Mature-looking Mini discussion

In my opinion the DoD boy MSD-sized dolls (especially the guardian boys: Si, Wi, U, & Hoo) are very mature looking, I own a Si and a Yen from there and while the wait is a pain (around 6 weeks after confirmed payment) I've yet to be disappointed. But that's just my thought ^^;

 

Souldoll boys have a mature looknig body, and the faces can be painted to look a bit older.

Orient doll Tae looks VERYY mature to me too :3

and ther'a always the minifee

 

I imagine the small-headed boy you're talking about is the new Orientdoll Tae? He's soooo lovely Myself and a friend who's getting him (Emsie on here) compared his measurements to Kid Delf measurements, and the smallest thing is definitely his head, a good 1-2 inches smaller iirc. However, the rest of his body wasn't as out of proportion as his head, so it's going to be very interesting to see him next to other MSDs!

I would very highly recommend either Volks SDC Arashi, or Luts Mini Fee El or Chiwoo. (I also think Volks Schulze is quite mature-looking.) Arashi still has a cute, boying look to him but has a more sculpted body, and with the right face-up he can look a lot more mature. MNF El and Chiwoo are basically the 60cm dolls in mini form, so that's really nice.

I've been in the exact same situation as yourself, and have gotten to the point of just throwing my hands up and... buying 60cm dolls >_< I really don't understand the reluctance from companies to make mature 45cm dolls, and it bugs me!

 

Orientdoll Tae most definantly, but he's a bit short. Narin from Narindoll Creative, depending on his faceup, can look very mature, Souldolls, again though, depending on the faceup and the Mini Fee's.

 

I think the mini fee El looks like a young man, not a boy.

 

Check out soulkid Harang.. his little knowing smirk makes me think that he'd make a really good brothel owner ^.~ *LOL*

 

The Unoa boys are definately 'mature minis'.
There has been much giggling regarding their optional part penises.

I think Dollshe has mature looking male dolls but I would have to agree Unoa...seems to be the most mature looking I think.

 

Narins are really mature looking as well~ i love them! they're awesome~

 

I started a thread very similar a little while ago
I've found that a MiniFee El is mature looking, also a Dollmore U-Jee, and a Narin [which I have settled for], you could also look at the Unoa boys - they're little hotties!

 

I've got an modded AR Ren who's absolutely the eldest of my minis. Face ups can make a world of difference and the AR mini body is not child-like at all.

Here's Zhao with two of my Kens:



Doesn't he look like he knows something they do not?

 

I'm looking for a saint-like doll in MNF size.

sorry, if this isn't the right place to post this, tell me.

I just got my first doll, a MNF girl, and I would like to get her a partner. I've looked at the boys for MNF and none of them strike me as manly. I love the saint mold but he's too massive.

Is there a manly doll out there for me?

........Mod Note.....

This is a discussion about what dolls may be mature minis.

Have you seen Limho from Limwha Doll? He is to die for! I think he will definately be the boyfriend for my Narae. See pics here: http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?t=68074&highlight=limho

 

I would say Tae- his body really reminds me of a Dollshe boy, but he probably wouldn't work for your girl. I also think Limho has great potential to be made "manly" though ^_^

 

The Dollzone male bodies are decently masculine, at least on par with the usual MNF boys, and that's probably the most mature mini body you are going to get.

 

So here's the deal...
I'm buying a DOC Homme Kirill here soon, but the thing is...
I'd really like a more mature body for him.
I'd like him to be a bit taller then my Twing-key, and also... well... DOC boy bodies seem to lack a little sumpin' sumpin' in the crotch area. XD (TINY! It's tiny! TT___TT Ugh. I sound so perverted -- but it's true!)

Ahem. Yeah.
So are there any mature MSD bodies out there that match well with DODs new resin color?

 

Dollzone 1/4 male body is fairly mature, and I know it matches some DOD resin. New or old, I have no idea, but I think someone knows :3

 

LatiDoll's new Blue Line boys come with a muscular, mature body. The Lati resin is a bit more yellow than DoD resin though.

 

Under Luts Fairyland you can actually find the Minifees. They are mature minis (I actually have one on the way! A MNF Shushu!^o^ ).

 

I just had a whole long post with a list and descriptions written out, and in the midst of my research, I hit Apple-R (refresh) instead of Apple-T (new tab), so I lost the whole thing. I'll do my best to replicate what I had, but I'm sure it won't be the same. I'm sorry!

• CP/Luts Mini Fee - Mentioned above, these are mostly smaller replicas of the full-size Delf, though there are a few sculpts unique to MF. Some people have put Kid Delf heads on the mature bodies, as well. (http://www.eluts.com)
• Unoa Quluts - A series of dolls sculpted by Gentaro Araki, an artist also known for the now-discontinued Unoss. These dolls are sold only on a preorder basis, and orders are being taken until July 9th for the girls (Sist and Lusis). You can swap out faceplates and body parts to customize your doll further. You must sign up with Crescent Shop to place a preorder, but do a search for Unoa on the forums, and you'll find many pictures. (http://www.crescent-shop.com)
• Narindoll - A series of dolls sculpted by Korean doll artist Bimong, now produced under Narin Creative. You can choose from a variety of faces when ordering, and custom facepainting is available. Dollfair handles the overseas distribution for Narindolls, and Catrina/Dollyholic can help you through the ordering process. (http://www.dollfair.com)
• Limhwa/Limho - Another pair of Korean artist dolls. These are also distributed through Dollfair. (http://www.limhwa.com)
• MiniSup - Same as above. (http://www.supiadolls.com)
• N-Dolls - Same as above. (http://www.n-dolls.com)
• Castle Anne - A newer breed of mature mini--I'm not sure if anyone here has one yet. She is in the same scale as Unoas and Narindolls, so she can share wigs, eyes, and presumably clothes with them. (http://www.castleanne.com)

This is just a starting point, but it should cover most of the popular choices--I'm sure others will be happy to weigh in with their personal experiences. The mini size is a great scale, and there are lots of mature options out there. I actually prefer them to the more popular 60cm size.

Orient Doll has some very mature minis you might want to check out.

 

i'm bias with my female dolls. have you looked at www.Domuya.net? they have very nice mature bodies and they are on sale right now. you can always get the body and find a head more suited to what ever character you have in mind

 

I suggest Narin/Narae, CP Mini Fee and maybe Phantom dolls? (http://phantomdoll.com/main2.html) Even though I don't really like the bodies, Siamese and Korat have pretty 'mature' looking faces, IMHO.

 

(wow Good job Kalmia - links too!)

There are tons of mature minis - there may even be more mature ones at this point than immature ones. But you have to care a bit about head size, eye size, and height if you plan to using them standing next to other dolls in a story.

There is a large group of more expensive ($500+) mature minis from Korea - Narindoll Narin and Narae 43cm (see http://www.dollfair.com ), Supia, N-Doll, Limhwa, and a new one Castle-Anne. Also the Japanese company AlchemicLabo's Unoa girls who come flat chested with optional large bust piece for an extra charge (pre-orders occur rarely and one is ending very soon!). These dolls typically are 43cm with 6-7 inch heads and 12-14mm eyes.

There is another large group of lower priced mature minis (as low as $250 painted), some from Chinese companies such as Dollzone, Laidoll, Angel of Dream, Angell-Studio, and others and these often (but not always) have larger heads, larger eyes, and are taller (maybe 44cm).

And there are many others including the three Souldoll Soulkid dolls that are mature - Miryu, Yewon, and Apple (Apple is new and very cute). DIM (Doll in Mind) also has some minis. Dollsandfriends is currently listing the three Souldolls I mentioned: http://dollsandfriends.com/souldoll.html

The Fairlyland dolls at http://www.eluts.com have already been mentioned (they are generally called MNF, mini fee, or minifee so they can be have to search for on this board!). Some people have also put some Delf kid heads on Fairyland body but you not all heads are available separately, some look large on Minifee, and you have to find a match in their skin colors (they are slowly switching their dolls to newer bodies in a new color called realskin). I don;t really recommend a hybrid as your first doll, especially in a skin color that is being phased out.

I am not sure, but Volks Super Dollfie Cute (aka SDC) may also be mini-sized mature girls.

You can see some of the Dollzone and DIM dolls at http://www.junkyspot.com and DM also at http://www.denverdoll.com. You can also check http://www.dollsandfriends.com and http://www.bjdollarama.com

And I am sure I missed plenty - this guide may have some more - look in Mature Mini:

I'd then highly recommend the little Narins and Naraes.
They look, in my opinion very mature. Go search in the Narin/Narae discussionthread for looooooots of pictures.

 

The Latidoll blue line has mature boys and girls. Also one of the few companies who offers a muscular boy body.
http://www.latidoll.com (a small note: this site gives some problems)

Link to the blue line (incase you have a problem with their site)

 

For an innocent childlike face there is Bluefairy Tiny Fairy with the mature Blossom body ($20 additional for this option):

Note - the mini size Orientdolls do not mix well with other company's minis except for maybe Unoa-2 who is also fashion-doll proportions. Their heads are much smaller than any other minis (5.5 compared to the usual 6.5 to 7.5), their eyes are smaller (10cm), and their bodies and much slimmer - more like a fashion doll.

Carolyn

 

I also recommend a complete doll for your first, but if you really want the minifee girl body you could consider some Delf kid heads and Minifee body. Here is a thread that shows some. Ani and Ttory work pretty well this way and I also saw a cute Woori girl once. The heads look a bit larger but a head with a small face seems to work.

I saw someone mention the soulkid! now they are making every soulkid head with the new body type, so if you like any of the head it will be coming with the new body since they stopped doing the old one.

link to the soulkid!

 

Yes. The luts Kid Delfs look rather young. But the Luts Minifees are just mini versions of Delfs.

The Dollzone 1/4s look mature too.

Hmmm. DIM 40cms look mature too, but there isn't a big selection.

Dreamofdoll 40cms look mature also.

 

From what I've seen, Angel of Dream seems to have really.. defined male bodies. o_o;

 

Dream of Doll's Girl Body 2 is definitely mature...Fergie wasn't talking about herself in My Humps, it was definitely DOD's new MSD! *snerk*

DOCs tend to have childish faces, but that's where the faceups come in! Here is my Yen girl with faceup by comicbookartistboi; she's supposed to be about 30.



It is not the best photo, but I think you can see that she's got quite the tracts of land to the point where she's busting out of her shirt, LOL...

 

/

 

Luts Mini Fee, Unoa, Lati Blue, Narin, Newer DoCs are a few suggestions.
MNFs are mini size versions of the Delfs.

 

Are you looking for a mature doll (tall, slim, girls are shapely with breasts)? if so, the list above is a good start. Add to that the mature Souldoll Soulkids... the mature Soulkid girls are Miryu, Yewon, Mirebeol(spelling?), Lin, and Apple, and I think there is at least one boy in that group. The other Soulkids are immature. Also Latidoll Blue line of girls and boys, and in less expensive dolls there are Dollzone, Angel of Dream, Angell Studio. Also I think the DIM minis may be mature. The other Korean dolls member Dollyholic is agent for are mature - besides Narindoll (see dollfair.com) there are Supia, N-Doll, and Limhwa.


Or are you looking for an immature body with a more mature looking face? (harder to find).

And if you mean specifically MSD (i.e. Volks Mini Super Dollfie), then I doubt you will find any mature looking ones but I am no Volks expert. Volks means for the MSD's to look like younger siblings of their SD's. However, they also sell SDCute (Super Doll Cute) which I believe are mature minis.

This is a helpful but incomplete guide and I see one error - I believe DOD/DOC Petsha and possibly another DOC mini is mature, but she is listed in the immature section. Note - DOC means Dream of Child, a section of Dream of Doll (DOD).

I just look at mature minis a LOT!

And I forget one - the one I am waiting for - Unoa! Unoa 1.0 and 1.5 are mature mini girls if the large bust torso is added. But they are very infrequently sold, and scalped for much more in auctions in between those infrequent sales. A long-awaited sale of them occurred this summer.

There are also a couple of smaller mature minis (small head, more fashion-doll measurement body) - they go well with each other but not so well with the more the more standard-sized minis. These would be Orientdoll Dae size, Unoa 2.0, Domuya Flexi-fashion (discontinued?), and there may be one or two others.

Carolyn

 

OH! I have another to add, Dolkot Day. They are slender and look pretty mature.

 

Also...

BlueFairy/Minoruworld "Tiny Fairy" can be purchased with a mature "blossom" body for slight extra cost, but their faces are pretty young looking.

Castle Anne is another new mature girl.

Carolyn

 

The Angel of Dream MSD sized dolls are definitely among the more mature looking for their size.
http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?t=139354
AND they now have US stores that carry them so even if you are not in the US, you get them much faster than from the factory since the stores have them on hand.

 

DIM Elena is a mature mini - she has very nice curves. I just love my girl. She could easily pass as an early college age girl, based on build.

Serendipity Valencia is a mature mini - his age is listed as 14. I think he is slimmer than most boys would be at age 14. He makes a good early/mid teen character.

~Shannon

 

The soulkid all come with the mature body now (since june I think), so there's no immature one, unless you buy one second-hand from the marketplace

 

All the Dollzone MSD are looking mature....

 

It is best if you reconsider if you really want MSD. I agree Soulkids are nice choice for mature MSD, however if you buy Soulkid, be careful because there are 3 bodies now (and the eldest one is not mature looking). Other mature looking MSD is Narae43 and basically that's it. I bought MSD (Souldkid Miryu) as my first (and the only, for now, because I collect mainly fashion dolls) BJD. While she is cute, I am annoyed that it is very difficult to buy any clothes for her, everytime I see BJD clothes for sale, they are usually made for SD. This is so frustrating! MSD clothes are same as expensive but selection is maybe 10 times smaller compared to what is offerred made for SD. My Soulkid has big wardrobe due to the fact that I collect 16" fashion dolls and many of their outfits can be shared with MSD.
My advice is if you want mature looking BJD, spend some more money and go for SD. If I was buying BJD now, I would buy Elfdoll Soah.
Also you MUST read about French resin yellowing problem (Narae is French resin, Soulkids are something else) before you buy your BJD. I would never buy French resin doll, unless she is tanned. Jaundiced dolls are disgusting.
As last comment, mature looks depends on face up, what you can see very well if you click on Soulkid Miryu database link above. My Miryu (my avatar) has factory face up and is less mature looking compared to Boleyn's Miryu striking face up. I am considering to have mine redone, as soon as I find someone here in UK who can do airbrushing.

 

Hellooo!

I'm pretty sure that this is the right plac to post this >_>
But please feel free to move it to where it belongs if it is not.

So, I'm looking for skinny and mature looking mini size boy body [and preferably inexpensive >_>].
I did some research, but did not get anything I wanted.
What I mean by 'mature' does not mean musculin . I just don't want bodies like volks mini body.
Volks msds' hands just... drive me crazy [I used to LOVE those fat baby hands.. Somehow my taste has changed].
Please do make suggestions =D !

 

Did you take a look at the AOD 1/4 male body?

 

I think Latidoll has two "Blue" (mini) male bodies, and one is more muscular and one more "stylish".
http://www.latidoll.com/2007_en/ (2007 link to bypass long-loading front page)
They seem to be out of stock right now, and I do not see how you would select body A or B, but they show both:
http://www.latidoll.com/2007_en/index.htm?mode=product_view&big=4&mid=45&num=1040


Another fairly masculine but somewhat petite body is Luts Minifee aka Fairyland:
http://www.eluts.com/
http://www.eluts.com/frontstore/Ite..._id=lutsdoll&level=yes&mother_catalog_num=125


This is the store for AOD (Angel of Dream) 1/4 boy body and you can also find the bodies on Ebay:
http://www.aoddoll.net/
http://www.aoddoll.net/product.asp?id=497

And a caveat - I have zero idea what matches Volks, in resin color, or neck size, or head to body proportions.

Carolyn

 

Yeah>_> It was too musculin for the character I have in my mind

 

Latidoll body looks too musculin and stylish body doesn't look as skinny as I want my character to be
And MiniFee bodies have those little... tummy >_<
Gawd.. I hate myself for being so picky

 

Angell Studio 1/4 seem pretty skinny. They are French resin, though, if you're using a different head. http://www.angell-studio.com/shop/index.php?gOo=goods_details.dwt&goodsid=61&productname=

B&G 1/4 are also seem skinny, though maybe not terribly mature. http://app.bgdoll.com/enterprise/js...oll.com&browTempId=5&reloadUserKey=cAnonymous

 

Try the Angelregion/Bluefairy body. The AR resin matches more things and you could probably could do a decent Volks match with it.

 

Did you see the Stylish Lati boy body (shown on the same page) - it is not muscular.

Carolyn

 

Dollzone bodies fit that description ^^

 

Orientdoll boys have a nice build that makes them look more mature, and they are not very expensive. Sadly, they're a bit smaller than normal. Still thought I might throw that out there .
