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.

Have your dolls hurt you?

Jan 21, 2009

    1. My doll zone Jake has a thigh joint that always snaps on my poor fingers when i mess with it
       
    2. My first time unstringing my doll, I hadn't felt that much pain in a long time. My hands hurt for two days afterwards.
       
    3. Mischief's head butted me, kicked me pinched me, cut me, and nearly taken off fingernails. XD First ten minutes out of the box with his loongsoul body was awful. I had a devil of a time getting his hands on, and then his torso joint gave me a blood blister.

      Mayhem's never pinched me or anything, actually. She's faceplanted, and her foot was scary to put back on, but other than that, she's been fine.

      Acacia hasn't been here long enough to damage, i think. XD seems mischief's just ornery. two SEPARATE bodies caused all of that.
       
    4. I did. my doll's joint sometimes pinched me a little, but I think of it as ok. I never get hurt really badly by my doll.
       
    5. As soon as I picked up my Delf Soo from her box for the first time she full on kicked me in the face.

      Ouch.
       
    6. My boy pinched me quite badly yesterday, and looked totally unrepentant when i swore at him. Adorable little bastard that he is
       
    7. I opened my Doll Family-H Dunayu a couple of months ago and was taking a closer look at his parts. I decided that I didn't really like his feet and said aloud, "it's a good thing he'll be wearing boots all the time." His leg joint pinched me right after! I had to laugh!!
       
    8. My CP Lishe cannot stand up straight. Her legs and mid section snap. So as you can imagine I was dressing her, holding her legs straight, and she bent over and smacked me with her huge head. Really hard. =(
       
    9. Oh god, I have that problem with my Luts girl too.
       
    10. Sounds like your Resinoids are strung too tight. Try loosening their stringing some. :)

      Ryu
       
    11. Emotionally, no. Physically, I have a 2" scar on my thigh from an S-hook, courtesy of some elastic that snapped in half as I was trying to restring. It's been there for a little over a year with no signs of fading. :(

      I had another finicky S-hook almost rip off a fingernail. I am a very unlucky doll owner. Darn those doll companies for stringing so tight.
       
    12. I have a light scar on my left thumb from the first time stringing up the body of one of my girls. The S-hook caught the flesh next to the nail and had a go with it.

      It's fading now, so I'm pretty happy about that. While it was healing and for about a month after that I kept it under wraps for a few hours a day with an antibiotic cream. Maybe it made a difference.

      The same girl also has taken a couple of dives into my head. Resin can give some good bumps, mind you.
       
    13. Latest pain (other then my wallet screaming at me) would be Dev's head hitting my cleavage when I was attempting to put his new wig on him. ^^' That hurt BAD. I'm glad he's an El though; a tiny bit less pain from his nose.
       
    14. I hurted myself A LOT stringing my Bluebell UxD finally my mom had to help me
       
    15. Oh gosh,
      Wile trying to put Basil's head back on when his neck's S hook suddenly decided not to do what it was suposed to. It snapped back bringing some skin along with it. It hurt so bad, but it was halarious because all i could say was "AAH his neck bit me!"
       
    16. I've been kicked, "bitten", and head butted. Most of my dolls when I go to show how loose their stringing is, will end up what I call biting me by pinching my skin between their joints. If they are tightened well enough I've had kicky leg syndrome and been kicked by them. The headbutting will happen during dressing them, standing them, and just various instances of some sort of posing. I've also had where my hands have literally ached after restringing because of how much force I've had to use to hold a string out.
       
    17. My doll is kind, she rarely hurts me :lol:
      Though, one time I got bitten by her knee :lol:
       
    18. My boy has pinched me with torso and ankle joints. But I think the most memorable is when I was sitting on the floor trying to take a picture of him whilst sitting on the floor and he faceplanted and hit my kneecap on the way down. One of the most painful experiences of my life, luckily my dolly wasn't hurt *Sigh*
       
    19. no.. not much they'r really kind to me
       
    20. I've actually been pretty lucky so far. The most I've gotten from my boy is being pinched by his thigh joint a few times, as well as one time while I was dressing him and he randomly bent forward and knocked his head against mine. It oddly didn't hurt too badly, though.
      I've been kicked as well, but it was fairly light and didn't hurt very much, and so random that I ended up just snickering over it and moving on. 8D
