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.

Elfdoll Catsy

Sep 9, 2005

    1. i havent settled on a name for my catsy yet, i thought i had a name picked but now im not so sure once i get her it might help..
       
    2. Does anyone know where to find sunglasses to fit Catsy? I've seen pics of one wearing them before and I'm looking for a pair. If anyone has any info, I'd greatly appreciate it! Thank you! :)
       
    3. Hi! I agree. I have black Catsy. The little feet with silver sandals are wonderful. The paw hands are a disappointment and I wish they had included little hands with fingers and not just fist hands. Grrr. Tibby
       
    4. I agree. I look at pictures of the original Catsy with her actual hands, and I wish that they'd done that with this one. It would have been nice to have had hands and paws, for example, instead of the fists.

      She's a love, though. I love her expression. Mine is on a dollhouse-size sofa on my nightstand, so I often hold her in the evening before I go to sleep. Even after a month, I still marvel at the detail of her sculpt and the tiny perfection of her body.

      I'd like to make her some more clothes. It certainly doesn't take a lot of fabric - I just need the time. With those long, slender legs, she needs a shorter skirt or a pair of shorts.
       
    5. Heh heh, I love the paw hands. The human hands scare me a little...
       
    6. Sorry Stella... I have to agree with tibby and Kotyuu on this one. I just don't like the paw hands...
      It does not help that the shape is hauntingly simular to my grandpa's hand (who lost all his fingers and has a "paw" how himself). I know as soon as I get my Catsy in those paws are coming off.

      It such a shame that elfdoll will not allow you to buy regualr hands... I did not even care about the color... I would have dyed or painted them... but they just will not sell the regular hands. :(
       
    7. I wish they had given us regular hands instead of fist hands, since I've never bothered with fist hands anyway. Although the paw hands don't bother me - they do make dressing a little easier, as far as sleeves go- I do agree that they should have made regular hands available for sale. They sell all the other optional pieces - why not hands? And they are the most likely to get damaged, too, so many people may need replacements at some point. Perhaps Elfdoll will reconsider and offer regular hands sometime soon. Here's hoping they do! :)
       
    8. You could write to Elfdoll and suggest that. I have extra feet for my Adel, why not hands? Many other dolls have alternate hands, including larger Elfdolls.
       
    9. ahh i got to see one of these in person today! it was too cute.. yellow eyes fit it perfectly.
       
    10. I must admit, I'm a big fan of Catsy, but I think one is enough for me.

      Plus I wish she had normal human hands so she doesn't look like a freak next to her white sister. :P But I'd love to see a pic of the two together though.

      Black resin must be difficult to make too. :sweat
       
    11. If you'd like to see pics of the two together, I posted a few pics in the gallery a while back. Here's the link:

      The difference of hands doesn't really bother me and I think they still look cute together. I do hope Elfdoll will make tiny hands available separately at some point in the future, though.
       
    12. My girl came home yesterday!

      Here's her opening (and more shots of Catsy and Black Catsy together for Taruto ;))

      I LOVE what Elfdoll did with her hip joint!!!
      For those of you who may be wondering what I am talking about, there is a tiny bump on the inner part of Black Catsy's hip cup and a dimple on her leg. This helps her legs lock into place and keeps her from flailing like her predecesor. :)
       
    13. Thanks for the pics Cattwo and Tonboko. :)

      Yeah, all recent Elfdoll tinies have those bumps inside their joints (or so I've heard). I wish they'd thought of that sooner. *_*
       
    14. You're very welcome, Taruto! :)


      Congrats on your Black Catsy's arrival, Tonboko! I just checked out your box opening post - what a FABULOUS job you did with that! Not only were the pics great but the whole story was so wonderful! Thanks for posting it!! :)
       
    15. Aww.. thanks!

      Hmm.. I was poking though the memebers section... turns out there are two Black Catsys named "Nefertiti Falafel" .. both in California... how weird is that?

      I am still racking my brains on names for my two. I think I may have it narrowed down to two choices, but I am still looking for further options.

      Latin:
      Marria โ€“ A different spelling of "Maria" the dark "sea" plains of the moon.
      Tarrae โ€“ Highlands of moon

      Egyptian:
      Kekewey โ€“ Darkenss
      Seba - Star
       
    16. It's always hard for me to choose a name - which is probably why most of my dolls keep their original ones! But I think you have narrowed down your choices to some very nice ones, Tonboko! Good luck with making that final decision! :)
       
    17. My Catsy is being shipped back this week!
      I am so happy about it. Her nose is fixed....joy!!!
       
    18. Great news, Cathy!! I know it's tough to have to send a doll back to be fixed, but so long as she comes back better than before - it's so worth it! Time to celebrate and enjoy your Catsy!! :celebrate
       
    19. I want to see it, but I can't! Uhh... can someone link me?
