I will recover and digital remaking Old 18M Berman and Saint

[I will recover and digital remaking Old 18M Berman and Saint]

Thank you for a lot of your opinions about digital remaking Old 18M Berman and Saint. I decide to do digital remaking and re-release them.

[About concern and opposition opinions]

The point is that I wonโ€™t use previous prototype and the Original Bermann and New Bermann wouldnโ€™t be compatible with each other. I will keep the original image of Bermann as much as I can but the structure of inside or body will be totally different. So the value of the Original Bermann will be kept.

[Remaking Head]

We will do 3D scanning before digital remaking for this project. After we print out 3D modeling file we will edit something not enough part manually. So there woulnโ€™t be big difference in outline image with the original prototype.

Range of Upgrade

– Making heads more beautiful.
– Giving more detail in visage.
– It will be produced the structure of detaching-attaching head will be produced and have occipital detaching-attaching head like recent dolls have.
– It will have OE and SA head

Bermann and Saint would have soft silhouette and will have a perfect beauty without harming their neutral beautiful manly image.

[New Body]

I wonโ€™t recreate the same body like the Original one. His body was made 15 years ago and itโ€™s not enough to use it again. We will make a new one.

Range of Upgrade

– producing a new body silhouette
– no masculine body. They would have slim body that goes well with Bermann and Saint.
– Providing Pose body or pose+ body
– We will take ideas of the structure of joint and inside or the way of attaching tension from new 18M body Khan has.

[New hands]

Its hands would be produced with a neutral feel (between a woman and man). We will make them totally new like its body.

Range of Upgrade

– Describing nails, wrinkles, blood vessel.
– The blood vessel wouldn’t be too strong.
– Concerning degree of folding fingers and palm to make them natural.
– Comfy hands, on the waist hans, I want you hand, I will make these three kind of gesture hand parts.

[New feet]

It will be producedwith a neutral feel (between a woman and man). We will make them totally new like its hands and body.

Range of Upgrade

– Describing tow toenails, wrinkles, blood vessel.
– The blood vessel wouldn’t be too strong.
– Concerning degree of folding toes and sole to make them natural.
– Basic feet, flipflop feet. Total 2 kind of feet parts.

  • This sounds absolutely perfect, can not wait to see Saint in his beautiful new form. This is truly a dream come true for me as I have been looking for a saint for a while now.

  • “the structure of inside or body will be totally different. So the value of the Original Bermann will be kept.”

    I have been buying and loving your dolls for about 8 years now and was not going to say anything about this (very upsetting) situation, but this did it for me.
    Nobody cares about the INSIDE of the body.
    Regarding the Bermanns, the body is secondary, 90% of Bermanns value is in his face. And you are saying that you will do your best to try to recast the face as close to the original as you can. Old Bermanns will not have ANY value after this.

    There are so many ways to do make money on Bermanns without making anyone upset, I can name 3 just off the top of my head:
    Make a very limited batch, in special limited skintone, with higher price (like 50 pcs for 1500 each). They will cost less then on secondary market, both old and new will be valuable. You will make the money you so obviously need, spend less time and less money on making them.
    Make fashion size only, people will buy because Bermann, the old fanbase will not be offended.
    Make a cute baby version of Barmann – people are guarantied to lose their minds and open their wallets.

    But it looks like you are dead set on choosing the worst possible way – to remake them close to what they are and to sell as much as possible, and with discount to boot. The old fanbase is already pissed (and some of them played a great part in making your dolls popular and even cooperate with you now, so offending them like this is not a good idea), the new buyers will be pissed after a year of waiting time that will undoubtedly follow.

    I do understand that my opinion will not be heeded or probably even heard, just wanted to get this off my chest.
    Seriously, I love you despite my utter disappointment, but what you need is not un-limiting your only limited doll, what you need is to hire a good marketing manager.

  • Oh my God!! I am sooo happy! An so excited to see how the new Saint will be! I love the fashion size! I will buy one for sure ๐Ÿ™‚

  • Please do not make a detachable penis. Too, Khan is a bit thick looking in the torso … will the new Bermann and Saint be more slender than that?

  • I totally agree with ELENA!

    “What you need is not un-limiting your only limited doll, what you need is to hire a good marketing manager.”
    THIS! Sooo true. Because after you sell may be 200 Bermanns people will stop buying them, they will get tired of them eventually. And then what?

    This is the worst business decision, really.

    – It “unlimits” Bermanns. Makes them common thing. No one cares that much about the body! You are recreating the face! The face IS the important part, not the inside or outside of the body.

    – It breaks harts of many Dollshe fans. I know it seems ok for you to loose a couple of fans. But there are much more than ” a couple”. And you really offended them.

    – You company image and your own reputation will suffer even more than they are already suffering. And it is really sad to see how people react when they hear “Dollshe” today. No one believes you when you talk about “last sale”, “I will mail out the orders in 3 months” etc. People just assume that your are lying. It seems like you don’t care about your customers any more. And it shouldn’t be like this!
    Now you break the only promise that was not broken so far.. and some people just laugh. I myself heard “I knew he was going to do it” like 20 times during the last 2 days. Isn’t it sad?

    – You will get fast money, but it is just a one time thing. The company problems won’t go away. And the money won’t last.

    Is it really worth it?

    I also think that if you absolutely need to recreate Bermann it would be better to make another limited edition or fashion size only. Otherwise you totally destroy the value of Bermann.

    I’m sorry for saying that. I always loved and supported you.. But this situation just breaks my heart.((

  • I do understand how everyone feels about this, but ultimately it is your business. I know you are happy with your decision and that is what really matters. I would avoid using the term limited edition in the future though. At the very least I would not specify how limited it is. I wish you well, and I can’t wait to see all your new creations.

  • Hi wanted a Bermann for long long long time ago. When they were releases I was a student and was totally impossible for me to afford one, so for me this is just a dream. The problem is that you said that you will star the delivery in January/February and we all know that this is not true because there were people waiting for over a year for you last releases. Also for me is crazy to buy a doll without seeing even a prototype taking into account that the body sculpture will be something new. I think is not fair for customers to wait undetermined time for also an undetermined doll. That’s why I don’t feel confident about purchasing him even I really love this doll so much.

  • I am so excited for this!

    Finally no more jacked up priced for the old Bermanns and people will be able to have the “New Bermann Experience” just like how people did before. I like that you will be changing a couple things too so that people who had the first editions will still have that exclusiveness to cling to, if they really feel opposed to a new Bermann.

    New Saint I am also looking forward to! Saint is my favorite sculpt and I am excited to see the new body you will be including with this. Very interested in the “I want you” hands! Wonder what pose it will be…
