Brownie is MuDoll's line of 11.4 cm tiny bjds. These molds were originally produced by FelixDoll starting in 2007l; however, after Felixdoll's 2010 bankruptcy, production was taken over by MuDoll. Brownies are unique in having a magnetic mechanism that holds its eyes in place instead of putty. Additionally Brownie heads contain a magnet that holds their wigs in place as each wig has a small metal plate at its crown. Brownie heads are easily removable, as they have a magnetic connection to the body. Hands are easily replaceable as well: different versions of "utility" and "style" hands have been produced in the past. Brownies are known for their extreme poseability, possessing more joints than other tiny BJDs of similar size.
