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.

    2. I admit I didn't realize this when I first commented and I edited it to be more general, but are you trying to say Oscar is not a large doll..?

    3. My sis has been in contact with Blossom Doll of China and now Aimerai a little. Since we saw the similarity of styles in both companies' dolls, she asked. Turns out the Chinese chief sculptor of Aimerai is the ex-sculptor of now defunct Blossom Doll. That's where the similar style derives from. You can see it in Scraps' face mold quiet clearly.
      Don't know where she factors in besides selling Aimerai dolls, but maybe the MOC person only put the patches on Scraps, or made a design sketch of her...:lol:

      BTW, Aimerai has found a Japanese sales agent as well. Now they are looking for an European dealership as well. Good news! I'm looking forward to it. <3

    4. Wait - Blossom doll is defunct? Their website still seems to be working?

    5. Sorry for the scare, Sillypeach, didn't mean to do that! I guess I chose the wrong term. I meant they haven't put out new dolls or news or such signs of life for months now! :sweat

    6. Hi everyone, this is Lindsey from MoC, I'm here to clear up any confusion about my role at MoC and at Aimerai. :daisy I am co-owner of Mint on Card, and I am the concept designer & co-owner of Aimerai. As concept designer I create the doll concepts and decide on the dolls scale, look, (meaning facial characteristics, make-up, clothing, etc.,), personality & background, non-clothing accessories, and so fourth. I am not a sculptor, but all sculpts have to be approved by me before they move onto casting & make-up. Aimerai currently has two very talented sculptors who are doing wonderful work, we are very lucky to have them on our team. :D

      I apologize for any confusion about my role with Aimerai, I did note my involvement on the MoC news page on July 28th, but I did not go into any real detail.

      http://www.mintoncardinc.com/dolls/info.php?toys=news

      Although I am involved with both MoC and Aimerai they are completely separate businesses with different employees. If you ever have questions about Aimerai in the future please contact Aimerai directly, ([email protected]), or contact your dealer if it is about an order that you have already placed. Aimerai is also on facebook and we check our PM's regularly.

      Thanks! :kitty2

    7. What an awesome job you have Lindsey~! XD
      I'm really in love with Scraps, I'm just arguing with myself on whether or not I want to get her full set, or do her up myself! :whee::aheartbea

      Editing to add, does anybody know if her outfit will be available separately in the future?

    9. I saw that last night and went straight into FOMO state (fear of missing out) so am putting Scraps on layby RIGHT now. It will be a long layaway as I'm moving country so should be saving.

      I took this photo of her at Dollism, and haven't been able to stop thinking about her since.

    10. I put a fullset Scraps on layaway last night! I was going to wait until the 15th, but apparently orders will be submitted on the 13th. A little daunting, but I couldn't let her get away! She's adorable and would go so well with Frankie...

    14. I got that message too - sooooo excited!
       
      #34 valee.anne, Jan 14, 2015
    15. I really hope I'm home when she arrives! I might see if they'll send her to where I'm staying on weekdays...

    16. I know my girl will be stuck in customs for a while so will hopefully be able to organise weekend delivery. I am super excited to see her in person again - she is amazing in real life.

    18. I am seriously smitten with this girl... she is so amazing in person. The detail and quality are simply perfection! I wish I could afford to get Glinda too... she is also stunning!

    19. Hi, I was just wondering if anyone knew of any resin matches to aimerai's sunkissed skin ... or have the sunkissed ones not shipped/arrived yet? It's just I really want Nick Chopper's head (sounds so serial killer doesn't it lol) =)

    20. Took Mary-Kelly out to enjoy the spring sunshine... She's a reserved, but simply stunning girl.
