when I placed order ... it's been 10 days now

Thanks for the timeline. That actually makes sense. I paid six weeks ago. No doll yet.

Yes, thank you von_Shredhead. This helps us!

I should add, if he does stick to this timeline, not only does it establish his credibility, but it also helps confirm that he is, in fact offering specially-made dolls and not just heat-stretching other ones.

Y'all are quite welcome! I'm with ya on this CF ... I hope this guys credibility is good! I personally do not think these will be heat stretched dolls, but I still don't have a solid idea on how these inflatable silicone could possibly be constructed. I am leaning towards some sort of fabric/mesh coated/impregnated with silicone ... kinda like taking one of those fan blown nylon yard inflatables and coating with a couple layers of silicone to make it airtight ... but this is only a guess. Regardless ... IF these doll are anything like the ones shown in the videos ... I will be totally impressed!

Cheers!
