Interesting comparison shots. Thanks for sharing those. I guess I had no idea the standard sized bodies had different sized feet either.

I don't think clothing her will be too much of a problem, once I decide on something (although I might have to swap out those feet to get anything but boots to fit). I really like this head sculpt on it - considering I just plonked it on there as it was the nearest one to hand it's actually a really good match. It's the first time I haven't had to spend weeks (or months, or years) trying to find one!
EDIT: More good news is that there's no problem swapping these feet out for other smaller, but more tonally-compatible TBL feet - no stupidly-different peg-sizing like with the smaller S24/5 and S26/7 bodies.

Beautiful head sculpt. Can you tell the head sculpt's name?

It's a DamToys 'Combat Girls Gemini Squad' head sculpt called 'Vicky' (the other Gemini model 'Zona' is an identical sculpt but with longer hair). It seems quite hard to get hold of loose now though and there's been a pair of less pretty 'Pisces Squad' models since.

Anyone knows how one can find out when the product was made or how to buy the newer products? Or if they are any better, if they exist?
skywalkersaga wrote:I think you are right and there's been some machine/assembly errors at tbleague in recent times. I say this because I have recently had some trouble with malfunctioning elbows on certain bodies and they are all of the more 'recent' reddish suntan skintone [which I believe began with this s29 model], and thus more recently produced bodies.
Hopefully this will eventually be fixed, but I am planning to actually send a complaint to tbleague about it -- and I suggest others do as well, just so they know that it has been noticed by customers, and they can't expect to continue selling bodies with defective elbows or any other joints. Complaining here on a forum is not necessarily enough, imo...
