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.

Dollstown Mini discussion part 6

    1. Hello, everyone! :)
      I noticed that on the dollstown website some models that have sold out in the past are appearing again, such as;
      -ganga
      -jea
      -deogi

      Does anyone know the reason for this sudden revival of models? And has anyone ordered from them recently and can say anything about the quality?

    2. Thank you Mikki I don't know if the changes are that much, so I will go with the assumption that the foot width is the same or a little less not wider.

      They don't sell out as much as the silicone molds get old and crack so they can't be used. If a new silicone mold is made from the oriiginal head sculpt or a new head as in the Hue head which for some reason wasn't available for very long they can make new molds and thus new heads. Ganga, Jea and Deogi were stopped mainly because the 5 Year body had to be redone. Since they cast only as ordered they can keep molds longer if they don't get many orders for them.

    3. I think the feet are exactly the same on the newer ones, Michaela. I don't see any differences between Arin, January, and Phinnie's feet.

    7. They both look absolutely adorable! I love it when two dolls are siblings, especially if there are similarities between two sculpts :chibi

    11. I got hold of a sample of DollsTown Copper Oriental resin so I could do a comparison with my MerryDollRound Berry head (in "Cookie" skintone) with a view to hybridding it onto a Copper Oriental 7Year boy body (already ordered).

      They ARE NOT a close match in real life but that doesn't show up in any of the photo's I've taken of the ehad and the resin sample in natural light, full sunlight, shaded light, or with the camera flash:
      The diffference shows a little in the one with camera flash (at least on my monitor):
      [​IMG]
      but it's much more obvious in real life.

      EDITED TO ADD : Compare the ear in the photo with the rest of the head and you get a better idea of the degeree of mismatch between the resin sample and the head (No idea why the ear is showing up as lighter than the head when they're exactly the same shade in person).

      It is, however, close enough for me (I've never insisted on an exact match since most real people have a mismatch between the colour of their face and the colour of their body so I don't demand a perfect match in my dolls), so my Berry will be a little boy on the 7Year body.

    12. It looks great to me @Teddy When do you hope to get the body?

    13. I don't know. It could be anything between a few weeks and several months depending on whether they need to made new silicone moulds for the casting etc.

      I'm in no hurry. I need to save up for the face-up (well, several faceups, as it amkes more sense to send a batch of heads offg together than a series of individual packages. Having financially crippled myself by overbooking places at events during January through May of this year, it's going to take some time for my spending funds to recover.

    14. The body is on it's way already and has reached the UK, not sure if there's goign to be a Customs delay or whatever.

      And, of course, the head is still waiting to get sent to America for a faceup (I'm saving to send several in one parcel)

    15. My 7Year boy body in Copper Oriental arrived today!

      [​IMG]

      I think that the MerryDollRound Berry head wil make for a cute boy on this body and while the Copper Oriental Skintone is a deal lighter than the MRD "cookie" skintone, it barely shows in photos and is close enough for me, in person.

      As soon as I've saved enough to get several heads painted, I'll be packaging up this one to go over to visit @Jay the next time she has openings in her faceup schedule for the several heads I have waiting.
