Spinners for vets or disabled

Post by **toonist** » Thu Feb 14, 2019 10:53 am

Hey!
We have been working with some folks who are wheelchair bound or otherwise disabled. Also, we’ve managed to get some dolls to a couple of our Veterans at a discount.
It felt good and we’d very much like to make it a regular thing.
Unfortunately I believe we were “ scammed” by someone who said he was a vet, but I think he just wanted a good deal. Ooops...
So, we would simply ask you to show us a pic of yourself in uniform or in some fashion show us that you are disabled... I hope i’m Not being crass... but we’d like to offer our Spinner 1.0 , which weighs 42 lbs at a discount to you.
$2995.
Contact me for shipping cost to you . If you’d like upgrades we can talk about that as well.
This is the doll I am referring to. ( see pics)
She is super easy to handle and as lightweight as a lifelike doll can be in silicone.

I also want to share with you a few messages we’ve received in the last day or so.
I grabbed photo images of the actual messages and took out the customers name.

Dolls have many uses and places in our lives.
We are acknowledging the fact that a doll can brighten ones existence and add to your everyday well being.
We also have an even lower priced TPE doll but her weight is more. She’s 50 lbs.
So, if this is your situation just let us know.
We’ll make it happen. And, many thanks for your great comments.
Patrick and Sara

This is a nice gesture, and she sure is a hottie!

A photo in uniform could be faked. What about asking for a copy of their DD214, with the Social Security number blocked out?

Thanks for honoring the military. We don't get that all the time, but it's always appreciated!

Ask for dd214. Every vet keeps walking papers. Especially disabled vets. You are awesome Pat and do GREAT work. The girls say Hi btw and I have to go to nights to support a project for a few weeks......so I should have a little solitute to work on a few things;)

That is an awesome offer Patrick and Sara

Such a great thing to do!
PIB Spinners are definitely the Perfect Doll for anyone who wants the feel of a full sized doll in a more manageable size and weight.

Fun and beautiful... and Yes are very nice to brighten one's home and bring smiles and happy feelings

Wonderful works of art to be admired and appreciated.

Hi,
It was mentioned here yesterday that a 100 or so cm doll could get the weight down to around 24 lbs.
I have started and stopped a small doll project a few times.
This should be enough to light a fire under me to finally get it done.
There is a very real necessity for it.
Thanks for the reminder.

Oh man, this is great news, Patrick!

For some, especially elderly, disabled or frail, even 40lbs. can be too much.

Getting these little cuties under 30lbs. could be just the ticket for those needing lighter weight, but also those just wanting an entry-level doll that's easier to handle and store, but still big enough to have physical presence.

Please keep us posted!

I Just noticed this post after pming toonist oops... someday. One can hope, 3k is awesome just out of my range currently... to bad I cant get the VA to um invest in some unconventional therapy. And yes I would ask for a DD-214 and maybe a drivers licence that matches the name. Or I wonder if you could get on a site that they would have to already have those things like....Rally point or something...
