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.

Fairyland RealFee Discussion Part 7

Apr 10, 2018

    1. :mwahaha Yes, I confess to having a piece in the freezer right now because I messed up the polarity! (I found that if you freeze a piece with the offending magnet, the super glue will release, although you might still need to do some prying.) Perhaps I should have gone the putty route.
       
    2. Just playing a bit with Luna. I couln't get her feet off for her to wear her pretty red resin shoes to save my life! I've never had such an issue trying to get feet off on any of my other FL dolls. Any tips?

    3. Try holding the ball joint in one of your hands, while pushing the foot forward (Push the toes towards the shin.) to disconnect the little bulge in the ball that locks the foot into place.

    4. What a cutie @JinCIncy ! The RealFee size is so appealing, isn’t it?!
      Were you able to get Luna’s feet off??
      I need to get some new photos of my Soso and Toki…. I don’t recall
      if I’ve ever taken their feet off. But PukiFee Kaka’s feet were quite
      difficult to get off too.
       
    5. Yes! I took the advice of someone here and pulled the toe toward her shin and they popped right off.

    6. Eeek I just saw the new Realfee order and I’m so excited!!! I think I want an Eva but I will have to stare at photos of all of them to be sure… I’m absolutely thrilled they are bringing them back and Rus as well. I thought I was safe from new dolls but then they throw out these plot twists… I hope the realpukis get the same treatment, have been waiting years for a toki and pupu :eusa_pray

    7. I'm waiting on eva right now. they are bringing back pukifees too so seems they're having some fun with the littler dolls lately.
       
    8. It seems to me that you have to keep checking FL’s website because they keep changing what they are concentrating on. Am I right on this?
      I ordered a LittleFee elf Ante a while ago and was only checking my order when I realised they were selling RealFees and I ordered a Soso boy. I guess it will be a while before I see them tho.;)
      I do hope they bring back the PukiFees.

    9. FL has brought back some PukiFees.
       
    10. I definitely feel this! Sometimes years go by between releases for some lines and I’ve only been able to get some dolls because DDE ordered extra stock. I feel like releases usually coincide with events though, but I agree and hope they bring back some of the regular lines. Seeing so many basics pop up for pukifee and Realfee has me hopeful I’ll be able to snag a pano and more basic realpukis at some point!
       
    11. Thank you, I found them. Oh my poor wallet!

    12. I finally got all the parts to put Pan together! It took some effort, though. I had thought the new headback would be too loose, but it turned out to be too tight! It was extremely tight even for the Toki faceplate that came with it. The new Toki faceplate fit perfectly on my old Realfee headbacks, but not the new one he came with! It was hard to tell where the problem was because the old and new headbacks look pretty similar. I sanded the jaw part here and there and the problem in the end seemed to be that it was too broad somewhere at the corners of the jaw. So I finally managed to make old Pano faceplate fit the new headback.

      And that was not the end of problems. The new body was strung so tight that the metal ring broke when I was trying to pull it down far enough to catch the support slot to be able to swap the lower body. Fortunately I had some miscellaneous small metal rings in my stash so I could replace the ring. And now I finally have a finished Pan!

    15. @spih Congrats on your Pano! :) I hope to find one myself some day!
       
    16. Oh, well done. He’s brilliant!
       
    17. Congratulations @spih, well worth it all as he’s such a cutie and that striped jumper is adorable. I just love Pano’s face! He’s my grail and I’m waiting impatiently for him to be rereleased hopefully with his little hoofies.
