I received this model Xycolo 153cm Organic silicone, large breast on 25/02/2023.
Perfect packaging, no problem inside. Xycolo protects its dolls well. The protective fleece bag like a camping sleeping bag is a nice addition, both for shocks and for temperature variations. The box is reinforced with plywood plates. The labeling indicates the need for horizontal storage as well as the top and bottom.... This did not prevent the carrier (UPS) from depositing the package vertically and upside down...
The general condition of the doll is perfect, no major problem to report.
Two heads were provided: the Ying head and a second free Vala head.
As always at Xycolo, both heads are very beautiful and have a very high quality finish. Both have implanted lashes. I recommend this option which adds realism to these beautiful heads.
I noticed that the Vala head, as well as the Hadaly (Risa) and Yumi heads are matte, while the Ying head is shinier, and will pose a problem of reflections on the photos.
The 153cm OS body is a success. I found all the qualities of Yumi's: very nice proportions (with much bigger breasts, with the LB option), a very nice skin texture, very realistic and very fine finishes.
The silicone seemed to me much more flexible than Yumi's. Xycolo confirmed that there was no change in the composition of the silicone between 2021 and 2023, and that this difference is probably due to the mixing and the temperature and humidity conditions during the molding.
This makes this body more pleasant to the touch, and probably more suitable for close contact than Yumi's...
I had asked if the molding lines, very visible on Yumi and Hadaly, could be reduced. Despite Xycolo's efforts, I must say that these lines are still very visible on Ying's body. I hope that in the future the 153 and 163 bodies will benefit from the significant progress made on the new 157 body.
There are no flaws except the hollow at the front of the ankles, which seems to concern all Xycolo bodies, and a small depression above the navel (a bubble in the silicone?) not very annoying.
The threaded rod at the back hole is very deep. I had reported it to the manufacturer, but there is no change. The back hole cap is no longer plastic but silicone and tends to fall off. These are details, but I have to point them out.
One very important point, which I had to deal with, and still do, with Hadaly body 163: the joints was too tight. I asked that for this body 153, as for Yumi's, the tightening be less. I must say that it was a success. The Xycolo workshop found the right level of tightening, which allows the body to be both rigid when standing or sitting, and flexible enough to allow all the adjustments of joint amplitude. This is a good point, but you should remember to ask for it when ordering.
I don't have much to add, except that this doll is superb and will undoubtedly take a nice place among the Victor'sDolls!
Finally, Vala's head is beautiful. More mature and voluminous than those of Ying and Yumi, she will need, like Hadaly(Risa) a body of 163 or maybe 157 (I'm waiting for the pictures to see).
Thanks for your visit and your attention... And now a little video of presentation. The first pictures are those of unboxing of Ying doll, without any modification or post-processing. The last ones are those of birth of Cindy.
More pictures later...
Cindy needs some encouragement as she takes her first steps into the doll world
