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.

Bye Bye Alice Cherry Blossom! Discussion

Sep 6, 2008

    1. yes, just look at the new piggy, he is very pretty...charles own company made the new piggy and his face is so cute... I do love my alice, but this one is even more cute
       
    2. Oh I dont think I have seen the new piggy.
       
    3. His name is BuBu, and he's the same height as Alice and Billie! :D He's an orange pig, and looks to have a jointed waist, which is actually the only thing that I'm not to crazy about. Anyway, he's a limited edition of 50 and goes on sale on Charles' website on Friday. Here's the Discussion Thread for BuBu:

      Hugs, Juli :apig:
       
    4. I have Alice Cherry Blossom, Baby Julia, and Victoria, and they are all so lovely. The detail and feel of the resin and jointing is so amazing. I keep looking at the Bubu pics, but to me anyway they just cant compare to these lovelies. Sooooo wish Elfdoll would make more!
       
    5. The Bubu is cute but I tend to agree with you I like the others more. I dont know if it has to do with the coloring or the expression or maybe both !
       
    6. I also agree. ACB are the best little piggies :) It's because of this little piggie that i am now totally addicted to Anthro BJDs.
       
    7. Hehe heh really? I havent gotten the bug yet. I think their size is really great , it seems like there are so many things like props and such that you can get for them but right now I am still back to 60cm...
       
    8. I feel similarly, there was/is something special about Alice, that made her a must-have for me! I love little Julia too, and hope to get her one day. But until Charles created BuBu, no other anthros caught my fancy, and it even took a little while of gazing at the promo photos for him to grow on me. ;) It would be nice if there could be another release of Alice someday, but that seems doubtful as the Elfdoll/Charles Stephan Joint Project has ended. Then again, I don't think anyone could've predicted how popular these little piggies would be, so who knows what the future will bring. :) We can dream can't we?
       


    9. Oh no! So you caught the BuBu bug heh? There is this scripture in the bible that talks about 'the desires of the eyes" in other words the more we look at something the more we want it . I can tell you that has happened to me!

      I kept looking at alice and looking then I had to get her the second time she came around Now if I see something I like I wont keep looking at it I'll think " the desires of the eyes the desires of the eyes!!!" ahahahah my pocket book thanks me later.
       
    10. The "eyes" are a real problem when it comes to these little Piggies.....Each time I tried to resist a new one...they would just " niggle""' at my mind...I kept looking at them.....and one by one....they all came home to me. Sad but true.....BUT HEY...at least I kept the whole family together....
       
    11. Ok, i gotta ask. How many piggies do u have? :)
       
    12. well...I have Elfdoll Edward and Victoria, Alice and Billy, Ian and Julia...and then I have Coco Tribe Patrick ( Kira Kira) and I have CCC Bubu on the way as I write....a whole lot of Piggies....and I am busy getting them the house that they are demanding..... HA!
       
    13. Wow, that does sounds like a pretty big family :) I've been thinking about Bubu myself and i'm not even a pig person :)
       
    14. I am not a PIGGY person either....I am not much of an anthro person.....when I first saw Alice, I wasn't interested....I missed the first edition completely from disinterest...but then....I just started looking at her....and then I couldn't stop looking....just way out of my usual behavior as far as dolly purchases...after I bought her...I said...that is that...I love her but I don't need anymore.....until I saw Billy....then came the babies.....and once again I resister....but caved after looking too often. When the parents were produced...I said "not interested".....but Edwards tusks were too irresistable.....and after he arrived, I decided that he must not be a single parent.....so Victoria arrived......DON'T ask me....but I just love them to pieces.....even though they are quite demanding as a family.....now they want a home.....hope they are saving up....
       
    15. Ditto... I have never thought to much about pigs myself in real life animal form or doll form. My older sister loves pigs and when she saw Alice she told me she was going to take her from me! Joking of course and added if I ever needed a babysitter for her I could count on her lol...

      My husband fell in love with Alice as well . I missed the first edition but kept looking at her pictures even after she was sold out . Then I was showing my husband her pictures and he kept saying" Aww she is so cute... Look at those little legs and feet!" so I knew he wouldnt mind if I got her.:aheartbea
       
    16. Point is...the pigs are darn cute....my bank account has suffered from Piggy cuteness, goodness knows....and I would have never suspected that would have gone in this direction....but as my husband says..." CUTE" get her every time!!
      These piggies also have a LOT of personality......Edward is very impressive..tusks and all....and Victoria ia a flirt....with a twinkle in her eye....
      OBVIOUSLY...I love the whole family....
       
    17. You guys are very lucky to have such nice husbands :) Mine just think i'm a doll horder.
       
    18. hah that is to funny.. My husband recently saw some other small dolls I was looking at and said
      " aww they look so cute" and it made me want to get them for him! But thankfully they were sold out!
       
    19. My husband has no use for dolls....but he lets me get away with " murder" when it comes to buying dolls.....now of course, this is after we have finished raising and educating our nine children....as Johnny says "...at least I don't have to put braces on doll's teeth, or pay for them to go to college or get married".....we still have four unmarried children though so we are not " out of the financial woods" yet! Weddings...even son's rehearsal dinners are so nasty expensive.....
      ANYWAY....he tolerates my dolly vise ncely....I am so greatful....
       
    20. Well after 9 children I would say you should be able to have anything you want ! :sweat

      I dont have children because I am way to selfish of my time and because its a forever thing. Wow my hats off to you RoseAnn
