This is the gorgeous male counterpart to the Pullip doll, his name is Taeyang. He is a bit taller than Pullip at 14" and has soft, plushy hair which you can spike up in different ways with your fingers. The body is made of hard plastic and is fully pose-able, but one must be very careful when posing him. (A foot came off when I removed a boot, though it did just snap right back on. Also, some of his joints are creaky when you move them. Perhaps he needs a doll chiropractor?) I do suspect parts of him could be easily broken if not handled gently I don't really consider this a toy. Also, as the box states, there are small parts included, choking hazards, not for children under 3. Small levers in the back of the head let you control the eye movements. He comes with a shirt, jacket, pants with removable skirt/bum flap and straps, underwear, boots, neck collar (which I moved to his wrist as a bracelet), 2 studded belts, a stand, a mini H. Naoto tote bag, and an info card which is in Korean language. There is a tiny dye mark on his belly, probably from the underwear or pants. I believe the punk-inspired clothing is designed by H. Naoto very delightful and full of surprising details! He is a beautiful addition to my shelf, I love seeing him there when I walk by.
I'd like to thank my in-laws for this very generous gift!
