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.

Iplehouse Elemental Guardian- Knight of Water Claude SID

Jul 27, 2011

    1. THANK YOU - I totally missed that :D
       
    2. I DID IT !!! I ordered my guy :D RS with none of the extras (I'll do the faceup myself) and a pair of boots !!! Soon as they tell me which of their two paypal addys to send payment to I'll knock off a huge chunk !!! I'm so nervous and excited ... does anyone else read and re-read their order 100 times to make sure they didn't make a mistake before hitting that 'BUY' button. I felt like I had OCD. *sigh*
       
    3. yes, I always read my order thousands of time before paying xD I'm so parano!
      and after I apid I keep going back to see if the company got the payment.
      and even after I paid I re-read my order xDD

      I'm really wanting him right now. he's mature and adorable at the same time! (it was either him or Unoa elder. their preorders both stop arround the same time. but unoa elder are so expensive! so if I can get some money it will definitly be for him <3 )
       
    4. Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!
      And I believe both email addresses work. When I first ordered from them I used both. Unless it has changed.

      You must be excited.:fangirl:
       
    5. Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How exciting! :D

      I always check my order loads afterwards especially; it's like the one tenuous link I have to my guys until they're home <3
       
    6. Congrats! Another has joined the army of Claudes :3. And yes, I did check my order like, over 20 times to make sure it was right. Sometimes I still check it just&#8203; to make sure >>
       
    7. Haha, mine's going to be blond too... Probably white-blond, not certain yet. Depends on if I see a wig I fall in love with, but Leeke has a few that I kinda like, and my EID has a Leeke wig on and I like it an awful lot.

      For what it's worth, I'm leaning toward NOT getting the mobility joint in my Claude.
      My EID Luo has the mobility joint, because I figured more pose-able = better, yeah? I don't know - It could just be because he's so HUGE, but his legs tend to turn around backwards, get his pants caught in them, make it harder to restring him... Overall if I had it to do over, I probably wouldn't have gotten the mobility joints. Even with them, he can't sit straight up because of the way Iple's hip joints are fitted, at least not without modding.

      But that's the EID. I don't know if the SID is any different, but that's just my thoughts on the matter. At first I thought I'd spring for it and give it a try, but the more I think about it, the more I think I'm going to pass.
       
    8. Waiting for hubby to give me the thumbs up to get the fullset, complete with armor blushing. :o

      He's going to be my Jerem. Gotta figure out how to make blood elf ears now. :?
       
    9. I'm in shock. I just placed my order for almost fullset Claude....my Cullen is coming home :fangirl:

      I am so excited, this crappy day has just been made a loooot better!

      He'll be on a 3-4 month layaway so I guess I'll be in the waiting room for the long-haul xD
       
    10. Yipppeeeeyyyy Akudem - we're in the haul together! Iple confirmed my payment this morning and I'm in for the 3 month layaway too :D
       
    11. Oh, you guys are so lucky! T^T I don't even have enough for the first payment yet. I am trying! O_O
      Oh goodness, I hope Iple turns your boys out quickly. I want to see them SO MUCH.
       
    12. I'm in love with his armor and outfit~ :D Anyone heard from Iple as to how the armor attaches? I'm assuming the shoulder armor hooks to the buttons, but I can't tell if the leg and arms have velcro or elastic or something else?
       
    13. I was just poking around the Iplehouse website, looking at clothes and saw that they've got some pictures of Claude up there, modelling. I just about *died*. They have him sporting a plain, grey t-shirt in a dark brown wig and he looks *exactly* the way I'm planning to style my boy. I'm so happy I was able to bring this handsome dude home! :whee: Now for the excruciating wait... *sits on hands to stop herself from fidgeting*
       
    14. OMGOSH! Thanks Vega! He looks SO AWESOME in those t-shirts. Mmrrrooowww!!!!!! :D :D :D

       
    15. Oh wait, didn't pay attention. I am guessing magnets. D:
       
    16. Yay! Fantastic! :D
      I'm so hoping to get him paid off earlier, it's going to feel like any awfully long wait for our boys!!
       
    17. He reminds me of Siegfried from Soul Calibur... the face shape is a bit off, but the face up, eyes and wig are dead on. The helmet even looks like the one he wore in Soul Blade
       
    18. After spending weeks breaking my head over it, I think I realized who Claude reminds me of. a) He looks like a grown up JID Ryan and b) bears a striking resemblance to (a possibly slightly older, like Three Musketeers) Logan Lerman. That facial shape and that nose.
       
    19. Oh, me too! I paid half up front and will pay the rest when they tell me he's done ... I can't wait :D
       
    20. I didn't know they started work on them until they were paid off entirely, good to know they get started during the layaway! :D

      I've just been able to make a second smaller payment to Iplehouse which should ensure that I don't have to go over the 3 month layaway limit *dances* :D
