Two weeks into January, things are quickly getting back on track in the doll world. WM Doll returned with a cult classic, Top-Cydoll and MMX released beautiful new heads, FUDOLL has a new body, and more. And, of course, pretty photosets left and right. Let’s keep it short and sweet and let the photos do the talking this time – as we jump straight into another week of doll news.

WM Doll

A blast from the past, WM Doll revived their thicc viral sensation, “Jasmine,” this time in silicone – and surprisingly – as part of their “Ultra-Light” series. While she may not hit as she did in 2019, the once-popular “163H + Head #198” goes from 48.5 kg (107 lbs) in TPE to 33 kg (73 lbs) in silicone. Not too shabby, though this 163H isn’t exactly the same as the TPE version (it’s very slightly slimmer – which I guess was necessary to reduce the weight). Will this put WM Doll back on the map or are they 7 years too late?

SEDOLL

Meanwhile, SEDOLL launched their Ultra-Flex Fingers option for TPE and S-TPE dolls (which was only available for silicone before). Nice to see that their TPE series hasn’t been neglected.

Elsa Babe

Elsa Babe released 2 new heads: Suwabe Haruka and Momoi Mitsuyo. Two very safe and cutesy designs. However, Momoi Mitsuyo isn’t technically new; for whatever reason, they re-released her again.

Real Lady

Real Lady shared new photos of their 159cm Alodia (R9). Now in a lighter skin tone, the Hawaiian-inspired doll from a few months back looks noticably different here. Like a combination of cute, tired, and doe-eyed (almost animeish), she’s certainly different from the usual Real Ladies, but still has a certain charm about her.

Top-Cydoll

Still on fire, Top-Cydoll returned with 2 new heads: Stella and Mai. Starting with Stella, they nailed another stunning Western beauty, rocking a nostalgic, early-2000’s grunge/skater girl vibe.

In contrast, they also released a new head called Mai. Maintaining Y2K vibes (but in Japan this time), they gave her a strong kogal/gyaru theme – maximizing her “dolliness.” I also like this head, and both releases (like Jasmine) are nostalgic, blasts from the past.

And last, they shared new photos of their recent Sato Asuka. This time, she’s in a traditional kimono, but compared to their other heads, I think she looks a bit sad here.

MMX Doll

The other headliner, MMX Doll also released 2 new Western heads: Luna and Kelly. Starting with the previously-teased Luna, she’s simply gorgeous with plump lips and a maturer style. Yet another stunning beauty that fits great on their 170A (E-cup) body.

Extra photo

Next is Kelly, who was teased in their Christmas photos (that never came out). Of the two, I think I prefer Kelly who looks more natural and less over-the-top. Possibly celebrity-inspired, she’s a natural beauty with a well-sculpted and realistic face.

Fanreal

Fanreal shared more photos of their Uniseries AIO 170G Maria (ROS). They’ve shown Maria so many times by now, but her beauty simply can’t be contained.

They also shared more photos of their 166J Nora, highlighting her juicy cleavage once more. Despite the initial criticism, they certainly know what they’re doing with this body, and won many people over.

FUDOLL

Next, FUDOLL teased a new 165SW body (with Real Skin Texture) and head called Zhang Yinxi (that reminds me of Stellar Blade’s Eve – maybe even better than Game Lady’s?). Starting the year strong, they’re hyping her up, and while the large hanging breasts may not be for everyone, I really like the overall shape and proportions of her, though the neck looks a bit long (next to the drooping breasts).

Close-up Body Details

The photographer, Artemis77, also got a chance to showcase this doll (not sure if it’s the same head or not). Regardless, his brilliant photos show off even more details and angles, including LHP. While the body looks amazing on the surface, the love holes leave something to be desired.

Firefly Diary

Speaking of curves and busts, Firefly Diary’s milk maid (160Max body Liuli) is ready to serve. In an enticing cow bikini, her lovely breasts and cleavage are the main course. So appetizing, Gordon Ramsay would say “Finally, some good food.”

Funwest Doll

Funwest Doll shared new photos of their silicone Amy, paired with the 157G body for the first time. An experiment where cute meets thick, I think it was successful in the end.

MD Doll

MD Doll released a new head called Brianna. Continuing their new trend of light-skinned, black dolls, she looks pretty stylish in these simple but effective photos.

Jarliet

Meanwhile, Jarliet shared new photos of their 163cm Eve. In my opinion, this is still one of their best-looking heads (from 2024) that led to much better designs from them. She still holds up today.

Shedoll

A few weeks ago, I skipped over these photos of Shedoll’s 167D Kala (mainly since there weren’t many photos and no nude photos), but stumbling upon them again, I wanted to show them. She’s much different from what you’d expect from Shedoll.

Lacedoll

Speaking of skipping photos, after skipping many Lacedoll photosets, they have two new ones worth seeing. These feature their 163H Muxue in a CNY shoot, and Qingji (Green thorn), which I believe was the last new head I showed from them. Pretty nice posing here.

Strawberry Garden

Strawberry Garden released a new head called Wanying on their silicone 159cm body. They describe her much better than I can – something like a cherry blossom in royalty. In a cutesy or anime-ish way, I think she looks pretty cute.

CY Doll

CY Doll released a new head in Asia, showcased in an elegant dress. While similar to their other designs, they always look good, nonetheless.

SGD/FG Studio

SGD Studio (or FG Studio) began presales on their latest FG007 (1/3 scale figure), inspired by Mai Shiranui. Facially, she has their typical semi-realistic and cutesy aesthetic, though I find her face a bit plain this time. I like the body proportions though, which capture the video game character’s “thicc and bounciness.”

However, there’s an important distinction this time as they stated, “FG-007.. contains no adult-oriented explicit content.” People assume this means no nipples or genitals – but they’ve been incredibly vague and unclear. It’s possible they’re just protecting themselves on paper, but one X user said SGD told him there won’t be any nipples (but is possibly subject to change). Their listing also states “not for people under 18,” which was one of the new guidelines for Chinese e-commerce websites, so the industry-wide uncertainty continues to linger. I guess we won’t know for sure without seeing nude photos (which they may not show), so this has many potential customers riled up.

Sineem Doll

Last but not least, a reminder that a new brand called Sineem Doll recently launched. Their motto revolves around embracing imperfections, though as many people noticed, their perfect-looking dolls don’t quite match that description. Read more here.

Conclusion

That wraps up the second week of the new year. After a calm and quiet start to 2026, the storm of news finally came. WM revived their 163H “Jasmine” in hopes for relevancy once more (but is it too little too late?), while MMX and Top-Cydoll continued to impress with their beautiful and realistic heads. While some brands fizzled out, these two have remained at full speed. Meanwhile, FUDOLL’s Eve lookalike could potentially be a game-changer for them. Looks like every brand is making a statement in 2026, while maintaining their roots and overall style.

And then there’s SGD Studio, whose latest presale began in backlash and controversy – as people assume they removed the “adult parts” (which is still vague and unclear). A little drama to start off the year. Otherwise, this eventful week had a little of everything.

Also, it’s a good time to remind readers that with CNY coming up, be sure to check the cutoff times for various brands. Some brands like Aotume have already cut off new orders, while some others are in the last week of January. Then, it seems like most brands will take 1 week off for CNY (and return at the end of February). So, stay informed if you plan to order soon. Until next time!
