TAYU’s Latest Innovations
September 2026: The New Generation of TAYU NOVA
The new generation of TAYU NOVA pushes our original concept further with three major 2026 upgrades: Weight Reduction Technology, NOVA Breast 2.0, and Ultra Realistic Body Painting.
Everything has been developed around one goal: making NOVA lighter, softer, more realistic, and better to use.
NOVA Weight Reduction Technology
Weight has always been one of the biggest challenges with realistic dolls. Our new Weight Reduction Technology makes NOVA easier to lift, move, reposition, clean, and store while preserving the softness and curves that define the series.
For the NOVA 153E, total body weight has been reduced from 41 kg / 90 lb to just 25 kg / 55 lb, a 40% reduction.
NOVA 153E Weight Comparison
See the actual weight difference between the Standard and Weight Reduction versions of the NOVA 153E.
Softness Comparison
Reducing weight does not mean giving up softness. The breasts, pubic area, and buttocks maintain the same softness, while other body areas remain very close in feel.
40% less weight on NOVA 153E. Same softness where it matters. Easier handling in real use.
For other NOVA models, please consult the Weight Reduction comparison table for the latest figures.
NOVA Breast 2.0
The new generation introduces NOVA Breast 2.0, a new 3-layer breast construction developed to combine extreme softness with better shape retention.
The upgraded structure includes an inner biomimetic gel layer designed to better contain the filling, reduce the risk of shrinkage, and help the breasts maintain their full, natural shape over time.
The result is a breast that remains soft, full, responsive, and naturally mobile, while improving structural stability compared with the previous construction.
Soft in Use. Better Shape Retention Over Time.
For 2026, NOVA Breast 2.0 takes this further with its new 3-layer structure, combining NOVA softness with improved filling containment and shape retention.
Ultra Realistic Body Painting
The entire NOVA Series now receives upgraded Ultra Realistic Body Painting as the standard finish.
TAYU’s UR Body Painting introduces richer skin tones, refined shading, natural color transitions, and stronger body definition to create greater depth across the entire body.
The goal is simple: push TPE realism much further and reduce the visual gap between an advanced NOVA TPE body and silicone.

NOVA 158C+ Update
The new generation is not limited to new bodies. TAYU continues improving existing NOVA designs as well.
The NOVA 158C+ vaginal entrance has been enlarged, with the updated design already implemented for worldwide orders since August 2026.
We Keep Improving NOVA
We do not release a body and stop developing it. When there is a meaningful way to improve the experience, NOVA continues to evolve.
New Nina Head & New Chiori Makeup
Alongside the new 2026 NOVA upgrades, TAYU is also expanding the character lineup with a new Chiori makeup and the new Nina head.
The updated Chiori makeup gives her a fresh new look for the NOVA 153E release, with refined styling designed to better match the latest NOVA aesthetic.
The new Nina head adds another distinctive face option to the NOVA collection, giving customers more choice when creating their preferred configuration.
December 2025: Nova Body Configuration
Removable vagina
All NOVA dolls feature a fixed anus. For added convenience, the vagina can now be customized as a removable insert, making daily cleaning and handling significantly easier. The insert is also simple to replace or renew, helping maintain optimal hygiene over time.
Hard hands
Hard hands are crafted from a firmer material than the rest of the body, providing increased resistance to wear from frequent handling, dressing, and posing. The transition between the softer body material and the harder hands is finished with a discreet seam line for a clean, unobtrusive appearance.
Hard Feet
Hard feet are manufactured from a firmer material to enhance durability, particularly when the doll is posed standing or when shoes are worn. As with hard hands, a discreet transition seam marks where the harder material meets the softer body material. Please note that hard feet without bolts are not intended for long-term standing storage, as prolonged weight-bearing may damage the soles.
Wired Toes
Wired toes can only be installed in hard feet and feature internal wires that allow each toe to be bent and posed. This design helps reduce toe wobbling while improving stability and enhancing realism when positioning the feet.
TAYU NOVA Jenna (2025)
TAYU NOVA Series just released a new addition to their lineup. Introducing the NOVA Jenna “Tan”, a stunning new model built with TAYU’s latest Neo-Visco Elastomer Advanced material and the full suite of NOVA-exclusive technologies.

November 2025: the New 163D Body with Realistic True Skin Texture
Each curve and contour of the 163D body has been carefully crafted using real human references. The True Skin Texture was developed through a precise process of capturing and reproducing genuine female skin micro-details. The natural grain, subtle goosebumps, and the fine folds that form along the body parts such as thighs and hips have all been authentically replicated.
Our sculpting team used a live female model to collect the complete surface data, ensuring that every millimeter of the body reflects true human skin patterns. These textures are not simply painted on the doll. They are physically embedded into the mold itself, allowing light to play across the surface exactly as it does on human skin. This advancement brings an extraordinary sense of depth to photography and makes every touch feel remarkably lifelike. You can view more details of the process on our “Silicone Dolls Top Features” page.
When integrated with our soft silicone formulation, the surface reproduces the subtle warmth, elasticity, and texture of genuine human skin, setting a new standard for realism.
Below, you will find several photos showing the True Skin Texture finished body.

163D with True Skin Texture: Vaginal & Anal Texture
This new texture sits right in the sweet spot—more stimulating than the gentle canals, but not as overwhelming as the extreme patterns. Pulsebreaker combines winding grooves with medium-sized nodules that create a rhythmic, pulsing sensation along the stroke.

Introducing Articulated Toe Joints
The articulated toe joints enhance realism, and we recommend pairing them with hard feet for the best result. This option is currently not compatible with the 150, 156, 160, or 165 bodies.
Oral Head with Movable Jaw
We have developed a new highly realistic lip makeup technique that gives the lips a natural, life-like color and enhances the fine details around the lip texture. Both of these upgrades contribute to the elevated realism of the new Hannah head. In addition to that, the teeth are now fully integrated into the head production process, which prevents detachment during oral use and provides a more complete experience.
