Issues with silicone near feet bolts
I have been reasonably careful and gentle with my doll, yet the feet have gotten significant tears around the bolt heads, particularly around one heel. The silicone has detached from all six bolts, leaving ragged edges around the bolts. I will post some photos shortly.
This isn't a functional issue, per se, but really has ruined the look and feel of the feet.

Re: Issues with silicone near feet bolts
Yes there is, another member on here found some bolts that I think had a smoother head, I would think you will find the thread if you search for standing foot mod', there are a few threads that cover this topic. I started one last year and it may even be that one that has these other bolts in it.FloatingInSpace wrote:Nice suggestion. I'm also wondering if there's a flat / soft solution that would post less risk to hardwood floors than the standard hex bolts.

The idea here, undo the bolts, remove, run a bead of sealant around the circumference of the hole rim, reinsert and tighten the foot bolts, and then apply the caps.
