Dollfie is a brand of vinyl doll created by the Japanese company Volks in 1997. It is a highly poseable hybrid of fashion doll and action figure. A Dollfie doll is about the size of a Barbie doll, 1/6 or playscale, though there are variants in different heights ranging from 23–29 cm (9-11 inches). Dollfie dolls generally come blank, i.e., their heads are not painted. When an artist paints a Dollfie, the technique is referred to as a "face-up" or "make-up". Dollfie dolls are much more flexible than typical Barbie-style western fashion dolls of the same size, because of the much larger number of joints in the body. Dollfie are often confused with Super Dollfie, a larger 1/3 scale 60 cm (24 inches) range of resin dolls, also made by Volks, or even similar larger Asian ball-jointed dolls from other companies. The brand name ''Dollfie'' should accurately only be used for Volks's line of 1/6 dolls though. Volks Inc. originally manufactured dolls with doll-crafters and artists in mind. For those with less skill, doll-crafting short-cuts were introduced, such as pre-rooted hair and stick-on eye decals. Later, finished dolls were issued. There are various body types, male and female, with several forms and skin tones for both as well as a line of child-sized dolls. The company also makes tools and materials to customize and maintain dolls. ''Dollfie Dream'' is a line of 60 cm soft-bodied vinyl dolls made by Volks, similar to the smaller Dollfie dolls. == See also == * Asian fashion doll * 1:6 scale modeling 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dollfie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
