Alright! Good news!
Mamamba arrived today!
My first "really" full size and heavy weight doll.
My first TPE one and my first black one.
No damages to the doll or even the packaging. Not even a flat bum.
Good job UPS and everybody involved! And I have to say she was even better "tugged in",
then
Nele my 2015 DS160, who was kinda free floating in her box.
Having a "really" full size curvy doll around for the first time is a different sensation.
However the TPE is way too soft for my taste. It's certainly great for breasts and butts,
but not the entire body. But I will not "use" her as a sex doll, so it doesn't really matter.
However should I ever buy a sex-doll again I'll probably go with silicone and gel implants.
The smell is noticeable, but not too bad, silicone smells nicer though IMHO.
All joints are tight but not too tight, except the back joint (her spine).
That one is so tight that I have to use both arms and my upper body to make the slightest adjustments.
Her wrists however are "looser" which is good so you don't damage the fragile hands.
In comparison to my DS160 again a huge plus, because the tightest joints in Nele's body
are her wrists, which already lead to damages to her palms unfortunately.
So in conclusion, this YL doll is actually better than expected and looks just like I hoped she would.
Right now she is laying on my bed, and I'm a little bit clueless how to proceed.
She needs be washed because she is covered with some sort of brown powder.
I'll probably have to reposition my stripper pole, lean her against it in the middle of the room
and give her a sponge bath with very little water. As soon as she is cleaned,
I can take final measurements and order her makeup and an outfit.
OK guys, lots of work and heavy lifting ahead, I'll better get to it.
