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.

Haru Casting Adori Discussion

Jan 27, 2016

    1. I'm so happy right now as Haru let me order a body a few days ago for my Adori, I really didn't like the Onlydoll body suggested for the peach normal skin tone.:dance
       
    2. I just got a shipping notice from Haru for my Adori boy body. YAY!!!:D
       
    3. Congrats! I didn't see mine in the first shipment, but it's so exciting to see the first batch go out.
       
    4. Mine is customs for 4 days. I have sent the bill -_- ' Do you know if Haru said the real value ? Thank you
       
    5. I got mine few days ago and he put $45 value on the package.This is my second time ordering from him and I am pretty sure he put a lower value on my last order too.
       
    6. Yes, it took less
      But I have sent the real bill.
      That's the game.

      Thank you for answering :)
       
    7. Ladies and gentlemen: What are you all doing for pants for Adori?

      I'm finding that a lot of my YOSD pants are just too small - they slide down and give him builder's bum as soon as I have him sat down at all. Right now he's in some borrowed Iplehouse KID pants, which at least fit width ways.

      Any suggestions on where to look?
       
    8. Hello,
      She arrived this morning after 15 days in customs and 43 € in less ^^
      Here is,Iroda

    9. Interesting. I haven't had a problem with his pants fitting properly, and I bought his jeans from Alice's Collection and his knits from Denver Doll, if I didn't make them myself. His khakis came from DD, too, now that I think about it.

      Rokidyal, that's so great! I'm so happy to start seeing the latest Adorii show up, and I'm a sucker for gray dolls.
       
    10. Hello
      She're not gray is the effect of the photo ^^
      Thank :)
       
    11. Ah. Well, shoot. She looks good gray! Maybe I can someday buy an Adori in that skin color myself, since I'm obviously drawn to it. :)
       
    12. Is there a waiting room for Adori somewhere? I'm just a bit anxious waiting on my doll to arrive (first doll ever, so I'm hoping things go smoothly) and wanted to see how many others are waiting too :)
       
    13. I'm still waiting on mine. I don't think there is a waiting room? I'm a little worried too because they posted pictures of the first ten they sent out then nothing except the casting for other people after. I'd love to see more Adori's being made and sent out!

    14. Hi. Can someone kindly explain how to order these folks please (and perhaps put it on the info post?). I've skim read the thread and saw someone mention that you had to copy this thread on to your blog post and then copy the link to the company but I don't have a blog. Can you just email them direct? Does anyone know when the next order period is or how long orders take? Also is there a post with the colour options somewhere? I've found the page that lists the colours but I can't see any examples.

      Many thanks.
       
    15. I am waiting on two Adoris also, I've had nothing other than an acknowledgement from Haru when I paid. I hope that they will be ready soon, its a long wait.
       
    16. I follow Haru Casting on flickr: Haru casting
      You can see what they're up to, including when they open a new ordering period. That's also where I ordered my Adori. It's a little more complicated than ordering through a website, but once you post on flickr you continue communicating through email and any problems are quickly and easily resolved.
      They also have a tumblr blog, but I prefer going through flickr.
      I'm also waiting for the next ordering period as I'm interested in Nanni. I think I heard that there will be a pre-Christmas one.

    17. The process for ordering for me was sending an email to the address listed on their Flickr. They wanted my Flickr ID name as well as any other social media I D you have ( I believe to prove you are a real person and not a spy from a recasting company), a written statement that you do not buy recasts or support that , and a statement that you will not cancel your order. I think he does this for his own protection because these are his own intellectual property and separate from his main business of casting for other artists, and because these are portraits of his own children which he would not want to fall into the wrong hands.
      As for next pre order , I think you have to follow him on Flickr and watch for it. His website shows sample colors and lists the available bodies and heads but is a bit difficult to navigate.

    18. Yeah, It's the same reason for me too! Too bad about no waiting room tho. :'(
       
    19. You can start a waiting room, you know.
       
    20. He said it would be a little while before the next set shipped. The first pre-order of Adoris went out in batches like this, so I wouldn't worry to much. I doubt they'd mind if you sent a message asking, though. They seem very pleasant.
