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

    1. @Rabbit-moon: That's great. I love him! Thanks for the tip, I'll check them out.

      Edit: Most are sold. :(

    2. You are very welcome, Stellarphenomena! :thumbup

      Sorry so many of them are sold. It seems that as soon as they post them, they go very quickly. But, they are pretty good at restocking more dolls. They just keep finding more in the back. I've been keeping a look out for a Mia. :aeyepop:

    3. @Rabbit-moon: I always like Anna, but the one they have says white skin, really looks like a yellowed white skin! I really prefer normal, then white.

    4. Stellarphenomena, yeah, the dolls they have up for sale are definitely older dolls. (And, I'm so here for it! :dance)

      The Anna currently up for sale on their site says in she's from 2013. They are certainly getting rid of their old back-stock.

      The Todd I bought, which I pictured on the previous page, is from 2012 and white resin. I usually like normal pink resin for a doll. But, I really like how Todd's resin has mellowed into a creamy white. And, his make-up is a little dark and gothy looking, so it looks good on white skin.

      Their new face-up artist, Angela, is really killin' it with those face-ups. Absolutely gorgeous!

    5. Rabbit-moon: I agree, the face ups look fantastic - your Todd is awesome.

    6. I got a 5star doll!! :D Woo! I'm so excited. :celebrate Every time I checked their site, every doll I would have wanted had been bought. But not this time! I was able to snag a NS Kathi boy and I'm so happy! I hope he arrives soon, but this time of year is infamously slow.

    7. YAY! Pepperonipizza, I'm so glad you got one of 5Star's latest offerings! :dance

      It does seem that as soon as she puts them up for sale...they are gone! I was so hoping someone in our little group, here in the 5Star thread, had lucked-out and gotten a couple of these little treasures.

      I missed out on the two Ria(s) that were up for sale. (Ratz!!! :...(). But, I did snatch-up the red resin Mars. I'm so excited about him. I asked 5Star to tell Angela, their awesome face-up artist, to make him a little goth demon. It should be interesting what she does with him.

      Congrats again on getting a Kathy. That is a sculpt I thought was long gone. I hope your boy ships quickly. I can't wait to see pictures of him! :D
       
    8. @Rabbit-moon - thanks! I am so excited. I expect to have him home next week. He's coming really fast! I have to figure out what I want to do with him when he gets here. I really have no ideas yet. But I'll just add him to my naked doll brigade who are waiting on me to have the inspiration and oomph to make them clothing.

      Oooh, a red Mars will make for a fantastic goth demon! I look forward to seeing him! :D

    11. Pepperonipizza, I'm sure once Kathy-boy arrives you'll be filled with new inspiration. :thumbup

      Congrats Nancy_Schroeder_ca on getting the Nancy that 5Star had posted. She has such a pretty face-up. And, I love her whole winter themed outfit.

      Congrats to you too SaltedPretzel on getting two of 5Stars little beauties, Anna and Alice. Did you get face-ups for them, or are you going to do the face-ups yourself?

      I'm so excited that members of this thread are getting to take advantage of the great sales at 5Star! So many wonderful old dolls are finding homes. It's so much love! :fangirl:

      In honor of all those beautiful old dollies...

    12. @nancyschroeder_ca and @SaltedPretzel congrats to you on your new dolls! :XD:

      @Rabbit-moon - I hope he comes together quickly. I'm supposed to have him this week. Fingers crossed!

    14. Honestly I kind of like them without faceups. There's something really cute about them now that I like. Maybe I'll send them off sometime but in a little while.

    15. Pepperonipizza, I got my fingers crossed for you! :thumbup

      Stellarphenomena, I published this info a page or two back. But, here's the e-mail I received from 5Star:

      Dear Rabbit-moon,
      First of all, I would like to thank you for your continuous support to our company. Thank you very much. Last year we were shut down for a while because of the pandemic and when the pandemic resumed we went back to work and nothing else happened and everything will go back to normal. At present, we have some products in stock, which are the products in stock in recent years, so we want to sell some of the products in stock first, and then develop new products. At the same time, we also want to update some products and make improvements in various aspects. Thanks again for your support, we will arrange the delivery to you as soon as possible. Keep in touch.
      With regards,
      5STARDOLL TEAM”

      That was the explanation 5Star gave me. It certainly sounds like they will be creating new dolls. Maybe they need to unload the old stock to get capital to reinvest in developing new dolls. It's all a mystery to me. I just hope they don't disappear again. :eusa_pray

      Congrats Nancy_Schroeder_Cat! Alice is such a sweet sculpt. Her and Nancy will look great together. :thumbup

      Ah yes! These little dollies multiply like gremlins. Beware! Don't feed them after midnight. ;)
