Japanese company Volks has been making Super Dollfie dolls for more than a decade. The ball-jointed doll-figures are designed to be fully customisable, with removable wigs, interchangeable appendages and resin parts that can even be sanded for reshaping.
One Super Dollfie fan has taken the concept of customisation to a whole new level by melding the cute doll parts with robot skeletons, which allows the dolls to dance, play violins, and take part in some awesome samurai-style katana swordplay.
Called Dancing Doll, this series of lifelike figurines has been developed and refined by hobbyist and YouTube user RozenZebet, who has been customising these dolls for almost a decade. His work has been displayed at a number of large “Doll Party” collectors’ events in Tokyo, and some amazing clips showing off the girls’ impressive range of skills have racked up thousands of views on YouTube.
