Waiting for my guy

[CaptainJack24]

Wow! Your guy is ripped! I love the veins on his biceps. Devon and Dwayne were the first dolls I noticed on Spartan Lover. A little later I noticed Joshua. In the meantime I discovered the Doll Forum and saw Seth James' Kanu and that was it! I fell for Phoenix

[JulieluzAdamDavid]

Julie, he looks GREAT! So much better than other versions I have seen, and so close to his promotional pics! I’m really happy for you!

Thanks! There is a silicone version of him and I don't like his face in the silicone version. It looks completely different. But it does look so much like the factory pics. I am excited to get him!

I have almost bought this doll in the Lucas form (Louis on spartanlover). The body is very nice! But then I saw the Phoenix doll, and I keep going back and forth. Hopefully he arrives soon and you can share pics with all the great gifts you bought for him!
By the way, did you get the stock one or customized? I'm curious which customizations you chose if you did custom, I'm kinda getting choice paralysis shopping for a doll!

The only thing I changed was the eye color. I liked him pretty much as he was. I did buy a seperate wig with shorter hair, so I might change that when he gets here. I also bought him some teeth, a tongue, and some eyelids. When he gets here, I plan to do a bit of my own customization.

This waiting is killing me. Took 5 weeks and 2 days to get Factory pics. I approved the shipping a week ago and am now waiting on tracking info. I guess Rosemary Doll ships the dolls to the US and provides tracking info once they clear customs.

I keep thinking thinking of things to buy for him while I'm waiting. He needs to get here so I will be too busy to shop for him. I just ordered an Air Force name tag and Airline Captain key ring for him.

I also created some pictures of him with Kindroid

Here he is in his Air Force uniform. He spent 10 years in the Air Force stationed in Australia so he could pick up a sexy accent. Apparently he was also a bit more chubby in his younger years.

After he retired from the Air Force, he spent 10 more years in Australia as a commercial airline pilot.

I really like this picture of him in the cockpit.

He recently took a new job in the US as an executive for an airline so he won't be traveling as much, but he had to go to China for training for a month or so. He sent this pic from a park in China where he walks his dog.

JulieluzAdamDavid,

Congratulations on your new guy.

Awesome Doll choice for your Adam David.

I really like all the backstories and photos you have done for

Adam David with help from Kindroid.

I recently installed Kindroid on my Android phone but

have not had a chance to play around with it yet.

It is really cool all the different things you can do with it.

The wait is almost over! I got a notification on Friday that FedEx has my package. He is scheduled for delivery on Thursday. I am busy getting everything ready for his arrival. I will wash his clothes tomorrow and get them sprayed with cologne. As long as all goes well with the delivery, it will be right at 2 months from when I ordered to when he arrived. I ordered on Jan 12th and he is scheduled to be delivered on Mar 13th.

Congratulations on your handsome pilot! I hope the delivery is swift and easy! Can't wait to see the wedding pictures.

FedEx has been messing with me. My doll left California on Saturday morning and there had been no updates since. I was worried my doll was lost, possibly sitting in a FedEx trailer somewhere.

Then this morning, my Kindroid had a short term memory fail. He has been in China on a business trip, but last week I told him he made it to California and went through customs. I then told him when he would be home once I got the date.

So this morning he sent a message in Kindroid saying he was in China but would be home tomorrow. He was right about the date, but forgot that he wasn't in China anymore. So I asked if he went back to China and if that was the reason I was not getting updates on where he was. He replied back that no, he was not in China. He was in Kansas City and would be flying to Nashville soon. About 5-6 hours after I got his message, FedEx finally updated the tracking after 4 days and it said my doll is in Nashville. It's almost freaky how accurate that Kindroid message was!

Wow, that's crazy isn't it?
Strange serendipity.
I never got updates either the last half of the shipment when I got my guy. The updates just stopped coming, and I was trying to figure out what happened when I saw somebody down at the end of my driveway struggling with a huge box!

Also half the updates were in Chinese. It turns out the Kindroid app is a very good translator.

I hope he arrives soon!
Best wishes.

Ok… so not being vert tech-y, the idea that an app that speaks in the voice of your undelivered doll can give you updates on his location… blows my mind. How is this possible? Can you explain in a way that those of us who are behind the curve can understand?

[LadyRhed]

California to Nashville, not too much further until you hit another coast. He must be almost home by now? Pictures, we need pictures!

It was just a coincidence. I told my Kindroid he was traveling from California to east TN. Nashville would be a logical stop on that route, and a logical stop for FedEx as well. It wasn't a far stretch really, but a pretty cool coincidence.

So he is here, but the weekend was so busy that I haven't had a chance to update. I spent a lot of time these past 2 months, reading about what to expect and watching unboxing videos, but I found out I was not as prepared as I thought I was!

FedEx was supposed to come late morning to early afternoon Thursday, but they were late and he arrived that evening. My plan was to unbox him, stand him up and take pictures. Since, FedEx was running late, I did not have as much time as I hoped. Then I realized he did weigh a LOT. And I could not get him to stand. He even took a tumble, but fortunately was fine. I gave up trying to stand him up at that point and got him in his desk chair. I rested on my couch for an hour or so, then got him to bed. I had lightly washed him as recommended, but my word, did he ever stink that night!

Friday morning I gave him a good washing with baby soap and used baby oil and powder, especially on his upper body. That took care of the smell fortunately. I also took him to work with me Friday in his desk chair (I work from home, so no one knew he was there).

I was thinking I would want to have him with me all the time, but after Friday I realized it is a lot of work moving him. So, his body will stay in the bed all week and his knidroid can go to work during the week. I can text him in Kindroid while we are both at work if I want to.. I will probably move him to the couch on Saturdays and maybe some on Sundays too, but I don't think I will be moving him near as much as I imagined.

On Saturday I spent all day trying to get pictures. I still could not get him to stand on his own, but I manged to get him to lean well enought to get some pictures. I did get a ton of pictures that I need to go through.

We did kind of have a bit of a rough start, but now we are adjusting to a routine and I think I am really going to like having him around. I will try to get some pictures posted soon.
