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.

Granado Tiny Doll Discussion II

Feb 27, 2022

    1. YES I am on the fence about if I'll get a pair... On the one hand, TINY FINGERS! On the other hand, I had only planned to get Bonnie, so I'm like hmm... HMM... Dilemma...

    2. They look great! What a treat to see so many of them together. ♥

    3. @SteamWitch all your guys are so well dressed! And well painted... my two are still blank.

      I like the new Bayou, but I'm not sure how I'd fit another lady into my current character group. I'm sure I want a 15cmAscent guy though. Anyone know of anywhere to buy eyes that size if I go for open eyed Lucent instead of Shadow?
       
    4. Question with eyes are the hardest, because not much people are doing in such small scale.
      I know artist who theoretically can do, because she made eyes for my geliefuxiaoxiao dolls, but she live in Russia and shipping is very painful question right now.
       
    5. I reached out to Granado to ask for blank pics of Bonnie and Bayou, because it was sort of hard to see their features very clearly on the listing. I already put in an order for Bonnie's new open eyes version, but... Just in case I wanted to swap...! Anyway, here they both are!

    6. Anyone knows the difference between the 29Muse and 29Embody body?
      I'm going to order Bayou, but I am not sure which body I should use for her. It seemed that if the 29Embody followed the Female Embody (65cm) it would be more flexible than 29Muse body? :atremblin
       
    7. They have the 29Muse body listed separately and it shows a number of different poses.
       
    8. Yes, but 29Muse body poses did not have a kneeling photo, and the Female Embody (65cm) had the kneeling pose. So I thought the Embody would be more flexible in terms of posing. At the same time, there was no high-heel-feet pose for the Female Embody (65cm) that showed the feet joints, but this was shown on the 29Muse body photos, so... I'm a bit confused with the two.

      As a complete beginner, I'm trying to get more information because frankly, they both looked the same. But I do not want to regret the difficulties in posing them or if they cannot make the poses that I wanted because they're not flexible/designed for that. :sweat
       
    9. We only know what’s in the pictures so far. I don’t know anyone that has them in hand yet. I just ordered Bayou and my wife got Bonnie and in the end we decided to get one of each, so I can really answer your question in a few months, but that doesn’t help you now. :XD:

      The big difference for me looking at them is that Muse has a normal waist joint and Embody has one under the bust (which is not my preference). They both look like they have a decent range of motion though, there’ll probably just be a few specific poses one does better than the other. It doesn’t look to me like one’s really obviously the superior poser.

    10. Yeah going off of the 2 boy bodies I have (Adagio vs Vigor) the Muse body is likely to be the better poser in certain ways, but not others! Crocus is always tweaking them. I wouldn't be concerned that one is a BAD poser, though--neither one I have is "bad", just good at different poses! Kneeling I think would be something they could both do. Like Amet said, there's nothing immediately apparent to me on either one of them that would say to me that one is the superior poser over the other. Probably subtle differences that are hard to tell until you have them in hand.

      I did get my Bonnie on the Muse body, so like Amet I could show you the posing on that one... in a few months, which: yep, doesn't help you now! Haha. (That said, @Amet I hope you do some comparisons when you and your wife's dolls come in! I'm super curious to see them side-by-side.) I think you should get whichever body you like best, they're visually just a little different. Both seem like good choices to me, so you can't really go WRONG. I think the Embody has more extra hands, if that's something you want. I don't believe they're cross-compatible.
       
    11. I have Jane on the 29Embody. The kneeling and high heeled feet should be similar to the 60Embody pictures.
       
    12. Are those tiny jointed hands the smallest ones available right now? I've seen some threads about 1/6 scale hands but they all refer back to companies that seem defunct now
       
    13. Almost certainly the smallest! Also, most of the previous kinds of 1/6 jointed hands were made for childlike tinies, dolls similar in size and shape to the Volks YoSD. I think these are the first hands made especially for mature tinies. (Watch me be wrong.)

    14. As far as I know you're actually more or less correct, @Gallye! I've not seen mature tiny 1/6 jointed hands before, except one other place. Compassion Doll had some, hypothetically at least... They were on the Taobao, anyway. So I think Granado remains the only option (as far as I'm aware of)!
       
    15. In that case kudos to Granado for pulling this off…I can’t imagine how hard it is to string something that small with that many joints. (Even if you’re using jewelry wire and not elastic)
       
    16. I am trying really hard not to want to get these jointed hands. I'm usually not into them, but I do own the only fully jointed 1:6 "action figure" hands that were out for a while by Volks (I have no clue where they are right now, there are other articulated 1:6 AF hands, but they have wires in them and have rubbery skins that break easily). I would love to give Granado's to my Myou mature tiny, but the fact that they cost almost as much as he did, kind of deters me from actually pushing the buy now button (I can't justify the cost, for the amount of joy they would bring me). I would love to be able to do the "knuckle cracking" poses with my Kaneki, but not for that much. Restringing them would be a nightmare for sure, I am not even looking froward to restringing my one and only resin tiny (so far). I doubt the Volks' ones would be proportionate to Myou's delicate wrists... but these would probably be too long-fingered anyway. DX
       
    17. I am tempted to upgrade a few of my guys hands to jointed but the price is daunting, but definitely worth it. I'll see how my larger doll purge is going before I commit to them.
       
    18. anyone doll still can't ship out? I ask Granado and they said they can't find a shipping company to ship out my doll :( Going to be a long wait , not sure why they can't find any shipping company. I have dolls and clothes ship out from Shanghai with no issue just Granado.
