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. NioSpica, Sadomina, ElvenMoonBlood16 thank you >v<
      I love his faceup too! Very natural yet so expressive. He seems a little sad so he officially became my "sad prince" (even if he will be a gardener, so "sad gardener " xP).
      I have finally found the perfect body for matching and proportions and as soon as I get my paycheck I'll order it! <3

    3. Suzunachi - I can definitely recommend Dollmore Model doll Male size for Dika's 70 cm dolls! They are mostly perfect fit~
      Also, when choosing shoes, check if the inner lenght is from 9,5 cm - 10 cm, then they should be fine. Dikadoll 70 cm dolls can be a bit of a challenge to find clothes and shoes for.

    4. Suzunachi - Sorry for the delay. Putting the jointed hands on was fairly easy for me; just pull the old hand taut, slip a chopstick or something through the elastic, and then replace the hand on the S-hook. The jointed hands are strung separately, so just be sure to hold them at the base if you need to pull on them.

    6. Thank you for all your advice! Unless something comes up, I'm very much considering ordering Bai Xuan. But I'm still not sure if I want his human head or vampire head...

    7. I have kind of a random question...

      Does anyone know the proper wig size for Dika's Molin (an SD)? I have one, and I have him in a 9-10 wig, because after conversion (from the 23 cm listed), his head was at about 9.05 inches. It fits all right and definitely stays on with the wig cap, but i'm thinking an 8-9 wig would really fit him better (his hair just seems very... big right now). However, I don't want to order a wig that's too small, and I want it to fit over a silicone wig cap. Will an 8-9 be okay, you think? I'm looking at Leeke World's wigs, by the way, if that's relevant.

      Much appreciated.

    8. Nah even my 70 cm boys wear 7-8 Is molins head really that big? maybe you should try a smaller size.
      Alos XD could you send me photos of your molin XD I'm thinking about buying him ~!
       
      #488 fusion_midnight, Aug 3, 2013
    9. His head is definitely a little big. Even according to the company listing, his head circumference and eyes are bigger than Bai Xuan (70cm), for example. XP I don't think I'd go down to 7-8, but I'm thinking an 8-9 should be fine. I don't know why he's such a wonky size, but oh well.

      You can see some pictures of him here; http://www.denofangels.com/forums/s...ate-(Dikadoll-Molin)&highlight=dikadoll+molin Sorry, they're unedited, as I've only just started attempting photography (and photoshop). x_x

      I'll actually be piercing his ears tomorrow, so I'll likely take a ton of pictures. I'll send you some then. ^^ (Sorry it's like 2 am here, so no pictures now, orz). But I can say that he's even more beautiful in person than on the website. :D And a very unique sculpt, too; I'd highly recommend him!

    10. omg you boy is beautiful! XD I will totally keep him in mind when dika has one of their amazing sales~!

    11. Thank you! :D I will.
       
      #491 TKCatsby, Aug 3, 2013
    12. Sorry, I have another question. ^^'' Can I maybe get people's opinions on Dika's normal yellow skin tone? Like, is it really yellow? Because I'm thinking about getting Bai Xuan in normal yellow as my next doll, but it looks... quite yellow in the company resin comparison shot. I want a natural-looking skin tone that's darker than the white, but I don't like the look of the pink (it's too pink for me). I just don't want him to be too lemony, and if he yellows to be even more yellow, well... that's awfully yellow. ._. Thoughts? Maybe some pics? (I did a quick search but I didn't see too many owner shots of normal yellow Dikas.) I don't really care about resin comparison, I'm just curious how people feel about it.

      Thanks.

      (Btw, I was unable to pierce my Molin's ears today, but I will post pics when I do. x_x)

    13. TKCatsby , their pink skin stays very pink only for one or two months. Then it becomes as a normal light human skin (light pink with a little bit beige). My Dikadoll Chi was prodused a year ago and this spring nobody trusted me that he has normal skintone.
       
      #493 Chukcha2, Aug 4, 2013
    14. Hmm... Okay, I'll definitely keep that in mind. Thanks, Chukcha2. I'll look up more pictures of Dikas in normal pink. Though I'm still leaning towards the normal yellow (I'm not sure why, I guess I just like that slightly tanned/Asian tone to it), so if anyone has an opinion, please share. I'm guessing that the normal yellow might mellow out to a more natural color, too, though, if that's what the pink does.

      *Edit: On a different note, I finally got around to piercing my Molin head today. :D

      His name is Elias. It's about time I shared a photo of him on here. x_x
       
      #494 TKCatsby, Aug 4, 2013
    15. I'm wondering the same thing :) I'd love to see owner pictures but I can't find any. I've got her on layaway with mint on card right now.

    18. TKCatsby, if you'd like the colour of the resin to be yellow tone but not too much, I'd suggest their ivory white, since it's yellower than their paper white but not as yellow as the normal yellow. I have Molin head in ivory white:

    19. Prism, your Aqua is adorable! :D

      greenery,       ah, thank you. That is a nice resin color (and hooray for more Molins; that faceup is quite beautiful :D). Aah, I still can't make up my mind, though. I want something that will contrast a little more with the pure white of my Elias, but now I can't decide between normal pink and normal yellow. >_> The normal pink is growing on me... I'll search for more owner photos...
       
      #499 TKCatsby, Aug 17, 2013
    20. Hello, TKCatsby, hope this pic helps a little, the body with my Vezeto from DollClans is a DikaDoll in normal yellow I just got today. I had the same doubts when ordered this body because he seem very yellow in photos, but as you can see the head I put on it is quite pale yellow too, so I took my chances, and I must say I don't regret it. DikaDoll normal yellow seems to picture very yellow, it is yellow in person but is kinda pale, and I find it really nice. I have no idea how it will yellow over time, we'll see :sweat. This is a comparison with some other resins I own (left-right): Dollshe oriental, Dollmore normal head on DollChateau normal pink, DollClans normal head on DikaDoll normal yellow, Soom normal (not the pinkish newer normal).
