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.

Angel Of Dream (AoD) 60cm Discussion - Part 2

Jan 20, 2015

    1. She is really cute- she looks like a grown-up Shirley Temple. Contact AoD and tell them of the mix-up, and see if they will send you the right bust, at least.
       
    2. thanks cirquemom :D I contacted Alices about the issue, since I bought her from them - they said that AoD 'pink' is very pale and not very pink, and their 'yellow' is quite dark? I have only ever bought 'pink' from them though, and normally it does fade to a cream fairly quickly, but is pinker when new. So maybe I got an older one they'd had a while, since there's not a hint of pink in it, but also it's not a 'dark' yellow. I have no yellow AoD to compare it with, so have no idea.
      I thought about asking for the smaller bust part, but it won't match this resin, more than likely, but mainly I hate restringing so I'd never use it! I'll just accept her as is - I can't be bothered to chase it up further. But Alices were quick to respond and happy to help, so that's good.

      Yes I forgot to say - I got the bunny in the event when I ordered my girl, and it is an amazing little thing - pics on my flickr - I have no idea about the turtle but I expect it to be just as beautifully made. And as cirquemom said in her post - I also forgot to mention I've had a huge range of dolls too, and AoD are just as good as more expensive ones. The resin may be a little shinier but it doesn't bother me personally - you can always spray it with MSC if you want a more matte finish. Posing and engineering of the dolls is fantastic - better than my more expensive dolls in some cases.
       
    3. I would like to create a hybrid doll. The angel of dream body and doll chateau youth heads. In white
      resin. Hope this combination will work!!!
       
    4. @Kirby2165 the neck on the head might be too small. I hope you check the measurements out first.
      I got my AoD/DL hybrid to sit in the yoga pose he has no mobility joint but holds this pose very well. He is not that loose. I'm proud of him.

    5. Thank you for that information!!!
       
    6. My AoD dolly has been pre loved, i was going to redo her faceup at some point but i realised she is suffering from the dreaded yellowing of resin, is it safe to use the hot water method to reduce yellowing on this doll brand? <3
       
    7. I wondered if anyone could offer me some advice, my dolly is an AoD Zi Yuan, previous owner lost her COA so shes effectively worthless in monetary value but i love her all the same. shes yellowed a lot i think due to age and she has quite bad damage to her face because her previous owner accidentally dropped her.
      have you guys had to repair any dolls with facial damage ?
       
    8. That isn't necessarily the case, even a doll without CoAs are of value. As far as I know AoD dolls weren't recasted so that shouldn't be a concern. You can use any of the de-yellowing methods on AoD bodies.
       
    9. my first aod boy did not come with any kind of coa. he's 7 years old now :3
       
    10. hi all :) sharing you my baby girl Aeris (Ziyuan), shes with me for 5 years now and shes my first doll :)

    11. She is beautiful! I have a ZiYuan too! She is one of my favorite dolls and Angel of Dream dolls are such nice quality. They are very under-rated in my opinion.
       

    12. Hello! Sorry, this is a very old post, but I was wondering what size eye he is wearing. I've recently put an order for AoD Gelei, and there's absolutely no information about her sculpt...I'd appreciate your help! Thank you. @elve
       
    13. hi! Well Gelei's eye size will likely be different - she may have a smaller head too. She will come with eyes anyway, but my Kim isn't wearing the ones he came with. I've sold him long since, but I think they are some huge glass eyes I got free with an impldoll idol doll - way too big for that doll I think they were about 20mm. Ideally have a few different sized eyes in stock for any new doll as eye size can completely change a doll's personality - that and wigs will transform a doll so much - it never ceases to amaze me :whee:

    14. Hi Everyone and AOD lovers.

      May I ask anyone here have a picture of AOD Girl with Giant bust?

      I red some post here and I think AOD is a good quality that's why I ordered to them my very first SD body...

      Hope someone have that AOD Giant bust, I want to see the function of the body and how her hands can touch her face. Thank you. :)

      This is the angel of dream Gelei with boy body. He was ready to ship after 1.5 months, but because of some shipping f*up, it took 3 weeks to get to here. I was very surprise by the quality of the resin. It was the heaviest, smoothest resin ever!

    17. Wow, I can't believe what nice these dolls are to look at! What cool photos, everyone. However I have managed, I've not given this company thread a look before. I'm very impressed with these dolls. I certainly have a lot to read to catch up! I always feel so awkward coming into a new (to me) company thread. It's kinda like barging into a room where a party is already under way.

      Well, I was doing a <dangerous> thing by browsing around the site on Alice's Collections and came across Hui Xiang with the pregnant body. I really, really like smiling dolls a whole lot and she caught my eye. One of the problems I've had with some of the female dolls is the ribs showing, which I don't really see on the pregnant body but it's hard to tell. I also can't tell from promo pics if her bust is exchangeable with the other sizes or not. So, I thought I would ask you fine folks if anyone owns her or the body with the pregnant belly? If anyone does, or you know someone who does, any chance you could show me some more pics? I'm dying to know what the rest of her looks like. Although the tummy and smile alone might make her the next doll purchase, some more info would help a lot. Thanks, everyone!
       
    18. I know what you mean! But it's a party where everyone's welcome! Or at least I hope so - most of the time I'm metaphorically hanging out in the kitchen...:sweat

      I have a Hui Xiang and she is a lovely sculpt. Surprisingly the smile does not get old and looking at her does cheer me up. I can't answer any questions about the body though, sadly - but I did notice it has thigh joints and the arms are different so I'd be interested to find out if they are updating the old body too. I'm not keen on ribs showing either - when I got a replacement bust for my AoD body I did attempt to sand out the exposed ribs on the old one - however that is another project that has been abandoned until summer.
       
    19. @rubydoll Thanks for the info. I have a favorite company that's not too popular, so I have one 60cm girl I found here on the MP that I couldn't resist. If Hui Xiang comes home to live with us, it will be a lot of fun. Other than my 60 cm girl, I have all smiling child dolls, handsome man dolls or neat fantasy or anthros. I think she would fit in well with the smiling children. She might do well to be the neighborhood babysitter. :) She's certainly on my wish list, just not sure yet if she's next on the saving/purchasing list. I'm inching that way though.

      Edit: I found a photo on the non-English site! It is a small photo, so I might have to bring it up on my tv later.

    20. Ooh, thanks for sharing the photo! It's a really nice body - the pregnancy bump looks natural and so do the larger breasts - I'm wondering if the middle part of the body is interchangeable with the older body - and therefore the bust parts are too. The arm and leg joints are different tho so maybe they have created a whole new body.

      The idea of her being a babysitter for the children is so cute! But what about the handsome men?
