The mod team has re-evaluated Dollmore's line of resin 16" "Fashion" dolls. Initially, these dolls were being marketed as fashion dolls, and came only with heel feet and undetailed fashion-doll type hands, and were declared off-topic. Currently, however, the 16" line of resin dolls has been reworked. The females now come with optional flat feet, and both males and females have more detailed, consistent, overall body styling that is comparable to the level of their other doll lines. It is our happy consensus that they may be considered on-topic.

We are aware that the 16" resin line are still called "Fashion" dolls, but this specific case is a matter of Dollmore's habit of using line names relating to fashion and their pre-devised modeling backstory for many of their dolls. It does not refer to the construction or marketing styles of this particular line of dolls.

Please note that the 12" line of "FMD" dolls they produce have some that are made of ABS/PVC (the "Basic Gem"). These are still off-topic. The resin 32cm/12" dolls ("Kidult" or "Cute" lines on the Dollmore website) are on-topic, but where a sculpt is made in both versions, ONLY the resin version can be on-topic.
