I pick all the above. I really do love the full limbs babies.

I like full limbs for clothing options. Cuddle babies are my favorite for snuggling, though, especially if they have 1/4 limbs. Details are important as they add to the realism.

I love the full limb clothing options too. I get all mine from Carter’s. They usually have a lot of good deals.

Happy Babies seem very popular like Maddie’s, Avas and Kodi Bears.
Cuddle babies seem popular as well, usually ones under $400 seem to sell quite quickly.
Delilah is super popular atm. Like everyone seems to really love her.
Silicones are always popular, in a way, especially if they are under $1,000.

I can’t wait either.
I totally agree with all this. Esp after 2020, we need more happy faces and cuddle bodies.
Cuddle bodies seem to have a legitimate place in a collection now as a source of comfort rather than just as a way to cut costs on a reborn.
Adding to this, AA, biracial, and other non caucasian reborns seem to sell quickly. I know because I’m always on the lookout for them. Even the poorly painted ones get snapped up.
Personally I can’t bring myself to live with a face that looks inconsolable or even mildly uncomfortable.

How do folks get silicone under $1,000? Do you mean like cuddle ones or smaller ones? I’m curious because there is zero chance I’m going to be able to list any of mine under a thousand. They were $800 for a partial kit with cloth body and nearly $1,000 for each full body. I’m not counting Teenie Tom (the 6 inch one).

I’ve seen regular sized silicones for sale under $1,000. They are boo-boos usually or have various flaws.
Normally they come from those who make the mold/sculpt themselves.
I think there were a few I saw that were FBS and partial as well. But like I said, they usually have big, big boo-boos or a lot of flaws.
There might have been some cuddles too but I’ve seen others under $1,000 as well.
There’s a full body silicone baby on Reborns listed for $679, pre-loved. I can happen 🤷

I see. I wasn’t even considering anything less than desirable or cuddle ones. Thank you! I feel better knowing that what I’m painting doesn’t go under $1,000 unless it becomes a booboo.
