Does anyone know what this is???

Looks like some kind of shredded rubber that has reacted to the vinyl - at least that's my guess.

[Susan Cornelius]

Oh wow.. no clue. I'd try to find out who made the doll and ask them.

Contact the seller.

Looks like shredded rubber. Many, many years ago they put that in pillows. I haven't seen it since I was young.

This is why we need one group of judges to accept our doll making or not. One set of rules to follow and a certification for doll makers.

If the doll is from Poland, they do weight them light and with whatever they can especially if they are shipping overseas. I agree that it's possibly rubber, I wonder if they placed it in the body during the summer??
I am sorry you've run into this, I hope you are able to remove it from the limbs.

If it's melted in the limbs, I don't think you want to leave it in there. I would get some hemostats and pull it out.

[HushabyeMargie]

Back in the day when we had that fiasco with the “silicone” pellets, I used curved hemostats. 8 or 10”. I think bountiful baby still carries them.

[HushabyeMargie]

So does Amazon.

Very weird looking stuff......looks like mushy quinoa to me.
Hope you can get it out. The hemostat suggestion might work.

That was what I thought too!

I'd guess the "baby fat pellets" that were used for awhile. I always thought they could react with the vinyl and degrade, so I stayed with glass bead. Just a thought.
