HOW WE GOT HERE
This thread will cover the purchase and my experiences and their latest iteration of 135cm “Spinner” that is originally designed and created by Patrick of Private Island Beauties.

Patrick started with making unique silicone pin-up style doll designs over 10 years ago. He handcrafted the dolls out of his home studio in Virginia. I understand he no longer takes an active role in building dolls but still involved with various aspects of art and design.

Before he left the PIB studios, he partnered with DollCabin to bring some of his models into modern production using TPE, Asian metal skeletons as well as offering a significant cost savings over his silicone beauties.

I bought one of his original 132cm silicone spinners back in 2017 and Tawney is still with me as a constant bed snuggle companion. Here is her original review thread:

viewtopic.php?t=89112&hilit=Tawney

I realized I never posted many pictures of her mostly because there is a high degree of concern and scrutiny about dolls of shorter stature at the time. It hasn’t gotten much better since but I will do my best to keep the scale vague as possible.

Currently she really can’t handle anything more than laying about with gentle cuddles and affectionate kiss good morning/night. So when it came to my attention that DollCabin started offering spinners in STPE, I knew I had to have one…. Just to have a backup and also to experience this latest advancement in TPE.

Finally had an evening to spend some quality time with Genna so I’ll give some updates and thoughts.

Got her fully out of her box and gave her a good look front and back… head to toe. I gave her a shower, washed up the head. Dried her up and tested her joints, powdered her up and took some photos and proceeded to some intimacy.

Overall she really didn’t disappoint and DollCabin has done some amazing work here…Patrick would be proud.

INSPECTION
She had no damage and she arrived just as I ordered. I will say that the body felt amazingly smooth from the factory and not tacky nor had any noticeable TPE smell.

Clean up was very easy as her weight is confirmed at a very manageable 46 lbs. No noticeable residue, grime or grit came off her as I wash and rinsed her.

The head had a little noticeable dust that was removed during washing, The STPE did give a slight TPE off-gas smell while in the shower under moderate hot water.

Nothing overwhelming but noticeable with the higher temperature. She is a joy to shower with all wet and soapy. TPE smell dissipated fairly quickly and she actually held onto her soapy conditioner scent during drying and powdering.

Drying her off she gets a little tacky in places. Stickiness was noticeable especially where STPE comes into self contact (like underarms and between fingers).

She takes powdering very well seems to retain it. I just use cornstarch powder with aloe and that takes care of the tackiness and back to silky smooth…so they must have powdered her initially from her factory.
POST DELIVERY QA: 5/5

HEAD
Her face is beautifully sculpted and nicely sized. It’s a bit smaller than the original silicone spinner.

She has the typical half-round eyes that I have already upgraded with mannequinfan’s high definition magnetic iris eyes. Its is very soft with oral sex capability (very deep canal and nicely textured, very tight great suction).

The resin core is fairly small so her eyes do bulge slightly when handling or with oral. Could use a ROS upgrade but in this size factor I realize that could be difficult.

Typical m16 screw to pivot drop quick disconnect head assembly. Combined with articulated neck gives great head movement and angles as well as posture support. A little “Easter egg” find is Patrick’s signature is molded on the back of the head as his design mark!
HEAD 4/5

BODY
Her body has really nice molded definition, sexy feminine lines, wrinkles and simulated musculature or bone structure.

Even some occasional quick touches of paint for detail enhancement. I didn’t get the high definition paint upgrade as it never lasts on these soft TPE dolls.

I will add my own details (veins, freckles), paint or makeup as needed overtime as things fade or needs refreshed. This STPE is firm enough to have her be placed on her knees (on a soft surface or pillow) without harming the knees skin. Same goes for kneeling on hands or elbows.

Will keep monitoring for longevity but would not recommend doggy position on hard surfaces. Feet and ankles have good range of movement, the toes are webbed and wiggley, but can be separated if wanted.

Webbing is hardly noticeable and keeps everything nicely together. Her feet are cute, small and do arch nicely!

Breasts are solid STPE and one of my favorite features. Wonderful jiggle, pertness, and very nice hand feel. Didn’t want to deal with gel failing, and I am not disappointed since the STPE is already plenty squeezable.

Overalll body and skin, I’ll deduct a point on this STPE. It is very flexible, seems resilient and relatively firm and substantially dense compared to traditional TPE.

However it is not the most firm TPE I’ve had. That honor still goes to SiliDolls NXT+ which is something special and IMHO the top-tier TPE.

Yes my Chloe (Sili) is a little larger and more substantial doll (@167cm vs 135cm it’s hard to be absolutely objective), but has an amazing feel. THIS STPE from DollCabin is a very close #2 and just slight less firm in terms of compression.

On a compression 00Shore hardness scale: this STPE measures an average 35-40 (soft) compared to a 45 (firmer) for Sili (ultra soft silicone I have comes in on average at 50 shore). Some people like them soft.

I prefer my dolls a bit firmer to better simulate reality, tissue, muscle before hitting skeleton.
BODY 4/5

SKELETON
Joints are very easy to move and will hold a pose. I will say they are a little on the loose side for a new doll, but in this case that’s ok. For this STPE and non-standing feet means she will mostly be sitting or laying (or hanging during storage).

Hands are fully articulated and feel stable with good wrist support. In bed or for photos, nothing is a struggle for movement. If ordering make sure you get the fully articulated neck (not gooseneck) and hands (not wired fingers).

I didn’t get standing bolt feet option. Not sure at current joint settings that she would be able to stand if she did, I much prefer unblemished foot. Articulation in toes would be nice but seldomly seen in TPE.

Overall joint range of motion is very good. Legs have some super yoga flexibility and she can sit on her heels or do so aggressive splits.
SKELETAL:5/5

INITIMCY
LHP is almost spot on …maybe a little south biased. However, with her size, flexibility and weight she easily negates LHP bias.

Mine has removable insert and built in anal. Nicely detailed even with the insert option. I chose inserts to customize the feel of my favorite onahole and for ease of cleaning.

I do prefer my own onaholes over the inserts provided, mine give better feel, fitment and texture. Stock inserts are a bit too long and narrow, I had a very difficult time getting them to properly align.

Anal is fixed (built-in) completely usable if not a little bland texture wise. As I said above she positions very well. Truly a spinner, with low weight, manageable height and lots of options for play.

However still need to be cautious with her delicate hands and not sure how resilient this STPE is to minor cuts or tears. I Don’t think you can go wrong with either built in or insert versions here.
SEXY AS HELL 5/5

OVERALL
Not much to complain about here and highly recommend. No typical TPE oiliness or bad smell! I have not even felt the need to give here an oil massage yet, but I’m sure that will be fun.

She photographs well and if done right you can’t tell she’s on the small side. I’ll add that the accessories were pretty typical. The wigs were slightly above average quality, but also a little bit too large for this head.

Wigs still work for now but can’t adjust them much smaller. Looking forward to some more exploration, costumes and cuddles with Genna. I’m not sure she can be resilient enough to replace my Tawney (my original silicone spinner) who is in bed with me every night, Tawney is a sleeping beauty.

Genna is a sex machine and should also be a good cuddle bug on the couch for movie night. Silicone has its benefits and STPE has its own benefits (and some limitations, but if you want TPE get STPE). I will post more of Genna and Tawney side by side later.
OVERALL 4/5 (My #2 top TPE doll)

Some side-by-side dress up of my new STPE Genna (pastel stripes) spending some quality cuddle time with her older sister Tawney (original PIB silicone spinner in hot pink).

Just some updates…it’s been nearly a couple of months already!

Genna is still holding up wonderfully.

STPE
I believe she has completely off-gassed the initial STPE smells and now can comfortably sleep with her all night without having any problems. No oil seeping or stains.

Her STPE skin is silky soft when powdered and with the right hosiery just becomes very realistic to gentle touches and strokes.

HANDS
The articulated skeleton here is nice, but have some observations. They need to add larger more rounded tip protection. The skeleton fingertips are currently very narrow.

While I haven’t had a full finger poke all the way thru…it’s been close. Finger articulation is very basic and limited to curling or open hand. There is no side motion available (to spread or collapse hand grip).

SKELETON
Everything here is still very solid and moves smoothly and hold positions. Great yoga position flexibility!

INTIMACY
Very much holding to the “Spinner” name. LHP is still holding to be accurate and VERY accessible.

😳 We have intimacy at least once a week and Not seeing any tears, material degradation or concerns aligned to my normal cleaning routine. Warms up relatively fast and holds body heat amazingly well.

Overall she’s becoming one of my favorites! (Don’t tell the others) :whistle: A good, solid no drama doll! Patrick would be proud.
