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.

Dollmore - Illua Doll Discussion Thread - Part 1

Jul 23, 2016

    1. Dollmore has now come out with that new extravagant Illua Doll mentioned earlier!

      Bonbon à la menthe : Petit Dahlia is limited to 10 and is $710
      Here is the page: Dollmore.net :: Everything for Doll & more

    2. I ordered a Chocolat Blanc Petit Dahlia on layaway and am halfway to fully paid!

      Also, there is a 4th petit Dahlia on Dollmore now ;)

      @nancy_schroeder_ca Thank you so much for the pics of your girl, I am super excited to get mine now! I am curious from the time you paid, how long was the wait to get your doll?
       
    3. @Studio404, I paid in full and got her in about three weeks! I think Dollmore must have started production on the first dolls before they announced them! I can't believe that will be a typical delivery time.
       
    4. Congrats! More future Illua owners :lol:

      @nancy_schroeder_ca Any chance we could see more pics of your girl while we wait? :D
       
    5. Well, maybe, but there are other dolls waiting and my photo time is limited at the moment!

      There are other with new Illuas! Maybe they can help!
       
    6. No worries! I'm just excited because I'll have my girl paid off in a month and a half haha

      As @Studio404 mentioned, there is now a 4th Illua Doll called Bonbon noir! She matches the new Trinity Elysia and Dollmore has posted an image that shows the Illua and Trinity size difference a little bit:

    7. I'd love a picture of Trinity, Lusion and Illua all together but the Trinity and Illua one is pretty helpful.
       
    8. So happy that nancy_schroeder_ca led me here! I am so crushing on this doll...I may have to have her! I sold my Lusion, but I still have my Trinity, I am wanting to recreate that photo for myself. I am thinking of the basic girl, but maybe the red head.
       
    9. Would someone mind posting the pictures from the Facebook group into this thread? I don't use FB so the page is locked for me

    10. I love every thing about her!!!!!!
       
    11. She is so gentle! I really whant this doll :3nodding:
       
    12. I just finished paying for my Chocolat blanc petit Dahlia! I'm so excited!
      I hope the wait isn't too long! I didn't get a faceup, so that should help :dance

    13. Yay! Congratulations!! That's exciting. Can you post pics of her blank face when she arrives? I'm really curious to see blank head photos of petit Dahlia to compare to big Dahlia!

      I'm currently waiting on mine to be made/shipped and the wait is killing me! I already bought a new wig and eyes anticipating her arrival.
       
    14. I fell in love with the Renoir's Blue Coat Illua and ordered her on layaway. I have two more payments but hopefully will get her in the new year.

      I vividly remember seeing this painting at the National Gallery in Washington DC when my high school took a trip to the US. Can't wait to see her in person. :)

    15. Yes! I was planning on doing just that :thumbup I don't have a big dahlia for size comparison, but you could at least get an idea about how the mold compares. (I also plan to make comparison pictures with some other dolls... msd, SD, baby delf, and I might have a dollzone 1/4 BB for the lineup as well, just depends on how soon the illua doll gets here!)

      On that note, does anyone have an idea on how long it usually takes Dollmore to prepare orders? I have a ordered blank Chocolat blanc Illua doll and a bunch of random clothing, shoes, and accesories. I am so impatient :lol:

      Also, just something extra that may be useful... the Illua doll shipping is something like $95 to the states :ablink: so if you are thinking of ordering, keep that in mind as it may be advantageous to order enough to be eligible for free shipping ;)
       
    16. I have been in love with that pouty face for years and decided to take a leap and ordered a Chocolate Noir Dahlia about 2 weeks ago. Looking forward to seeing more photos of other photos of girls as they come in!

    17. I adore the Dollzone BB body and would love to see comparison pics!! (I know that's talk for another topic thread but I've been trying to decide between the DZ BB an the Loongsoul BB - they're both such gorgeous bodies!)

      Dollmore usually had a 2 month turnaround, but I could take longer due to the current holiday season! Also I agree, the shipping cost was pretty high which is actually why I chose registered airmail this time for $40. The only time I've chosen registered over EMS previously turned out okay, and took 2 weeks so I'm hopeful!
       
    18. Congratulations! Lusion Dahlia was my first true bjd love so I know how you feel! :D
