Frequently Asked Questions
What are the key differences between WM Doll body types?
WM Doll body types mainly differ in height, overall curves, and weight distribution, which affect how realistic they feel and how easy they are to move. Some bodies are sculpted to appear more athletic or slim, while others focus on fuller curves and more pronounced features. You can compare the specific body style, proportions, and customization options for each model in the details section of its product page.
How much does an average WM Doll weigh for handling?
WM Dolls are built with solid internal skeletons and dense TPE or silicone exteriors, so they are significantly heavier than inflatable or hollow toys. Lighter bodies are generally shorter and slimmer, while taller or curvier bodies will weigh more and require more effort to lift or reposition. For safe handling, review the listed weight on each product page and choose a body type that matches what you are comfortable moving and storing.
How difficult is assembly upon delivery?
Assembly is usually straightforward and focuses on attaching the head, positioning the wig, and adjusting basic accessories. The body arrives fully constructed with the internal skeleton already in place, so no tools or technical setup are typically required. Any model-specific steps or connection details are shown or described in the instructions and photos on the product page.
Are the skeleton joints tight enough to hold complex poses?
WM Dolls feature articulated metal skeletons designed to hold stable, natural poses for display and regular repositioning. New dolls often have firmer joints that can support seated, lying, and many standing or semi-standing positions within normal limits. The exact range of motion and joint tension can vary slightly by production run and body style, so product photos and descriptions are the best guide for what each model can comfortably do.
What is the expected lifespan with regular use and care?
WM Dolls are built for long term use, but their lifespan depends heavily on how gently they are handled, how often they are moved, and how carefully they are cleaned and stored. Using proper support when lifting, avoiding sharp pressure points, and following basic cleaning and storage guidelines will keep the TPE or silicone and joints in better condition. For general care expectations, you can refer to the cleaning and storage guidance on the Silicon Wives FAQ, then check each WM Doll page for material details.
Are replacement heads, wigs, and inserts compatible across WM models?
Most WM TPE and silicone bodies use a standard head connection system, so heads from the same brand are often interchangeable within similar series, although skin tone matching is important. Wigs are generally universal and can be swapped freely as long as the cap size fits the head, while inserts are usually compatible within the same material and design family. For best results, confirm connection type, material, and skin color on the WM Doll product page or in the customization options before mixing components.
Is standing foot capability available on all WM Dolls?
Standing foot capability is an optional feature on many WM bodies and involves internal reinforcement and visible or low profile support points in the feet. Some dolls are offered with a standing upgrade, while others are intended only for lying or seated positions to reduce stress on the material. The product page for each WM Doll will indicate whether standing feet are included, optional, or not available for that specific body.
What are the shipping, packaging, and discretion details for delivery?
All WM Dolls from Silicon Wives are shipped in plain, unmarked packaging with no external logos or product descriptions, so the contents remain private. Orders typically ship by major carriers such as FedEx or UPS, include tracking, and worldwide shipping costs are covered by Silicon Wives, with any local import duties handled by the customer when applicable. The WM Doll product pages follow the same discreet shipping and return policies described in the main Shipping & Returns section of the site.
