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.

    1. Whee, just placed my order. First time getting a doll new from company. Not counting my dollzone Momo, but she was deadstock event item that I got from DDE, so it's not quite the same. So nervous and so excited.
       
    2. I picked my Gela today at customs but pictures will come in few days most likely. Too busy to even enjoy her right now.
       
    3. Congrats on your doll being in, that's awesome.
      I'm still waiting, another month went by and my last layaway payment is going to be made on monday and the dolls still aren't in. I'm getting worried now...

      Does anyone else have the problem where if you wait too long for your doll to come in you end up losing interest in them? I really want my Gela and Teno but...these past four months have felt like an eternity. It sucks.
       
    4. Just dropping in to introduce my Talvi (Gela) to you. =)

    5. I think Gela is a beautiful sculpt. That's a cute outfit you have her in too!
       
    6. I finally got my Impldoll Greta Arietta an outfit. My good friend made her this little Kimono! [​IMG]
       
    7. Hi, new to this thread and new to Impldoll.
      I have a question: I had ordered two dolls from them and one shipped - arrived today (Greta). I purchased her for that cute little face and of course she came with human parts. I had added a note to them to not paint any yellow on the head..but I guess they did not see my note. She is very cute..I just love her but they have also painted the yellow beyond the hands and past the knees. This makes the human parts rather useless as there will still be yellow showing.
      **Oh - I know that I can remove the yellow..but there was to be blushing on those parts. In their photos you can see the blushing and the rest of her body is blushed.
      Sorry to be so long. I have posted in the Q & A and explained to them what has occured. Because I have another shipment coming, I asked if I could purchase a body so my girl does not have to live her life as a chicken. Because I am new to Impldoll...was this the correct thing to do and will impldoll be helpful? Here is a photo of her and you can see how the yellow (and boy is it yellow) has gone past the removable parts.
      If anyone has better suggestions..please let me know. As I say, my first experience with Impldoll. Many thanks

    8. jo1961 - I wouldn't worry about it. :3 Contacting them via Q&A should work out just fine. In my own (admittedly limited) experience with Impldoll, their customer service was absolutely outstanding. From my experience, what I've seen on their Q&A & heard from other people, they've always been extremely accommodating and I'm sure they'll get things worked out for you.

      When I ordered my Colin from them, they agreed to a special face-up; when my doll arrived, he had the default instead. I hesitated to even mention it, but finally did - and instead of asking me to send the head back to replace the face-up, they actually sent me a second head with the custom face-up and told me to keep the first one!

      I've also seen a lot of folks ask for various combinations of mix-and-match with bodies, switching genders, and buying extra parts, and they've always been very open to anything of the sort. I expect it shouldn't be any issue to get a second body for her. :3
       
    9. They answered very quickly and I found that refreshing as I wait days for an answer at Iplehouse. Unfortunately they wish a $100.00 for the body and they will add to my other order that has not shipped yet. I did ask that someone check Teno’s painting before they ship as I hope he arrives well done. Also emailed them showing a comparison photo of their site photo of Greta and the Greta I got. I do believe someone should have caught that "over abundance" of yellow on my girl.
      After all the kind words you have for them Malaryush, we will give them a second chance and see if they do better with Teno.:atremblin Jo
       
    10. Yeah, looking at the site pictures, that does seem like an awful lot of yellow. I know a lot of companies do that kind of blushing with the intent that the fantasy parts blend in to the normal arm, but it doesn't really help if it's unexpected and you want to be able to switch to the human parts. :(

      I really hope everything else goes smoothly for you from here out.
       
    11. It's been forever and a day since I last posted here. I got my little Impldoll Teno in a long time ago, and I know some people were wanting to see owner pics of him. So, here he is... with the faceup I just finished this morning!

      I am so in love with the Teno sculpt... look at that little nose!
       
    12. The face-up looks wonderful and I love those eyebrows. If you have time post a full face view..I would like a better look at the eyebrows. I am still waiting for Teno..yours is so cute.
       
    13. Thank you so much.

      Here's another photo. I can try to get one of him with the wig off if you need it, too. But his eyebrows aren't perfect so don't look too close :lol:

    14. You did wonderfully well. I love the way the eyebrows give him that very curious look...gosh he is such a cutie. Now I am spoiled..the company face-up is just not as cute as yours. GOOD JOB!
       
    15. Aw. Thank you... and sorry about that :sweat: I usually like company faceups a lot, they just never happen to portray the character I imagine for the doll. I've seen (and removed) a lot of Impldoll faceups and they seem to be decent and always cute, but sometimes have problems with evenness and symmetry. Not that a faceup should be perfectly symmetrical but close is nice.
       
    16. I pulled Greta’s head off the ‘chicken’ body and placed on an extra 26cm I had. This body is not a great color match but the other body should be along soon. I may send the face off for a new face-up too as I love that face but the heavy yellow over the eyes makes her look as if she is recovering from black eyes. Well, she could be a scrapper..not sure?

      Here she is on the volks body.

    17. I feel like such an impatient person...so wanting my other Impl doll and the new body for my girl. Wrote Impledoll on Dec. 22nd and they promised doll would ship in 10 days. Just checked the order and no..not shipped yet. darn...oh..must learn patience!:doh
       
    18. He's awesome
       
    19. Wow, I didn't think I'd ever want to impulse-buy a doll but I stumbled upon Teno... I think I may be in trouble!
      I can't wait to see more owner pics :)
       
    20. All the new dolls are gorgeous! I love the face-up on Teno that you did, Heeltr. And I am so sorry your Greta ended up being so yellow, Jo, but she does look adorable with that new body and outfit!

      I am still awaiting my order, I don't understand why IMPL is taking so long, seems everyone is getting their dolls really fast. It's been 5 months now. :( I really can't wait to get my Gela and Teno, I hope nothing happened to them. I just ordered the Simon in Green and Pinky in pink from Denver Doll (since they were in stock there.) I didn't think there was any still available, so I'm super excited that they will be part of my collection. I should have them by february or march.
