Starting in 2013, Groove started to release a new line of products called Make It Own. The idea was you could really make Pullip (or friends) your own by customizing them. Items in the line range from blank doll kits, eye chips, bodies, wigs, outfits and even shoes.
Launch items available as of 11/2013
Blank Kits Everything you need to make your own Pullip, Dal, Isul or Taeyang. Includes body, head, eye mechanism, eyechips, eyelashes and screws. So far Pullip, Dal, Isul and Taeyang kits have been released in Natural skintone

Isul Kit – MSRP- 3800 yen

Bodies– First released in September of 2013. Identical to stock bodies but great for replacement parts especially since not all members of the Pullip family have an easy rebody alternative. So far all bodies have been released in “natural skintone”.

Wild question. Just out of curiosity, could you use Mod Podge as a sealant on a Pullip doll? Please forgive me if you find this thought ridiculous 😛
Oh, and I was looking for a sealant to use (preferably spray-on) and it has proven to be very difficult, I’ve looked into the Galleria sealant you had mentioned on a comment, but there are no stores within 100 miles of were I live and I have not been able to find it online? Do you know which ones are safe and which ones aren’t? I am looking for a bottle varnish for lips as well, but I’m still a newbie at this Pullip business :P. Thanks 😀
Mod Podge is not recommended for sealing Pullip face ups it looks fine at first but it can cause yellowing and can become a mess over time (it gets like gummy for lack of a better term). I’ve seen pictures of customs sealed with mod podge like a year or two after they were done and they were a complete mess. Use MSC flat (junkyspot should carry this) or this stuff from Volks http://volksusastore.com/dollfie/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=362 to seal Pullip face ups. Spray in a well ventilated area preferably outside and use basic precautions. Those are the two I would recommend, neither are particularly cheap but they’ll last many face ups.
Galleria is the gloss varnish I used for the lips, not the sealant. I got it from ACMoore but I believe they also carry it at Micheal’s, we don’t have HobbyLobby locally but I would assume they would probably carry it as well. It was like $18 for a good sized thing of it and it’ll last forever.
This feels like a dumb question … but is the Taeyang head the same as Pullip’s then? Or are the other MIO kits still forthcoming? Or at least a head for him??
These kits are much better on my crafting/doll wanting budget than the full dolls I’d love to indulge in…but I have a project in mind where I’d need both eventually. 😉
No worries, here’s the thing with the MIO kits when they launched there were Taeyang, Isul and Dal kits as well as Pullip but they were only produced in limited numbers. Each has it’s own unique head/body comparison of Byul, Dal, Isul, Pullip and Taeyang can be seen here – https://www.flickr.com/photos/pullip_junk/5694336726/in/photolist-gLMt3s-7KZgwm-aogFsk-8wJJSS-nrnnus-9FbYvm-fbbuRA-cxyWfS-gvffET-nq8FPV-aojsQ5-jXfxu4-eew42p-ghjiRV-9FbXVq-9wg1kg-aogFRc-nr3ppz-fppzzn-83LU9f-8wFJG2-9wj345-ghj2u5-fpDPRA-ddRRkH-fppyBi-6BmWJp-fppzR6-fppziM-gveqxn-nYSkDB-eeRXtn-eeRQcx-d3V6cw-gve1qy-gvevk8-nq9oRV-eeRXP2-9F8Z6D-eeRQCX-aogETe-dkx2q4-gvdYsA-9FbWuW-eeXy2N-9F91Gr-9wg1vc-aojpXU-8wJHQ5-hb7KxV
Groove released more Pullip kits but they have yet to announce if there will be more kits of the other dolls ie. Taeyang, Isul and Dal. The kits are really popular so unfortunately it seems pretty much all of the Taeyang, Isul and Dal kits went pretty quickly. Hopefully Groove will release more kits of the other dolls as they have amazing potential, I’m sorry I regret not getting more pictures of my MIO Taeyang before I customized him (I customized him to look like my favorite actor so it’s too embarrassing to share pictures of him now).
Thanks!
Will cross fingers and toes that they release more of the other kits. 🙂
umm hi I have A question . How much is the taeyang custom set in american dollars? I want to buy one for christmas!
Pullipstyle previously had them priced at $35 but they are currently out of stock, they hope to have some more in stock in the next month or two (probably not in time for Christmas).
So I was planning on getting a Pullip kit this cristmas and now when I look at my marked websites for them they seem to all be sold out, I was going to buy it from http://www.jpgroove.com/shop/index.php/clothes-body-eye-more/makeitown/mf001natural.html . Do you know if they will be restocking soon and do you know any place that might still have them instock for under $60?
Pullipstyle is expecting a big shipment of the MIO kits early next week, they should be about $35 a pop there but I would act quickly as the kits are very popular and will sell out quickly again.
Pullipstyle has them in stock now but they are going lightning quick http://www.pullipstyle.com/pullipstyle/product_info.php?cPath=69_95&products_id=1139
Thanks I just bought one and a wig. It’s my first Pullip.
Where else can the MIO kits be found other than on the link in Nick’s comment?
Pullipstyle is where I buy mine, I buy the bulk of my dolls from them http://www.pullipstyle.com/pullipstyle/product_info.php?cPath=69_95&products_id=1139
hi!
are you know if a site will resell own to make it Pullip because I would buy a Pullip make it own
please thank you ^^
Pullipstyle had a restock of the Pullip & Taeyang MIO kits in early January unfortunately they are extremely popular and sold out of the Pullip kit again within like two weeks, if you want the MIO kits you really need to keep an eye on Pullipstyle’s site for restocks!
Hello, do you know where I can purchase a Pullip make your own doll kit. I’ve been searching almost everywhere. Thank you.
The Make It Own Pullip kits are absurdly popular and sell out within a week or two of restocking. Pullipstyle is expecting tan MIO Pullip kits at the end of the month so keep a close eye on their shop.
Can you buy these
I don’t sell these, I’m not a seller. Pullipstyle seems to be on a two month rotation with restocks for these it’s always Pullips and one of the other doll kits but it’s on a rotation schedule. They should be due again the end of September, order quickly once they are in stock as they will sell out lightning quick like within a week or two max.
Do you know we’re I can find the make it own pullip kit? I really need one for my daughter thanks and have a nice day!
Pullipstyle currently has some Pullip kits in stock http://www.pullipstyle.com/pullipstyle/product_info.php?cPath=69_95&products_id=1139 they are extremely reliable and awesome sellers.
I am writing this in mid/late January 2017. When is the next restock of Pullip (NOT Taeyang, Isul, or Dal) MIO blank dolls? I don’t care about the skintone, I want to customize them to look like the current 14 Disney Princesses, so no matter which skintone is available, I’ll take it.
Mocha kits are in stock right now on Pullipstyle, normally Groove doesn’t seem to start production of the next batch until the current batch sells out so there tends to be a one-two month gap of no MIO kits before the next color restocks I think the next one is fair but I’m not positive.
Hello I know that the mocha had sold out a few months prior. When do you think Pullip style will restolk with pullip MIO kts?
I believe they will not restock until at least late May, no idea what color Pullip kits will be this time logically it should probably be natural I would think.
Okay thank you very much for getting back to me. I wish they would restock more often. I was able to get one Mocha before they sold out
