My request regarding the making of kits

@bbsupport, @EmilyBB
I would like to put out a request to all you fine sculptors and companies that are making these wonderful baby kits we are all buying. As a consumer, I have a request that I would like you all to consider on your future kits for us. There seems to be a drastic shift towards buyers wanting the full arms and full legs on their babies. We are now starting to see a few more kits being made with full arms. This is good if the arms are sculpted in such a way that they have nice curvature that promotes natural movement on the body and do not stick out at stiff angles. Please keep that in mind. However, another big issue I am having is what is called full legs. I am finding that some of these legs that are called full legs but are still a straight cut off at the flange do not move well no matter what kind of body is made for them. Usually I opt to use a 3/4 leg body on these type kits unless the thigh of the leg is just too long to look proportioned on a 3/4 leg cap. If the thigh is longer, but the flange has no hip/thigh curvature to it then one HAS to use a front loading leg body to make these babies look right. IMO these bodies limit movement and I just do not like them. I MUCH prefer my kit to have some thigh curvature to the legs if we are going for a full leg baby. There are a few kits out now that have these nice legs and the babies move SO much better and look adorable in onesies and such. If a kit were to have the combo of this type leg with nice full arms that are not stiff looking then this kit is the kit I would most want to buy.

Just an example of a kit that has these type limbs I like but of course all proportions, fat or skinny, newborn, preemie, etc. are great. This kit just has the limbs made like I would prefer to see.

I agree, as well. I wonder if the new technology of the Realborns would allow them to take existing arms and legs and just tweak the thighs and shoulders to achieve this, even on older sculpts.

Seems like since they are already adding wrinkles and other details to them they could.

I agree. 100%

Really love looking at this “nude” baby without feel strange about the fabric body.

This is Sawyer by Emily Jamison. He is sold out now but I have 2 in my stash. I love him! Emily sells these bodies he has on too.

I would love to have kits with full arms and legs, makes them able to wear a nicer range of clothing.
