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.

DiM (Doll in Mind) Mini Discussion Part 6

Jul 12, 2022

    1. Been kind of quiet,-bumping for pics:chibi My UD body just shipped for my Jullis head- I’ll post resin comparison when it gets here :XD: I couldn’t get the GuardLove body as holidays are close- maybe I’ll start on Larina and Flowne next year. I also got an Annelise head I’m excited to put together :D I’m thinking to make him a boy- the sculpt looks like he’s related to Lloyd and Dolce :blush

    2. I got my UD body today :D Julis looks kind of bobble head lol :XD: My WS Larina looks better on it TBH- I was able to attach her head piece to the body and the fit is perfect. The resin match is extremely good- the difference would be unnoticeable with a faceup. I do have a question- I’m trying to attach Julis head to the body but the hook seems to be too big to fit through the neck hole. Anyone who has a Julis- did you have to use a smaller S hook to attach it to a body? I don’t have any other MSD sized bodies so I don’t know it could just be UD MSDs have bigger hooks :XD:

      I’ll post pictures later today :3nodding:

    3. Can you put the hook on the inside? Maybe take ribbon, pull the body elastic through the neck to the inside and attach the hook?

    4. Ooo I will try that and post a picture. I think if I take the hook out from the body, set it in the head and pull the string through the neck, then attach it to the hook, it should be better then trying to slip the hook through the neck hole.

    6. The Guard Love body I ordered in their normal pink color came in : ) It's a very close color match and a good fit with the neck size.

    8. Congrats on your Flowne hybrid @Seafoam Shade! What a cutie :)

      Dvora says hi everyone <3 She's waiting on a new body and I am very excited about it! I also recently managed to find a secondhand Laia open head to re-shell her twin sister!

    11. @Seafoam Shade thank you! Not an easy sculpt to find these days so I’m really grateful!

      @krystina that’s the plan! I’m so predictable I’m very excited to have them together ❤️ I’ll be sending Iskah (Dvora’s twin) to Komorebi in March most likely!

    12. @Dew_Drops each Komorebi faceup I see is a work of art- I don’t blame you for being a repeat customer :XD: can’t wait to see Iskah all done up <3

    13. good to know this is a good hybrid option ^^
      What do you think of the body pose?
       
      • x 1
    14. Right out of the bag the posing is good. The body did come with a silicone disk to place between the head and the neck, but it looks fine and holds poses okay without it. I have some box opening and other photos in an album on Flicker: Guard love/DiM hybrid doll

    15. Thankyou for your answer and photos. I'm really tempted with this body. I'm considering between a loongsoul body but not sure if it's better in pose/colour.

    16. The Loongsoul body's sculpting looks very well done, but I don't know if the dollmaker offers the body for sale in regular resin or only in the translucent imported resin. That could cause color matching issues. It might be good to ask a distributor about it before placing an order. I think BJDivas and Alice's Collections both carry their dolls.

      I have another head from this last sale and I'm considering buying a pink Charm doll body for that one. Both heads were really pink when they arrived but have mellowed a bit and I'm hoping that the color will be a good match. Here's to hybrid doll research and wishing us both fruitful searches and good luck!

    17. Denny has emailed with the opportunity for a new group order! I've posted the details about it in News, since this time it seems rather open instead of the quite personal retirement message that was sent last time.

      Here's all the details.

      It's Larina, Laia, and Flowne again, but he is open to other heads if the demand is there. :)

    18. oh i was just thinking the other day that there's still a lot of interest... i think i'm going for the Larina. I wonder if we could get enough people together for Annabeth, too

    19. I have once again put my name down for Annabeth with Denny. We shall see if enough people email him this time.

    20. My wishlist would be Alpon and Yvaine who are probably a little too obscure.

      It's amazing that he's still up for doing this though.

      Of course I still need to get bodies for laia and larina so I should probably focus on that lol.
