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

Clothing
- SartoriaJ British Dress Uniform - Fits very well, good shoulder width and trouser length. Slightly loose in the waist, sleeves are a little short, and the pants are a bit tight around the groin area (as the Timeless Body is somewhat, quote, inconveniently well-endowed.)
Tops
- Iplehouse EID Model
- Iplehouse SID short sleeved shirts - long sleeves tend to be on the short side
- Hound size clothes - only material that can stretch
- rRabit 70cm sweaters
- M3 Studio Taobao - choose size IPEID模特体 (available for select items)
- Lattice shirts: broad enough for the shoulders, but baggy overall
- Dollclans S line shirt - a little big
- Leekeworld shirts - questionable
- Nine9style 70cm/SD17 baggy shirts - a bit tight
- Nine9style 70cm/SD17 t-shirt
- Tata’s Paradise: SSDF tops
- Tata’s Paradise: some 70cm shirts
- TTYA shirts - fits but with a lot of stretch
- TTYA sweaters - sleeves run short

Pants
- Iplehouse EID Model
- Freedom Teller EID (Model) - on the baggy side, choose slim fit if possible
- Model-size jeans - may be big around the waist, can be remedied with a belt

- Freedom Teller EID model pants - perfect fit
- rRabit 70cm pants/slacks
- M3 Studio, choose IPEID模特体 size (available for select items, may run big)
- Candy coloured shorts - Unknown reference, may be sold out. Yellow and 'red'/pink are made of stretchy material and, being measured smaller, suit Timeless body perfectly. Body sits in the shorts without any problems.
- Plaid pirate shorts and tied dye denim shorts (unknown reference) - No stretch, modifications needed. Look slightly baggy on the body though they do not slip off. Body sits in the shorts without any problems.
- Nine9style 70cm/SD17 baggy pants?

Customized
- Aristocracy (Taobao)

Shoes
- Iplehouse EID
- Boots with heels can cause standing difficulties, likely due to the flatness of the feet

Eyes
- 12mm
- 11mm Eyeco silicone. 13mm for larger iris
- 14mm - low dome/small iris recommended
- Goohwa has long and shallow eye sockets, making a 14mm overall size the best choice.
- 12mm urethane Mako eyes - show a little putty on the sides
Wigs
- 8-9", best fit
- 9-10"
- 7-8" Kemper wigs - fit Venitu tightly, not perfect
The bottom of some wig caps push up against the back of Venitu's neck, moving the wig and hairline too low on his forehead.
Bad Fit

- Iplehouse EID man training pants - too loose
- Nine9style ‘’boater’’ shoes
- Nine9style tight shirts
- Sadol SSDF pants
- TTYA pants
- Dollmore Glamour Model fitted trousers - will not go past the hips
Hybrids
5th Motif's dolls are notoriously difficult to hybrid due to the depth and position of the heads' neck hole, as well as the size of the neck. Most hybrids require modification to work successfully.
5th Motif heads on Other Bodies
- Dollstown 17/18yrs boy body (also cast by Dollshe): Head sits too low on the neck, may be remedied with a neck adapter or other mods to heighten the neck.
- Dollstown 18yrs reference (Flickr) - uses Twigling Eloy neck adapter
5th Motif Timeless Body with Other Heads
- Soom Idealian heads: The neck is too large and tall for the head. Can fit with modding, the head's neck hole should be opened to around 12 cm and the body's neck reduced all around to roughly a 12.3 cm circumference.
