1/6 scale vinyl TinyFox Dolls!

Yes, I think I might be out of luck. 😥 A second seller told me they didn't have her in stock either. I asked two others but I don't have high hopes. It's OK though, maybe there will be a restock or a new girl will come out that I will adore.

I don't have many options either, being in Europe. It's basically only Aliexpress or Kikagoods for me. I'll keep an eye on there as well.

I'll keep you posted. Thanks for the support everyone!

As a fellow European I recommend buying Tinyfox through newcloversinging. They are cheaper than Kikagoods and more trustworthy than aliexpress shops. You also get free shipping. 

Her homepages (she has a old and new one) aren't good but you can just write her an email to order. 

NewCloverSinging is pretty highly trusted (you can Google about the shop), it just really doesn't look like it for newbies xD

Thank you all for the info and the help. I suspected it was as you say.

I guess I'll have to wait for a restock or a brand new doll that I fall in love with. I'm sure it'll happen.

Thank you for recommending NewCloverSinging for Europe! I'll be sure to check the site.

Ya I’ve been searching for Asmoti & she is sold out. TF got limited quantity of dolls.

I would also like to vouch for NCS. Christina is wonderful and extremely helpful, she usually responds within a day on weekdays in Beijing's time zone. If you don't see an item posted on the website, email her and ask if getting the item is possible, and this includes adding extra things like hands, bonus items, etc.

She has helped me get several custom, fullset, and nude dolls; shes done me a couple favors in asking GEM to modify the faceup in a couple of the fullsets I ordered. I have been purchasing TF and resin dolls through her for over 3 years.

I've seen TF more and more commonly on second hand markets these days.

Dollyteria: search both "tiny fox" and "tinyfox"

• https://www.dollyteria.com/product-list?keyword=tiny+fox&Submit=search
• https://www.dollyteria.com/product-list?keyword=tinyfox&Submit=search

Mandarake: same thing, search both "tiny fox" and "tinyfox" or add "bjd" or "doll" too

• https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/listPage/list?keyword=tiny fox&lang=en
• https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/listPage/list?keyword=tinyfox&lang=en

Both sites are very reliable in their descriptions in the state of the second-hand items. A "B" grade on Dollyteria is very common, the items are basically fine and if there are any issues, they will be listed in the description, just translate the page. I don't think I've ever seen an "A" grade honestly haha~

I've been using Manadarake for figures, merch, and eventually dolls for over 5 years. I've ordered from Dollyteria twice, for some Dollfie heads and clothing.

It's very possible Asmoti could show up.

Also, I'm not sure if either of you checked with MyDollection. I haven't purchased from them personaly: https://www.mydollection.com/product-page/tinyfox-asmoti-full-set-chubby-1-6-mjd-dolls-only

I can speak for the following shops:

• NCS (my favorite)
• Anubis (my close second favorite)
• Janes (not a fan paying USD and even though I'm in Canada its more expensive to ship from her)
• TinyFox international shop (would not recommend, insanely expensive shipping, like it's a crime)
• SpreeNow (proxy purchasing through TF's TaoBao shop, they're fine, not the cheapest shipping)

I don't recommend MyDollection. They have a bit of a shady reputation for not fulfilling preorders properly. While I was able to get an artist head shipped from them, I believe it was a fluke due to the head being in stock.

I thought I remembered reading this somewhere on the forum here or DoA, thank you for confirming. Sorry to hear about your bad experience.

I mostly knew of this from other people on DoA and r/BJD. My experience wasn't that bad.

 

P.S. If you want an alternative, LegendDoll is more reputable (I used them before with Freminet) and I did get the order fulfilled as a preorder.

Oh, yes! I've used them too, but only for resin. I always forget they carry TF and Imomo. Their selection is hard to beat, they often have a much larger inventory than other sites, and will often have dolls that recently sold out or closed for orders.

I like them as well, my only comments is they can be a bit pricier and I have paid for shipping a couple times. However they often have free shipping events.

Thank you so much for this comprehensive reply, @Veravey! I really appreciate it. I have browsed Mandarake in the past, but never ordered. I will keep an eye on those sites just in case. I will also check LegendDoll.

Thank you for the warning and for suggesting LegendDoll, @RozenGermain! I will check them as well.

Since it seems like Asmoti is a no go for now, I'm considering Cherrie... She might also fit the idea I had for my trickster character, and she already has red hair, so that's a plus, haha. I'm unsure for now though. I really like that mischievous expression on Asmoti. Cherrie's expression is more straightforward (and happier, which is also good in its own way).

I also considered Poison, but her expression is less subtle than I was hoping for, haha.

Cherrie is definitely a cutie! Though if you have a specific hairstyle in mind I recommend getting a red wig separately anyway. Though that could just be me not liking the hairstyle of Cherrie's wig. Though I am still big on demon girls!

Thank you, @RozenGermain! I do like the hair style Cherrie has, but it's definitely a good idea to get a different wig for a change of pace.

So, I ended up ordering Poison! That's a big step out of my doll comfort zone, as I usually like kind, gentle smiling girls, but I'm excited. I mean, she's happy and smiling as well, just like a cute predator that has just seen a tasty prey, haha. She definitely will be a new character, not the trickster one I had in mind though. I think only Asmoti's smile can fit that bill.

I like how she has dark black hair, too, that will be a novelty for my collection! I'm aware that she's on pre-order and won't ship until after my birthday, but that's OK. I'll just wait for her and I'll keep an eye out for an Asmoti restock or for her to appear for sale second-hand.

Welcome to the Poison Wait Club, there's a few of us! I hope you enjoy your stay!

What are we thinking? 1st of November drop for Poison, or 30th of November?

Well, La Peonier just announced yesterday that the cat girls, which were supposed to come out this month, are delayed to November, so I wouldn’t be surprised if Poison is also delayed by a month or two.

Oh no!!
Could that maybe be because they're seeking to release the kitties at the same time and they have a lot more intricate parts?

 

Not that I'm not used to production delays, but still makes me sad.

The notice just said there were factory delays and that they were have trouble sourcing the necessary parts, but I think it’s entirely possible that the intricate outfits and accessories are the main problem.

They also said during the preorder period that they might have trouble sourcing materials for the black cat’s wig if there were too many preorders, and that they would change it to mohair if that was the case.

The cats seemed to be TinyFox’s big breakthrough into the Japanese market, so they probably got way more preorders than expected. Idk if that will have an effect on later releases, but I’m expecting it to.

@Ayrell have you looked at Ashley? I think she has a subtle mischievous look as well. She’s more readily available on Ali. 

Speaking of Ashley, I just got one secondhand! My first Tinyfox!! I think she has that coating people have mentioned some dolls having, she's really soft to the touch. She has some bad staining on her feet and mild staining on her legs from her socks, but I'm hoping to stain treat the problem areas and I'm waiting on her bodysuit now! I named her Sariel Trini

Unless you know of a method we don’t, don’t do it. Traditional stain treatment will destroy the soft touch coating. Unfortunately, once the older TinyFoxes are stained, they can’t be fixed. You’ll have to buy a new body if it really bothers you.

@bbqweasel, thank you so much for the suggestion! I did consider Ashley as she has a similar smile to Asmoti, but the rest of her face-up didn't convince me. She's definitely an option if worse comes to worse though.

@PlasticJester, huge congratulations on Sariel Trini's arrival! Pictures please? 😄

I saw that LaPeonier posted this tweet. Are those new girls on the second photo? They both look very cute! Adorable expressions.

Yes, LaPeonier is at Wonder Festival Shanghai today and tomorrow. They teased these two girls and suggested there would be more announcements to come. I can foresee the blue one joining my doll family… 😰

So cuuuuute! I continue to thank the doll gods that TF has remained focused on 1/6, my wallet and I express immense gratitude~  (* ´▽`)b

In 1/4 news however, Fluffy, Fillion, and Konid are all on their way home as of last week! They all coincidentally seemed to ship around the same time despite coming from 3 seperate proxies. I would love to start their projects right away but unfortunately likely can't until the new year due to life events.

With their arrival, I have officially collected at least 1 version of ever 1/4 sculpt!~  (ﾉ´ヮ`)ﾉ*: ･ﾟ

Cute! It looks like it says the red one is an octopus chef (although the ears on her hat remind me of sea slugs!)

I can't figure out what the blue girl is supposed to be though, besides maybe some type of (probably aquatic) bird? Her hair is so long and pretty though and I love her outfit!

I am sad that Poison isn't out on the table with the others.

Justice for Poison!! ✊
