I was so pleased to read of their inclusion!! Rule Update - Changes to the criteria for on-topic dolls So show em off!! Here is my beautiful baby boy, Alder! He is the Dalang sculpt and the first boy I ever found available! Hopefully he will have many nappy choo brothers and sisters in the future. I couldn't be happier with the first doll I ever have on this hobby! https://flic.kr/p/NaJoo2 https://flic.kr/p/NaJSst https://flic.kr/p/Nikuex https://flic.kr/p/MkvDWn https://flic.kr/p/MR6RGm
love nappy choo, glad we can post pics also wish there is more new face mold coming out , Anyone got happy choo, I love my happy choo also.
I would just be happy with them releasing more of the ones already created!!!! It's nearly impossible to find legit ones where their owners are looking to sell!! The doll is so lovely, no one wants to let them go I love making furniture and accessories for my boy! Has anyone ever restrung one? I am nervous about that prospect but I can see how much it needs doing!!!
I hope SOom is reading this so they can introduce new face sculpt, I love my nappy and happy soo much. Also wish they come in diff. skin colors too. I displayed mine in a doll house
Don't have any new pics of my nappy and happy but I have them in my flickr, click on chinadoll1 and go to my album and look for folder of nappy and happy chinadoll1
Thank you I got some twins and happy is triplets Also I ordered one Lili Happy Choo and waiting for her
@aureliaXaurita What pattern did you use to make his outfit? I am having a hard time sewing for this bottom heavy little guy! Its my daughter's first bjd and I can't get a sleeper right! I'm contemplating filing off his parts so she will just use dresses, lol!
Oh my goodness! No need to go so far haha! I am actually quite unable to sew! However there are many many tutorials to be found, here is one from an online group I'm in for making a nappy https://www.facebook.com/groups/113849662123138/permalink/386379604870141/ And here is one for a little dress for another doll size, simply add a strap at the back to extend the fit around. Pukifee/Littlefee-Iplehouse BID Baby boy will fit perfectly fine into lati and pukifee shorts and tee shirts, pants and long sleeves are too long. The clothes I have him in are made by Spampy( bonnet and nappy in green) and Gugu Moda (sleeperwith hood in tan and ivory) Hope this helps!!! Congrats on your little girls new boy!!
I love this sculpt as well and really hope Soom offers them again. Love the furniture. Would love to see more pics. I am searching high and low for a Nappy Choo.
I know your pain! I am searching as well as I have every intention of owning the full nursery!! do be careful when buying second hand as many many recasts are out for their original nappy Choo, sweet baby Choo, hallow baby Choo, happy baby Choo, and PoPo! If they haven't got the coa or box or swaddle- don't trust it!!
Thanks so much. I may have found one with all the originals, box and certificiate. I hope you fine yours. I want a nursery full too!
Hey there! Gotta up this topic with my Dong Dong. Even after five years, I've never came up with a name for him, so he remained as Dong Dong. I don't perceive him as a baby or a kid or an infant or whatever, he's just a dope little doll, lol
Oh my god he is my grail at this point I just love his face the most!! I have Dalang, and I also have a regular Nappy Choo now who is more or less ready to move on. The original sculpt never made me fall as hard as this one. I have a question, do you find that he is floppy at all? Both of mine were acquired many many owners passed down, and I think none of us ever knew how to restring! Have you ever done it, or felt the need to? Thank you so so so much for sharing!! I can't get enough of that face
Thank you, I'm so glad to hear it! As for floppiness, well, I don't feel the need to restring him. I don't think they're supposed to be super flexible, though, as it's an "infant" that barely sits/stands. Anyways, I also don't really play with him a lot, so I'm fine with any way he's stringed!
That makes sense! I just have trouble with the head looking straight- it tends to dips all the way backward and expose the top of his neck hold D: lol totally unnerving when you get the two together for a pose and are about to snap a shot when BAM! Head does the exorcist thing :'D lolol and the other I just wish could stand better, I get a few moments before tip over. I have a Popo I recently found on hold! One step closer to my nursery >.< I am so happy!! One of these days I'll sort out how to put a stinking picture IN my thread and do a group shot feel free to spam more of yours!!!! Totally enamored xD
Oh my gosh, I just recently started looking into the Nappy Choos and Dong Dong is my absolute *FAVORITE*. I love their little kewpie style hair tufts! So cute
Nah I l now! Just the best >.< I just WISH they would do a rerelease or offer them like a la carte!!!!
My little samurai~ Kimono and hakama for Nappy Choo made by me but Lati Yellow can wear them too. OctoKoinobori by Chibi Tako, on Flickr My handmade 1/8 scale Kimono and Hakama. My Hakama is totally wrong though ( •᷄ὤ•᷅) by Chibi Tako, on Flickr
oh my gosh those outfits are so tiny and ADORABLE did you use a pattern for the kimonos or did you whip them up on your own? They look amazing!!
Thank you~ I made these patterns myself after many trials but the pants are totally wrong though. They look okay but not how they are traditionally done by Japanese and I still have a lot to learn. I have created some free patterns for Lati Yellow in the past but I never tried them on Nappy Choo yet. If I have time next week, I will test them out and share those patterns with everyone here.
I'd love to own a Nappy Choo or Nappy Choo Popo, but it seemed impossible to get a hold of one Any suggestions?
Yes truly difficult!! Have you joined the nappy Choo face book pages? They are sometimes for sale there!
I can't believe Nappy Choo is finally on-topic! I haven't played with my little guy in a LONG time. But here's an old photo in celebration...
Loving all the Choo photos My little Nappy Choo is still waiting for a face-up and some love.....have had it for far too long in the box! I really MUST get it out and get it sorted. I love these little guys and girls I wonder why Soom don't have them up for order more often?? Seems strange when they're so popular.
Hello there..or here lol Please allow me to contribute to tthe discussion with some pics: Untitled Untitled I have made the face up, the hair and the body blush. However that was a couple of years before and I had to live abroad for sometime. Now I am back in every way and this is my first post so... Hello again everybody! I would like your opinion, I am going to redo the face up, do you thing that I should open his nostrils? I am thinking also of the possibility of giving him for adoption. What would you suggest?
He is adorable! I absolutely love the hair you did! Personally, I don't go for opening the nostrils. If you were going to sell, they are selling like hot cakes now. Just realize that you may not be able to find a replacement easily. It has been many years since they have sold them regularly.
Thanks a lot! I ill take your advice and just give him a new more happy face... I shall take more pics with his clothes on but the body blush makes him indeed a cutie pie....
Yay glad to see that our bubbas are now on topic!!! This is my little monster, Rowan, i have had hims since June 2014, i love him to pieces. Flickr Flickr Instagram post by Mimi's and Umiko's World • Apr 8, 2017 at 2:45pm UTC

I was wondering, what's the difference between Happy Choos and Nappy Choos? Did they just choose to call the newer ones Happy Choos, or do they have different bodies or something?
@Keri your twins are real cuties. It's been awhile since i was in here, i had forgot our bubbas were now on topic haha. I took this picture of Rowan a lil while back, which i loved how it turned out. Bubba Rowan in the night rain.
Please forgive my ignorance - is it possible to get different expression heads for Nappy Choo ? I’m totally obsessed with getting a Nappy Choo of my own.
I would love a Nappy choo Popo also , on Soom page they are sold out, nobody sells second hand and only recasts available where can i get a legit one?
Does anyone have photos of their choos with large dolls? I love their chubby bodies and wanna see scale
I see iMda has a new bebe body and one of the faces looks like Happy Choo Lili and it is named Lili. Then Soom has Nappy Choo available again for their 20th anniversary sale. So I’m trying to decide if I want the iMda bebe or one of the Soom Nappy Choo babies. I’ve always wanted Happy Choo Lili and a Nappy Choo but realized they were not available anymore but now both at once in a way, how do I choose?!
I think Soom/Neo-angel Region has tapped into my brain. Strange series of events... I received an email notice from etsy that some items I had bought two and a half months ago finally came up for review. They were onesies I'd gotten for my Dream Valley Ding, originally designed for Nappy Choo. While I was on etsy I decided to see if there were any new outfits for Nappy Choo/Ding, and ended up ordering several. So I'm seeing all these cute Nappy Choos and thinking, maybe I should get one to share the clothes! I checked Soom and several other retailers, but I only saw some on ebay and forbidden sites so I gave up. A few hours later I do my usual DoA scroll and what do I see? A just-posted announcement from a Soom rep that Nappy Choos are up for preorder. The hard part was ordering just one.
Oh my goodness, those are adorable! Does anybody know how tall the Nappy Choos are? I would like to know if the size works well with my other small BJDs.
@spih, I don't see measurements on the site, surprisingly! But I've been buying Nappy Choo clothing for my Dream Valley Ding and he is 12 cm, so I imagine they are close. edit: Well, I just noticed there is a drop-down "additional information" that gives dimensions of 27x16x6cm! So now I don't know what to think. I find it hard to believe they are 27cm tall. double edit: So now I found a googled page from Neo-angel Region that says Nappy Choo is 12cm. I doubt if they made a bigger version, especially with the price they are charging so I'm going to say 12cm is probably the correct size.
Nappy Choo is 12cm, Happy Choo and the new iMda Bebe are 14cm. Same head size though. I’m leaning towards Nappy Choo because there seems to be a lot of cute clothes for them and I’m not sure what would fit the iMda Bebe.
Thanks for the info about Nappy Choo size. I made some searches for owner pictures and found a couple that had a Nappy Choo together with a Lati Yellow or a Pukifee. The size appeared to work fine with those. Nappy Choo was shorter so the 12 cm height seems to be right. The weird dimension numbers are perhaps the box size.
