Disturbing Japanese dolls



All manner of dolls (and outfits to dress them in) seem to be popular in Japan, but these ones seem a little freaky. They seem to be a more humanised version of the robot design in the film iRobot (Will Smith).

Even worse is the ability to swap some “parts” to show a slightly different mood…

    These are BJD ball-jointed dolls they are fairly popular and only the U-noa version of the artist from Alchemic laboratory the special erect part. They also have a ”O” face for the girls. Most of the collectors were also surprise by that initiative. They are made with genital so that they look more realistic with clothes on or not.

    its disturbing and not very realistic.

    i can’t imagine these are popular.

    Sorry to burst your bubble, but BJD:s have been a quite popular hobby for many years (a decade at least) – mainly in Asia, but it has sneaked its way into other parts of the world too (for English reference see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball-jointed_doll & http://www.denofangels.com/forums/index.php).

    Though I must admit I find the Unoa boy’s exchangeable man parts a bit creepy myself and I hear many people find their near-life likeness (at least some moulds) to be quite scary (what is it with people and doll-phobia?).
