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. Diameter. And unless stated, they are sold in pairs. Sometimes you can buy or sell a single eye. Soom offers the choice to buy just one eye in certain designs.


      It is also refered to as the "cute sit". Think of how anime school girls sit with their knees in towards each other and the calves kinda swing out to the sides.

    7. "SS" means Super Sculpey, as far as I know. "SSF" is Super Sculpey Firm.
      "BB" is Bobobie Doll Mall, sometimes also abbr. "Bb"

    9. I'm not sure if anyone has already said this, but you may want to add, 'Tender' to the list.

      I didn't know until earlier, that it meant the eyes where half closed...

    11. I believe I've also seen SS used to refer to sleeping heads, especially for luts dolls who come with open-eyed & sleeping head (so EL-SS is the sleeping head). but I might be misreading that.


      I'm wondering what the SA (nm; found it) and IM stand for on dollshe's dolls.

    12. Hi! I read over the list as a whole and then went and skimmed the posts, but I didn't catch if my question was answered.

      I'm still new to the hobby, and sometimes instead of "SD" or "MSD" I'll see "for 1/3 sized doll!" 1/3? It'll only fit their heads, wha? *_*

      Thanks in advance!
       
      #52 McCoy, Aug 27, 2007
    13. 1/3 is for SD sized dolls and 1/4 is MSD sized dolls
       
      #53 MysteryAya, Aug 27, 2007
    14. Yay! Thank you! :D

    15. ^^ Great list! It's been really helpful :)

      But I've got to add:

      Broke - condition affecting many BJD collectors due to loving their dolls too much. ^^
       
      #55 Gracewing, Sep 2, 2007
    16. LAWL at Gracewing..xD

      I have that condition ==

      What do they mean by one of a kind... YOU modded it yourself or is it a collection model from a particular company? Just to verify....
       
      #56 RiKkU_DA_THieF, Sep 4, 2007
    17. some companies release one of a kinds, whether it be a one of a kind mold or if they do a special make and outfit release. For example during the Volks Dolpa's they will have a bunch of their dolls (usually limiteds) with special make and a one of a kind outfit.
       
      #57 MysteryAya, Sep 4, 2007
    18. So we should just call modded dolls....modded? xD
       
      #58 RiKkU_DA_THieF, Sep 7, 2007
    19. Thank you so much! This has been so helpful~

      #59 kosmos711, Sep 20, 2007
