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 Tinies Going Limited starting Nov. 15, 2006

Nov 9, 2006

    1. I ordered a Bong and the base through dollsandfriends they are taking preorders, luckily. It allows me to get Bong and not blow my possible Dolpa NY budget.
       
    2. For now, I'd try Denver Dolls or BJDollrama. Janis at Sunrise used to sell them, but she doesn't sell BJD things any longer.

      There is a picture of a brand-new 14cm girl on the Cyworld Elfdoll Club page, but we don't know if she'll be for sale or if she's just one of Rainman's sculptures--personally, I'm hoping she's the new tiny they talked about. If she is the new girl, perhaps they'll re-release the extra parts as well. We can hope.
       
    3. Clochette,
      Where is the picture of the girl on the Cyworld Elfdoll Club page? I couldn't find her.
      Thanks!
      Mary
       
    4. I bought a Jin, so my family will be complete!

      I'm glad Sabrina explained what the "base" was or I might have thought it was a face up or something. :roll:

      But I got that too!
       
    5. Could you show me a pic, please? I'd love to see this new girl.
       
    6. thankyou clochette, i emailed both shops, denverdoll wrote back (with lightningspeed :O ) that they are sold out of them, but if they get offered again from elfdoll, they'd definitely reorder them. and have not heard back from bjdollarama yet.

      and you mean that Ggonzi with the new tiny girl? yes she is so cute, i love her long red hair :D
      she looks an interesting mix of more mature in her face, but still very young, quite cool! can't wait to hear more about her. (btw i joined that cyworld place, seems like a cool place :)

      once more, does anyone know the stories of the original Monnaemi sisters? i would especially like to hear MinDelRe's story :)



      edit: new story with Ggonzi on the cyworld club, go check it, so cute!!
       
    7. Her name is Ggonzi!!! And I'm pretty sure that's the Rainman's hand holding her. Swoon.

      annina: Someone here on the board once mentioned that the three sisters were modeled after Rainman's own daughters. I'm not sure if the story is still out there to read or not.

      There was a bit of a controversy (so I understand) when he first released them because some people made fun of the molds which is unkind since they are in his children's images.

      But, of course, as you now know, they have become very popular and people love the way their personalities shine through and adore the way they don't look "perfect" like a barbie doll, but full of love and character and natural beauty! :aheartbea
       
    8. delicateangel, yes she is so cute!! and i am loving the possibility to somewhat be in contact with rainman there on cyworld in the elfdoll club :D

      ah thankyou, i didn't know they were made in the image of his daughters, that's so cute! yes, they are so very loveable because they are not barbie-perfect, much more interesting, just like each of us (humans) is unique :aheartbea
       
    9. Oooh, Ggonzi looks so cute!!!

      I hope that Rainman does release her. With the right faceup, she could become a very cute smiley girl. A perfect little sister for my Elf Uyoo.
       
    10. Wow!! She's really cute. I want one^^
       
    11. thats Rainmans old girl ...I used to call her Red as we never knew her name
      he used to have storys on his site about her ...She is gorgeous
      I always hoped one day he would release her


      delicateangel is very correct , I can remember talking bout Bong when she was first released and there were some very rude and immature comments about her


      a bit insulting when you had just spent over $250 on one
      and as RainMan is a member of DOA too

      but then the new regs came on the board and that sort of thing isnt allowed anymore

      I also think sculpts are much more realistic and adventurous now
      Bong was well ahead of her time ...its great to see her back again and with so many new fans :)


      I have all my beloved Elf
      I always wanted an Adel ..or Olivia
      but
      I would love it if he released Dodo again ...I would snap her up
      or this girl
       
    12. That is very sad! Especially if they were based on his daughters!

      I think Bong is very cute! She just looks so bouncy and happy!
       
    13. Interesting...she's presented as if she's new, "the birth of". She must have been absent for a while. A bit ago--like, after the whole poll/naming thing--he spoke of releasing a "tiny for Ryung fans", so I was hoping she was it.

      I wonder what this one is made from? You can see grey/white on a couple of her joints in that pic.
       
    14. yes i also wonder what she is made of, and as you say, i was confused cause he does present her as if she is new, but the date on some messages was 2003 something...
      maybe she is re-born?? maybe he is thinking of some nice day releasing her? time will tell, i would definitely love that.
       
    15. It's nice to see that they are releasing the Monnaemi sisters again, but I'm also really happy that I managed to get an "old" Bong Sun Hwa. I really prefer the previous versions of the trio, and if I had only seen the new ones, I probably wouldn't have started liking Bong that much...
       
    16. It will be interesting to see if he's made any changes to the body. I think the head molds look about the same. I think it's just the faceups that are very different and the wigs.

      Carolyn
       
    17. Yes, I also believe the head molds are the same, but it's the face-ups that I don't like that much, and the new limited dolls are also a bit more expensive... so, if I hadn't managed to get an older Bong, I would have had to pay more for a doll whose look I would have had to alter. :)
       
    18. all of you who love Ggonzi, go check out the elfdoll club at cyworld (you have to sign up and be approved now)
      eiko did ask if there is a possibility for Ggonzi to be made as a doll for us fans, and there might be, go look in "message from fans"!
      http://us.cyworld.com/club/clubmain2.php?clubid=208000004457

      (i'm sure some of you have seen it, i recognize some names of people who commented, but i thought if we all encourage rainman, we might convince him that many would love to own their own Ggonzi) :D



      btw my question again, how does one sign up in the elfdoll club? i just want to make sure i am a member when it comes to a special release or so, but i can't see any place to sign up..
      http://www.elfdollclub.com/
       
    19. Yeah, I truly hope Rainman does release Ggonzi. No matter what, I will try to get her. She can be a sister to my Min.

      I don't know how to become a member of Elfdollclub.com but you can easily post there without membership. Maybe he meant the Cyworld club? I don't know.
