Brava Bambi (Bambicrony) Discussion Part 1

I have a question! I looked through this thread for resin matches for peach puff skin and was wondering if anyone knows of a decent match? Has anyone tried AOD normal-Y?

 

I only have old AOD bodies and old Bambicrony resin before they changed to peach puff, so I'm no help sorry.

I finally got a dress from Dollmore I've been wanting for years. Just needed the right MSD girl for it!


Gallery thread here.

 

Emily is amazing, I am also waiting for one. She was love at first sight. I guess she is the cutest Brava Bambi face ever. I like Ellen too, but only in tan skin.
And I am also waiting for another tanned girl (a Ciao Bella Judy), and I really hope she doesn't have many issues, I saw some pics of Bambicrony's tan skin flaws and I am a little bit scared about it... u.u

 

kawaii, that isn't always the case, though. I asked Yoon if I could add a pair of eyes to my order. I never asked when it was going to ship or even requested a shipping date since I placed the order on December 31st. Yoon told me I couldn't add the eyes because my order was scheduled to ship on Friday. It didn't ship on Friday. With my other orders, I asked and got the mistruths as well so I think you get them whether you ask or not. It really wouldn't even be a problem if they informed the customer that something came up and they couldn't send the order when expected. Actually, Elfdoll is a company that always ships when they say they will.

I think the reason why Tsukidoll is concerned is because she had to wait from January 3rd until now to get just eyes and some clothes. I can understand a doll, especially one needing a face-up, but clothes and eyes?

 

gracie Yoon also told me without prompting that my doll would be shipped the next week and it wasn't for another two months, so yeah I can feel that pain. As for informing customers, it would be nice but I don't think they have enough staff to spend the time informing people of every delay so they have to deal with it in a "you ask us and we'll then deal with it" way, which is unfortunate.
As I said though, I've never asked other companies when an order would ship because I've seen too many cases of people upset that they asked and the order didn't ship when planned. Saves me stress if I just don't ask.

Tsukidoll, did you order ED eyes? Because they've been known to have large delays on ED eyes ever since they first started stocking them. They seem to be more of a pre-order than actually having the eyes in stock from what I understand, which would explain why you're still waiting for them. They really do need to alter their "please wait x amount of days" message at the bottom to be more accurate I think.

 

I'm sorry for all of you that have had to wait so long for your orders. I have to admit that I'm a little nervous about how long I will have to wait after I finish paying off Ellen. Could I see some Ellen spam to hold me over for now? Please?

 

That is exactly what I ordered all ED eyes and two outfits. I am really torn because I really want a ws Marion but I am scared to place another order plus I wont place it until my current order is shipped. Last thing I need is another delay if they combine my orders. I wouldnt care as much if they said hey look it can take up 3-4 months so dont worry but they quoted 30 days. My order was supposed to ship on the 6th according to Yoon but my order status says "before shipping" instead of shipped. And this is only after many pms. I love Bambicrony items so I really hope they get it together.

 

Sorry Orion, I don't have any new pictures. Simply too busy right now, but here is one of tan Ellen:

 

And here is one of the peach puff Ellen:

 

Tsukidoll, I don't think anything will change as far as the shipping goes. I do agree they need to change the info on their website to reflect the fact that the items are not shipped within the time frame specified. It would actually work better for them to say it was going to take 5 months and then when people received their orders sooner, they would be happier.

I don't think you have anything to worry about as far as getting the doll and really unless you were getting a left over tan, you should be fine. I understand waiting until your current order arrives. I did that as well. The only reason why my head and wig were held was because I was nice and told Yoon they could ship everything together to save Bambicrony the additional shipping. Otherwise, they probably would have been sent back in January. Still a long wait for an order from September, but sooner than I am waiting now. Unless you asked for them to be shipped together, I don't think your first order would be held up by the second. You would just have to pay shipping on a new order.

 

Thank you so much, gracie! They are absolutely gorgeous!

 

Ellen kind of reminds me of Maggie Gyllenhaal.

 

Maybe if Maggie Gyllenhaal was perfect!

 

She arrived!! Meet Alice (will take better pictures soon) Please ignore the date on picture, i need to change it on my camera :P

 

Congrats! She's beautiful! I love the resin, it seems like it's almost glowing!

Ok so after nearly driving myself crazy over whether or not I should keep my tan Ellen (after the horrors I've experienced dealing with BC) I decided to keep her, but change her character to another one I wanted to shell! My Ellen (formerly known as Momo) is now Luxe! I have celebratory spam!

I still doubt I will ever order from Bambicrony again. I may pick up a floral white girl off the MP if I find one I love, but I'm done with Bambicrony. I will have to work on Luxe a lot since her seams look like skid marks and the sanded spots are light enough to bother me. since I'm doing the work myself, I hope I can be done by the summer.

 

Gracie, I hope I can get an Ellen someday. I love the tan skin version, but this pic of the peach puff skin is so adorable.

You are right, Bambicrony has so much cute dolls, it's almost impossible to decide wich one I want for myself. XD

 

Thank you ajuli

Finally, I received the notice of shipping today so Katherine will finally have her own body. Still not sure why they couldn't have stuck in another pair of eyes with the order since it took an extra week for it to ship.

 

Hi again,

Gosh, if I read all the stories here I'm happy I allready got mine without any problems, it always was a pleasure doing business with Bambi crony and still is.
Hopefully all your dolls/items come in fast now!

Turbow, your girl is pretty with red eyes

Guls207, love your Luxe

Sushi77, your Alice is so sweet

Gracie, your girls are so lovely

Here is one picture of the fairyserie I made, James is in it too, follow the link if you wanna see him with Yentl:

Well, I am still waiting. My order now says its before shipping but it has not shipped. Yoon told me it shipped the Friday before last. I would not care if I didnt have 10 people waiting for it.
I am not a tan doll fan so I would not be ordering a tan girl. I fell for Marion65's Marion and I have been pinning for her ever since. I want her in white skin and they have free shipping for orders over $300 again.
At this point I am just going to wait and see what happens. I do not want to order from Bambi until they fix what is going on with their time frames. It is too bad they are having issues because I really love their molds. Plus they are revamping their Ciao Bella line so maybe that is a sign for me just to hold out.

 

Thanks Marion! I love how Yentl looks just like the princess in the snow globe!
