Can you make (or buy) 25cm males? (around that size)

[~TurkishDelight~]

Is there any way to make a 25cm male? Or is there anyone that sells them?
I need a male doll that's smaller that New-EB-C (28.5cm), but taller than EB-Mini F (22cm).

Alas, not yet. I know I've been pining for a more teenager sized boy body since the 25cm girl obitsu came out.
Meanwhile I've been using the "basic" (ie: jointed wrist) Jackson Jekyll Monster High body (matches normal skin obitsu heads) for my male dolls that are supposed to be teenaged, since although it's the same size as the old-style slim male obitsu (which is about the same height as ye olde 27cm lady 'bitsu) it's sculpted nicer and looks more youthful. And next to a Neo-Goh or a new-style Slim Male, the JJ MH body looks a lot smaller.

Thanks for the tip! Hmm, Jackson Jekyll from Monster High. Anyone have pics to compare a MH guy to dolls I have? I currently have:

Neo-EB-Goh
EB-Mini F
New EB-C
New EB-N

Or a picture by a Barbie would be okay too. I don't have any Monster High dolls, so I'd love to see the body, it could be what I need for my character. He's a pretty small and scrawny teen.

And I'm wondering now, do the Monster High boys match any other 1:6 head skin colors of Volks or Obitsu?

Here's my NDR/MH hybrid next to one of my Gohs:

I just remembered I have an EB-N as well. Give me a minute and I'll take a shot of the three of them together. And let me know if there're any other comparisons you'd like to see. It's too dark for skin tone comparisons right now, but maybe tomorrow.

As for skin colors that match MH, so far there are only three MH boys that have "normal" skin colors (ie: not blue or purple)...
-Jackson Jekyll will match Obitsu/Volks 'normal' (as I said previously) as well as NDR 'pale' (though NDR heads are somewhat rare now-a-days) The Gloom Beach version of Jackson does not have jointed wrists.
-Deuce Gorgon is a darker, peachier caucasian color that I didn't think had any matches, but I just held my "guy" colored Goh head up to his chest and it looks like that could be a close match. The downside is I don't think Mattel has released a jointed-wrists Deuce yet, which is a huge turn off for me. Hopefully soon, though?
-Clawd Wolf I don't have, but he looks to be much darker than Obitsu's Maroone or Coconut skin colors. He seems more "Generic Mattel AA" colored, which is definitely good news for a bunch of characters I want to make, though that means dying or thoroughly blushing a head to match. So far only the "Sweet 1600" version of Clawd has jointed wrists.

Okay, here are a couple more:

Goh, EB-N, MH


Goh, MH, EB-N

Obitsu SERIOUSLY needs to fill the gaps. The chances that Volks will bring back the EBs is getting slimmer and slimmer NOBODY really makes anything like the EB-C or N any more. Obitsu would be the only game in town and they need to seize that.

[Pandor]

TRUTH. They need to make Maroone a standard color, too. (And make it darker while they're at it.)

Jackson head on a "natural tone" Neo Goh. The default neck peg will not hold the head on, so you'll need to rig it some other way. I used epoxy putty to wad around the existing peg.

TRUTH. They need to make Maroone a standard color, too. (And make it darker while they're at it.)

The Coconut color seems to be darker. Maybe that one?

One site said they no longer made them because tan skin was out of fashion with the Japanese It's a shame. It would be nice if even the 27cm hard bust body was available in that color as a regular thing. Having all bodies available at all times would be awsome but even if they were to have just had a single style in each size that would be a major boost.

Thank you, all these pics and info are really helpful. I still wish someone would make a 25cm, though. There seems to be a demand for one. And other skin tones, too. I wish they'd realize that not all of their customers are in Japan, and want different things. Diversity is good.

Does anyone have a pic of the MH guy body without clothes?
