New to Forum and First Time TB Buyer

Post by MidwestBear »

Hello all, I thought I would just say a quick hello and also have a question in preparation of my first order of a Teddy Babe.

First about myself, though I am not sure that is important here. I am totally new to all things TB and plush affinity as that is something very recently discovered about myself. I am a 50+ yr old guy from the Midwest, US who has been working from home fulltime for the last 8 years. Started dealing pretty severe social anxiety and panic attacks in my mid 40s out of the blue so it is safe to say I am a pro hermit these days.
For whatever reason the idea of these Teddy Babe dolls really appeals to me as a companion. Not really questioning that any longer just going to roll with it.

I have also always been pretty heavy into photography, not as a professional just a serious hobby but have never been the type of person to approach someone to do people photography, especially like B&W erotic photography which is what I am very much interested in. So that is also very much part of my desire to get a couple Teddy Babes. Sorry if that is all more information that anyone needed or wanted to know about a new member :)

Now for my question, I have decided to get two TBs during the upcoming sale but there are a couple things I would like to change up on each one, like lips, nipples etc.
Is that done during the order process like on the order form or is that a conversation that needs to be had with the creator prior to ordering? I really know nothing of the process so I thought I would ask ahead of time.

Thank you for your help and taking the time to read my post.

Just send an email to 8th Wonder with your wishes and they will tell you whether it's possible or not. Teddy Babes are pre-fabricated blank dolls and all facial features and some other (fingernails, silicon nipples which I don't recommend) are added at 8th Wonder after the doll is ordered. Teddy Babes can't really pose or stand on their own. They have a simple wire-skeleton. Keep that in mind when thinking about photography.

I should've added that the owners are and have been for the past 14+ years:
Dave & Jenni
Eighth Wonder, LLC
www.teddy-babes.com
The admin email address will get Jenni's attention.

Thank you Missionary, I appreciate the info.

Update: Order placed! Very excited.
Decided to just order one this time and focus on just enjoying owning the one and making a connection with her.
I ordered Vicky, with just a couple changes. Bianca's darker nipples and Cindy's full blond pubic hair.
I think she is amazing looking and will be the perfect shieldmaiden :)
Her name will be Michaela.

I have four. Three TBU's and one TBD. I love them. They grow on you with their characters. Enjoy.
People ask me if I'm all right?
I plainly tell them, "I'm half left, actually."

Vicky was my very first Teddy Babe in early 1013. I love her full lips. She is still in charge of the harem.
Akiko and Carly came a few months later. Enjoy.
(None of my girls have pubic hair - Vicky came with it but had it removed with Acetone.)

In my previous post the date should have been 2013.
I'll grab this chance to post more picture for your enjoyment.
These Babes are the previous version of TBD's made between 2013 and 2018.

They also have great personalities. :)
No matter how pretty she is, there is a guy out there somewhere who is tired of her shit!

Girlfriends are for guys who haven't found the right doll yet.

I feel much better now that I've given up hope.
