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. Is anyone else really disappointed by the magnetic elf ears on the new sculpt? I know you can hardly see them in the picture but they don't look like part of the ear at all. I hope they haven't replaced all elf ears with the magnetic ones.

    2. Not at all. Imagine different, larger elf ears becoming available? Or ears and horns? Or jewelry? Those ears are a promiss for the future! :)
      I was dissapointment in the face. Sweet - but nothing special. 13 in a dozen.

    3. I actually didn't even notice the ears :sweat But I admit, I'm so happy with this new girl! Sure, she might be a *little* bland compared to their old sculpts, but I still think she's beautiful and has the potential to look really amazing in the right owners hands. I was afraid DiM would go in a completely new direction altogether, but I can see the similarities between this girl and some of their old sculpts, so I'm optimistic we'll get lots of new pretties from them.

    5. I was so happy I was able to snag a BN half closed eye Larina head off someone on instagram to go with my original Larina. So she quickly bumped my DIM flowne off her body, and now they're twins! Can't wait for her to get a faceup!
      They are both on the DIM GSE body one with large bust and one with small bust.

    8. Did DIM change sculptors? These new heads don't even look like their style.

    9. I'm not really a fan of these new heads... seems like DIM is changing directions quite a bit.
       
      #189 Dew_Drops, Jul 19, 2017
    10. I think that the difference between these new heads and the recently discontinued heads is because of a return to an older style, not a complete change in direction. Before Doll in Mind's most recent batch of sculpts (the ones that were discontinued all together during the event period) their dolls looked quite different. All those dolls were removed from the website unfortunately, so it's not as easy to reference them, but I see some similarities to the older sculpts in these, which makes me look forward to seeing what is in store for the future!

    11. I had heard the reason for the discontinuation and aesthetic change was due to parting ways with their sculptor, so it's likely that's the reason for how different the newer ones look

    12. I managed to grab a flowne heasd which was back in stock on their website. I've wanted her forever and missed the sale announcements because I haven't been keeping up with the BJD world for a while. I'm so excited!

      I'm thinking about putting her on a loongsoul body (either old or new) does anyone have any thoughts on how well that would work?

    13. Hello Everyone,

      I'm on the same page lol I just notice they had Flowne so I ordered her today because I couldn't miss out on her again. I also want to put her on the Loongsoul body. Is it a good match?

      Edit: or has anyone tried on a girl Fantasy doll body? I saw on Flickr one on a boy body

      Thank you!

    14. @Ballet I used to have a DIM Laia on a Loongsoul normal pink skin body, the old small bust one. In my opinion, the hybrid works really well! The resin match is very good and so are the proportions.

    15. Thank you so much now I have to hear back about fdoll lol I have a 60cm one and love the way she poses but I don't know if it'll work proportionately

    16. There's a comparison thread called "DIM heads, bodies comparison" or something like that. You may find more info over there.

    18. I don't think I shared my Larina here, yet. I haven't really definitively given them a gender or name. At first I thought they would be a girl... I called them Nina for a while, but not I'm waffling. Maybe they are a boy? Hmm. Things to think about before I commission a faceup for them!

    19. @Dew_Drops What a cutie! Can't wait to see them with a face!

    20. Hey everyone! Just posting because I'm quite excited-I think I may have FINALLY found a body for my Sleepy-Eyed Larina head! I've been struggling so much finding a super short, mature yet chubby boy body for him, and I just stumbled upon DayDream's Little Prince body! Omg, it's perfect!

      I'm a little wary since I can't seem to find its neck measurements anywhere, but I compared the shoulder/chest/waist measurements to my Doll Leaves boy body which I have my other Larina head on, and they seem pretty similar, so I'm hoping the neck will also fit. Still, the body is so new I don't really want to wait around for other folks to start ordering it, plus it's soooo perfect and I'm impatient!
