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 Minimee Update & Talk Part 1

Dec 26, 2006

    1. No more Gackt heads. Ever. Sorry, those are the new rules. :(
       
    2. I still dream of doing a Cillian Murphy group order.... @____@ It'll be a long time before I can afford it, though.
       
    3. I'm pretty sure I will be ordering a minimee in the near future, I'm just in love with my mom's Johnny Depp!

      Here is a picture of him. I painted him :\ so it's not professional!

    4. Wow Johnny looks awesome Eno :D
      Goodjob on the faceup :D
       
    5. that would be freaking sweet!!!!! if only they still did msd. and i want to here poeple's anime ideas too. so i think i'll start a minimee anime wishlist.
       
    6. Naruto! that's cool!
      *wanna to join to this group already
       
    7. Hey there! :D

      I've got the same issue too!
      Well I've tried widened the neck hole of the head by sanding it.
      But seems like it still doesn't work since I'm also very new at sanding ^_^
      I'm using IP muscle body for the head. And later I tried shortened the neck just like you did XD

      Wow I heard that you're going to try mod it with polymer clay?
      Would u care sharing us how to do it?

      Many thanx!


       
    8. I received my Joey Ramone heads today :aheartbea many thanks to Denny and his wonderful team.

      I'm very pleased with the size and scale of the features and the heads. Now to find a suitable white resin Joey body! I hope the one I'm planning works.
       
    9. YES YES YES!!
       
    10. Really? Didn't see that! :(

      But I meant more of humans with animal ears and horns...
       
    11. There's just so many threads in the Group Orders section. I really think they should make a subforum or something for the Minimees.


      Sadly, that's the problem! I can't draw. But I wish someone who could would start a Group Order....

      Your Baios is the reason why I think it would be so neat to have more original character group orders. Not so much for personal characters, but designs everyone can agree on...

       
    12. Sorry, double post!
       
    13. I do too. They're so different from normal group orders - I think it's lame that we can't discuss things on the threads.
       
    14. Oh my gosh :D everyone's minimees are so great... Denny and his team do the most delicious work!

      I finally decided on my minimee and am gonna try and order her next week :)... I am so excited I can't wait... but I have a question to anyone who has ordered minimee before:

      1.) You get two heads by default per order. Do they have to be the same skintone or can you get one white and one normal?

      2.) I'm still a little confused about the celeb head limit rule >.<. So, say I ordered my minimee and got two heads. Then there's 8 possible recast left for the history of forever, right? Does that mean only of that particular sculpt, or of that celebrity totally (ie no one can order that celeb ever again even if it's a totally new mold...?) Also, I thought I read something earlier about the molds being destroyed after a certain period of time. Was I imagining it or is it true? Because say later down the line (when I had more money...) I wanted to order another head from the minimee sculpt I ordered...

      3.) I feel bad to ask since I know it's somewhere in this thread... but this thread is 184 pages long so it's kind of difficult to find... what are the new minimee rules coming into effect next year? Or... was I just imagining that...

      Sorry for my dumb questions T_T; I'm so confused...
       
    15. I'll try to answer these best I can to the best of my understanding. :3

      2.) Yes, that means in the history forever. There can only be 10 heads made of any celebrity, despite different facial expressions/elf ears/fangs/etc due to the fact that it's still using a celebrity's image to make money (which gets kinda iffy on copyright issues). I think you can get a mold destroyed on request if you order it, or it can be kept whole. Of this question I'm not completely sure, so I'll let someone else answer more definitely.

      3.) The minimee rules for celebrities, at least, are in effect as of December 11th. Those are that no more than 10 heads of any celebrity may be cast, and no more of any celebrity previously cast that have reached the 10 limit rule may be cast. I believe this is it for now. ^__^ Hope it helped!

      EDIT: [HERE] and [HERE] are the posts Denny made regarding the new Minimee Celebrity rules. ^_^
       
    16. Just so I understand this (as I see Cloud listed in Denny's post), this 10 head maximum includes animation "celebrities" as well?
       
    17. I'm assuming so, seeing as animation 'celebrities' are even easier to breach the copyright of. I can't even imagine the wrath Square Enix could lay down upon D.I.M. x_x';
       

    18. I'm curious as to what body you're thinking of? >3
      I've been having a hard time finding white skin that's as white as DIM's and the only one I think will work is a Bobobie body. *_* Do you know of anything else?

      Lycansea -- I had done some drawings a while back of different things to do to characters for possible MNM's... (If only I could still get an MSD head, I came up with the cutest Giraffe boy XD) if you have some ideas I can try to sketch stuff for you. XD I don't have the funds right now to join in a group, but I'd gladly lend my feeble art skills to you. XD Or anyone else for that matter. LOL.
       

    19. That's right, 10 maximum heads for 80&#37; minimees "celebrities" and 50% minimees of animation characters we know.
