1. 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.

    Date of acquisition:
    06 DEC 2018
    Provenance:
    Facebook Sale; Third Owner (bought from crazie4bjds on DoA)
    Reason for choice:
    Face-sculpt is elegant.
    Best Points:
    - artist doll <3
    - resin is weighty; solid, smooth, no seam-lines
    - has a faceplate vs a headback
    - faceplate magnet has the strength of the gods
    Worst Points:
    - knee locking mechanism requires pulling the calves to bend/unlock knees
    - joints are a little loose; needs restringing (admittedly, the doll is from 2013)
    - hands/feet are not magnetized which makes her finicky to dress
    - faceplate magnet has the strength of the gods

    Head: 17cm- Her head is a bit larger than it looks. 5-6 inch wigs will be too small. Use at least 6-7 inch wigs. I actually personally use 7-8 inch wigs just because of the shape of the head. I'd just order a few sizes to start off with to see what you prefer.

  • Name story:
    I stumbled upon the Noble Dolls Raspberry sculpt back in September 2018 and loved the sculpt. Much to my dismay, folks were selling her on Instagram for an ungodly price since most dolls settled in their forever home and those open for adoption were immediately sniped by other folks. I scoured old Instagram posts and moved to Facebook doll groups to find any missed sale that may have been overlooked. In one ISO post, I saw that someone commented that they had a Raspberry for sale. This reply was back in March 2018 but I decided to message the seller because - hey - why not? Luckily, the Raspberry was still up for adoption and - after a plethora of photos - I soon had this lady on her way to me without having to scalp my wallet. I find myself extremely fortunate that I found this doll for sale from an extremely patient and friendly doll owner, which is why her name is what it is: Fortuna.
