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.

Batchix Dark Castle "Machina" (Alpha Edition) discussion part 1

Sep 18, 2007

    1. Forgot about this thread. Rho Beta got some wings in a doll meet swap last month.

    2. I got some miniatures from my mother-in-law including what looks like a little oil can and I thought it would be great for a robot pic.
      I have also just started a flickr group for robot dolls if anyone is interested in joining:

    3. I heard that another run of the Alphas will be available next year. I'm so hoping this will happen; I hesitated a little too long last time and missed out. I fell madly for one of these girls during the Austin doll convention last summer and they have the huge advantage of not requiring clothes and shoes. Someone please post some new photos. I'd love to see them!

      Edit: Uh-oh, I misread my informant's news. No more Alphas, but post photos anyway. :)
       
    4. Aw thats too bad, Im quite a fan of alpha! Though I have been holding out for Beta.. I saw sneak peeks of her once and fell in love.. just no word yet. My Epsilon is here waiting though :)
       
    5. And so...two long years have passed since anyone bumped this thread, but someone at last took pity on me and sold me their wonderful Alpha. I am having a little problem getting and keeping my girl's helmet on so it's exactly on her head and am wondering if there's a trick to it. My girl is white and is hand cast so the mechanism is a little crude.
       
    6. Any body have pictures of odd poses? I just bought an Machina off the marketplace a little while ago, and I want to see the possibility while I wait.
