It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.Dismiss Notice

Relationship with Bobobie
Though ResinSoul designs and sells their own molds on their website, they use Bobobie to cast their dolls. Bobobie also sells most molds designed by ResinSoul. Resinsoul dolls ordered from the Bobobie website use Resinsoul bodies by default; they can be special-ordered with heads or bodies from the Bobobie line when ordering from Bobobie. This service is not available from the ResinSoul website.
ResinSoul dolls are not distinguished from Bobobie dolls on the Bobobie website or from some dealers. This has lead to some confusion about the distinction between the companies, and ResinSoul dolls are quite commonly misidentified as Bobobie dolls. Because of the close relationship between the companies, they are also often discussed together.
Default body types and hybridising between the two companies
By default, Bobobie and ResinSoul dolls with come with bodies from their own company; however, ResinSoul dolls ordered from Bobobie’s webpage can be requested with Bobobie bodies, and vice versa. Bobobie heads and bodies are not available from ResinSoul. Some dealers, however, that stock dolls from both companies will label dolls from both companies as Bobobie dolls, which can cause some confusion. In that case, the default body will be determined by the company which designed the headsculpt.
It should be noted, however, that Bobobie heads and bodies are in general larger than ResinSoul heads and bodies, and may give a different proportional effect. The size of individual doll head sculpts may also vary within the same line by the same company, meaning that some heads are more readily hybridised with bodies from the sister company than others. Please see the pages for individual doll lines or sculpts for more detailed information.
Resin colors and attributes
One of the most appealing and unique attributes of ResinSoul, besides the low prices, are their many specialty resin colors. Besides White Skin (paper white) and Normal Skin (pale pink normal), RS also offers coffee (light tan), red, pink, green, gray, lavender, light blue, and most recently, a darker blue based off of the Na'Vi from the hit movie, Avatar.

The resin is comparatively lightweight, very smoothly sanded by default, and has a distinctive waxen sheen.
