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.

    2. Daphlin (the bat maid cutie) is on sale on ACBJD for a whopping 22% off so I'm putting her on layaway asap, I've never gotten a Dream Valley girl though, what's the clothing situation like? I assume the clothes I have that fit my Charm doll 45cm would fit?

    3. I mostly have dream valley guys so take what I say with a grain of salt but in general DV tends to run on the slimmer side of MSD. meaning that most standard msd stuff will fit but might be a touch baggy

    4. The body this time might be different from others, so it would be best to look at the measurements for Daphlin's body and the Charmdoll body. Both are on ACBJD so the measurements are easy to find.

    7. Oh my goodness, candy corn birdie is so cute! I appreciate the total commitment to the aesthetic, what with the lil' candy corn toenails and all:XD:

      In related news, a fresh arrival!

      I'm glad I didn't pass up on this fellow. He might be the most elegant doll I own, and I adore the engineering on all those arms. I had a moment of moderate panic when unboxing because they had switched his primary right and left hands — I thought he might've been sent with more right hands than left— but fortunately it was an easy fix and he has the correct number of hands (for his unique case, at any rate).

      The blue resin is spectacular. I really hope they bring this color back. It would be particularly amazing for a mer-creature or dragon.

    11. Ooooh wow she is beautiful!! Is her resin different for that porcelain look they had in the promo photos, or was that an extra finish you had to buy?
       
      #391 Beansproutmomo, Oct 15, 2025
    12. Yes, completely different resin color. I asked for the same blue skin resin as Rekka's doll. Coral reef was offering it for all their dolls at that moment. The promo photo's was in wall white and I think the resin was more polished or got a shiny coating for the porcelain look.

    13. @Rekka He looks amazing! The blue resin is indeed very beautiful. I had the opportunity to order Sonata in this colour. I am really amazed Coralreef was offering this option.

      My Robin arrived yesterday, and while I don't expect to get a video of him made until the weekend, I had to do this comparison. For science.

      My god, look at him. Auri still wins out on sheer mass (it's hard to beat out 'size of a housecat') but Storm here, even headless as he is, is still taller.

      Next up is figuring out if I've got any matte enough sealant to use on him to be able to start painting, because it's January and the weather has inevitably turned to crap.

    15. @Cryptid wow! That is very tall! I'm still impressed your dragon wears his wings, I still store mine, his unwieldy enough without them! Um excited for my robin too now!

    16. I might have to see how my lizard boy stands next to my dragon if I can get my dragon to stand.

    17. The wings definitely affect how I have to position him to stand on two legs or four. A lot of the time I reference the original images that DV did to see how they positioned the hips.

    18. A discovery while trying to film: he's strung so tightly that even trying to raise the cords a few millimeters for his neck is extremely difficult. What's what the best way to go about making him more easily stretched with the minimum of restringing? Removing feet? (Even that looks iffy, and wow, those hooks are long. Like Christmas ornament hangers.)

      ETA: I finally got it, by falling back on a combo of cord and pliers pulling: cord around the hook's upper loop, grab the cord near the hook with the pliers, and PULL, trying to avoid getting the pliers stuck to the head magnet. Yes, this WILL be in the video, though perhaps not as a demo, now that I've got his head on. head tax:

    19. all my dream valley's are ridiculously tight strung :lol:
      i use a solid metal tennis racquet stringing hook since i had the kind made for dolls explode in my hand under pressure while working on my DV 1/3 boy LOL. ow.

      @Cryptid he looks so good in the grey!

      it's really good to see owner pics :)
      I'm not sure when mine is due in yet.

    20. The 3-arm body I bought was so tight I could barely get the SD head on and even after a month of having him tied up in the fetal position, he still creaked alarmingly when I moved any of his limbs. I ended up restringing him and to get the elastic out, it had to be cut because there wasn't enough slack to take his feet off.
