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

Alchemic Labo
Alchemic Labo was founded by Gentaro Araki and is known for the Unoa series (ユノア or Unoa is pronounced "yu no ah").
Previously, Unoa dolls were only available through lotteries, pre-orders, and the secondhand market. As of July 2015, Alchemic Labo’s official USA-based distributer, Unoalchemy, sells B-grade kits to international customers.
The Unoa 1.0 and 1.5 lines are considered some of the original slim mini BJDs. Unoa Second are a more unusual 1/4 scale fashion doll size, and Unoa Lights are 30cm fashion doll sized. Unoa Zero and Elder are 1/3 scale.
Doll Lines
- Unoa Quluts 1.0
- Unoa Quluts 1.5
- Unoa Quluts Chibi
- Unoa Quluts Second
- Unoa Light
- Unoa Zero
- Unoa Quluts Elder
- Unoa Quluts Zero-One (Rowan)
Features
Unoa dolls have a unique eye mechanism that allows the owner to move the eyes around without removing the faceplate. They are also unique because of the many option parts that are available for them. These include faceplates, hands, glasses and various ears and horns.
Several dolls have interchangeable faces, or "faceplates." For example, a full-set Unoa Zero comes with both the Latea and Marion faceplates. There are several different faceplates created for both Sist, Lusis, L-bi and B-el that can be purchased separately.
