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.

Severe ongoing issues and concerns with Dollshe Dollshe Ban

Fairyland Unreleased Victoria Frances Project doll ~60cm

Aug 3, 2011

Page 13 of 28
    1. Ban Sidhe that's right, hmmm--I'll have to contact Denver doll and see if they will be offered Victoria Frances. I'd really love to get this girl, but the timing is off unless I do a layaway. I wonder if she'll be be the more popular 57-58 cm size rather than the a true 60cm tall girl. If so, she'll be absolutely perfect for one of my characters.

    2. Not sure but as long as she's between 57 and 60 she's mine !!! I got Vance in the mail today and he may be a loner by nature but I can tell he's gonna want Amy soon ;)

    3. I saw this tweet was made yesterday by FL,

      Still waiting for VF info it seems, but maybe they'll tell us something on Friday??

    5. Hey Ban! I saw your picture of your new guy on Flickr. He looks good! I really like him and I am picky when it comes to male BJD sculpts! I like the wig you have on him as well. So is he the one that this girl (your Amy) is hopefully destined for??
       
      #245 in2themystik2, Sep 21, 2011
    6. Thanks, I like him too and yes, he is the one Amy is destined for :D

    7. Well, I was so very certain I would get the VF girl for my F65 guy, but I've totally fallen for the new F65 Siean girl. So I'm really not so sure I'll be getting this girl anymore.

    8. I think she is beautiful too, but I still like the VF girl the best. I don't really care for elf ears on the big dolls and they wouldn't suit my character, but I do like the new F65 girl more than the F65 Chloe sculpt. I will still hold out for more information on the VF girl! :) Good luck with whatever you decide napria! I know it can be a hard decision when there are so many beautiful options! I got to looking at Iplehouse the other day after seeing Ban's new guy and saw the limited girl there and loved her whole full set too, but have no money for that right now. There are just so many lovely options out there! :D (and too little money!)

    9. I actually love the elf ears since her guy has dragon ears ^_^

      I still really like the VF girl, but until they have more than one sculpt that size I'll probally hold off. Not saying never, just not as soon as she's released.

      Ipplehouse dolls are absolutely beautiful, but I've read on DoA that they ar terrible posers. Fairyland has me so spoiled. It would drive me nuts to have a doll that doesn't pose well. But I've been sorely tempted by iplehouse sculpts and if I hadn't read -- and seen pictures -- I'd have at least one by now.

    10. I like this new girl and thinking about ordering her when she will bw able for order.

    11. Well the new Feeple65 Siean girl took the place of the VF girl ^^' She fit the character so much better x'D
      (Had to change something because of elver ears...)

      So no more interested in the VF girl sadly.... (If only she was available a little soon ;P)

    12. Personally I still like the VF girl more. Siean is pretty, but not at all what I'm looking for. She'd probably fit another character from the same show, but if the VF girl is only gonna be 60cm, then Siean is too tall for even that. Love her fullset though. She is really pretty and I'd love to see her in person, but I'm sticking with the VF girl...if she ever comes out :sigh
       
      #252 Elruesta, Sep 25, 2011
    13. Me too - Siean is beautiful but ... I don't need an Elf and she's too big. Guess I'll just twiddle my thumbs awhile longer :(
       
      #253 Ban Sidhe, Sep 25, 2011
    14. I agree that Siean is pretty, but she's just not the VF girl. I think I'd still rather have her. Maybe we'll get some info. at the winter event.
       
      #254 Pinkeed, Sep 26, 2011
    15. Yea, im with everyone that Siean is very very pretty... But just not what I've been looking for. Here's hoping that we all hear something about this girl soon though, I'm getting antsy just sitting here waiting for news XD
       
      #255 bjdnewbie, Sep 26, 2011
    16. I know, I wish they'd just give us something like 'we know you are all waiting, sorry we couldn't give you any info in Sept. like we'd hoped ... appreciate your patience since we totally teased you with all those photos!' ;)
      I'm sticking it out for the VF gal. Not only do I like her shorter height (still hoping for that) but she's human and she looks less 'mature figured' than the Feeple 65 gal. I really like the smaller bust on this girl. It looks modest without being pre-teen ...
       
      #256 Ban Sidhe, Sep 26, 2011
    17. Ban Sidhe I'm going to hold out too--they can take all the time they need as far as I'm concerned, lol. I need to save up for this girl. To me she seems to have the body line of a minifee--just 1/3 scale, and that's what I really want. The Feeple girls are lovely but too statuesque for me.
       
      #257 LisaMarie, Sep 26, 2011
    18. I agree totally :)
       
      #258 Ban Sidhe, Sep 26, 2011
    19. I agree with the waiting. Don't mind when she comes out...the longer the wait, the more time I have to save...I just wish they'd give us something. Even just a ballpark idea of when she's coming out and how much she'll be...that sort of thing...why do they have to tease us so?
       
      #259 Elruesta, Sep 27, 2011
    20. Exactly! To all of that... lol. I agree on giving us something... like you said, even if they have nothing to give - just a "please stand by, still working out the kinks and hope to have information by _____ish."

      I really want this girl, but I need to get myself motivated to save up the funds again. I need some kernal of information to get me going again since I spent most of what I had gathered on new incoming RL doll. I will either have to save and save for months from my paychecks with what little I have left after rent, bills, car payments, insurance, loans... life (SO expensive!), etc. OR I will have to decide to sell one or more of my dolls to help get some funds... but I don't really want to sell any of my BJD's... such a predicament! *_*

      Unfortunately even though I have a birthday and Christmas coming up, I don't really have anyone I can ask for money towards her because my mother will say, "You don't need to be buying any more dolls!" She will not partake in that; she likes to give me things that she thinks I "should" want/have/need, rather than what I might actually ask for. Not sure why she asks me what I want for my birthday/Christmas. I know some of you mother/daughter combos out there collect dolls or bjds together or somehow share in the hobby... that must be nice!

      Soooo, at any rate I need to find more money for this girl and then have a time line in mind so that as I save it, I don't spend it again before she is released! :) This is where some info from Fairyland would come in handy - I need to know when, about how much she will be (which I guess we can sort of guess based on prices of F65), and if she will be available through DDE so I know if I would be able to do layaway or have to purchase outright from FL or somewhere else.

      That DRAMATICALLY effects how much money I need to have saved whenever she is released. So if we find out just a few days or a week or even month ahead of time that she is going to be released and isn't going to be available through DDE, then it might make the difference in whether or not I could get her.

      Sorry for my long ramblings! Just thinking out loud if any of them make sense. I'm sure that many of you are in the same boat!
