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 Fashion Doll Discussion - Part 12

Apr 23, 2021

    1. Does Iplehouse still have their FIDs available every two months? So they are available this month and then again in July, is that correct?

    2. @LyanneNZ thanks so much!

      Does anyone have pictures of Miho and Aliyah? They're on my wishlist. I used to have Aliyah but I sold her years ago :atremblin

    5. Does anyone have a FID Bibianne and a JID Violet they'd be so kind to photograph together? With consideration of the different head sizes, I've been wanting to compare the sculpts beside each other for a character.... I'm more used to regular msd scale, so I'm considering violet as an alternative, but bibianne enchanted me originally!

    11. @MaleficentMrsofEvil Sorry for the delay in replying! Yes, this is one I painted :) My Mum knitted the sweater, for my CED dolls years ago now so it's a little large for our FID dolls but it works. Raffine is definitely lovely in person. It's funny, she is not one that I immediately would pick and yet in both small and large size they are ones that I have loved painting and enjoy photographing too. Yes she should be on your wish list haha

      Extra photo of her while you write her sculpt name down ;)

    12. @LyanneNZ - oh my. She is going on my WTB list. She is so stunning. I love her. Thank you!
       
    13. To anyone who ordered and received FIDs in the last few months, is the 60 to 90-making period how long you waited for your doll? Or is it longer than that?

    14. @PinkBear - not FIDs, but I have ordered from Iplehouse pretty frequently.
      Pet doll puma, blank - 60 days.
      Doll Choice normal resin Elle, blank - 60 days.

      My experience has been that if I order blank dolls, Iplehouse has a quick turnaround. Face-ups delay the process significantly.

      I can't remember if Iplehouse told me directly, but I've read in a couple places that their in-house face-up artist left, and they have to contract out face-ups now, which means they have to ship the head to someone else to get the face-up done.

    15. @MaleficentMrsofEvil Thank you so much for answering my question and for that info on the faceups. This was so helpful!
