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. There's no rule that says everything has to be brand spanking new. They're not selling it now, are they? Then what's the harm in releasing it again, especially since it's popular?

    2. It sounds like people like this idea. I'll put a post about it in the Marketplace later on today and get back to the people who have PMed me. Thanks!

    3. The big question will be if they limit the number you can buy while you're there. I have NO IDEA how this works, so please let me know what's best for you!

    4. Same here--if I'm one of the ones chosen, that is. The last thing I want to do is bog you down and make you spend all day buying extra clothes when you could be enjoying other Dolpa events! Hopefully there *isn't* a limit!

    5. Lia & Zania -- I was wondering about the same thing and will find out if they limit numbers of items. I figured since I would be in the room anyway for myself, it wouldn't be a problem picking up a few more things for other people. I really wouldn't want to do it for more than ten people though, just so that I could keep things straight. I'm still trying to work things out though and will post something in the Marketplace tonight and PM you too. You're definitely some of the "chosen" ones though. :wink:

    8. Awesome Kellyhime--and thanks so much for keeping us updated! There are really only about 4 outfits I'm considering, if it helps to know that at all.

      Now, if only I could find someone to stand in line and get Arashi for me too, LOL!!! :wink:

      Cheers--

    11. I think she's wearing one of the "super smiley" Kaede heads Volks featured last year at a special show. They were never released for purchase, but I do remember seeing photos of that head along with a few other SDCute heads. I love SDCute, but the ubersmile was just a little *too* smiley for me IMO!

    15. Actually, yes, a couple of us are hoping to meet.

      We hadn't decided on a time and place yet though, just a vague "afternoon". Is the tearoom (wherever that is) definitely in the part of Big Sight that Dolpa will be using? There's a comic convention happening at the same time at Big Sight. The staff at the Shinjuku Tenshi no Sumika told me that the guidebook would go on sale today so I'll try to get it soon and see what information and site maps are included.

    17. Kasumi! Damn you, damn you!
      I was not supposed to be particularly fond of any VOLKS LE doll ever again! :|

    18. Oh, good! I think the tearoom or whatever it's called is something they've had at the past Dolpa. It looks like it's just a big space with tables where attendees can relax and play with their dolls. Keep us posted about other possiblities you see in the guidebook.

    20. I got the guidebook today. The tearoom ("Dolpa o-cha-kai space") is clearly marked on the map so we should be able to find it. Dolpa is being held in the West 3 and 4 halls.

      Oh, according to the guidebook, Volks is opening a new Tenshi no Sumika in Harajuku. The "pre-open" event is from 4/29 to 5/5.

      There's also a tiny ad for the Dolpa after event. It's scheduled for May 21st and 22nd, between 10 AM and 8 PM.
