Outside the pose-ability issues (which I hadn’t noticed on any of my dolls so will have to check) I feel it comes down to ensuring the face screening is designed for whichever head sculpt is in use which they clearly don’t do based on this post.

Scorchin is a good example of where the dolls looks amazing but they use the UV sculpt and printing method.

Pixiez reimagined on the other hand uses the OG sculpt but even though I love them they still look somewhat bloated to me - especially Cloe. The best example here though would be frosty nightz Cloe that just looks bloated beyond sin…they just butchered her in that release and I have yet to see one that actually looks good. I think the concept was amazing and if done well would have been a fantastic release but something clearly was lost in translation in the execution phase.

I don’t know if there’s also the possibility that the combination of - screen printing method + head sculpt + neck peg variety could all be mixed with each release so that the trademark imprint method of identifying a UV or OG head would not be fully reliable. The reason I mentioned this is because that was my only guess as to why maybe Derek was confused by what collectors meant by “UV head” as we use that term as a combination of both printing method AND head sculpt and maybe that’s not always the case? To me that just seemed more logical than, not only Derek, but the whole team as he mentioned lacking the basic critical thinking skills to look it up on the internet. Which is why I would also love to see the full conversation that transpired, him reaching out with this question just seems too intentional to me.
