JY Doll Temporarily Stops Offering Their Weight Reduction Option

On March 1, 2021, JY Doll officially announced that they will temporarily stop offering the weight reduction option for their dolls. According to JY Doll, the weight reduction body shapes still need to be improved, and therefore, they will stop offering it for the time being.

JY Doll first revealed the weight reduction option for their 170cm doll in October 2020, claiming that it reduced the weight by 10 kg (22 lbs). A video later showed that it actually reduced the weight by about 8 kg (17.6 lbs) rather than 10 kg, which is still pretty good. This option next appeared on their 165cm model, which reduced the weight by about 8.9 kg (19.6 lbs). All the bodies had to be redesigned for the weight reduction option, and eventually JY’s 159, 161, 162, 165, 170 and 171cm all had the weight reduction option.

It’s uncertain why JY Doll suddenly decided to stop offering the weight reduction option, but according to them, they needed to improve or re-design the body shapes. Perhaps, there were problems or complaints from customers. I will update this post when they resume the option again. Stay tuned!

Some Videos of JY Doll's Weight Reduction Dolls

Note: I am not very knowledgeable on how they reduced the weights of their dolls. The body shapes were re-designed, and supposedly they used a gel core in the body to reduce the weight. Instead of the doll being completely made of TPE, there is supposedly gel inside the body in place of some the TPE. The stoppage of this option may indicate that there may have been some issues, and they are currently resolving it.

Update: According to Sam from JY Doll, they temporarily stopped the weight reduction option not to re-design the bodies, but to take photography of the weight-reduced bodies so it wouldn’t mislead customers. The weight-reduced bodies have a different body shape from the original, so in an effort to represent their products accurately, they stopped the weight reduction option to take new photos.

Update 2: JY Doll resumed the sales of weight-reduced models. According to JY, they have redesigned the bodies so that the weight-reduced bodies match the original ones. Their tweet sounds like they redesigned the bodies rather than take new photos as previously mentioned.
