This paper proposes an innovative approach towards the determination of shapes of branched polymers in the long chain limit. The method proposed develops an earlier suggestion by G. Wei which however in its evaluation is limited to specific regular structures. Here, we show that by numerically evaluating and extrapolating the corresponding sums and integrals this approach is very powerful and will e.g. allow to determine in the same spirit the shapes of irregular branched structures. The carefully performed simulations including two different simulation schemes fully support the results of the semi-analytic approach. We demonstrate the method and compare the results with two different carefully performed MC simulation methods which favorably support the analytical results.
