Dollstown Elf Body Discussion - Part 2

@Alice80, I'm sorry you missed out on ordering Maru. When I was looking and trying to decide in November 2021, I noticed that Maru was both discounted, and -- only one resin color available (Fresh), which I figured was a tip-off that she would be discontinued. I'd decided to get Sarang and a complete Elf body, and added the Maru head at the last minute; what's one more head, lol!

@Teddy, that's a darling dress on your Peggy; so mid-20th century little girl-ish!

@JinCincy, your Elf girls are so pretty! I especially like Soyu's expression; very knowing!

 

Thanks - I'm aiming for late 1920's/early 1930's for Peggy and her sister but there are only so many dropped-waist dresses I can tollerate when it's not a style I'm fond of. I really need to get around to making them shorts and sleevesd shirts so they can be properly piratical, but I'll get there eventually - I've made their red knit caps.

Hey guys! I'm interested in ordering a Dollstown Soyu in pale tan. I didn't see the option on the site so I emailed them. I'm waiting to hear back but has anyone ordered a pale tan recently?

 

This is Lavinia, my Soph B on the Elf Body in Freshskin. I looked up when I ordered her, new from Dollstown, and was amazed to see it was November 2010, I can't believe she's that old

 

It doesn't seem that long since you got her!!

Teddy

 

@mikki Oh, a Soph B! It's one of my favorite mold from Dollstown! Yours is lovely.

Here is mine, still with me since 2009!

 

I know, right! They grow up so fast!

Thank you very much! Your girl is stunning!

 

@mikki and @Follow-the-Wind, it's so nice to see your DT Elf girls, and that they're still with you after all these years A great way to wake up this thread!

My two Elf body girls are newbies by comparison, ordered from DT in 2019 and 2021. Earlier this year I finished their face-ups, and got their characters sorted out. Meet Harriet Potter (left, Sarang) and Tsuchida Botan (right, Maru).


Here's a close-up --

 

Sweet.

Teddy

 

Thank you so much @beamlette

I love your girls so much, they're both beautiful
Harriet's skirt is really sweet.

 

Aw, thank you, @mikki!

Harriet is wearing a Softly She Walks top and skirt from 2006. Still good after all these years, lol!

 

@beamlette I wondered if it was SSW, I love their clothing and am lucky to have a number of pieces, so glad I got them when they were available. Mine are mostly white and black, I wish I could have got a skirt like yours.

 

Does Dollstown provide a certificate when you only buy a body? I don't remember getting one.

 

In recent years Dollstown has sent a CoA for either a body or a head. In
past years, they did not, However @nancy_schroeder_ca if you have your
original purchase order/receipt, they may well send you a CoA for that
purchase if you write them and ask. At least they did that for me a couple
of years ago for older purchases. It’s worth asking!

 

@Robyn_in_WA, Thank you. I got this body in 2020. I'll look for the certificate first!
