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.

    1. Um... even the people who order dolls won't have a chance for kitties until 100 days after they recieve their doll, if I understood the update correctly. And that's if they remember to email the artist with pictures of their doll at that time.

    2. That's not a bad requirement, really. It makes the owner work a little for the cat.

    3. Well that's... their choice I guess...
      I wish they would just sell them little cats IMHO

    5. Just ordered and paid for my Om. I've been pleased with communications so far and hope the trend continues.

    6. I so agree though in my case it was an Abracadabra. Now the wait for him begins.

    7. I just sent in my order for Om!

      ...I hope there's one left :X.

    8. I had no trouble in reserving mine, so I'm sure you'll be just fine ^_^

      And now... the waiting. Oh, the waiting ;p

    9. What was the method of payment? And how do you contact them? Via mail?
       
      #29 acexkeikai, May 10, 2008
    10. Contacted via email, just like it says in the news thread, paid via paypal. No fuss, no muss, so far.

    11. ancatsidhe- YAY! You were right. Lovely Om shall be headed my way it seems #^_^#. Au revoir, tax refund. We hardly knew ye *cough*.

      Now, no more dolls for the rest of the year. I have two on order besides him >_>;. Well, I didn't buy but one last year. Lost time. Good season. Going to have to build risers for the doll family pics once everyone gets here.

      I'm naming mine Simon.

    12. I got an email today saying they've decided to send the kitty with the doll for international customers. X3

      I can't wait to see my Abracadabra and kitty. I hope I get a black one. <3
       
      #32 Safira, May 13, 2008
    13. yeah-- I thought that was very good of them (mostly because, while I like the kitty, I'm sure that I'd forget to send pictures after 100 days). Rather hoping for yellow myself-- I've always been partial to marmalades.

      Of course, we have no idea of what sort of lead time we're looking at, do we? My luck, he'll be shipped when I'm out of town for a week >.<

    14. hm...really some interesting ear parts...
      but...what's the 3rd one? deer horn or soemthing?
       
      #34 ice_icey2001, May 13, 2008
    15. I was kinda looking forward to sending in pics and then getting the kitty, but I shall accept insta-kitty and send pics anyway.

      I believe the third horns are water demon horns? Anyway, they look like the horns of the water demons in Disgaea II.

      Edit: I just realized my Om will be #12! Wow. So many dolls, so little time.
       
      #35 saintsavin, May 13, 2008
    16. I must have one of those kitties. It's the first kitty I've seen that I've really wanted. Wish they had 1/3rd sized dolls...argh! Oh well, I have an Abracadabra ordered. Still have to pay for it.

    17. i just emailed for an Om. the price is so good and that cat! if Om had elf ears i would totally be in heaven but regardless i love his face and i must have the cat. i hope i can get one still.
       
      #37 kathrynmary, May 13, 2008
    18. I realized I left a space in the email address. I resent the email. (Crosses fingers). I'm hoping that I'll be able to get that doll and cat. Wait...after checking, I didn't mess up. Oh well, I hope the receiver figures it out.

    19. How long has Camellia Dynasty been around? The body shots look good, double joints mean good posing.

      Just curious, rose-romance, perhaps, have you gotten to handle one?
       
      #39 thekittybox, May 14, 2008
    20. I just saw this in the news, and just love those kitties! I sent in an order for Abracadabra since he reminds me of my son, and we have a white kitty almost just like that (except ours has green eyes). So, here's hoping for a white one (or I'd love to trade with someone if I get something else that you might want - seems like everyone has a preference!)

      I have a couple of questions. This will be my first BJD that is not a tiny, and based on the size of 42cm, is this considered a larger doll or a mini? I was searching the rest of the larger section since this discussion thread is in the larger section to get an idea about clothes and shoes and such, and it seems to be for much larger ones, and I went over to the mini section and that seemed to be for dolls up to 45cm.

      As for the kitty, does anyone know if the eyes can be changed out or are they painted? It's hard to tell from the picture, but it sort of looks to me like they can be changed.
