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. I initially sent an email with what heads I wanted to buy and then Denny said it would take x time and asked if I was okay with that. After I responded in the affirmative he sent a PayPal invoice that I payed.
      I got the PayPal notification after payment and then radio silence until Denny sent me an email with the tracking number a few days ago.
      No heads quite yet, but the number is live and appears to be updating as the package advances.

    2. Hi! Yes, so like @krystina said, I did not receive an email directly from Denny with tracking information. I was notified through PayPal that my order was updated with tracking information. It looks like some are getting emails and others are not, so I would keep an eye on both :)

    3. Thank you @krystina , @Dew_Drops and @Seafoam Shade, it should be all good then

      As to what people were saying about the pink. I recall the heads I have were of a soft pinkish shade upon arrival, but light enough that the pink has mellowed to an almost white over the years. They are almost the same color as MYOU's 'normal pink' (THAT SAID, seeing someone here at the forum's pictures of that very same hybrid, their body looked wayy pinker than the dim head they had...myou may have sent me a different color by mistake or older dim pink heads were already a different resin color than the ones made later in the way.

    5. I asked Denny when my order will be shipped and he answered me that they are going to send all packages within next week! Can't wait even more now :whee:

    6. I got an email too a couple of days ago! I've been redoing my old Larina's faceup in the meanwhile to make the wait a bit shorter ^^

    7. DIM lovers, I have a question on DollZone and DIM skintone compatibility. Which DZ colour is the closest match with DIM, the "normal pink" or peach one? I remember coming across some photos of DIM-DZ hybrids in the past, but can't find them now.
      Very much appreciate your help in advance!

    8. So, I've had DIM heads on both, and the funny thing is that my DIM Laia head at least is kind of right between the Peach and Normal Pink color. I would say they are both very close, good matches, so it depends more on the faceup and styling of the doll in my experience!

    9. Thank you very much for your reply. Oh god, that's not easy Would you say that one colour yellows less with the time, and if so, which one?
       
    10. My order arrived! The girls are here, the heads at least. Things I find myself saying in this hobby :lol:

      I will add a link to the box opening photos and a color comparison after I get everything labeled. Done!

    11. Well, I had my peach Dollzone body about a year, I think, and the color stayed the same! It's a very light color, like pinkish-white. Because Doll in Mind NS sort of "mellows" over time, I think peach is a good choice for that reason.

      My personal preference for my DIM Laia was NS-P simply because of her faceup, and I liked her body having just a little more pigment to it. When she had the peach body, it sometimes looked almost white, compared to the blushing and freckles on her face.

      I'll put pictures of my girl on each color body below so you can see.

    13. Denny is shipping out my GO finally, and I am very excited!

      What happened to the US GO thread? I can’t see it in the hosted orders section any more. :(

    14. I totally was not getting notifications for this thread. /o\ But popping in to say I received my heads (I got all three) last month, right as I got really sick. The other day I finally had time to do some headswapping with my Resinsoul bodies and I can confirm they make great potential hybrids.

      The RS normal is almost spot on as a match. I have a mellowed body and a brand new one that just came in, and the DIM NP is smack dab between those two. A faceup will make it completely unnoticeable. Also, RS Rong and Shi bodies are great proportionally, as well as the single jointed male body.

      I'll try to get some pics uploaded this week to share~

    15. more heads! hehehehe

      It's funny, I ordered a head from a different company from clover singing and got a dispatch notice yesterday on that and today I come here to find the DIM heads have also dispatched.
      I'm gonna be drowning in heads!

    16. Thank you all very much for your replies and photos on colour comparison!
      What a beauty she is:love

      Meanwhile, I heard back from Denny and he said he'd be shipping my order next week and it's among the last ones. So it means that all our orders are to be shipped next week the latest !

    17. Do mods remove GO’s that are finished? I think Dew_Drops got the rest of the USA GO orders out recently :3nodding:

    18. That might be it, I’m just used to threads marked “finished” staying up a lot longer.

      That’s awesome though, I couldn’t be more delighted that one last wave of DIM heads are out there!

    19. My heads arrived yesterday~ Laia is really pretty, and hopefully it won't be too hard to mod one into the open eyed version.

      I already had a Larina so I mostly got another just in case, since it seems like it was the last preorder for real this time, but I might use her for a Targaryen inspired dragon princess/queen, since I've wanted one for a while and @PhDolls Felix was super inspiring~

    20. Ah I just popped in as I had a feeling it was about time - I'm so happy for those who have received their heads already!! :)
      I haven't heard anything about mine yet (just checked PayPal and no changes) but it should be very soon :eusa_pray
      I'm thinking rather Myou or Doll Leaves body but I first need to decide whether this Larina is going to be another boy or a girl this time before I order anything :sweat
