A suitable body for Catwoman?

Postby DollyKim » Fri Jun 03, 2011 7:31 am

Long story short WantedActionFigure.com tempted me with a BOGO code which ended up becoming john Lennon and Julie Newmar as Catwoman. While I have a suitable body for him I'm looking for suggestions for her. I do have an Obitsu soft bust but I feel she's a bit top heavy.

Short of buying another 100 Poses barbie is there a female body, not Obitsu or Volks, I'm not thinking about? It will need a neck with a peg, or one I can put a peg in, and a classic pin up figure. The legs can be click knee as long as she can kick.

I looked up the Julie head and I´m not sure if you care more for the look or posability but I thought of Triadtoys base bodies: http://www.triadtoys.com/Brands/Figure+ ... Bodies.htm
Of course finding a body like the one of Julie is hard her waist and hips especialy :)
The other solution I see is finding posable fashion doll body but I´m not sure where to get base bodies like that. I´ll take a look around.
I hope you find the right body for this beauty :)

The Triad girls look a bit more athletic and "tough" than what I want for her, definitely needs more legs.

Will look in to that, it's a great price, just wish she had a bit more junk in her trunk.

Hmm I just figured that Pullip bodies have a quite skiny waist making their hips look larger. I´m just not sure about the propportions, but in the looks it´s close to Julie Newmars figure.

Pullips look a bit childish to me. I want one for something else but not her.

The thing with ZC girls, and the BBI and Triad girls, is they're too "muscular". They'd make a good modern ass kicking Catwoman but not a classic Catwoman. Julie Newmar is built like a Barbie doll, just do an image search, so I'm searching for bodies I might not have thought of.

Anyone have a 13" lady doll they could compare to some 1/6, I wouldn't mind if she were on the tall side.

To update I snagged a headless Fashion Royalty bod for her. I like the idea of it being on the taller side and it gives me a brand I don't have yet for my site.
