After brands returned with a bang last week, things calmed down expectedly this time around. The roller coaster of doll news continues – but that doesn’t mean there weren’t sights to see. Through the tall grass of photosets, TAYU officially pre-launched their Nova 158C+ body, Gynoid announced their AP Series, and Sino Doll teased their latest anniversary. Without further ado, doll news marches on rain or shine, through thick and thin.

WM Doll

First up, WM Doll’s silicone Ultra-Light 168H Jasmine is back to serve you the Big Arch combo. A brighter, sunnier, and more modernized look for her.

SEDOLL

Reviving their SET series, SEDOLL released a new T111G torso, along with a closed-eyed version of Jenny. Another busty addition to the series, this sleeping beauty is thick and hefty at 23 kg (51 lbs) without the head.

Love Holes

Irontech Doll

Keeping their Oriental Series going, Irontech’s 158T Yui (A5) returned with a more natural and homely look. After her first photoset (as a maid) didn’t get much attention, these definitely say “wife material.”

Inspired by their recent Tyra (S55), they also brought back Penny (S33) for similar office shoots. They remain the brand for black dolls.

And last, they had new photos of their 153cm Miku (S14) with ROS Max. A very pink and bubbly set that, while isn’t my favorite, is definitely a new look for her.

Real Lady

Real Lady brought back their Hollywood series (which I didn’t know had a name before), featuring their 170cm Celeste (R4). They glamorized and pampered her up, with some interesting shots where the body seems slimmer, but I guess that’s just the camera angles.

Gynoid

Unexpectedly, Gynoid announced their latest AP Series, essentially a hyper-realistic makeover (new makeup + implanted hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes) for some heads like Mona and Elina. That explains the hyper-realistic-looking doll they teased before CNY. The Model 20 Deluxe 163E Mona (AP01) is first in line for the new makeover – from elegant model to girl-next-door. Now, she looks super gorgeous and a bit like Real Lady’s Lena to me.

In the infographics, they also casually threw in that the next Model 24 body is <160cm (and “launching soon”), which isn’t compatible with AP Series heads (only for >160cm).

TAYU

After Japanese vendors teased us for 2 months, TAYU finally pre-launched their NOVA 158C+ TPE body in the West. Same as before, there’s a pre-launch discount of $1799 until March 24 (exclusively on their website), and TDF members seem really hyped about it. I won’t show the 158C photosets I showed before (of Angel and Lexi), but the latest one features Susie (shown in Tan for the first time) from your favorite @Sillyconeman/crazedcat.

They also have a new set of NOVA 158C+ Lexi in a very Japanese theme. For some reason, there are only 7 photos, and no nude ones.

Sino Doll

For their 8th Anniversary, Sino Doll returned, and once again, compiled a bunch of goodies to release all at once. I feel like every time I mention them, they’re celebrating some kind of anniversary. This time, they launched their “Ultra Weight-Reduction 3.0” – an option of a new “Polyurethane Foaming Layer.” At least, they’re honest in their infographic where they highlighted WR 3.0’s cons like lower durability and less realistic-feeling (but lighter and cheaper), so it isn’t a full-on improvement; there are tradeoffs. They also upgraded their skeleton with more joints (more movement + more natural). And last, there will be new S146 & S153 bodies – guessing this will all come out next week or so.

XT Doll

XT Doll has new photos of their very first Fantasy Girlfriend, Ami. While this series seemed to fall short, this is probably my favorite head of the 3. There’s also more watermarks here than doll.

Firefly Diary

I missed these photos last week, but here’s Firefly Diary’s 160cm MAX Qiandao hanging the laundry. Looking super cute, her little apron dress turns this household chore into a mouth-watering spectacle.

They also had some bright and silvery photos of their 165cm MAX Linglong. A bit odd without much photos, but it’s a unique look.

Jarliet

Jarliet released 2 new heads, but I’ll just show one of them: Mina (ROS). They showed her in two styles, and I think the dark hair fits better.

Jiusheng

Ever since the crackdowns, Jiusheng has been deathly quiet, but a new photoset of their 149cm Mia just dropped (not in the West though). Supposedly, their 2 main representatives, Kitty and Emma, left the company, but they’re slowly getting back on track. I’m guessing their sub-brand (that starts with a M) may shut down.

Bezlya

A head that I like from Bezlya, Sakurai Ningning, returned as a cheeky French maid. However, I feel like she still hasn’t had a good photoset yet (oddly looked the best at an expo).

MD Doll

MD Doll released the head I showed last week, which they named Heather. I won’t show all the photos again; just a little reminder of her.

Dolls Castle

After releasing a short-stacked body last week, Dolls Castle’s back for Round 2 – but the latest one comes with something extra.. It wouldn’t be Dolls Castle without a shemale, transgender, or femboy penis addition, would it? For those who miss the weirdness of Dolls Castle, viewer discretion is advised (RIP people casually scrolling through the gallery). Kind of crazy that this 148cm doll weighs 41 kg (90.4 lbs).

Butterfly

Last but not least, Butterfly teased a new silicone 154cm body, which I’m pretty sure is just Tenbudou’s 154M body last week. It confirms their connection, which I assume most people already knew. In my opinion, Tenbudou’s Haduki looked much more interesting.

Conclusion

That wraps up a rather quiet week of sex doll news. On the roller coaster of news, it was down this week like the global markets. Still, there were some big things like Tayu’s NOVA 158C+ pre-launch (which has TDF hyped up), and Gynoid’s new AP Series. While the AP Series is more like a makeup & hair makeover, it helps bring the “expensive-yet-falling-behind” Gynoid back on track with other brands. Sino Doll also teased a bunch of new stuff coming soon, possibly next week. Otherwise, it was a pretty meh week that’ll hopefully pick up soon.. It’s time for the quiet brands to come back with a vengeance. Until next time!
