ANT Flexible Female Seamless Body Review
More photos HERE.
I was recently prompted to look into this product by rollotomasi. They have not been listed in the New Product Announcements on the site and I could not find it, although it was noted elsewhere by Melancholic without the full details, and thus seemed familiar. I was curious enough to give them a try, and purchased two from different sellers on eBay, AB001S (“wheat skin” or "suntan") and AB004S (“copper suntan skin”). Skintone apart, the bodies are identical. The leaflet inside names the product “1/6 Super Flexible Realistic Seamless Asian Female Body,” and identifies the seamless "flesh" rather opaquely as a "full rubber coating," whatever that really means. It feels similar to TBLeague's TPE bodies.
Everything about the body suggests inspiration by TBLeague / Phicen. This starts with the style of packaging, even if it is more compact than TBLeague’s. There is no stand, but also no bikini or even silica packets. There is a little leaflet with suggestions on how to manipulate the body correctly.
The body sculpt is tallish (just under 29 cm with a head) and a combination of lean and curvaceous. The neck is a little on the short side. There is some basic detail to the molded nipples and “secret private part,” but that is not particularly explicit. The shoulders are a bit on the wide side and do not have as much potential for lowering/narrowing as TBLeague’s. They appear to have a full metal endoskeleton, as advertised (“stainless steel skeleton”) — certainly all the visible joints are metal. The swappable hands and feet are molded in harder plastic, although they are in fact quite soft, which makes it easier to make them hold various items, and also easier to swap.
The body is painted in an even skintone, without any specific coloring for any of its features. The harder plastic swappable hands and feet match well and are slightly sticky. The “wheat skin” of AB001S is very close to the recent TBLeague suntan, except perhaps ever so slightly richer/warmer in color. The “copper suntan skin” of AB004S is slightly more warm and reddish than the “wheat skin,” and a good match for my Hot Toys Angelina Jolie and Ming-Na Wen heads.
The range of articulation is impressive, although slightly less far-reaching than that of the TBLeague bodies at the knees or elbows. Something that struck me as unusual is that the legs could not extend very far sideways from the hips without bouncing back, although they could do the splits going forward and backward. The somewhat softer material of the feet seems to weaken the ankles, and the bodies lose balance even more easily than their TBLeague counterparts. I was able to mitigate this by inserting a couple small strips of fabric elastic band in the holes on the feet to tighten the grip on the ball joints going in.
There are no accessories, just spare/swappable parts. These include a total of three pairs of sculpted hands (relaxed, knife grip, and gun grip) and two pairs of feet (flat heels and high heels).
As mentioned, there is no outfit / clothing of any kind included in the set. The somewhat broad shoulders and ample hips can make tighter outfits difficult to put on.
I cannot yet speak as to the durability and the longevity of this new product, but I have not noticed any particular red flags so far. One of its major draws is the price — under $40 from what I have seen — as well as the warmer skintones (there are actually additional skintones I have not purchased). I would have preferred it to be a bit shorter, although that is pretty much my only and minor complaint so far. It is perhaps a viable lower cost alternative for a sixth scale seamless female body with stainless steel skeleton vis-a-vis TBLeague's products.
Where to buy? So far, it can sometimes be found for under $40 on eBay and for under $50 on Walmart of all places. Here are some links:
eBay AB001S wheat/suntan
eBay AB001W white/pale skin
eBay AB003S normal skin
eBay AB004S copper suntan
Walmart AB001S suntan
Walmart AB001W white/pale skin
As always, what do you think?
