1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Mature-looking Mini discussion

Apr 20, 2006

    1. Luts has their model delf line. They have 45cm tall versions of some of their larger dolls, plus other sculpts made for the line.
       
    2. I know it's been awhile since anyone posted on this thread, but I am now looking for a mature msd boy for one of my future girls. I know, getting ahead of myself here but it took me forever to decide which girl to get to begin with, so I might as well start looking for her guy. A lot of the ones mentioned already in the thread that I could still find were not quite as mature as I was looking for. I love the look of the dollshe msd males but I just won't be able to spend that much. Anyone have any new leads?
       
    3. Hi, I've never been on this thread before but just happened upon it. A new BJD company (new as of August 2015) will be releasing mature MSD male dolls sometime this summer. The company is Raccoon Doll. I hope that helps. :)
       
    4. I am also waiting for Racoondolls to put grown up males. The will ruin me, when they do :D And I said "no more dolls this year!" Well... :P Man thinks, God changes. :D
       
    5. Oh thank you for letting me know! I guess I nerd to start saving up!
       
    6. So has Raccoon doll actually posted an announcement and some preview photos?
       
    7. Hi, sorry for the delay getting back to you. I haven't been on for a few days. Raccoondoll hasn't posted any pictures of any male dolls yet but has confirmed his plans to myself and several others through Q&A on his website. He has produced 7 female dolls... My avatar being one of them. To give an idea of his style he made the sculpt for Iplehouse EID man Rex during his years there with that company. I hope that helps and I will let you know when official pics are posted :)

    8. I am a primarily mature mini collector and I'm considering what my next doll will be.

      I have a DC Bella, a DZ Gill, and a MyDolling HeeAh. They all tend towards realistic more than stylised I think, and I'm only interested in girls. What might you guys recommend? I was thinking maybe a darak-i girl, also maybe Doll In Mind, Narae maybe... I like minifee bodies but their heads don't really appeal.
       
    9. Hi, I don't have much experience in many of the BJD companies or styles so I'm not sure how much help I can be...lol. I personally like the Raccoon Doll girls. The proportions are quite realistic. I own a few of those so I can speak with first hand knowledge there. I have seen some very nice pictures of Narae and also Bimong Meronica that look rather realistic. :)
       
    10. Hi I'm so sorry... I don't know how I missed your post. I too had a "no more dolls this year" pact with myself but if the Raccoondoll males are anything like I'm expecting that promise to myself is out the window. :cool:
       
    11. Lumedoll has also mature-looking female MSDs. They are quite realistic. ;) They suffer from bad promo photos, though :/ I've seen few of those in person and I was like "oh wow, they are beautiful!" But their company face-ups are not my cup of tea.
       
    12. That's great to know...especially about the promo photo not doing the dolls justice. Thank you :)
       
    13. I own an Angel of Dream boy, so I'm a little biased, but you may want to give them a looksie. They can look childish or adultlike, depending on the faceup and the clothes they're wearing.
       
    14. I'm a slim, (more or less )mature looking Mini collector. My definition of mature looking is a more or less mature Body with right Proportions, Small Head( not more than 6/7) and small eyes. Details in Hand and Feet are Important too. What does it help, if you have a mature Body and chubby undefined Babyfingers.
      So here's my summary:
      Lumedoll, aGatti, Supia, Limhwa, Narae/Narin, Unoa, look especially at the 2.0 and the older Brother and Sisters, Souldoll Minis and Vito Size, Soom Idalean 51 and the Soom Rosette Pure,
      Dollshe Craft and Fashion Minis ( there is a sale right now, so you can get one for around 400$, Arsene for 330$ )
      Withdoll, Minifee Karsh and maybe 2 or 3 other Heads and the Chic line.
      Iplehouse, but there Heads are rather big. But i can tell you that these Heads work great with Souldoll NL and Vito Body.
      the old N-Doll Miru and Miso - Misu?
      Fashion Line and Zaoll from Dollmore
      Luts Model... i don't know. The bodies are ok but the Faces... looks still to childlike for this Body,
      Angel of Dream.. is not so my taste, but why not.
      Racoondolls - never heared of them... need to look them up.
      Do we have all?

    15. Jumping in here but I just got an Anna Dobryakova doll..actually two ...and her dolls would definitely fall into the mature mini category. Maybe more fashion doll-size. I'm not sure if she will be making mature guys but she does have several girls. Her link: http://www.tendercreation.com Here is a pic posted with Anna's permission:[​IMG]
       
    16. I had the EXACT same question - so thanks for all the suggestions
       
    17. My vote goes for AquariusDoll. Their 43cm line is pretty realistic, at least in my opinion. :daisy
       
    18. @PeppermintPocky You're right. They definitly mature Minis. I made myself a memo, they fit my collection:love
      but i still need a Body for my Unoa Boy...this has priority.
       
    19. Aquarius Doll for sure, but if they just made males to go with their girls!
       
    20. Hi everyone. I'm hoping to purchase my first msd size bjd soon as it's the size I feel most happy with. However, most companies only offer very baby faced doll heads for these smaller bodies. My question is, are there any more adult looking msd size dolls out there at all?
      Thank you to everyone who replies. I appreciate your help & kindness.
