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.

Alice in Labyrinth Mini Discussion

Jul 30, 2009

    1. The resin match is reasonable (an exact match isn't something I'm fussy about as real people are frequently different shades between face and body) as far as I've noticed.

      The poseability of the body seems fine to me - I haven't done much other than dress him and sit him with the rest of the gang, but the pieces move nicely and hold whatever position I've put them in. The body arived in pices with a bag of S-hooks, two ready tied loops of elastic and two pieces of bent wire for helping get the elastic through the pieces, it' very quick and simple and literally took me 2 minutes while I made a cup of coffee durign my break at work to string the body and attach the head. I was most impressed - plus the people at Minoruworld are friendly and very helpful (I messed up something in the ordering process and they sorted it out quickly and kept me informed about it).

      The obvious problem I have noticed is a(nother) feature of the the head rather than the body. The back of the neck socket protrudes downwards which effectively prevents the head from being tilted back (to raise the chin/look upwards).

      It's the same problem that RML heads have, so I'll probably take the dremel to it and mod it to get rid of the bit that gets in the way, like I've done with two of my three RML heads.

    2. Teddy Thanks so much for the quick and detailed response which is really good to know. I've been eyeing Minoruworld's Leila and AiL's Daryl and Aya for a long while now and still couldn't decide as there's so many others that I want on my wishlist :sigh
       
    3. Can someone please give me an advise? What eyes do you normally use for your mini Alices? 14 mm or 12 mm? Some comparison pictures would be just great.
       
    4. I use 12mm eyes for my Aya, for my taste 14mm eyes are too large although I might try my luck with 10mm ones.
      Sadly I have yet to find fitting glass eyes, the ones I have don't fit in her eyewells.

      Thank you for the answer. I have suspected 14 to be too large for them... Problem is I really want beautiful dollshe eyes for my Alice, and those tend to be smaller and rounder than most eyes of similar size. Maybe their 12 mm would be close to normal 10 mm. So if you actually try 10 mm, I'd be happy to know the result. Thanks again. ^^
       
    6. No pictures from my head with the 10mm eyes, but I got the preview pictures for my Face-up from pepper today:

      I'm so happy with my girl's look <3
       
    7. Very pretty! ^_^
       
    8. Roterwolkenvogel She's lovely. Don't forget to spam her when she arrives :)
       
    9. I second that!

      Teddy
       
    10. What a beautiful girl, Roterwolkenvogel! ^^
      Aya looks great with mature face-up. It's not common for MSDs.
      And my little Alice arrived yesterday, yay! But I can't paint her yet... Where's my MSC when I need it so much? T__T
       
    11. Thank you guys, I'm definiately going to spam her once she's home^^

      lilas Congratulations for your arrival - I'm looking forward to see some Alice spam xD
       
    12. Thanks!) She's my first MSD, and I can't believe how adorable she is. =3 AiL's done a great job creating their mini dolls.
       
    13. lilas: I think the AiL Minis are one of the most adorable MSDs ever xD

      Some Prudence spam provided by pepper - ignore her eyes, she'll get brown ones instead but the blue eyes were the only one I had at hand when I shipped her.

    14. Excuse the double post but I can't stand to see that thread so unactive.

      Finally managed to take a photo of Prudence (who miss her boyfriend since he's away to get a new face-up) but nevertheless decided to pose for some photos - rest of the shooting here

      In case anyone is wondering, she's wearing 14mm glass eyes since I still haven't found the perfect pair of eyes for her.
       
    15. Roterwolkenvogel, I love your girl! The outfit is great! She has presence.
       
    16. Here is my new AIL (with a Daryl head). I got her from another collector and just love her in Kimono.

    17. Nemesia thanks for the compliment <3
      Your Daryl is cute and I adore her kimono :D
       
    18. Thanks, Roterwolkenvogel. I feel lucky to have her.
       
    19. Good, new photos from Prudence and her new outfit:

      She looks pretty ghostly and somehow that style fits her very well.
       
    20. Can someone help me of real owner pictures with her default face up, like she comes just from the shop, Alice and Daryl please?
      Shops can show many pictures but it's not always what you get.
