a mini guide to mini dolls

i'm making this because i love smaller dolls (between 4-7" tall) and i wish there were more options that aren't toddlers/children😔 if anyone knows of a doll line i've missed, please let me know!!

MGA Dream Ella Extra Iconic Mini doll

articulation including elbows and knees

more realistic adult proportions

brushable hair

6" tall

available on Amazon (but discontinued I think)

only 3 doll models were made

Barbie Extra Mini doll

articulation including elbows and knees

big, rounded head compared to body

brushable hair

5.5" tall

available at retailers

Magic Mixies Pixlings doll

articulation of arms and legs but only elbows, not knees

big, rounded head

molded-on clothing and supernatural features like wings, ears, horns, fins, etc.

6-6.5" tall

available at retailers

My Little Pony Equestria Girls Mini dolls

articulation including elbows and knees

Big head, but balanced out with big feet

Molded-on plastic hair, clothes, shoes, and horse ears

4.5-5" tall

discontinued, have to buy second-hand and can be expensive

Disney Store 5.5" Mini dolls

only basic articulation: head, legs, arms.

Proportions are realistic, close to a 12" doll like Barbie or MH

Brushable hair (although male dolls have molded hair)

5.5" tall

discontinued, obscure, and can be expensive second-hand

Winner's Stable playset dolls

articulation of knees but not elbows

budget dolls (not the best quality)

brushable hair

5" tall

discontinued but affordable second-hand

Breyer Freedom Series 1:12 scale dolls

I'm pretty sure they're articulated to the elbows and knees?

proportions similar to Barbie or MH

brushable hair

hands in reins-holding pose lol

6" tall

available but overpriced imo

Kuu Kuu Harajuku Mini doll

only basic articulation at arms and legs

oversized head and feet

molded-on hair

4-4.5" tall

discontinued but available second-hand, not too expensive

Capsule Chix

LOTS of articulation, including even hands and feet

All joints pop easily on and off

fairly realistic proportions

body has molded-on details to look like a robot

some have molded-on clothes, all have molded plastic hair

4.5-5" tall

available at retailers or second-hand, although a bit overpriced imo

Enchantimals 6" dolls

only basic arm and leg articulation

brushable hair

huge head with slim body

molded-on animal features like ears or horns

6" tall

pretty easy to find on Amazon or second-hand, affordable

Sonic Prime Action Figures

according to the box, 13 points of articulation

(obviously) molded to look like the Sonic the Hedgehog characters

lots of molded and painted details

5" tall

available at retailers, usually around $15 each

I'm including these even though they're action figures because if someone wanted to swap the heads, I think the bodies would be a fun and unique choice for a custom doll

there are actually lots of interesting articulated action figures that have customization potential!

Meyko... this is the 7th week in a row you've redesigned HJ5!!

Anyways, here are the previous versions~

[boricuacherry-blog]

Fun fact: Gwen Stefani executive-produced a Nickelodeon kids show called Kuu Kuu Harajuku that first aired in 2016. It based itself on her Harajuku Lovers brand and followed a group of teenage girls who live in a fantasy version of Tokyo and create a girl group. Gwen has a history with animation, since her brother, Eric Stefani, worked on the Ren & Stimpy Show and The Simpsons.

Very, VERY early WIP of my first doll repaint in a couple years. Her base is a Kuu Kuu Harajuku Music doll, and I'm obsessed with the squat head and big ol eye molds 💖💖

I would have kiiiiilled to have a character of mine added into Kuu Kuu Harajuku. Even if I’m a colossal nobody. Gwen Stefani please bring back like. Everything from your Harajuku lovers brand…there’s nothing I can do about it and it’s making me sick to the very bone. So far….I have the classic Music perfume, and a sunshine cutie Lil angel is on her way to my doorstep atm 🥹 I took the pleasure of watching a katie puckrik review for her and I hope she holds up to the standards implanted into my skull 🫶

Before & after 💕

Finally found some clothes to fit her! Thank you to whoever it was who recommended these clothes! (My memory sucks and I can't find the chat about it I'm sorry 😭)

Now I need to get some ribbons for her hair 🥰
