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. Ahh, I see...Hmm, might as well just save myself the money. XD
      Did you buy her with the default faceup? If so, is it worth it?

    2. i didn't just 'cause i like doing my own faceups. i was tempted by the default shabee though, she is so cute. if you can do your own or know someone that you want to do it for you then go for blank. if you can't paint your own and don't want to send her away after she arrives then go with the default. i ordered my first bjd with a faceup just so i'd have one usable right away.

    3. Hmm, thanks for your help!

    4. Jeez, sorry, I hate to ask so many questions (I'm so new to this, please forgive me...;-; ) but may I ask some things about size and options for them on Dollmore?
      Umm, can they do things like fitting in a teacup or teapot?
      Are they enormous looking in person or small looking? (Like- do they fit in the palm while sitting?)
      Do they pose well or are they not so great for posing?
      Which of the options Dollmore offers is really worth the extra? (Example- faceup, sanding, etc)
      What other clothes seem to fit them?
       
      #144 Feli-chen, Nov 25, 2011
    5. they definitely can't fit in a teacup. though if you turn it upside down it would make a great seat. i'll try to take a picture of ellyce next to something tomorrow so you can see scale. (my battery is charging right now and it's dark here anyway) if you have something specific you would like to see her with lmk and i'll try to accommodate

    6. I was just asking if it could sit in a teacup...^^'
      Humm, nothing in particular I can think of- maybe just some joint detail and size comparisons to everyday objects and/or other dolls?

    7. You don't have to apologize; we were all new once. :)

      Dear Dolls are 26.5 centimeters tall, which is about 10.5 inches. Barbie dolls are 11 inches, so picture a Barbie doll but about twice as big around and much heavier. (Ever since I started this hobby, I have to keep a yardstick next to my computer!) They can sit in your hand but you can't fit their whole bodies in the palm of your hand like you can with some smaller tinies.

    8. Ah, thanks! That makes the size a lot easier to picture.

    9. I've ordered an Apple with face-up as well as a carrot wig and Vanessa dress from the US Dollmore Dealer Fabric Friends and Dolls. Apple's going to look quite old fashioned. She definitely needs a rename - I keep thinking of poor Gwenneth Paltrow's kid every time I say her name. Hopefully she'll be here soon, she's in transit to Australia.

    10. Happy to find this thread. I just ordered a Narang, although the order won't go in until April so it's going to be a long wait. I ordered her with a standard face-up. Iris at Fabricfriends is wonderful on answering all my questions. I appreciate this.

    11. How do you find the posing ability of the Deardolls?
       
      #151 janquog, Mar 31, 2012
    12. i had to restring mine 'cause the elastic she came with was horrible. but she was easy to restring (my first one too) and now she poses beautifully!

    13. My PoPo head arrived today! She is adorable! I temporarily put her on my Iplehouse BID body. I'm hoping to give her a faceup this weekend.

    14. she looks cuter in real life :)
       
      #154 auntbear, Apr 13, 2012
    15. Yeah, I couldn't really get a great photo of her today, but she is absolutely adorable and she has so much character even without the faceup. I can't wait for her to get her real body and give her a faceup. The Iple body doesn't work AT ALL. The neck is waaaaaayyyy too big. I just put her body on layaway so it will be a couple of months. I didn't really plan her out very well, but then Dollmore is so fast. I ordered her head on the 4th and she came today. Now that's fast!!

    16. i think dollmore is the fastest company out there. none of mine have taken more than a couple of weeks to arrive.

    17. Reviving this thread to say that my Bomi girl arrived yesterday. OMG, so cute and little! I just had to tell someone. It's raining and I probably cannot get a decent photo of her, but maybe soon.

    18. glad to see someone else here. would love to see pictures of your girl when you get a chance :)
       
      #158 auntbear, Sep 30, 2012
    19. It's still raining here and impossible to get a good photo of her, but it will clear up in a few days. She really is the funniest little thing. She's a bit floppy at the moment; I haven't done much with her except put her in a little chair. Maybe today I'll tighten up her strings and see it I can get her head to stop lolling around.
