Love the detailing on Presley
Love the detailing on Presley
LOL when that HUGE box arrived here this morning I went what the heck did I order that big....... LOL in it was my Bountiful Baby Presley order. The boxes for the finished baby are wonderful and wow do I love the detailing in the parts! The head surprised me how big it is! LOL I have to keep in mind I have been hollering all along for a true newborn size baby to do and now my wish has come true!!!! ! I don't want to step on anyone's toes here but I wish many of the sculpting artists would look at the ears on Presley. I have so many kits where the ears are so thick and way to big for the doll's head. The lobes especially are thick and huge. Presley has such adorable ears!
I know I will not ever give up buying uniquely sculpted kits but am so glad there is also this type of kit offered as well.

Re: Love the detailing on Presley
How big is his head? Most newborns heads aren't but 13 maybe 14 in. cir. at most at birth. So how big is it?
In Silvia's auction with her hubby holding him his head didn't look all that little. KWIM!

Re: Love the detailing on Presley
No the head is actual human sized head @14 inches. It is a very nicely shaped head in back instead of the "shelf" many heads are made with. Those are so hard to root and not have the hair stick out in back. It just takes me forever to root even a 12 inch head...

Yes rooting a preemie head takes me 4-ever. And this head was going to be rooted and not painted. I may have to rethink that.Ginny W wrote:No the head is actual human sized head @14 inches.

I work in a hospital and although 15 inch heads are big it is definitely not unheard of.

My niece was born with over a 16" head but doctors get very concerned. Head seemed so large for her tiny body for the longest time. They made her go in every 3 months and they kept measuring her head.

I'm talking on average you can tell that the real Presley is a new baby by his little belly button.TinyTimms_Doris wrote:I work in a hospital and although 15 inch heads are big it is definitely not unheard of.

have the right amount of newborn fat on them. But his head size I don't think I'll root it like I had planned on his ears are great
I also love the long slender newborn fingers. They are sweet.

As someone that works with neonates and newborns daily, this kit is cream of the crop!!! Best I've seen. I think this new technology will change the reborn world. I can see, in the future, where you can send a picture of your real newborn baby and order a kit to match. Wouldn't that be something?? Wow, the ideas are endless. Though, I'll always be amazed how an artist can take a ball of clay and sculpt it into a person, baby, etc. Technology always changes the world but, an artist touch is always special.
You are right about the ears, just perfect. I too love the color and the feel of the vinyl. So, nice to have a beautiful, realistic kit that is affordable too.

Re: Love the detailing on Presley
With computer capabilities, BB is able to make this kit as large or as small as they choose to. If they wanted to make it 22" they could and if they wanted it to be 10", they could. Since kits shrink by approximately 10% from the original, they likely made the mold slightly larger than the actual real baby.
