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.

Gem of Doll Discussion

May 8, 2020

    1. I also have an Abner, in their Pink, and I'm sure he's mellowed but he doesn't look yellow at all, to my eye.
      I have a Gaia in Tan and she is also pretty much the same color as far as I can tell. They're both about three years old.

    2. I am very excited for more reasonably priced and hopefully slightly smaller jointed 1/4 hands like these.

    3. I was excited to see the new hands too, might buy 2 pairs for my duo although I actually like their default hands too but I've wanted jointed ones for a while.

      At the moment I'm keeping an eye on them since I noticed this centaur concept art on their weibo and if he's MSD size and has a pretty face and doesn't cost like $500+ I seriously might have to buy him.

      I hope they'll reveal the actual doll design soon because I'm really curious to see it, their dolls have been killing me lately by their cuteness (Wall, Polax, Castor, Tazz, Beaz, Adelise, Luna...) and it's been hard to not make any impulse purchases but if I really like their centaur I'm throwing that thinking to trash for a moment and just getting it. :XD:

    4. agreed, Gem really has been sweeping me off my feet lately with every new release xD. So far they're the only brand that has me buying one of their dolls yearly, lol. This year's pick ended up being Luna, and I would've picked up Adelise too if my finances weren't so tight. And now they're gonna release their own jointed hands as well?? Wild. If their mia pink ends up as a close match for my myou girl in pink, those are gonna be added to my wishlist for sure. Definitely not a purchase for right now, but eventually down the line, haha

    5. Hello all!
      Those jointed hands... I went to look at them yesterday and ended up going to bed having placed an order for a mousse white Tazz fullset as well as a pair of those hands! It couldn't be helped, love at first sight. ;)
      I'll be sure to share pics of those hands! :3nodding: I remember back in the day when it was only very large dollies getting articulated fingers. I'm eager to see how they're put together. :abambi:

    6. My Gem Luna is home~! No name for her yet, but I'm sure she'll tell it to me once she's all settled in. Wig is also temporary as I plan to have her be a dark brunette. Also paired with Faline, her new (twin) sister!

    7. So there'll be two centaurs and the first actual doll image of the girl one has been posted here. :D the only thing I don't love are those tiny wings at the hooves so I'm hoping they're some sort of accessory you can take off. Wish the horse body was more visible too since I'd like to see how exactly it looks like but I guess we'll be getting more pictures soon and pictures of the boy version too which is the main personal interest for me.

    8. So, so, SO excited for this release! Do we know if they are 1/4 or 1/3 yet?

      I'm hoping 1/4, her left hand looks like the left hand on their new Grace 1/4 body where the ring finger is bent the lowest of all the fingers.

    9. Oh wow, the centaurs are pretty exciting. I love how fantastical Gem is getting lately.
       
    10. My wallet is shaking in fear, the boy centaur is gorgeous too :shudder please don't cost too much and please be 1/4 size doll.... :eusa_pray

    11. Oh my goodness he's quite mature looking and he has a smoulder!
      Keen to see that sculpt blank, and also what the body looks like.

    12. Gem posted naked picture of the girl centaur and I'm confused, why is there censor dot between the front legs? They didn't put the lady bits on it there right? :? It looks like the little wings are also part of the hooves so that's a bit disappointing and it's a lot skinnier than I thought it would be but I think that overall it's quite pretty centaur. Now I'm even more curious to see how the boy one looks like. (And I will scream and cry if he has genitals between the front legs :sweat)

      There was a post on their weibo saying they'll be posted on their site on the 28th so a couple more days and then we'll know their sizes and prices :dance

    13. I suspect the censor dot isn't because there's anything there but more because AI things freak out about anything they deem to be "that region" so it's probably to prevent auto mod takedowns.

      I'm really eager to see the boy's face sculpt blank because he looks substantially more mature than their usual boys.
       
    14. There's also a new video of both (I think they're the same size? Not completely sure since the girl is laying down in the shot they're together at) and here's the post with event announcement + the dates, though the video post says they'll be released in the 30th instead of 28th? But either way it's soon. :dance
       
    15. The centaurs have been posted to their site. :cheer

      The boy one, Caul, has magnetic ears you can remove if you want to put the helmet (sold separately) on, I think that's neat but also limits the helmet to only be usable on him since I suspect any ears would be too much.

      These two are gorgeous but in the end not for me. I'm still hopeful somebody here will jump to buying one of them and posting lots of pictures so I can later regret my decision. :lol: I do hope they'll make more centaurs in the future though since there certainly aren't too many of them.

    16. Based on the video, I think you're safe~ (*´▽`*)

      I'm very excited for this release, should be preordering her in October; nude with a faceup. I've been collecting their zodiac series but passed on Sagittarius due to her being 1/3 scale. This will be the perfect replacement~ ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡

    17. I love Caul's face and the black horse body he's available with. But I don't collect centaur dolls because the horse part never looks right to me, and I just don't have the space to display them either. Looking forward to seeing photos of from anyone who does order one!
       
    18. Caul is tempting me so badly... but really the thing I love most about him is his face. I doubt it's enough to motivate me to spend so much, but I'll be doing some serious thinking about it...
       
    19. I just want his head. I was thinking about seeing if they would sell the head by itself or at least with the human body.
