Unbelievable! They are just true communists twenty years ago!

Capitalism makes everything come true!

Next step maybe they will manufacture cheap android dolls in the future

chen, they're most likely seamless poseable mannequins.

It's a step up, but it's highly unlikely they'll advance further down that path. The one thing they've never been good at is copying finer details.

I had uploaded the image(got from Taiwan Y auction, not mine). It seems really alike realdoll, right?

Maybe not as good as a "real" realdoll, but also not so bad.

BTW, the price is 38000 NTD, just about $1100.

It's woman-shaped that much is true, but I'd rather the creator of the first fembot try to get it mostly right on the first release. The joint bends on the doll are atrocious. People's elbows do not bend like garden piping.

My budget would barely cover it, but I'd rather wait until I've saved enough for the genuine article or one of its Japanese equivalents. I'm being forced to too - my current home is a rental and lacks a lot of privacy in that the landlord can visit at least twice a year with access to all areas, and I can't find a hidden spot.
