Bindings. For shipping purposes your doll was packaged with straps binding their ankles to their thighs. Rest assured that your BetterThanReal doll is fully immobile, the bindings are there purely to save space during transit. The straps can be safely removed, and your doll posed in any position you wish.

Diapers. Your doll was fed prior to boxing and shipped with a full stomach. Please be aware that some contents may have settled during transit. The provided diaper should have contained all of it. We recommend that sissy dolls are kept in diapers permanently to limit mess in their storage location.

Expression. Your doll may appear to have a expression of terror, shock, worry or surprise. Don't worry, this is a natural, the subject permanently retains the expression they had at the moment the plasticisation process commenced. This is particularly common with non-voluntary sissy dolls, but most customers who have sent subjects to be involuntarily plasticised report that they prefer this look.

Feeding. As stated, your doll was shipped with a full stomach, and will not require feeding for at least a three weeks. As they are fully immobile, nutrition is only required to maintain brain function and sense organs. We can supply monthly tubes of nutrient slurry to keep your BetterThanReal doll in tip-top health for decades. Alternatively, if you're environmentally minded, you might consider our recycling option. And, naturally, even though you only have to feed your doll once a month, there's nothing stopping you feeding them as often as you like, and anything you like! They do have a sense of smell and taste, but the gag reflex has been completely removed.

Storage. Your BetterThanReal doll can be stored in any position you wish. Folded up, flat under the bed, or even upside down in the closet. Alternatively they make an attractive mannequin or bedroom conversation piece.

Unexpected sounds. While your BetterThanReal doll is designed to be as quiet as possible, you may occasionally hear it emit noises, especially in a very quiet environment. These may sound like whimpering, sobbing, or occasionally almost word-like cries for help. Please be assured that this is perfectly natural and can be safely ignored. If it becomes distracting, any commercially-available dildo gag makes an ideal noise blocker.
