Unlike US fashion dolls, which try to look fairly realistic in their faces, most Japanese dolls are very iconic and done in the anime style of big eyes and tiny noses. Tuxedo Mask's eyes are big and blue, and angled ever so slightly upward. He has dark brown hair that is very silky in texture, like that of Takara Jenny dolls, cut in a cute bob with heavy bangs. His lips are painted a very soft pink.
Rather than having a mask secured by elastic, Tuxedo Mask's domino is all plastic and fastens to his head by tiny holes just behind each ear. Ouch!


Here is whether the quality of Bandai dolls falls down a bit, in my opinion. His arms and legs are hollow. He has no bendable knees or twisting waist. The body mold has very little detailing, and he has what is (to me) a really odd looking torso.
Those dreaded stains again! This just goes to prove that leaving your dolls in their boxes is a bad idea.
