An excellent 62 CM hybrid body choice for BJD owners who prioritize dynamic posing over a seamless, minimal-joint appearance.
𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫:
Perfect for anyone looking for an affordable yet beautifully sculpted body that’s also super easy to pose. For those who love photographing your dolls in dynamic or tricky poses, this one delivers!
𝐃𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞:
The joints are quite visible, which can take away from a seamless look in photos. In case you love to dress your dolls in revealing outfits, you might want to consider more careful.

CoralReef is planning to release a new female body soon with the same mechanism, but with a more model-like shape instead of this curvy one. I’m seriously considering it — especially since I’ve been thinking about switching Diana from her Fairyland F60 Fairyline body to a 62cm option.
I’ll admit I was nervous while waiting (nearly 4 months!), but now that it’s here, I love it even more than I expected. As a dolly mom who enjoys photographing her BJD children, I want a body that can bring my ideas to life — and this one really delivers. It poses beautifully and lets me express my imagination without moments of frustration. 💖
✨ In one sentence: This body is even more beautiful in person than in the photos! 😍
Coral Reef Mellow Body 62cm – Review
Height: 62cm
Type: Mature 1/3 female body
Material: Resin
Skin Tones Available: White, Pink, Tan
Joint System: Double-jointed
✨ Pros:
- Excellent posing ability – especially in the arms and legs; holds natural seated and bent poses well.
- Slim, elegant proportions – ideal for a wide range of stylings, from fantasy to fashion-forward.
- Balanced and stable – stands and sits without much effort, sueding, or wired.
- Pretty, graceful hand sculpt – expressive and well-detailed.
🔍 Cons:
- Bean-shaped upper thigh joints – great for mobility, but visually interrupt the leg line (subjective based on aesthetic preference).
- Slightly limited back arch – torso movement is decent but not extreme.
- Clothing fit – most SD16 outfits will fit well (fit some standard SD13/SDGr outfits with adjustable tops).
📝 Overall Impression:
The Coral Reef Mellow 62cm body is a fantastic option for collectors who value expressive posing and graceful lines. While some joint aesthetics (like the thighs) might not appeal to everyone, the functional benefits are undeniable. A solid hybrid choice or standalone body with a lot of charm and character.
