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.

Dream Valley Mini Discussion Thread 2

Apr 27, 2024

    1. She is so lovely blank :D I am trying to prioritise (ie other heads, etc) so she won't get a face up in the immediate future, but this will give me time to firm up on how her look will come together. Might even make the outfit first

    2. Question to the folks with the detachable limbs bodies... I can see where the elastic finishes in the arms, though accessing it looks awkward (unsure how for restringing).

      But there is no way to access it in the legs. Am I missing something. Would I need to remove the magnets to restring? Does anyone know of Dream Valley providing a restring guide for this ?

      Update: I understand how to restring after loosening the elastic :doh:lol:

    3. Oooh new female giraffe centaur release! I’ve always liked their previous giraffe boys because they looked super posable, but preferred a girl version. She looks even more posable with that extra torso joint and her shoulder joints. I love her eyeball theme that shes has going on, too. I wish I had the funds for her at the moment, but I’ll have to wait and see if any dealers get purple versions in-stock later on.

      I can’t tell if this “Midnight Purple” color is the same as their previous purple color or not.

    4. Also love the fantastic silhouette of the giraffe-taurs, and Ilya's theme is very interesting as well! She's another one I'll have to pass on for now, though.
       
    5. I can't pass that sculpt nor that skin, so she's ordered. :blush I think she will go well with my Souldoll Kyron. Maybe as a sibling.

      My DV Ghost Moth came in the other day and she's beautiful! The downside to the resin colour is she was covered in obvious sanding marks right out of the box, even on her head. She has a white dot on her face, which I have resigned to considering as a birth mark. I suppose technically, it is!

      My friend was not kidding to me about the magnets, they're not very strong so her legs come off very easily. The moth headpiece has a stronger magnet than her head magnets, so when I try to remove it the top of her head comes off instead haha.

      I wish there were more resin releases like this. It's so pretty, I will be devastated once it has yellowed.

    6. @aestellica protect her from the sun, and the color will last much better! I've got a 11 year old tan Fairyland doll who still looks great. I've seen on other threads on DoA that linseed oil can be used to lessen sanding marks. I think someone even said Resinsoul recommended it.
