I placed the order December 30 and it was delivered January 14 after barely two weeks. Jeff at Booty Call Dolls is the man. He was incredible to work with, friendly, patient, and always quick to reply to PM's or emails. I would definitely purchase from him again.
Now here is my one day of doll ownership review: unboxing went well, everything was in order. I took my sweet time unwrapping all the tape and packaging, which I must say they did a phenomenal job of. Akina was very secure and well protected. Her factory scent was a non-issue, it's there but as many have said it's kind of pleasant. Getting her out of the box was a chore, and wowee nothing prepares you for the weight of a doll! I'm guessing she's somewhere in the 65-75 lb range, I'll be sure to confirm this later. Overall she's in very good shape. The TPE feels and looks amazing. And I can lose myself just looking into her eyes. Not to mention kissing her cute little mouth. But she had a few minor issues coming out of the box: bent eyelashes, crease on one of her elbows, and one foot seems loose. Other than that, Akina is in great shape. Her skin is free of blemishes, her joints all work very well, and she is a joy just to be around. I can't comment on the standing feet yet as I only attempted using them briefly before laying her back down. Her wig on the other hand, not my favorite. Talk about a tangled mess of something. But clearly there is a learning curve and this was my first day ever dealing with a wig.
Cleanup went smoothly. I wrapped up her metal pieces and moved her to the bathtub. She received two successive sponge baths with soft soap, warm water, and white microfiber towels. Soap, rinse, pat dry, repeat. Then the really fun part, oil bath.
