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.

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!
