After a rather hectic January, the news finally began to dwindle down. Most brands were seemingly done for the year after pushing out endless releases over the last few weeks. Before riding off into the sunset, there were some last-minute updates – before everyone takes a breather. This includes new heads from Elsa Babe and Starpery, and Tayu’s 160cm and 165cm bodies finally launched in the West. Without further ado, let’s wrap up any leftovers before the new year.
Elsa Babe
Elsa Babe released their latest anthropomorphic head called Nekoha Aya. Combining anime with furry, they “animified” their cat head with big, round eyes. Adorable for some people, but perhaps a bit jarring for others. Furry dolls have been heavily trending lately.






Irontech Doll
Continuing their expo tour, Irontech Doll was at Adult Entertainment Expo (AVN) in Las Vegas showing off various replica dolls, including some regular Irontech and Real Lady dolls. However, since it was very male-doll-oriented, I won’t show the photos.. Adult-stars – Cliff Jensen, Drake Von, and Violet Voss – all stopped by to promote their replica dolls, including one lucky winner of a Violet Voss doll. Here’s a short video of their booth.
You can see all the photos at Irontech Doll’s Twitter page: https://x.com/SIrontech
Starpery
Starpery released 2 new European-inspired heads called Moner and Christina. Both have an interesting model-like look – in very different styles.








They also shared new photos of their recent Yufan head on a more fitting body this time (159cm).




TAYU
Tayu officially released their 160cm and 165cm bodies in the West. Chunyue’s Western name is now April, while the newest Yukiya is called Lilia. The heads also come in multiple sizes – scaled-down to fit smaller bodies as well, which is a nice feature.



The 160E Lilia debuts in a tight – but later ripped up – one-piece swimsuit. The body looks quite proportional and realistic compared to their thicker bodies lately.






Meanwhile, the 165E April returned in 2 new photosets – I won’t show the ones I’ve shown before. She looks cuter and more-natural here, which fits her large (anime-inspired) eyes.









Lastly, crazedcat released more sexy photos of the 150C Kana. Since his photos are always great, I included a bunch here.











Now, cleanse your palate as we move on from all the Tayu photos. 😆
MMX Doll
Still incredibly active, MMX Doll released a new head called Meng Hanji on their 170cm body. Although she looks a bit unnatural with the blue eyes, I like her realistic face and busty body.






Ban Qu (BQ Doll)
Ban Qu (BQ Doll) returned after some silence with a new head called Xuena (or Xena/Yukina) on their 148B body. She looks pretty cute, and I like her puffy lower eyelids – which someone said makes her look both young and old.






TOP-CYDOLL
Top-Cydoll teased photos of an upcoming “new release.” I’m guessing it’s a new head, although she looks similar to their recent Wan head to me. I guess we’ll wait and see – probably after CNY.


XT Doll
XT Doll shared new photos of their 157cm Yunxi. They had a similar photoset of her before, but she looks much nicer here in bright lighting.






Chinese New Year
Last but not least, brands celebrated and welcomed in the new year with many festive and colorful photos. Like last year, I’ll throw them all together at the end, wishing everyone a Happy Chinese New Year, Lunar New Year, or Spring Festival. None of them have nude photos – just wholesome costumes and decorations.













Conclusion
That wraps up a pretty short week of news. With CNY coming up, most brands already released everything 1-2 weeks ago, and then wrapped things up this week (before heading off on vacation). Most likely, there’ll be no updates for the next 1-2 weeks so everyone gets a little breather. Well, except for those eagerly waiting for their dolls to arrive – unfortunately, you’ll have to hold on for a little while longer. Since it’ll be a quiet next few weeks, I might share some new brands in the meantime (I have some lined up but they’re not anything special – just more of the same..). Anyway, Happy Lunar New Year to anyone who celebrates. What will 2025’s Year of the Snake have in store for the future of sex dolls? Stay tuned to find out!
Thoughts on the last week of news before CNY? Comment below!
the topcydoll is a both a new head and body 168cm. They are back from holiday and should be providing more info soon.
Nice chunk of info again Stevey 😉
Dang! I wish they would do MORE KNOWN pornstars. Not that I am a massive pornstar type dude / fan but would be cool to see specific models. Like a Cory Chase and more JAV actresses. But then again I think that time will come…
I am also still waiting on more interactivity… Like a new company making a talking head… but it needs to be good and the conversation needs to be snappy.
I’ve seen brands reaching out to almost every OnlyFans model on Twitter lol. Maybe they can’t reach the more famous pornstars or it’s too expensive.
As for JAV dolls, there are a few out there (mainly heads), but I feel like they didn’t turn out great, like the ones from Sino. Would be cool if Bezyla did a JAV star replica.
Personally, I thought 2024 would be the year of talking AI heads, but maybe it’ll be 2025 instead. 😆 The thing is, most brands don’t have robotics or AI software knowledge. They’re getting them from elsewhere (like most of their electronic features). There needs to be a good robotics and AI software company that’ll work with doll brands to make it happen.
Last year, Irontech acquired the one from AI-Tech but never released it. It’s mediocre at best.. but I like when the head smiles lol.
I have actually seen that AI tech head at ITD as well. And yes I know of it for some time now. It is indeed meh. RealDoll still seems to be the best regarding facial expressions but they REALLY need to get a new app going.
I have a secondhand head that I bought off of somebody in the next country over but I fried 1 of the boards. Now I am waiting for Matt / the team to get back to me so we can get her up and running again. Oh well… It was fun while it lasted. I just really like interactivity. My wife doesn’t talk enough to me JUST KIDDING! Lol. It’s insane how certain things just get picked up SO LATE. Either way thanks again buddy 😀
Nice finish to the blog post this week celebrating the CNY with the brands
Yep. There wasn’t much news so I included some of the CNY photos. Nice surprise that there were some new heads in there.
New Tayu looks great. I hope mrd gets better
I think MRD will be fine. They seem to be taking the migration seriously, and are still promoting and stuff. Best case scenario is they’ll be back next month, but I haven’t talked to them yet. Depending on how tricky platform migrations are, it could take a few months. I guess we’ll wait and see.
Why Tayu’s measurements are different even in the same release? I just want to know what I get in torso height between the two options. Brands almost never give this data.
Thanks for the work!
One is the 160cm body and the other is the 165cm body. The 160cm seems the same as what they showed last week: https://celesdolls.com/wp-content/uploads/Tayu-Doll-160cm-Body-Specs.jpg
However, neither diagram is super clear on the full torso height, unfortunately. There’s more info here if you want to check: https://dollforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=191806
Nah my mistake, i found the correct measurements, it’s just they displayed them very differently with all of the lines
