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.

☆~~ Granado Doll Discussion Part 18 ~~☆

Oct 22, 2019

    1. @Jeanemon it looks like Boyd. He's very cute!
       
    2. He's super cute with his little duck lips. I bought him as an impulse right before I left the hobby, so I'm like 'uhhh whomst are you, sir". His skin is still a really nice color, even after like eight or nine years in a box.

      Edit: So I took the box fully out and found the slip at the bottom. He's a Xavier!

    3. I got my V01 back from a Pepstar faceup and he looks so gorgeous to me now. With the newest VIP showing up it's nice to have one of the originals.

    4. @Jeanemon mystery solved! :lol:

      @SteamWitch I love his new soft look. V01 is one of my favorite VIP sculpts.

    5. Oh he's so lovely! Pepstar does such great face ups! :D
       
    6. Lookit the new V-12 image Granado posted on IG. He's looking cuter by the photo: Login • Instagram

      My Noah is back at the faceup artist's to remove his "makeup foundation" and bring his color back to Granado New Normal. Really excited to see how he'll look once the work's done!

    7. You aren’t a BJD veteran until you’ve accidentally shot a doll’s tiny dick across the room in front of someone’s granny, amiright? :dance Bonus points if everyone in the room then has to help find the darn thing…

    8. @AntarelNefertili - I mean, I'm already 100% down to buy this guy. Ughhhh he's so handsome! But which resin colour would be the smartest choice given I have absolutely 0 plans for him?

      @Kiyakotari - Ahahaha yep that sounds about right! :lol: I've not managed to do that yet, but I have had eyes go off on adventures when a table has been knocked.

    9. Can't say I have, but I can thank you for a MUCH needed LOL, ROFL, moment for me and my partner after a very rough day! Thank you!!!!!

      Personally, I'm very torn on the new head. Love the smirk, but I'm less crazy, personally, about the nose...at least for any of the lads I need to shell. Sigh...Prolly just as well...
       
    10. Anyone with the Evol or Embody, how hard is it to clothe these guys? And are they really 70CM?
      I have a character I've tried twice to get right and I'm thinking it might be easiest to buy a whole doll from Granado when they release the head I want (big if I guess lol but it's better than using the body I currently have which I hate so much I can't take it anymore)
       
    11. I have the vindoll version of the Embody that is 68cm with head but the resin one claims it is 70cm. (I'm no help at all :sweat)
      Oh he can wear Ringdoll 03 and Dollmore Glamor model clothes and shoes.

    12. AHAHAHAH OH GOODNESS! Did they really help you look for it?
       
    13. How similiar are soom ID75 body and adagio75?
       
    14. I could let you know when my Embody arrives. If it arrives in time given the lockdown.

    15. I guess I should be thankful I accidentally let go of my guy's "special parts" elastic when it was just the two of us in the room. :XD: (Well, hubby kept accidentally knocking off another doll's magnetic peens from the refrigerator before, so I ended up storing them in a pickle jar instead.)

      @VampireAngel13
      The Embody/Evol heads are quite tricky to hybrid owing to their petite sizes, so if you have no patience/funds for trial-and-error, buying a full doll will save you a lot of trouble in the long run.

      @MilkHoney
      I don't have any Soom bodies so I couldn't do a comparison with my 75Adagio, sorry! However, the 75Adagio definitely prefers large heads for things to look to-scale.

    16. Hmm. Upon seeing more images of V-12 I'm really torn. The first few images they teased showed him looking so smirky, but in the most recent photos his smirk doesn't seem quite as extreme. I have a month to decide I guess.
       
    17. @SteamWitch yeah I think the vinyl ones might be a little smaller? I hope so lol I really want him to be like exactly 70 still he’s probably not that much tinier so if I can get him clothes that easy it would be great

      @Quiet and Insane lol you never know! I really want Gabriel and who knows when he’ll be released next!! It might be years :( (or i could just get the body and wait for the perfect head while using one of the ones I already have)

      @AntarelNefertili im not worried about head size. I have a lot of Granado heads and all of them are hybrids. The problem is the impldoll body one is on…I hate it so much. It’s the worst designed body I’ve ever had and I have 3 Iplehouse dolls lol.
      I’m so tired of dealing with it I’d rather replace the whole doll and start from scratch.

      but I haven’t owned a granado body since their original one way back in the day and I’m really picky about the height of my guys (but the pure torture of that impl body might make me ignore a cm or two tbh)

      I got my VIP email and I’m both tempted by the new guy and also think he looks like Henry Cavill a little which turns me off. Tho Friday when I was really looking at him I was also watching the Witcher so that might have been it :XD:
       
    18. It is Robert Pattinson, (The Batman) I recognized him immediately but as soon as they said he was British I was positive.

    19. omg you’re right!! I even had that thought but seriously I watched the whole first season of Witcher and that’s all I could see.

      ironically I don’t want him either (even tho he’s now my favorite live action Batman)

      ETA if I wasn’t on my phone I’d post Moon Knight here since he’s a V05 even if you can’t see him under his mask. After 5 years of owning him his actual costume is done!
