Considering the long running sales post on here for the slot in the Queue, I'd say no.
I know nothing of Sinthetics business or their operations, but it feels very much like this is a not the main business interest. I would assume they have the moulds, parts, and tooling available to construct the skeleton, lay the foam core, and them pour the silicone. So where is the hold up?
From what Brash was saying over on TDF (when he was trying his best to fill the void left in Ruby13 by the death of his Father) this takes a week or so as each stage has to be left to cure / dry / set before the next can be started.
Allow another 3 weeks for finishing (detailed work takes time) and you have something like 1 doll per month. 12 a year. Assuming they can only work on 1 at a time.
This in itself would suggest if they have 36 orders in before yours, you're going to be waiting 3 years, but the killer for them is the total lack of communication.
No one actually knows!
