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.

Doll Family A Discussion - part 2

Jan 12, 2015

    1. Here is answer from Alice Collection about normal and imported resin. To whom it may be interesting. They say also that normal resin is good quality too.

      "Imported resin is made of better quality raw material, it feels better and is less fragile, it looks a little transparent comparing to normal resin, and when making dark skin dolls, the sanded area (such as seamlines) of normal resin will become whiter, while imported resin performs much better and usually don't leave whitten areas after sanding.

      The color of their normal resin and imported resin are almost the same"

    2. Are the wait times for DF-H really like 5 months?
      I'd like to get a Zhenluo, but feel like I might pass on that if the wait will be that long. Granted I'm not getting him with a faceup, so it might be a little less.
      Maximum I've waited for a doll (just a head, actually) was about 2 months, and I've bought from a number of very different companies, so 5 months is a bit...yeesh. :nowords:

      I may email Alice's Collections about it, see if they know or can ask about the wait times.
       
    3. I have allready asked. :) Yes, waiting time is about 4-5 months.

    4. Yeah, I asked yesterday too. They said about 4 and a half months + the shipping time will make it around 5 months. :/
      Looks like I'll have to pass on getting him. Back to the drawing board >w<
       
    5. Heh :) i have been used to wait more then 4 months in this hobby. For me it is not so long ;)
      Zhenluo is handsome! I will go for Lou Yunci.
       
    6. Have you gotten yours yet? I’m still waiting on mine.
       
    7. If anyone wants to see owner pictures of Beilan, I've found some on Instagram.

    8. Oh please do share :D
       
    9. Where do you all get clothes that fit your boys? Because I'm having trouble finding anything that will fit mine.

      Got a hybrid boy with the 3 piece 65 cm body from doll family H.
       
    10. I just have mine in 70cm clothes. To be fair, he wears shorts, so I haven't had to deal with the issue of too-long pants.
       
    11. So, I just ordered my first (complete) doll, a DollFamily-A Max. I haven't been able to find any blank photos, or customer photos at all. Has anyone seen this sculpt around?
       
    12. @strangesolace
      I usually search instagram for owner photos (have some here!) But there are not many indeed
       
    13. @RedMoonlight Thanks so much! Yeah, I'm not sure if he's a newer sculpt or what. Hopefully I'll be able to take lots of pictures and help contribute haha
       
    14. I ordered a Takumi Kazama head in tan early last month and was wondering if anyone knows wait time for heads? I assume maybe 2-3 considering complete is around 5?
       
    15. That makes me wanna cry so hard

    16. Anyone able to dig up owner photos of the sculpt Alice's calls MX? (And confusingly Legend Doll calls it Max, which can't be right... Max is smirky, MX is... Pouty? )

      I kinda think it might be the younger sibling to Dollshe Saint sculpt I've been looking out for... But the company photos gorgeous as they are either show the sculpt styled up fairly specifically, or completely blank.
       
    17. I've decided that I'm getting DFA Youxi next. He's the perfect sculpt to be the boyfriend of my DFA Max character. Once again, I can't find any owner photos. I don't know why, but I always seem to fall for dolls without any owner photos.
