Any Chobits out there?

Post by Dollstudio »

Hi,

quite some of became curious about dolls after watching or reading Chobits (ちょびっツ Chobittsu) from CLAMP. This Anime & Manga series is about the relationship between organic and synthetic persons. The latter ones are called 'persocom' (パソコン Pasokon) and can move, talk, and connect to the Internet.

Now I am curious… are there any Chobits lookalikes out there?

Has someone created a doppelganger Chi (ちぃ Chii) doll?

Thanks,

Sandro

I haven't done a Chobits/Chii style cosplay myself with my doll, but I would like to at some point. In China DS (EX) Doll do a special 145 Chobits cosplay edition!

You can get the ears online for about £20 which are the hardest piece to source for the outfit.

Hi,

it's pretty close, but I'm sure we can do do better than this…

Though, the EX outfit might be a good source for Chi's ears, that's right.

A Chi lookalike should be 152 cm; an authentic size would also prevent import restrictions of UT-145/Nina.

Yuzuki would have to be almost life-sized:

Maybe a doll around ~160 cm and flamboyant maid outfit…

Funny when I first found out about dolls. I was looking at how far chibots/home robots had come in 06.
Imagine my reaction last year to find the hobby had gone almost silent with few post being made in 2010. Oh well.
As for Dolls I haven't seen that many done up to loot like a Chobit or Persocom. I do have plans for one of my dolls to get a cosplay of Persocom dressed as a maid with ears attached to a headband. Something that eill be posted in her eye candy thread after I get it started.

Hi,

I'm a bit surprised that everybody seems to focus only on superficial attributes like ears/data ports, that pink hair thingie (don't know the term), or the costume. Is it only these accessories which create a Chobits lookalike?

For me, the picture below is among of the best Chi portraits I have ever seen, without trying to mimic the superficial attributes of the cartoon character.

Image

For me, this photo by 赤色彗星wmh6081 captures the essence of a Chobits character like Chi (with essence I mean the sweetness, the innocence, the naivety…)

Anyway, let's switch to the cosplay part. That's fun, too…

Since I'm still waiting on the set from EX Doll mentioned by Willendorph above, I have 3D printed some of the accessories in the meantime.

The first part are the ears respectively 'data ports':

They still need some paint and a headband. Then a blonde wig with bangs…

Remember that the Costume is half the character. This is why many people focus on it first.

Chii's ears are easy to replicate. These can be done out of craft foam and rigged with a hing to open and closed. Then a old head set can provide the USB, ear jack we see in the Manga/Anime.

Amazon is also a good place to find Ear, hair bob's, Chii's Lolita/Goth outfit and blond wigs.

Now for a Doll, you all ready nailed down Chii. A petite body with small breast works best. Anime heads and eyes are available in a range of sizes really it depends on the person.

Hi,

here is my DIY approach.
DSC05411.JPG
DSC05411.JPG (458.67 KiB) Viewed 4741 times
The ears/data ports, the hair thingies and the headband to mount the ears are 3D printed with PLA, smoothed in acetone, and then painted with nail base, pink nail gel, coated with hair spray for a little gloss.

The 'ears' were printed in a single piece and don't have a joint for opening; also they are closed on the back, so they will sit on top of the original ears and not enclose them (which would look better). The same goes for the hair thingies: single piece, no hinge mechanism, just for show, not so much to keep a hairdo. There is always room for enhancement :roll:

Let's see who will become Chi. I guess Setsuko (Happy Doll HA-160) will have to do some cosplay…

Ok, so this is a pretty late reply, but we've been working on this one for a while! I'll put more of the photoset in Tomoe's thread (link in signature)

Very awesome photos!!
I love Chobits as well, tbh how could anyone not?

So Netflix has a brand new show out, its VASTLY similar to chobits but its not an Anime its a normal tv show.
Its called Better then us.
Starts out more sex doll/droid but by about episode 6 it starts getting pretty chobits-y.

Definitely a must watch and a good image of what the future could hold.

Its also on the popular shows list, makes you wonder just how much humans want dolls like this show or chobits more and more =p

Interesting find!



Looks like a cross between Chobits and Humans (made in RUSSIA!)
