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 Tinies Discussion Part 4

Oct 14, 2016

    1. Well, I cleaned my entire floor, and I found it... I also ordered some new magnets so I can put extra magnets between his body and his clothes. Hopefully that will help the tail stay put. And my floor looks so nice now! :D

      Yes, I have the twins in tan. I saw them on the MP in white, I think (old posts, but they're still listed if anyone wants to check). I really need to do a better face-up on them, but the weather isn't great for MSC.
      Jadite needs a dress, but her body is so cute I don't want to cover it up! :D

    2. Glad you found his tail, Fairy Milliner! :thumbup (And a nice floor, always a plus.)

      Yeah, I saw the twin heads in the MP, but I felt they were asking too much for them. $130.00 for one tiny head? They are lovely, but a little rich for my blood. I bought my little 5Star Kane recently, and the whole doll for less than that.

      Here's a little spam of my Yami. I really love this sculpt. :aheartbea She came with a little beast arm, but I just used the human arm they enclosed. (I'll leave the beasty-stuff for my Aiden5.)

    3. @Fairy Milliner So glad you found it! Yep, that's how I tend to loose things as well, and how I find them. Cleaning is one of my least favorite activities but nothing motivates me more than wanting to find something. Aiden is really cute, like a chibi version of Hellboy to me.

      @Rabbit-moon Awe, yeah, she is really sweet looking. I think her faceup really suits her. Did you do it yourself?

      I've so many plans in mind for this year. I'm currently working on carrying/sleeping bags for all my tinies, my son's dolls, as well as a few extra to give away among my meetup group. I've been struggling to learn to sew for my dolls and trying to learn since I was 11. Having a good, high end machine that gives prompts to dummies like me has been the key to get me started and enjoy some minor successes so far. In the long run, it will allow me to build wardrobes for my lovelies at less expense than buying them and it allows for better fits. It's just going to be a long road to get to the skill level I hope. The mer-twins have tropical fish print on their bags. I'll be sure to post a photo when I finish them. Once I have all the bags made up, next is fish tails!

      These mer-twins I am lucky to have are really pushing me to make the air-brush set-up a goal for this year. I really like the job the previous owner did but noted that the difference between the pale pink and the dark blue makes it difficult to photograph them together. I want to remedy that for sure. I've a layaway nearly finished so then I'll have to decide between getting the airbrush or the next doll on my wish list. Maybe one day I'll win the lotto and get to play with dolls like it was my job, lol. Until then, I'm going to keep saving for retirement and hopefully bjds will still be a thing and I can play with dolls a lot more. Although, at the rate I'm going, I'll have a hundred of them. Oh, my!

    4. Hello there, I've been following this thread for a while and been a little to shy to post in here but getting braver. :)

      I currently own two Aiden dolls, Pain who is white skin and Panic who is red skin, two of my best posers!

      I am really looking forward to chatting with you all and seeing your beautiful dolls.

      Also 5stardoll have temporally released Jadite again, someone asked and they are now available on the website. I haven't seen this posted anywhere besides one thread in the ordering/shipping section so thought I'd let you guys know. I missed the last order and regretted it since, so I now have her on layaway. :)

    5. Hi, @Miku_Plantman ! Aiden is a really neat sculpt. I get a little giggle whenever I see him in red as it makes me think that bad-boy, Hellboy, used to be so cute when he was little! It would be cool to see both of your guys, if you don't mind to share a photo sometime.

      That's neat about the Jadite, it's a cute little doll and I like the color too. Thanks for mentioning it. I'd have a thousand dolls if money was no reason to hold back! Thanks to DoA, I get to enjoy a lot of them though, and that's worth quite a bit to me. I'd sure like to be able to hold one someday and see how Jadite moves. I especially like the wings and antennae.
       
    6. Wow! Thanks Miku_Plantman! That is huge news! Thanks for sharing that info!

      And, welcome to the thread! Don't be a stranger! :D


      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      Edit:
      :aeyepop:OMG! :aeyepop: 5Star has reopened the selling of their 1/6 Dolls again! :sumomo:

      I was just at the 5Star site and the pre-order option is open on all their 1/6 dolls! Unfortunately, none of the Aiden family dolls are back for sale, but Jadite definitely is.

      Yay! I can finally get my Amy! *does the happy dance!* :dance

    7. Thanks mollym! About Yami's face-up, it's her default face-up from the company. I wish I could do face-ups, but I don't really have any artistic abilities

      I really admire your tenacity to teach yourself sewing! I don't have the patience or skill for such an endeavor. Can't wait to see dollies with their sleeping bags.

      LOL! Yeah, we're all waiting to win Lotto! :fangirl:
       
    8. @mollym Haha yes, baby Hellboy is the cutest! The only problem is the red resin is very pink but still cute.

      Here is an old photo of both my dolls together. Pain has changed a bit since this was taken.
      [​IMG]

      I have a feeling that the antenna will be held in place with magnets? I may be wrong though. But same with the possibilities of infinate money. :) I fall in love with too may dolls far too easily too but also love seeing other people's dolls and how they style them.
      I'm really looking forward to seeing your twin's fish tails. :)

      @Rabbit-moon Ah I'm happy you managed to get your girl. Very lucky! I wonder if they are just bringing sculpts back in stages or if they will just open up for orders every once in a blue moon?

    9. WHOOHOO! I hope you get your Amy soon. She's so pretty. I wonder if I can finally get my hands on a pair of Jadite antenni as mine did not come with any. She was supposed to but I was never able to get it straightened out with the company. And I really kinda like Anna...and Peter...and I'd better stop looking at them. ::flees::
       
    10. Miku_Plantman, your Aidens are adorable! Wow! So cool Pain has wings!

      I'm not sure about how 5Star brings their dolls back, but I'm not taking any chances. I've already ordered Amy.

      All I'm praying for is that I don't get any nasty surprises, and she shows up in 5-6 months on a completely new body without double-joints. (I've got my fingers crossed.:eusa_pray)

      Thank you Kelli! I'm so glad I got a shot at getting an Amy! I have always thought she was a cutie! :D

      I hope you can get the antenna to your Jadite. That's a bummer that she didn't come with them.

      GAH! I wish that 5Star would bring back their tan resin! :...(
       
    11. It's tempting to get a Tong-Tong... But I've really already blown my doll budget and I need to keep some $$ reserved for if ever somebody offers to sell me a DC Jodie... :(
      If it had been Yami and/or Aiden-5, though I think I would have thrown caution to the wind... LOL!!

      @Rabbit-moon - I'm happy for you that you can still get Amy. I didn't really love mine when I first got her, but she grew on me... (I always loved her face, just not a big fan of her body...)

      @Miku_Plantman - your Aidens are really cute. I think Aiden will always be my favourite 5SD sculpt. There's just something about that face...
      (Also, I still remember when he was OT and kept sneaking into people's photographs alongside their on-topic 5SD tinies... LOL!!)

    12. Would anyone be able to tell me if I can order the kid size tony with a child body (I like the extra joints) if not would you mind showing me what the kid size body looks like? Would a kid size head even look good on the other body it’s only a 4cm difference but I’d like to be sure
       
    13. Hmmm...I went to check out the 5Star site. Was thinking of ordering a Bibi, and this came up:

      "We'll be back soon.
      We are currently updating our shop and will be back really soon.
      Thanks for your patience."

      https://5stardoll.com/en/

      It seems kind of odd, since their New Year Event was suppose to run until 10 February. I always get nervous when I see stuff like this. But, I did just get an answer back on an e-mail I sent to them, so I know they are still answering their mail.

      I wonder what's up?
       
    14. @Aara Maybe you could e-mail the company? They might have that body and head to be able to show you a photo!

      It's New Year for the other humans in Asia, so maybe that's a good time as any for them to update the website. Heck, maybe they'll re-release the Aiden dolls!

    15. Mollym, oh yeah, I forgot about the Chinese New Year.

      I sure hope when they come back they haven't discontinued Bibi again! :sweat
       
    16. @Rabbit-moon thank you! I think they are definitely releasing in batches.

      I've checked and their website is back up and @Fairy Milliner you are in unlucky luck! The Aiden 5 has been re-released! And how cheeky that they snuck into photos when they were OT!
       
      • x 1
    17. Thank you for the heads-up, Miku_Plantman.
      I don't see Bibi now, just Quintus.
      Edit: When you browse from a different direction, Bibi is there, though... They're defnitely not done with the site yet.

      I see they do not offer the beast arm for him, but he does come in the moon grey and purple. I think I may go for a purple one...

      I'm going to wait and see what they do with the site, though. All this blinking in and out is making me nervous. I don't want to end up ordering a doll and then finding out it's discontinued after all...

    18. Not a problem! And Bi Bi is still there, you need to go to their drop down menu and select 1/6 dolls and the full list come up.

      I've asked if i could add on to my Jadite order because it was just under the threshold to qualify for the event and they have said yes. :) So I think I will be adding a moon grey Aiden 5 or 10 and I'm trying to decide between the event dolls. They are all really cute!

      I asked about Yami, they have hinted a re-release but it won't be for a while. "Yami is not going to be released recently." Very exciting stuff!

    20. Wow!!! Holy smokes! :aeyepop: I just visited the 5Star site, and saw at all the changes!

      They are offering Aiden in red resin again! *does the happy dance*.:dance I'm a little bummed that he doesn't have his beast arm, though. But, Wow! Great to see the Aidens being offered in so many great colors!

      And Bibi is still there! *breathes a sigh of relief*. I guess I better get busy and order him.

      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      Yeah ahalfling, that's what I thought, too. The Super Kid is super cute. But, I'm not in the market of a 40cm kid.

      Do you think he's part of the Big Baby wave that seems to be so popular right now with some companies?
