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.

In love with a discontinued sculpt

Jan 26, 2017

    1. I would do anything to find a pukifee Bonnie, and a Petite Ai Hanael... I used to have both few years ago, but i sold them on a whim, and stopped the hobby for a while...(couldn't stop thinking about it anyway :kitty1)
       
    2. Ooohhh yeah.
      I am in deep love with every single Coral Reef doll ever made. If I was rich and could travel back in time, I would get them all, specially the insect dolls. They're absolutely beautiful, charming and different!
       
    3. I thought I'd never be on this train but I've really quite fallen for a few SDCute sculpts and of course Volks doesn't want to produce them much :roll: I'd love a Renée or SWD Kaede, but the first is too expensive second hand and the latter isn't on sale very often. And so I wait for an affordable Y!J miracle.

    4. I desparately miss my SDC Kaede! She had the cutest little smile.
       
    5. I regret not ordering Niko from ShouShou Doll when she was made available. It was cute that she was originally made available with the resin wig and transparent clear faun parts.
       
    6. As someone who has been in the hobby for a long time (I started in 2006) and then took a long hiatus, I think every doll that is on my wish list these days is a discontinued sculpt. I like the older models and they make me happy so I just bide my time and wait. Even though waiting drives me crazy. But like some others have said, the search is half the fun in this hobby and keeps me interested and coming back. I keep looking for my grails and wait it out. It also gives me something to save for and work towards.
       
    7. A couple of older Impldoll sculpts… I wished that I’d bought them when they were still available but they always seemed like a “one day” for me and there were so many other dolls that I wanted at that time… then suddenly Impldoll discontinued them :...( I’d love a Granado Enoch also and wish I purchased him when I could and a few less popular Iplehouse limited sculpts that were available via their Doll Choice but were then taken off…

    8. Doll Chateau Dennis. I love DV Vine and DZ Gray, and Dennis has that same feel to him. I'd love to get him to round out my boys, but he's been discontinued for so long ;;
       
    9. The old Fairyland PukiPuki Sugar and Pongpong. Such cute sculpts and a shame that they don't have them as basics.
