Editing Pullip (section)

==Pullip's companions==

===Namu===
Namu was the first male counterpart to Pullip and his character was introduced as her boyfriend. Namu was 34&nbsp;cm tall and had an oversized head (1:3 scale, like Pullip) and an articulated body. Also like Pullip, Namu's eyes can be moved from side to side and his eyelids can blink via levers on the back of the head. He can be customized similar to Pullip dolls. Clothing for Namu can be exchanged with many 1:6 action figures and dolls, including the modern [[Ken doll]].

There were seven versions of Namu released between 2004 and 2005. The first Namu, called Vispo, had rooted hair, similar to the early Pullips; however, all subsequent Namu releases had glued-on wigs. Jun Planning retired Namu in 2005 under the story that he and Pullip had "broken up." The final Namu, released in May 2005, was "Happy Birthday Namu #2," also called Geronimo and came in a set together with Pullip Sacagawea. In 2006, a new male doll called Taeyang replaced Namu.

===Taeyang===
Taeyang was introduced in February 2006 as Pullip's new boyfriend, replacing Namu. The first Taeyang released was named MJ and was intended as a counterpart to Pullip Rida. Taeyang's body is the same as his predecessor, Namu, but his face and head sculpt are different, with a wider jaw and blunter chin. Like Pullip, Taeyang has eyes that move from side to side, and eyelids that can blink and close, via levers on the back of his head. Starting with Taeyang Hash in August 2007, Taeyang's eyelids could remain closed via these levers. Taeyang can be customized, just like Pullip can, with the ability to change his hair, eyes, faceup, and body. He stands 36&nbsp;cm tall and can exchange clothes with many 1:6 action figures and dolls, including the modern [[Ken doll]]. Taeyang is released on a bi-monthly basis by Jun Planning.<ref>{{cite web|title=Taeyang profile|url=http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=996&cate_no=25&display_group=3|work=pullip.net|accessdate=27 December 2013|language=Korean|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131227151423/http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=996&cate_no=25&display_group=3|archive-date=27 December 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Since 2006, Jun Planning has released six to seven versions of Taeyang each year, with more than 50 different releases in total. Some of the Taeyang dolls bear close resemblance to popular characters and celebrities. Taeyang [[Edward Scissorhands]] is licensed from [[Tim Burton]]'s eponymous character. Taeyang Shade bears close resemblance to [[Sherlock Holmes]]. Taeyang Another King was inspired by the [[King of Hearts (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)|King of Hearts]] from the [[Alice in Wonderland]] story.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://pullip.net/board/view.php?no=140&id=news&category=1 |title=Pullip.net |access-date=2008-12-19 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080308124355/http://pullip.net/board/view.php?no=140&id=news&category=1 |archive-date=2008-03-08 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

===Dal===
Dal was introduced in October 2006, with the first three versions–Drta, Fiori and Monomono–released concurrently. Dal is profiled as Taeyang's 13-year-old sister, who considers Pullip to be her rival in terms of fashion and style. Just as Pullip is approximately the size of 1:6 scale fashion dolls like [[Barbie]] and [[Jenny (doll)|Jenny]], Dal is similar in size to "little sister"-type dolls such as [[Skipper (Barbie)|Skipper]] and [[Licca]]. Dal is 26.3&nbsp;cm in height and, when standing next to Pullip, comes up to her shoulder.<ref>{{cite web|title=Dal profile|url=http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=991&cate_no=7&display_group=3|work=pullip.net|accessdate=27 December 2013|language=Korean|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131227150719/http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=991&cate_no=7&display_group=3|archive-date=27 December 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Dal's body articulation is similar to Pullip's. Her eyes move from side to side, but they do not close. Dals can be customized, just like Pullips and Taeyangs. Jun Planning announced in the beginning of 2008 that a new Dal would be released every month. Since then, the manufacturer has occasionally skipped a few months between releases; however, to date, there have been more than 75 Dals released in total.

===Byul===
Byul was introduced in December 2008, with the first version named Eris. Byul shares the Dal body type but has a different face sculpt. She is profiled as Dal's 13-year-old best friend who has secretly lost her heart to Isul, Pullip's little brother. Just like Dals, Byuls cannot close their eyes, and their height is 26.3&nbsp;cm.<ref>{{cite web|title=Byul profile|url=http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=993&cate_no=12&display_group=3|work=pullip.net|accessdate=27 December 2013|language=Korean|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131227160520/http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=993&cate_no=12&display_group=3|archive-date=27 December 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> A new Byul is released approximately every two to five months. Since 2008, there have been more than 25 Byul releases.

===Isul===
Isul is Pullip's 15-year-old brother and was first released in February 2011. The debut Isul was named Apollo and was part of the Steampunk series of Pullip dolls. Like Pullip, Isul has eyes that can move from side to side and eyelids that can blink and close via levers on the back of the head. Isul is profiled as a high school student in [[San Francisco]] who likes to play soccer. As a prodigy, he is a fan of reading university literature. In personality, he is said to be very calm, tender and helpful. Isul is 29.5&nbsp;cm tall.<ref>{{cite web|title=Isul profile|url=http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=995&cate_no=24&display_group=3|work=pullip.net|accessdate=27 December 2013|language=Korean|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131227163014/http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=995&cate_no=24&display_group=3|archive-date=27 December 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref>  Isul is released approximately once per month, but the Groove sometimes skips a month or two between releases. Since 2011, there have been more than 30 Isul releases.

===Yeolume===
Released in February 2013, Yeolume is Pullip's future daughter and the newest addition to the Pullip line of dolls. Yeolume is 26&nbsp;cm tall,<ref>{{cite web|title=Yeolume profile|url=http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=997&cate_no=41&display_group=3|work=pullip.net|accessdate=27 December 2013|language=Korean|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131227161055/http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=997&cate_no=41&display_group=3|archive-date=27 December 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> and the first release, named Podo, wears a school uniform with a pink and blue bow.<ref>{{cite web|title=Yeolume Podo official selling page|url=http://pullipmall.net/product/detail.html?product_no=883&cate_no=41&display_group=1|work=pullip.net|accessdate=27 December 2013|language=Korean|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131227145731/http://pullipmall.net/product/detail.html?product_no=883&cate_no=41&display_group=1|archive-date=27 December 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> According to her biography on the official [http://pullip.net Pullip website], Yeolume is 10 years old and is an elementary school student.

Yeolume is approximately the same size as Dal and, like Dal and Byul, her eyes moves from side to side but cannot close. However, unlike Dal and Byul, the design of Yeloume's body is very different: she has minimal articulation points, and her body somewhat resembles a Little Pullip (though larger in size) or a [[Blythe (doll)|Blythe]] doll. However, Yeolume's arms and legs do bend and she can be posed to a certain extent. Like the other dolls in the Pullip line, Yeolume is customizable and her body can easily be swapped for a sturdier, more flexible body (e.g., a Pure Neemo or Obitsu body).

===Little Pullip===
Little Pullip is a miniature version of Pullip, with a 1:12 scale body and a 1:6 scale head. Often called a "mini," these little versions stand about 4.5 inches tall.<ref>{{cite web|title=Little Pullip+ profile|url=http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=990&cate_no=60&display_group=3|work=pullip.net|accessdate=27 December 2013|language=Korean|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131227172808/http://pullipmall.net/product/detail_item.html?product_no=990&cate_no=60&display_group=3|archive-date=27 December 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> Little Pullips lack articulated elbows or knee joints, their shoes are painted on, and their eyes do not move or blink. Despite their small size and limited articulation points, they are still somewhat customizable: they can be given new wigs, bodies, eye colors, and makeup.

Several editions of Little Pullip are miniature replica of full-sized Pullip dolls with similar name, clothes, hair, and makeup, such as Principessa, Cornice, and Mir. The Little Pullips who happen to not be modeled after a full-sized doll are unique to the Little Pullip line, such as Riletto, Aloalo, and Miss Green. The only Pullip doll that was first released as a Little Pullip and later released as a larger, full-sized doll was Pullip Froggy. There have been themed releases for the Little Pullip line that are distinct and completely separate from the full-sized releases, including the Western [[Western astrology|astrological signs]] and the [[Town Musicians of Bremen|Bremen Town Musicians]].

Little Pullips were first introduced in January 2005 with the release of Moon, a miniature replica of the full-sized Pullip doll of the same name. Production of Little Pullips stopped in March 2007 but resumed in October 2009 under the name Little Pullip +. The primary difference between the original line and the Plus line is that the latter dolls have a ball-jointed head that can swivel and tilt to different angles, allowing for more expressiveness than the original Little Pullip head, which could only turn from side to side along a single axis.

There are also Little Taeyangs, Little Dals and Little Byuls that are part of the Little Pullip line. The Docolla line (a portmanteau of "doll" + "collaboration") was released as an extension of the Little Pullip + line, beginning in July 2011 with the release of miniature Pullip Grell from [[Black Butler]].
