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. Hi, I'm just popping in to ask if anyone here knows if 5stardoll 1/4 girl bodies can hybrid well with any other company's heads. I have a Chu girl myself, whom I got as a gift, and I struggle a bit with bonding to her, so I was considering if maybe a different head would turn things around. Especially if there's any 7-8in size heads that would work well, that would be lovely, since some unique wigs I'm dying for are only available in that size ^^' . I'd consider getting a different 5stardoll head for her, but it looks like they've dropped the line and don't sell heads separately in the first place, which is a bummer.

      Thanks for any help!

    2. This thread seems to have quieted down a bit, though with 5Stardoll new doll Mu Ran, I'm thinking it might pick up again.

      I understand why 5stardoll has taken away their earlier dolls, Mu Ran looks so different in style and I think his look would appeal to more people that weren't interested in 5Stardoll before.

      I've liked their earlier dolls but have never bought one though I'm excited to see what they will design next or if they will have similar features to the older sculpts.
       
    3. I saw the new MSD and I absolutely love him! I'm curious though, can someone tell me if 5SD uses traditional/urethane resin or french/eco resin?
       
    4. I liked the old styling a lot with the slightly more mature but still teenage sculpts. I think the new look is a lot more generic compared to what we already see in the market but I think they did a good job either way.

      I have to say I'm disappointed they never addressed the hand sculpt. I always find it a little disturbing how small their hands are even tho I love my Nigel boy and girl.
       
    5. my 5stardoll chu, named Bethanie, she use to be steampunk...
      hre a spam of her new amazing makeup and alpaca wig:

    6. I'm getting a Chu from the market place, she'll be a twin to my Dikadoll AAAAA on a boys body named Rory after Rory Williams. Her name will be Amelia, Amy for short because of Amy Pond. Does anyone know who close Dikadoll pink normal and 5star white match up. It looks pretty close to me.
       
    7. The old white looks a bit paler than the Dika pink, 5-stars new white is a very stark white and doesn't match at all. I can take pics tomorrow if you're interested.
       
    8. That would be great! My Dikadoll is pink normal and I was just curious how close a match they'd be.

      Ok this is my Dika doll Alder in pink normal with my Ji in white, she's a couple years old now, but she really hasn't yellowed in my opinion. My last order from 5star came with some very stark white dolls, definitely a different shade, but the older white is a pretty close match with some blushing. not perfect, but I wouldn't mind it for hybridizing.
       
    10. Random Chu spam please to hold me over til she gets here! :)

      She's here and she's much more elegant and mature than I expected! This is just temp wig and eyes, I'm getting her a red wig and blue eyes. She's also getting freckles. [​IMG]
       
    11. here a new spam of mine , whith a new alpaca wig, in blond, to test :

    12. So I had a little trouble finding who she was, Amy didn't feel right. I had a couple ideas but I figured her out tonight! Her name will be Chiyoko which means/uses the charcters for thousand, generation, and child so Child of a Thousand Generations. She will be named this because she will be a kitsune! Kimono, and tail and she's already happier! [​IMG]

    18. Hi all!
      What a lot of cuties here *_* I just received my first 5star doll, a grey second hand Ji that was a total impulse buy... and I love her! She's bigger than I expected but so darn pretty! She need ALL (she borrowed clothing and wig from my other dolls) especially a wig that doesn't make her look greenish. I was thinking about a lilac wig, maybe a mohair one.
