Time flies quickly as we’re halfway into May. While many people are glued to their TVs watching the NBA playoffs, sex doll brands continued grinding as usual. This week, brands shared more photosets than new releases, teased some updates, and released things they’ve previously teased. It’s another photoset-type of week, but still worth a look. If you like admiring doll photos, this is the week for you. Without further ado, let’s see what brands have been up to.
WM Doll
WM Doll teased an upcoming V4.0 skeleton. By the title, it’s most likely a ball-jointed skeleton similar to Zelex’s recent EXP Skeleton. Ball-jointed skeletons seem to be the next big trend.
Angel Kiss
Angel Kiss shared a new photoset of their 165cm body with Head S273 titled “Pole Dancer.” As expected, she looks pretty good with a slightly European look. However, I feel like they’ve shown this head and body a lot recently.
SE Doll
SE Doll shared a new photoset of their 163cm Kemeny (Head #119). Their photography has impressed lately, and these photos don’t disappoint. Here, Kemeny has a cute, freckled face, and college-girl look.
JY Doll
JY Doll released a new head (or photoset) called ManTing on their silicone 168cm body. She features a cute Asian face on a tall, curvy body.
Funwest Doll
Funwest Doll cosplayed their 162cm Chloe as Makima from the anime, Chainsaw Man. Like many brands, their photographer really over-presents the dolls (through makeup and editing), but at least they’re pretty to look at.
Piper Doll
The photographer, Dollface, teased some promo photos of Piper Doll’s latest 155cm Maria. Greatly differing from Piper’s usual faces, Maria has a more-mature, Western type of beauty. Personally, I think the proportions and curves look amazing on this weight-reduced 28 kg (62 lbs) doll, and she’s Piper’s first doll with articulated fingers.
Note: Dollface named her Maria, but Piper Doll calls her Lana.
Irontech
Irontech officially released the “Oral Function” and “Electric Hip & Waist” robotic features for their silicone dolls. Although their TPE dolls had these robotic options for a while now, their silicone dolls only now support them. These videos were teased and shown before, but here are the final launch versions.
Elsa Babe
Elsa Babe released a cute new anime head called Nozomi Mogami for their 148cm body. Once again, they nailed it with another adorable anime face. She’s in a stylish outfit that can be purchased with the doll.
Elsa Babe also unveiled the “mysterious breasts” option for their 160cm body. Turns out, it was mysterious for a reason. Rather than a bigger or smaller size, it’s actually 3 breasts on 1 body. We’ve seen this long ago from Doll Forever, but Elsa Babe revived the rare triple-breasts. Because it’s so strange and unique, I don’t think it’ll be very popular, but 3 is better than 2, right?
Zelex
Zelex shared a new photoset of their silicone 172cm body with Head GE107 in a bondage-style photoshoot. This Tamaki-inspired head looks quite cute and versatile with the moveable jaw. However, perhaps they went a bit overboard with the photo-editing (resulting in a CG look).
Sino Doll
Sino Doll officially released their slender 169cm (T169) body with the 3 heads they teased last week. Mi Daqiao and Mi Xiaoqiao both have model-like, Chinese faces. Meanwhile, the Ishihara Nozomi (JAV authorized) head looks decent, although they always seem slightly off to me. In my opinion, it looks very similar to their T22 Miteng head.
TAYU
TAYU released their previously-teased 158cm body with a new head called Noy. While the head looks interesting, the body is the real star of the show. It reminds me of Zelex’s X165 body (which was also 3d scanned from a real woman). It has a longer torso-to-legs ratio, less “round” thighs, thicker arms, and generally looks more realistic than the usual fantasy doll bodies. But, it still manages to retain TAYU’s classic look.
Conclusion
That wraps up a fairly short and photoset-filled week of sex doll news. There were lots of photos to look at, as well as many teasers and reveals. As doll photography gets better and better, it’s always important to remember that promo photos can be misleading. Photographers add a lot, including custom makeup, photo editing, and hiding flaws. For example, I noticed several of Sino Doll’s photos edited out the neckseam (which I avoided showing). One brand (Cosdoll/Yearndoll) even started using AI in one recent photoset.
In terms of trends, ball-jointed skeletons are definitely the next big skeletal upgrade. I assume more than just Zelex and WM are pursuing it. Also, many brands are probably working on the same robotic features that Irontech focused on for so long. In other news, big doll accounts, MLW and CubikoMandos, were both banned on Twitter again. Anyway, that’s all for this week. As always, stay tuned for more sex doll news!

Messed up photoshop on the 2nd photo of JY Doll?
I hope we’ll have doll heads with facial bones to change facial expressions or close the eyes and the option to choose between innie and outie vulvas in the future.
Hello!
Are their any drawbacks of equipping a Doll with a Ball-Jointed Skeleton instead of a regular one? I’m afraid it might take a while for WM to release this new Skeleton… do you think it’s worth waiting for?
PS: Some while ago Angel Kiss announced that they would be releasing new Models this year but it’s been quiet since… is this the calm before the storm? The 175 is too tall/slim and the 165 too heavy for my taste :S
Best regards,
Darren!
Hi Darren,
A ball-jointed skeleton is definitely a step-up from a regular one. It allows the neck, wrists, shoulders, waists, and maybe ankles (in the future) to rotate circularly like a real human body. Definitely an advancement in skeletal realism. (And of course, the elbows and knees will still be (double) jointed and not ball-jointed). I think the only drawbacks are potential durability issues due to how new and untested it is. Also, maybe the increased motions could stretch the material in ways it shouldn’t be stretched. Only time will tell.
Since Jinsan has really pushed toward silicone, I believe we’ll see a lot more from Angel Kiss in the future. It’s still early in the year. They’ll most likely release more heads and bodies, although they’re still behind on the silicone ROS heads, among other things.
WMs on a roll with the new body features! Like the 4.0 skeleton, and new hands. That Elsa Babe triple boob kinda scared me though not gonna lie lol! But I wonder what’s taking WM so long to show off that new 4.0 skeleton?
Hi Jackson,
WM Doll only teased the V4 skeleton 2 days ago. I’m guessing after Zelex released their EXP Skeleton, the pressure was on for WM to rush out their own. That reminds me.. WM’s new articulated hands were also ball-jointed so it foreshadowed what was to come. Hopefully, the V4 skeleton comes out soon and won’t be delayed for months like their hands were.
It looks like Tayu realeased a full photo-set of the 158 body with head #16 .
I haven’t seen the head #16 before so maybe it is new?

Hi Robert,
Thanks for the info. I only saw the standing photos, not the photoset. Yes, Head #16 is new. I will update the post right now.
