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.

Argonautica Doll/ArgoDoll Aliens (Prias & Kios)

Nov 10, 2014

    1. Those look absolutely stunning.

      I think I'm doomed if the artist ever opens up another order period. I figured out who this guy is and he is indeed an SD sized guy not an MSD *sigh*. It's still the Prias sculpt I want and in the deep blue, but... yeah. Add another doll to the list.
       
    2. Oh, did you guys see that they now have preorder open for "Little Kio" and "Little Pri," which are the same as Kios and Prias, but 28cm tall? :D
       
    3. Seeing as how I missed out on the SD sized one, I'm really trying to talk myself out of getting one of the tinies as an Xmas present to myself (the pre-order is open until November).

      And just as an FYI, I emailed the artist to ask if there would be another pre-order for the SD sized ones and she said no *sniff*.
       
    4. Really? No more SD ones? I'm surprised by that! And disappointed. :(
      But yes, I saw the little ones when they were announced, and got a little Pri on order right away! In the deep blue again, of course. ;) I just love the look of it.
       
    5. I don't know that she'll never do another SD sized doll, but I'd specifically asked about another run of Prias in SD size and she said there wouldn't be another run. Maybe if enough people got together to petition her to offer them again (and I'd soooo put my name on that list), she might consider it. That's just me talking out of my hat, but one can dream, right?

      The smaller Pri is so very tempting. I love the deep blue transparent resin and the sculpt (regardless of size) is just so unique and amazing. I have a doll I want to order shortly but at the same time, I have a lot more saved up in doll funds than I need to purchase him so maybe that's a sign I should go for the smaller one. (I am so talking myself into buying Pri, aren't I?)
       
    6. She actually does have another SD-sized doll in the works, if you check out her Flickr. It's a human female.
       
    7. I'm SOL then as I don't collect girls. The head for Ifit is lovely though. There's so much character in the heads she does that even blank, they speak volumes.
       
    8. Darn, well I was hoping for another run of the big Prias and Kios. :( Makes me REALLY glad I got Kios when I did!

      Just dropping by to say my Little Pri arrived yesterday! :dance He's an even brighter and more vibrant blue than my Moana!
      He needs a name...
      And he's entirely too cute, and makes me want another!

    9. They are gorgeous, aernath. I'm really sad that I missed the opportunity to get SD sized Prias *sniffs*. I am really contemplating getting one of the smaller versions as a sort of... consolation doll for having missed the other. How long did it take between ordering and shipping/arrival at your house?

      Is your Moana the female version? I'm having a tough time trying to decide on just what to get (male, unisex or, *gasp* female) since the character the Prias was going to be won't work for the smaller version and I'm actually thinking of going for a Little Kio instead of Little Pri for this new character.
       
    10. How did I miss these adorable alien dolls???? I love that blue color! So vibrant and beautiful!
       
    11. Sorry, internet went out for a couple days...
      I ordered the 28th of May, so about ten weeks.
      I got my Moana as a male. The face/sculpt is really feminine though, and I have a tough time seeing him as male, but the Prias was sold out when I went to buy him. I'm hoping the faceup and body blushing will help him look more male. Plus, clothing. Gotta work on clothing the poor guy! lol

      I couldn't pass up the blue resin! That was what tipped me over to getting one. There aren't any other dolls out there like this. Yet.
       
    12. I am sucker for coloured resin and when you go and make that coloured resin transparent, it takes real restraint for me not to throw my money at the company. I don't think you're making this any easier for me to resist. Not that I expected a fellow collector to help me say no to adding more dolls to the horde....
       
    13. I never did get the Kios that I had wanted and now it seems that they are discontinued. She is beautiful but never fit into my other plans. But Ifit is completely in line with the rest of my Eastern European dolls who are becoming my Kievian Russ/Viking horde. Not sure if she goes on this thread but didn't find a thread for Ifit. Anyway, I ordered her and she will be Arne's daughter, Lyudmila Arnesdotter. I'm really looking forward to getting this beautiful girl home. I already ordered 2 wigs and a gown by the amazingly talented Iryna Ivakhnonko for her.

    14. I got my shipping notice for Ifit. I wonder if anyone else is getting her?

      My Ifit arrived. Isn't she adorable? Her name is Lyudmilla Arnesdotter.
       
    16. Ifit is gorgeous! And you can totally discuss her in this thread - when it was started, Argodolls didn't produce any (full) larger dolls other than the aliens, that's the reason it doesn't mention other big dolls in the title. But it's fine to talk about/share Ifit and Mr. Test in this thread.

      And here is Lyudmila all dressed up. The dress is from Whispering Grass on Etsy.
       
    18. Oh wow! She looks great! Wonderful faceup and what a gorgeous gown! Congratulations!
       
    19. We opened pre-order for Kios and Prias 1/3
      until July 15, 2018

      Now they are also presented in new colors - deep green and dark green.
