Penny: Ready To Ship — A Skeptical User’s (Cautiously Optimistic) Take

I’ll admit, when I first saw “Penny: Ready To Ship” splashed across the absolute sex dolls website, my eyebrow went up.

You know the look. Another redhead doll, teeny frame, built-in vagina option and all that jazz. She’s in a California warehouse and ready to ship—supposedly 3-7 business days after you click ‘buy’. No customizations unless you want to wait longer. Sounds simple enough… but is it really?

What Actually Shows Up at Your Door

There’s always that nagging doubt with these things. Will she show up looking like the photos? Or will there be some weird factory mishap—wrong wig, strange proportions, something off about the face? I’ve definitely seen stories online (maybe too many Reddit threads) where what arrived was not exactly what was promised.

But Penny comes as pictured. That’s the deal here; no surprises, no tweaks, just what you see is apparently what you get. Her stats are right there: C-cup S-TPE sex doll, 5’2” (okay technically they say 5’3” but whatever), and weighing in at 84 lbs—which is lighter than some gym bags I’ve carried but still not nothing if you’re hauling her around by yourself.

The Details They Don’t Put On Billboards

She has gel breasts (which… yeah, feel different from regular TPE), standing feet for those who care about posing or storage (I do), and a steel skeleton with movable joints. The three main options—vaginal, anal, oral—are covered with specific measurements down to fractions of an inch: Vagina depth 7.1”, anus 6.7”, mouth almost 6”. Not bad for realism if that matters to you.

The proportions are kind of classic WM Doll territory: Bust just under 33 inches, waist barely over 20 inches (tiny!), hips nearly 36 inches. Athletic-ish? Maybe more skinny than athletic if we’re being honest.

Fast Shipping vs Customization — The Tradeoff

Here’s where my skepticism gets poked a little bit—in a good way actually. If you want your doll fast and don’t care about custom touches like eye color or a different wig or whatever else people like to change… this is probably one of the quickest ways to get an actual WM Doll in your house without waiting weeks for overseas shipping and customs roulette.

If you do care about personalization though? You’re out of luck unless you click through for customization—and then it’s back to waiting again. I guess it depends on how picky you are or how patient.

An Unexpected Side Note About Storage

Weirdly enough—I never thought much about where these dolls sit before someone orders them. But knowing Penny is stored in California gives me this odd peace of mind compared to drop-shipping from who-knows-where in China or Europe or wherever else these things usually come from.

Might just be me projecting my own anxieties onto logistics though.

Is It Worth It If You’re Impulsive?

Honestly—if your brain works anything like mine—you probably have moments where waiting even five days feels like forever once you've decided on something big(ish). This whole “ready to ship” setup takes away some of that delayed gratification pain point… assuming everything goes smoothly with delivery times (which isn’t always guaranteed even inside the US).

But hey—it beats rolling dice with international tracking numbers that vanish for days at a time.

One Last Thought on Realism vs Expectation

I remember thinking when I unboxed another TPE doll ages ago—the skin felt surprisingly lifelike but also cold as heck right out of the box; not sure why nobody talks about that part much online. Penny being S-TPE should have similar texture and warmth potential once she acclimates indoors—but don’t expect miracles straight outta cardboard.

Anyway—I’m still slightly skeptical every time someone promises “exactly as pictured,” but if absolute sex dolls can deliver on this one consistently… maybe it’s worth giving them cautious optimism instead of outright suspicion next round.

Not sure if anyone ever really gets used to having these things delivered so quickly—that part still feels surreal every single time.
