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.

60cm Ruri Hoshino doll

    2. She uses the Obitsu 60 body, though. I thought Obitsu 60s were allowed on this board? Did that change?

    3. I could definately tell by her hands that she is on a Obitsu body. It isn't all that uncommon for Obitsu to make those kinds of dolls.

    4. To my knowledge, Obitsus aren't considered to be BJDs as far as the board's definition goes.

      edit: my post apologizing for this reply got deleted, so I will mention here that I didn't know Obitsu's were allowed since someone else was telling me they were not and they didn't cover the points system...sorry!

    5. Obitsu 60cm dolls *are* allowed on this board, at least according to the rules that I read :)

      Otherwise, Dollfie Dream 2 bodies wouldn't be allowed on as well, since they have a similar internal skeleton.

    6. Oh yes they are! Read the rules, they grandfathered in Obitsus and DDIIs...and have agreed when the new male Obitsu comes out that we can talk about him too!

    8. http://www.azone-int.com/cct/nadesico/ruri.html

      She's being made by Azone, and has a 60cm Obitsu body. Azone has made a few other Obitsu dolls based on characters before, including one from something called Tokyo Weather Forecast, and also larger versions of their 1/6th dolls. The only difference between a doll like Ruri and a customized Obitsu is that Ruri has rooted hair (much like the rooted Dollfie Dream heads that Volks sells) and a pre-painted face.

      She's basically a "finished" Obitsu doll. ^_^
