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. Thanks! I'll go for 16mm then - I tend to prefer the smaller end of the acceptable range. Now to search for suitable rainbow coloured irises. :)This bit is always fun

    3. In my Ban head I have Dollzone 16mm and they look really good for size.

    4. Thanks! :) That looks pretty sweet. I'm going to go ahead and order myself some Safrin Rainbow Gradients in 16mm for this guy (...as well as a whole bunch of blue eyes in the 10-12mm range for a very fussy doll... But that's another matter! :sweat He's a Bowie MNM and of course needs the whole dilated pupil schtick...)

    5. I have the Lan head and anything from 14-18 seems to work on him

    6. Oh man, bit late to the Akagi party, but I love that slender body. & particularly smitten with Ling & Yusri. Though Hugues reminds me a little of Chiwoo so not gonna lie, can't stop looking @ him either.

      I was wondering though, if anyone had tried different hands w/ the Akagi body?

    7. I'm using Little Monica Harmony hands (the bigger ones, they have 2 sizes) on my Akagi 66cm body because I don't like the long nails on their hands :/. I don't have a good photo of it, but here's one from when I was doing head swaps with a Migi Ryu. You can see how the hands look relative to the body.

      Here's a photo closer to the wrist so you can see that the hand joint sits nicely in the wrist joint :)

    8. On average you guys who ordered from Alice's Collections were saying how your boy got shipped out in like, 2-3 weeks... and I ordered my doll a few days over a month ago and I'm getting restless xD GAHHH I WANT HIM SO BAD WHY DID I HAVE TO ORDER HIM WITH A FACEUP!?
       
      #188 Raguna, May 26, 2014
    9. I didn't order mine with a faceup, and it took 2 months for Alices Collection to ship it out, hopefully yours will arrive in a similar delay!
       
      #189 DarksStars, May 26, 2014
    10. Ok NOW I have a good idea of how long it'll take, thank you! Some people were talking about how it took a shorter time so I was getting a little anxious xD I always get excited because I never get to order too many dolls so I can never stand the wait and it doesn't help that my friends keep asking about him!
       
      #190 Raguna, May 27, 2014
    11. It might take a little longer with the faceup, but yeah. I think that their production time has gotten a little longer than it used to be a few months ago because they must be busy with those practices head that are getting popular XD
       
      #191 DarksStars, May 27, 2014
    12. Awesome! I'm not particularly a fan of the Akagi nails either. Thanks so much for the info/photos cian :)
       
      #192 acidquill, May 27, 2014
    13. No problem. Just thought I'll add that LM is slightly yellow based where Akagi is pinker tone but the difference is very slight.

    15. Tsubaki's completed. Those temporary wig and eyes really suit him [​IMG]

      Azusa's second faceup. I plan to get him a body but now he had to wait after I get DF-H Xiangyi and Duanyu first [​IMG]

      Those are his photos as a full doll. He was already available at Akagi's store and some dealers on taobao. Don't know why Alice's Collections haven't updated.
      I regret that i didn't order him together with You Yue and Ban because of his old photos. I'll upload photo when mine get home :)

    16. Nice ^^ I'm collecting practice heads for now so I can try to get the hang of faceups, but I'm still picky because I know I'm the type that may end up wanting to keep them and my girl is in need of her boyfriend haha.
       
      #196 ChibiBel, Jun 11, 2014
    17. aww he's adorbs <3

      Where did you get his shirt? I've had a hard time finding properly fitting tops for the 66cm body. Have one thing that fits nicely enough in the style of what your guy is wearing but that's where my luck ends. I have one shirt that's way too big and one that's too short but fits perfectly otherwise.

    19. Doll-Family H is having a sale on the Jointed Hands, so I decided to grab some for my Akagi body. I have no idea if the size and resin will match though, so I'll keep you folks updated when I'll receive them.
       
      #199 DarksStars, Jun 18, 2014
    20. Oh awesome. I've been considering jointed hands.
