Mizi dolls are premium, 1/6-scale collectible fashion dolls created by Jason and Dimon (JHD Toys) in 2018. Known for their intricate couture, vintage aesthetics, and articulation, they offer high-end styling rivaling brands like Integrity Toys or collectible Barbies. The Backstory According to her lore, Mizi is a glamorous 19-year-old model from the 1930s. After completing her college education in the United States, she returned to her home city of Shanghai. With her unique, striking face, she quickly became a top-tier model for commercial campaigns. Her career and love for travel take her across the globe, bringing her to the fashion streets of New York, Paris, and Tokyo. When JHD Toys first launched, Mizi was heavily inspired by the pin-up, art deco, and film noir glamour of 1930s Shanghai. The initial dolls featured a heavily stylized, retro pin-up look. Over time, JHD Toys refined her features, giving her a more modern, high-fashion appearance that is highly sought after by collectors. Mizi’s world has expanded far beyond the basic doll. JHD Toys has introduced an extensive cast of characters to her storyline, including: - Adonis: Mizi's glamorous male counterpart and frequent co-star.
- Friends & Rivals: Characters like Fatima, Lily, and Tommy Li (an Asian pop idol introduced in JHD's "Neon Jungle" collection).
- Expanding Lore: Modern and fantasy-inspired collections—ranging from office powerhouses to western/wasteland epics.
Mizi dolls are made with a smooth, high-quality resin-like hard plastic, while their hands are pliable vinyl and are removable for easy dressing. They are known for their expressive faces, making them a favorite for doll photography. While highly articulated, their measurements are a bit taller and bustier than standard Barbie or Integrity Toys dolls.
