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.

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 Mokashura Mini 40cm discussion part 1

Jun 2, 2014

    1. I'll report back once I've made these camo tights work!

      I get the feeling Dollmore is a bit lax on sizing, especially when you look at the shoes their idea of 'fitting' is not my idea of 'fitting.' They probably don't see an issue with the fit of the lusion wigs on mokashura.

      I've been looking at Monique also but they are very expensive for what doesn't look like particularly fantastic quality. It's a risk to shell out $25 or more for a wig that could be unusable due to the quality. Their smaller bjd wigs ate often nice but the photos of the larger sized wigs are a mess of flyaways! Or the nicer ones are reborn so are half cap; no good at all for my KoHyoo's long head!
       
    2. I am going to the UFDC National Convention in DC this summer and plan on bringing Mokashura with me. I hope to find some wigs for here there. I have quite a few large Monique Gold wigs and they are lovely. I do wish that Mokashura's head was just a tad smaller, Then she could wear American Girl wigs.
       
    3. The wig that Dollmore sent with my Moka fit well in my opinion. I don't see it on their website anymore though.

      I got this wig (Monique Doll Wig Charmaine Sz 12" - 13") which I simply adore. I got it from an ebay seller: absolutedollclothes on eBay

      Here she is wearing it:

      It's a mass of ringlets so it does have fly aways but I see her as a child and couldn't imagine a child without fly aways in her curls. haha
       
    4. This might not work at all, but has anyone got an SD sized head (9-10 inch wig size, not mature style SD) they could pop on the Mokashura body? I am really intrigued by this size, but the heads are just slight too big for my taste.
       
    5. my girl is not in yet but i do have an old volks sd sister and a Syo head i could try on if you are patient.

      more than 7 weeks have passed since ordering, so i am hopeing she will be shipped soon. Because eyeing my dollmore account every day to see if the status has changed is getting old, i need something new to do. Like checking the pages of the shipping company or my bankaccount to see if i have money for the customs fees that will hit me ;).

    6. @allanieew Oh that would be wonderful! I am mostly patient-ish, so will sit on my hands until your girl comes home :) Thank you for the offer of help!
       
    7. I'm afraid it won't work at all, The Mokashura neck/body is really huge!

      I thought about trying a Dana Koo head (11inch head) before my Mokashura arrived and it was much too small as well.
       
    8. Ah ok, I was hopeful because the neck is listed as 10cm, and SD13 girl neck is 9.5cm with SD13 boy being 10.5cm, and as most volks heads can go on either body without looking totally bizarre it seemed like it might be possible. I'll wait to see your verdict with the volks heads @allanieew , but thank you for your input @babytarragon :)
       
    9. Measured the neck and I'm getting closer to 11.5cm.

      Tried to get a pic of a 9inch head but the Mokashura has a neck piece that got in the way so I'm holding the head slightly in front here. So perspective looks off.

      Obviously this is only a 9inch head not 10inch but still feel like it's very strange, kinda pinheaded.

    10. Thanks so much for the pic @babytarragon , I can see how big the neck looks there! Ah well, I'll go back to the drawing board ^^
       
    11. Have you seen Baby Delf? Bambicrony 1/3 heads look amazing on them so maybe volks could too?
       
    12. Oooh, no I hadn't, I'll go have a poke around for that now. Thanks @babytarragon :)
       
    13. Little Easter lamb saying hello :)

      This is the wig I found on Taobao, marked as 1/2 scale for Spirit Doll and Angel of Dream. Completely perfect fit (much better than the Dollmore wig...)

    14. She is wonderful. I hope my Moka is as cute as your's.


      Tomorrow will be six weeks since I requested Iris at Fabric, Friends and Dolls order my KoHyoo Mokashura. Hopefully she will be here by the middle of April or at least the end of April. I will be knitting and crocheting for her and even thought I bought two Disney Animator Dolls, I am not confident enough of the similarity in their size to use them as a stand in for her. The one item I can't make for her is pajamas or a nighty. Touch wood she will be here soonest.

    15. I ordered mine a little over 9 weeks ago and still no news i am getting really antsy because i want her here so badly, but then again i ordered her with face up so she could actually take a while longer. I didn't even dare to order glass eyes since i am not sure what size looks best on her, i know she comes with 28mm but i usually set in smaller eyes.

      @babytarragon: your girl is cute as ever
       
    16. I found 28mm too big for kohyoo. She looked a bit spaced out.
       
    17. Yay yay yay bounce bounce bounce, she is on her way. Lol it's always when i think i can't wait any longer lets post about my long waiting time, stuff gets sent. I have this weird radar for it, lol. Bounces on........
       
    18. I am so happy for you and very jealous. I want my girl to get here soon.
       
    19. Ooh that was some timing! Looking forward to pics!

      Hopefully not long for your girl too Marti!
       
    20. I just thought of a name for my Mokashura, Podkayne. One of my favorite books growing up was a book by Robert Heinlein, Podkayne of Mars. It is the story about a girl on Mars.
