As Sandro says, the JY now is a very different doll and the similarities of the new TPE skeleton hinge functions with DS had led new to surmise in this direction. The new JY head connector is similar to DS but compatible with the old M16 heads. JY quality control still needs attention as the hinged neck doll I have needs tighter hinges in the neck. With luck their experience will develop with this.

Yes - I assume you refer to me. For the avoidance of doubt I will not enthuse about a doll that's not worthy of enthusiasm. If I enthuse about a doll it's because I know that it will give pleasure to people. Even if a manufacturer sends me a doll free, if it's rubbish I will not enthuse and I'm very open about faults - unless it's a matter that I know the manufacturer has attended to and corrected already.
I became interested in JY because I could see them coming forward as a quality doll. Their 2016 doll was lovely but their TPE blocked together under stress and could split unless unstressed gently and in warm enough temperature.
In May this year they sent to me a 168 and this is gorgeous. Excellent TPE but the ankle joint hinges were not tight enough for her to stand by herself. I made suggestions as to possible improvement with their insert design, although as it is it's good.
In August they sent me a 148.
She's too small for me to consider as adult but
very beautiful and
especially photogenic.
JY did not send this doll to me in any way to cause me, to bribe me, to be nice about them but because I have seen and recognised a steady effort and improvement which I can see is leading forward to better quality, and causing other manufacturers to develop their products to compete and for me to photograph. I hope that my photos will have done their doll justice.
Sandro is to be encouraged and congratulated for bringing appreciation of JY forward and it's notable that I'm not the only enthusiast of good dolls to be giving JY consideration.
It's appropriate to add that I don't use photoshop techniques in my photography other than in adjusting exposure coming out of the camera. Recently I've found many of my best exposed shots to come out of my mobile phone.
Best wishes
