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:
    24/04/2014
    Provenance:
    I am Leonard's first owner. He was purchased during his first sale period.
    Reason for choice:
    I had been looking for a BJD to get me started in the hobby, but had yet to find a match to my tastes. Leonard's story, fullset and the realistic features of his sculpt made me fall in love with him. I knew he was perfect as my first doll.
    Best Points:
    I love how realistic his features are. His sculpt is beautifully designed. I love how a simple change of wig and outfit can change his entire appearance.
    Worst Points:
    He was quite big and bulky for my first doll. He has a tendancy to topple if I'm not careful.

    Blue acrylic
    Wig:
    IHW_L032 - Charcoal Gray (#F16-1) or Black (#1B) or Sepia (#9)
    Favourite colours:
    Blue, but I tend to dress him in blacks and grays

    Past Life Leo - Carved Heritage Fullset - Pirate / Noble

    Modern Leo - Smart trousers and shirt or suits for work
  • Name story:
    I liked Leo's original name Leonard and it suits his personality, but I prefer to shorten it to Leo.

    Thirtys - He won't reveal his exact age ;)
    Character gender:
    Male
    Offsite roleplay:
    This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.
    Leo has two incarnations, his past life and modern day. His personality differs a little with each version.

    Past Life

    Leonard is of noble blood, a Duke and distant relative to the King. He is a man who although is not an outlaw himself, has ties to the world of the dark underground having grown up around men and women who later in life became criminals, including one or two pirates. The fact he remains friends with such people has never caused incident however as he uses his links to these elements to assist his people. He once disappeared, much to the distress of his lover Edan, in order to catch a traitor to the crown. He is at once both cocky and honest. An honourable and decent man, with a strong sense of loyalty. He does at times come off as a bit posh and snooty, but it is never in a manner to put anyone else down.

    Modern Day

    Leo is a professor of History. He particularly loves looking at the family trees of the aristocracy. He does not have the confidence and bravado of his past life counterpart and can be quite a nervous and eccentric personality. He loves to spend as much time as possible with his beloved Edan, who was once his student and is now his teaching assistant. He is often in a muddle, but it makes him all the more loveable :)
