How long must I wait for my bobbleheads?

There are several options for the speed of sculpting and shipping during the checkout process. We offers a market-leading turnaround time. We can create and deliver your bobblehead to you in less than 10 business days. The duration displayed as "Sculpting and Delivery" options are applicable for orders of a single custom doll. In most cases, we will require additional time for the creation of additional identical copies, especially if ordered in large numbers. While we offer unlimited free revisions and a complimentary proofing process, every change will require additional 2-5 business days. The sculpting time starts after all details of the project are clear and confirmed (in some cases, mock-ups are needed to specify all details before we start with the sculpting process).

What is proofing?
We will send you in-progress preview photos of your bobblehead during the creation stages. You are able to suggest changes to our artists after you have viewed these proofs. This procedure ensures that you will be fully satisfied with the final outcome.
Do you use 3D printing, or are your bobbleheads sculpted by hand?
3D printing could theoretically be used to produce dolls that have a high level of likeness. However, this would entail a full face/body scan at the producer's facilities. Processes that involve 3D printing from photos are not superior to hand-sculpting as the photos do not provide sufficient details for these machines. Dolls2u therefore uses only the most talented artists on this planet to create your bobblehead. Human artists are able to provide an artistic touch to the creation process and can even use photos that are not perfect, while still ensuring a great outcome!
Will my bobblehead look exactly like the photo?
Bobbleheads are also known as a 3D cartoonization. This means that the dolls will resemble the person in the photo but with a slight cartoon effect, which is normally added by the artist. This cartoon effect is what makes this product so popular as an amazingly funny and unusual gift. An exact replication of the person's features is not always possible, because photos sometimes fail to capture the true nature of someone's face. However, our artists will create your figurine with a very high degree of resemblance.
What materials are used?

We use Polyresin.

Most bobblehead providers use polymer clay and then they bake and mold the dolls, you even can see the maker's finger print on the dolls, and the dolls are easily broken. this material will dry out and crack after a year - all that money you spend on making a keepsake goes down the drain.

Dolls2u was the first large bobblehead company to make individual bobbleheads, and we've been making them for many years now. Dolls2u utilizes a high grade Poly Resin to make our bobbleheads, this is the same material that we use in our retail bobbleheads.

All of our materials are guaranteed to be extremely durable, non-toxic and certified in accordance with the highest possible industry standards.

What photographs should I send?

Generally, we need just 2 good quality and clear photographs of the individual needed to be sculpted on the bobblehead - 1 front-view and 1 side-view.

The output of the bobblehead depends on the quality of the photograph. Therefore, we always recommend that the photograph should have a smiling face or with some unique facial expression. We strongly advise against sending us wedding photos or artistic photos that use soft lenses, but lack in facial details.
