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

Has your doll "aged" since you first got them?

    1. It's only been a few years so I can't say with certainty that anyone has really grown up that much. I'll give it a bit more time and maybe indeed there will be a difference. I know that when I meet a doll I've bought, sometimes they easily tell me their age and preference. Other times, you have to eek it out of them before hand.

    2. For me, a lot of it is how their characters have grown, looking at them now! The faceups have made a huge difference too! One of my friends has recently painted virtually every doll I own, and they’ve all become so beautiful, and so different from how they looked when I got them. Seeing Ness, for example, blank in old photos is such a strange experience, because they look so distinct now. Vidania’s head has been through 3 different characters, so her “baby” photos are of all the other people I guess she’s tried to be (ironically all in some capacity self-inserts)

    3. Lol oh yeah. My first girl changed style and so many faces over the years. But she also aged as in yellowing to the point she had to have an oxibath real bad. I had no clue about how to take care of her at first and she sat near a window in the Texas heat.

    4. I perceive their age as changing. Faceup is changing, their style is becoming more advanced, their interests have crystallized.

    5. With Vince, I feel that way a little bit-- though of course how 'young' he looks depends a lot on what wig I have him in and all. I'm sure some of it is just that I'm used to his face now so it doesn't seem quite as childlike, and he's been through a couple face-ups... but some of it is definitely coming out of my hyperempathy for objects, and how long I've had him. It's interesting, because his character is a bit Peter Pan-ish, he's never going to 'grow up', but... I think he's settled into himself.
