FS Series – Full Silicone Collection
The FS Series is Funwest’s flagship collection launched in 2024, built around refined realism and high-detail finishing. It highlights anatomical sculpting and surface texture accuracy, including realistic clavicle contours, visible skin textures, and natural abdominal creases that remain defined even when seated.
Breast detailing is a key highlight, with realistic nipples/areolas and visible veins. The series also includes gel-filled breasts as a default option, enhancing softness and natural movement.
Feet are designed with pronounced veins and natural proportions. Available options include regular feet, hard feet, and standing feet with bolts (default).
Body Makeup
Body makeup is hand-applied, including fine painted veins to increase depth and realism—done with careful, detailed finishing.
Movable Eyelids – Adjustable Eye Expression
The Movable Eyelid option allows dolls to open and close their eyes, enabling more expressive facial looks. Eye expression can be adjusted manually by changing the eyelid joints.
Compatibility
- TPE: available on selected TPE models
- Silicone: available on all silicone dolls
Movable Jaw (ROS – Realistic Oral Structure)
The ROS movable jaw feature allows the mouth to open and close, improving interactivity and realism. The internal structure is described with lifelike elements such as a jawbone, tongue, teeth, and detailed inner walls.
Oral Heating – Warmed Oral Cavity (Silicone Series Option)
Oral Heating is a purchasable option for Funwest’s full silicone series. After connecting the cable and heating for a short period, the oral cavity reaches approximately 37–40°C. A thermometer can be used to confirm the desired temperature.
Safety notes include not leaving the device unattended and avoiding prolonged heating. The oral cavity is described as premium silicone.
Soft Checks – Enhanced Facial Feel (Silicone Hard Heads)
Soft Checks is a silicone-specific feature aimed at improving facial realism during touch/pressure. It’s positioned as more natural than conventional face fillers that may feel hollow or collapse under pressure, adding more realistic firmness/resistance.
Hand Options – Choosing the Right Level of Articulation
Funwest offers several hand configurations, each designed to balance realism, flexibility, and budget. Below is a clear overview to help you choose the option that best fits your needs.
– The Budget-Friendly Choice –
How it works:
Flexible wires run inside each finger, allowing basic manual positioning.
Flexibility:
Fingers can be bent into different angles for simple poses.
Limitation:
The wrist remains fixed, which can limit the overall natural flow of the hand pose.
– A Step Up in Flexibility –
How it works:
An upgraded version of normal fingers with an added wrist joint.
Flexibility:
Fingers remain bendable, and the wrist can move forward and backward, creating more natural hand positioning.
Limitation:
Finger movement is still based on simple bending rather than segmented joints.
– The Start of True Realism –
How it works:
Designed to mimic the structure of a human hand, with segmented joints for each finger.
Flexibility:
Allows more realistic, jointed bending instead of a single curved shape, resulting in more natural-looking poses.
Limitation:
Backward finger bending and thumb movement are more limited compared to the premium option.
How it works:
An advanced evolution of articulated fingers with enhanced joint engineering.
Flexibility:
Combines segmented finger joints with ultra-realistic backward bending and improved thumb articulation.
Key advantage:
Makes complex poses—such as a natural fist, OK sign, or thumbs-up—stable, easy, and highly realistic. This is the highest level of hand realism available.
Wired Toes – Poseable Toes (Silicone Only)
Wired Toes is a silicone-only option that allows each toe to be individually posed via an internal flexible structure. It’s designed to:
- improve close-up realism (curl/spread/extend toes naturally)
- expand posing variety for photography and display
- add mild stability on softer surfaces (bolts still best for upright standing)
- provide more convincing tactile resistance
Articulated Toes
Articulated Toes are designed for collectors who want realistic movement, not just bendable toes. Unlike fixed toes or traditional wire toes, each toe features a multi-jointed internal structure, allowing it to flex in segments instead of bending as a single piece. This creates smoother, more natural curves, realistic skin creasing, and poses that look anatomically correct.
In real use, this means better tip-toe poses, relaxed and natural foot positions, and noticeably improved results in photography and video. It’s a detail that may seem small at first, but it makes a clear difference where realism usually breaks down.
Articulated Toes are a premium upgrade focused on realism, precision, and long-term pose quality rather than simple flexibility. With proper care and gentle posing, they significantly enhance both display and creative posing possibilities.
Gel Butt Option – Enhanced Hip Softness (Silicone Only)
The Gel Butt option uses ultra-soft gel material to enhance hip softness and tactile realism. It’s presented as:
- softer, smoother touch
- balanced elasticity for more natural response to touch/movement
- fuller/plusher look compared to standard build
Care note: avoid prolonged sitting for best shape retention.
STPE Series –Material Upgrade for Performance & Realism
The STPE upgrade is positioned as a performance step-up with:
- Improved oil control
- Better tear resistance
- More realistic feel
- Stronger preservation of skin texture detail and visible vessels (similar to silicone-level detail retention)
Because of improved oil control, STPE is presented as better suited for realistic body makeup and longer-term durability compared to standard TPE.
