Came across this great toy while browsing for kungfu girl. It's product name is called Phicen, made in USA. Anyone knows how much it costs and which shop selling?

Hmm usually if just the body (plus head on some version) it's around RM 200. Sets might cost RM 300++. Can be found at XL-Shop and few other hobby shops (usually those that sells 1/6 action figures). Heads from various 1/6 action figure products usually can fit on the body.

This is one of the stuff you must not buy from JP-based retailers, as the price is more expensive than local shops.

Thanks Exiled_Gundam and @BeastX for your explanation.

Wow, didn't know china could come up with such great toy, read the web, it's made of silicone skin except for certain parts. Is it barbie for adults, She actually has the top and bottom thingy?

Japan actually has similar product for quite some time (google Tokyo Doll) but they are too expensive. Volks used to have similar product but already discontinued for a long time IINM (not to mention it uses thin steel wire for joints which prone to break easily).

I actually owned several Phicen doll bodies actually haha

Wooo....wahhh.... thx for great intro. I found live size 4woods doll while browsing tokyo doll. I think that's the most realistic doll ever that can piap one, can buy her clothes at sg wang clothing store straight. Wonder is it legal to bring in 4woods here.

Depending on how u declare it i guess, but definitely expensive to bring here (i think can buy motorcycle already with the money)

If gf or wife don't complain, no problem.

Based on local tax, think the 4woods would cost rm40k if 100% tax & excise duty. Walau! If no crazy tax, rm28~30k :'(

I`ve bought 1 phicen but 2013 older version small papayas mat salleh pale at discounted price after bargaining. Rm180 + clothing rm105 total reduced to rm270. Stated model plsfb02-05, any idea which model is this? Any idea how to mod her assets to be more realistic? Any special colour pen like gundam marker pink or brown colour can be used for papaya dots? Use penknife for the bottom front?

The newer series comes with steel skeleton, check their websites didn't mention series A, B or C belong to new series. New series no longer has separate hands and feets like Edation hot stuff seamless doll. Heard they are coming up with hsu chi head mold too. tongue.gif

Haha not sure which model is that. If colour marker pen you're looking at, I used the pink Real Touch Gundam Marker (I saw some people who mod static figurines using this marker). Never mod the bottom front before.

As for the head (and palm and leg part), they are compatible with parts from several other manufacturer; I think you can use head from Hottoys as well.

Actually your enquiries are better directed to this thread instead: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3138799 as Japanese Vinyl and Figures thread is for discussing static figurines mainly from Japan. Phicen although seamless like pvc figurines, they actually fall under action figures category, specifically 1/6 scale

That thread looks more like for serius army guys. This thread instead looks more suitable for more blue imaginative guys wanted more woohoo!

Checked with XL shop staff, said 3rd generation 2015 variants will be more like 1/6 miniature scale version of 4woods with more posing capabilities. The hands and feet are build in with skeletonn inside, no longer separate plastics. He said price will costs rm300 above, no need to mod her assets especially bottom front, got thing there already.

Wonder why no seamless male doll with birdie? I can get her a bf to have fun at least. Maybe then can but taowan hummer or back to the future delorean for them to go outing.

Actually NSFW is an acronym for Not Safe For Watch or No Sensor For Watch

That means safe for us adult fans anyway. Actually Nice, all of us here love nsfw that's why we're into anime goodies.
