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 Realpuki discussion - part 20

Apr 5, 2020

    1. Well, Halloween Event notice posted & no RP :(
       
    2. And no extra Obi's either!
       
    3. I guess we'll have to pray for a Christmas event with RP, hopefully with a re-release the older sculpts. I need an Ara.

    4. That would be a great Christmas present! I'm after an Ara too. I originally didn't care for the sculpt, but the more expressive ones have really grown on me over the last few years & now I'm anxious to add him/her to my crew. And I'm checking DDE daily in hopes they'll have an Obi in stock soon.
       
    5. That's exactly how I responded to Ara, too. I felt the same way about Sira when he/she first came out. Now I want one.

      That is so sad :) it gives me more time to save up but still would have loved a new release.
      As long as I eventually get a Roro I will be happy :)

      Disappointed FL isn’t releasing RPs yet. Like the rest of you, I’m hoping for the next event.
      I love the Ara sculpt so much, had to share a favorite pic of my Teddy & Keely.

    8. Love your Ara kids, @Jonlyn - I didn't remember you had two of them. They look like they're singing in unison.:)
       
    9. @Jonlyn Oh what a treat it is to see these two little darlings together! Makes me swoon, I swear! Is anyone else like me?...the older I’ve gotten, the more I’m drawn to the more extreme of the Realpuki expressions, Ara being a perfect example. That’s one of the reasons I dove so hard on Obi the moment he came out.:) Years ago I was looking for pretty and cute, now I find myself looking for strong character faces. I’m not sure why that is, but I’ve noticed my feelings trending that way in general...even with other BJD brands as well.
       
    10. Thank you so much @vermont chick & @PoeticSoul ! I love quirky little characters too. I do have a couple “pretty” dolls but they have to have pointed ears. Don’t know what I will do if Fairyland doesn’t release RPs again. Thankful I have as many as I do but you can’t have too many of these precious characters.
      Recovering from hip replacement surgery so haven’t had much play time. Have a couple of new to me RPs that haven’t gotten any attention yet, poor babies!
       
    11. Those are wonderful faceups, Jonlyn! Recover quickly from your hip surgery! You could play with your kiddles while sitting though. :)
       
    12. Thanks @El BJD . Face ups are by two of my favorite artists. Doing fine now but had some big set backs , reactions to a medication & a mysterious fever so was too sick to play. 4 weeks post surgery, pain free & have parked my walker so I’m looking forward to lots of RP time again

    13. That's great news re your walker! Maybe you could line up your RPs along the handle like they're putting it away for you and take some pix. :)

      My recently arrived Kaka and Titi faceups are by Michelle Olrich, my first by her, but I can't remember the 2nd artist right now.
       
    14. @El BJD , love Michelle’s face ups! Cute photo idea....may try it when I’m allowed to bend far enough to pick things up off the floor. I haven’t played because I was afraid of dropping something...those tiny hands & feet can be so hard to find & impossible to replace.
      Hope everyone is enjoying a beautiful fall weekend.
       
    15. I'm still working in the garden and deciding which bjds to keep out as we pack up and declutter to put this place up for sale to move closer to my daughter, Plus I've been asked to test knit something for a 2" non-bjd, so I'm excited about that!

    16. @El BJD how nice that your move will be closer to your daughter. Wow...I would love to see what you knit for something so very tiny. I’m sure it will be awesome.

      My Keebler, another of my quirky loves!

    17. I love this photo, @Jonlyn - Flying Cauldron Butterscotch Cream Soda sounds like something they would serve at Hogwarts. Keebler obviously loves it. In fact, he might have had a little too much already. :lol: Is it a real product?
       
    18. Thank you @vermont chick . It is a real product but it is very difficult to find. I’m hoarding my last 2 bottles & yes, I never thought of it that way but it certainly does sound like the perfect beverage at Hogwarts!
