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.

5StarDoll Minis discussion part 1

Aug 8, 2009

    1. Website is back up.

      Just wondering if anyone knows where a good place to buy a bra & panty set is?
       
    2. Ebay. I bought my girls panties off of ebay and they're wonderful.
       
    3. Pinkeed - Go to Gigi's in Niles and you might be able to find at least some panties that fit her for cheap. http://www.gigisdolls.com/
      If nothing else, they carry Goodreau and you can see if their clothing fits your girl. Also, they are super nice there and will let you try stuff on if you bring your doll and ask nicely. Mention that you are a member of Chitowndollz and they'll give you an extra 10% off too.

      Everyone else, I came here because I was hoping to see a photo of a 5-star girl next to another MSD girl, particularly Minifee or Bluefairy. Does anyone have these dolls that can take a photo of them next to each other nude? I'm curious as to how they compare size-wise.
       
    4. Got some undies from Tsuminaki/Vitta Vera recently. :)

      Thanks for the suggestion though. Been to Gigi's, but it's a long drive for me.
       
    5. To anyone who has an MSD Boy, are any of you having troubles with (when you're looking at him) your boy's right arm?

      I'm wondering because my boy's elbow likes to act funky and the hand won't tilt out or in, while the (when looking at) left arm is perfectly fine. :/
       
    6. I have the old girl body and the arm acts wierd at times too i think it's the stringing. As for the hand though I'm not sure.
       
    7. I have the exact same problem Icecrystals12. I have the old girl body too on my Lura and she is hellish with arm poses. Her hands will maybe do up and down on a good day, but won't twist at all, and her elbows either have to be completely straight or snap. I'm tempted to restring her...but I'm scared.
       
    8. New dolls!

      Minis: Lydia and Elva
       
    9. I found out what was wrong with my boy's hands last night!!!
      I'm going to email pictures about this to 5star but the issue:
      I bent the hands back and was looking at the connected ball joint of the left hand(which doesn't move right) and the right hand(which does). The left hand has a larger ball joint than the right. I need to get help with photographing it because it's hard to explain what I saw.
      But I bent both of the hands at the same angle, where the rim of the hand meets the edge of the arm. The right hand can do it fine while I had to push to get the left to go to the same angle. The left joint is taller and is almost out of the (socket?) at the exact same position as the right hand. :/
      Going to get photos when I get home today.


      and WOO! New dolls~ :D
       
    10. Yay for finding out what was wrong Icecrystals12. Hope you can get it phtographed.

      Im not sure about the new dolls. Theyre both pretty though
       
    11. I'm not a fan of Elva but I like Lydia. Lydia and Sha Sha look like they can be twins.
       
    12. @Icecystals12: That's just plain strange. Why would they make one larger than the other? A mistake?
       
    13. i love elva, lydia on the other hand, don't like her much.
       
    14. Another new doll up- a new boy this time, and a vampire! Nigel
       
    15. I'm a bit puzzled... some pictures it looks like the dolls are in french resin, others don't.
      So what resin do they use?
       
    16. They recently totally redid all their resin colors, so Tue newer dolls are the accurate look. I have mixed feelings on this, as I like the more translucent look but really loved the more bisque-like look of the old resin. Also, I'm curious and a bit worried about what the tan will look like.
       
    17. That I understood, the change of their resin ^^
      But what I can't make out is if it is now french resin or not.
      I sincerely dislike french resin so that would mean no dolls from them for me if it is...
       
    18. Wow, if they really have changed to French resin then I got my body from them just in time. I got it to make a hybrid doll, so the new semi-translucent look would have been major resin match fail!
       
    19. Personally, I doubt it's actually French resin since it's staying at the same price point.
