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. I'm still hoping that the F-14 head will become available in LA. :eusa_pray It's a sumika head now, but I don't think it's been added to the LA store. :atremblin

      Please, please, please let F-14, F-13, MSD F-06, and MSD F-18 be available in LA! :eusa_pray

    3. Awww, I was really hoping SD F-26 would become a Sumika head ;_;

      I do hope that these new Sumika heads become available at the LA store... I may just have to get an MSD F-18 to be a sister for my Toppi :D

    4. I admit I'm surprised at how fast the MSD F-18 became Sumika.

      And yeah, I bet the heads do come to LA, it just seems like heads come to LA a 6 or so months behind when they come in Japan. I wouldn't be surprised if the LA Dolpa is when these heads are introduced. ^^; It would make sense since I believe the SD sized F-17 was first brought here for the NY Dolpa.

      That's odd about the 18/9 eyes o_O When I ordered my F-17 in 12/05 they let me get 18/9 and I know I've gotten 18/9 on SD sized heads a few times since then. ^^;;;

    5. You know I was just thinking that F-18 looked like Toppi! :lol: I think it's something about the eyes and the cute little nose. :chibi

    6. I know! :( I remember how we both want a little F-12 girl with robot wing ears. :aheartbea Well, at least F-12 is still available, even if we need to jump through a few hoops to get her. :daisy

    7. I'm very happy that the MSD f06 is available now - I have wanted one for a long time so this means I'll be able to order her in person someday ^___________^

    8. Yeah, see that's the problem. The LA store is a regular 'Sumika' but it's counted sort of 'seperately' to the Japanese Sumikas. When F-14 and F-17 were added to the Japanese Sumikas, they weren't added to the LA Sumika. F-17 was only just added to LA Sumika at the time of NY Dolpa 2 and F-14 has not been added yet. So I don't know when these Sato heads that have just become Sumika heads will actually get added to the LA Sumika. :(

      Yeah, I know what you mean. I ordered some dolls for people when I was in Japan and if 18/9mm was recommended for that headmold, they would let me choose 18/9mm. Like I ordered a F-26 on a SD10 boy and when I asked, she told me that 18/9mm was the best size and let me order it. So I'm guessing that they've come to realize how many non-MSD dolls are suited to 18/9mm and how often they are recommending it and allowing it to be sold, so that they decided to just make it official. :)

    9. I'm just afraid that they will only release the heads that are very popular with westerners. :( F-17 has always been a very popular head both inside and out of Japan, and now it has been released in LA. But I've hardly seen anyone outside of Japan with an F-13 or F-14 headed doll. I love both of them, and I'm worried that because they aren't as popular here, they won't be released in America. :atremblin

      But we shouldn't worry too much. :) I could be completely wrong and they'll be released as well. :daisy We can always hope! :thumbup

    10. Yes, when I ordered a F-33 for my friend Kim in March they recommended the 18/9 as well because the 16s left a bit of a gap. Ah well, it's nice that it is official now.

      I imagine it makes it more work for you since you are trying to keep track of what is Tenshi no Sato and what is Tenshi no Sumika only. I'd not realized those wigs were Tenshi no Sato only for a bit either since I've only placed FCS orders at Tenshi no Sato. lol

      I really like the 18/9 eye size, particularly for boy dolls, though sometimes I wish they made 14mm as well :sweat

    12. I was really hoping the MSD F-16 would become a Sumika head along with the SD F-26....
       
      #32 Chehime, Jul 14, 2007
    13. Thanks :D and just as a I was planning my FCS, it does change a few things ;)
       
      #33 PepperLooney, Jul 15, 2007
    14. I don't think they will. :daisy If they did, they'd either have to replace it with another head, or have to renumber all the heads after it, and that would cause a lot of confusion. *_*

      Plus, while MSD F-12 isn't the most popular head, it still has a lot of fans, so I think Volks will keep it around. :aheartbea
