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.

    2. The thing that stands out the most for me on them is, their necks are SOOOOOO crazy long, and their hands and feet tiny. If they were just a bit thicker and had you know... half an inch shaved off their neck lol...

    4. That's exactly what I say! hehe

      In terms of size hybrid-wise though, I think male Mecha Angel heads would go well on Loong Soul Grace bodies or Ring Doll bodies. IOS 80's necks are too thick even for their own 80 heads to fit on properly. Dollstown's 18yr boy body might be good for them too since the female bodies are good for female Mecha heads, but since I don't have a Dollstown 18 boy I couldn't really say.

      I hate changing heads around, but you can tell a bit from one of my old pics. From left to right: Idealian, Mecha female, Mecha male, IOS 80, Loong Soul Grace male, Loong Soul Grace female, Ring Doll Grown, Iplehouse EID model.

    8. I don't really want to go pull out the doll box right now and measure heads, but yes, her head is on the small side. I have a Super Gem boy whose head is pretty small, and I generally find that 8-9" wigs are best for both of them. (9-10 is okay for her, but not the SG. He sort of swims in them.)

      Hopefully someone else has a doll head and tape measure ready, and can give you a better answer!

    10. So, my kitty's reasonably together (need better clothes and stronger magnets for the tail).

      [​IMG]

      I do, however, wonder if anyone has suggestions for the ankles, as they are the worst behaved of any of my dolls so far (and that's saying something, as I have an old D1-60).
       
    11. Hot glue sueding and don't go out on windy days! lol
       
    12. Dang, I already restrung and hot glue sueded him. <wanders off to tighten stringing> He is now pulled to almost the level I try to restring my Domuya at (takes a second person to pull him tight enough) and still no improvement... guess this guy's getting stuck with tall/tight boots (and I'll be tweaking the stand, the tallest cheap one I could find is about 2cm too short to really hold him).
       
    13. Yeah, we do a lot of leaning and artful draping outside. ;)
       
    14. I guess I'm lucky, because my Sabik is a very good stander, even now he is almost 2 years old and I believe his elastics are a bit loose.
       
    15. Well my Sabik got here today, so my Mecha Angel brothers are together! They're still blank and bald and naked, and wearing random eyes I found around the house, but at least they have each other (and a modesty lap scarf). They are going to be fraternal twins, though I'm still not sure on names and hair colors and such. Or how to clothe them. They're so huuuuuge. At least Idealians still get clothing sets made for them and can share with EIDs and such.

      They're both wearing 14mm eyes right now, though I feel like the irises are kinda big, especially on Sabik. What size eyes do you guys have in your Mecha Angel men?
       
    16. You know.... I think mine is wearing 14mm. They were "small" back then... lol

      And congrats! What a great pair! I love multiples, and would love to see your boys at all stages of their WIP. ^_^

    18. Soom said 14mm, though I held off on ordering any until my guy made it home to check (because I regularly go smaller), but I'm quite happy with the 14s in my Sabik, and he's got Candy Kitten customs, now.
