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 PID Discussion V. 01

Apr 15, 2013

    1. Erm... I quite like the super-stylized Monster High doll aesthetic, and I love chibies, but I feel like these really miss even that mark. That has GOT to be the tiniest, pointiest doll nose in existence. o.O

      Yeah, can't say I'm a fan. Happy other people like them, but I hope they'll give someone else the chance to design heads for these bodies too (kind like they do with the nYID girls - some are super pointy, others a little bit more rounded with a more defined nose and softer features), because I feel like they could be quite irresistible with their giant heads and teeny tiny high heel feet (I'm a sucker for tiny ladies I can dress up), but none of the current offerings are even remotely doing it for me.
       
    2. They look as if they may be able to wear clothes of The Barbie Variety derilan, the look like they have that type of slim tiny body. Even though they are only eight inches, some puny dolls can wear Barbie stuff. Who can say. I wish I did not like them, but they are just too cute.
       
    3. erinelise I don't think they'll be able to wear fashion doll shoes - the high heel feet have sculpted high heels from what I can tell of the teaser pic and IH's comments. It would be nice if they could though!
       
    4. They clarified about the limited thing:

      "We will release other PID heads in the future but they will be all limited. All PIDs will be limited and we won't release them as basic dolls."

      I hope I like future heads better. The body is so cute.
       
    5. oh well thats ok then. i can wait for a head i like better and still get one later. the body was cute. the heads just weren't my style. cute, but not for me. with any luck they will appeal to enough people that iple will want to release new heads soon, and take our requests under consideration!
       
    6. More pictures are up now.

      Dorothy

      Twinky

      Ryu-Ah

      Blooming

      I have to hand it to Iplehouse because they are beautifully rendered; however, a head this size is not to my liking.

      Now if they do considerably smaller sized heads later for the Pixies I might well fall for them.
       
    7. Same here I would just love a more proportionately sized PID head, maybe 3-4" wig size? I kind of like Twinkie (she sort of reminds me of my Blythe dolls) but not enough to buy her.
       
    8. Not my thing-- I'm a little surprised at he choice with these ones. I was hoping for some heads that were to Iplehouse's usual style with them-- I really do love the look of the body.
       
    9. I am liking them more after seeing the additional pictures. I'm still not planning to get one of these particular sculpts, though I might change my mind if they show different skin tones or face-ups, or even the faces blank. I think Blooming may have potential.

      I am now even more in love with their little bodies, though. So cute O_O
       
    10. I like them more after seeing the proportions of the hips to the head - it looks more balanced than I thought it would.
       
    11. A fullset costs over $350, that's pretty steep for this size.
       
    12. ; A ; So cute! The headsize difference IS weird, I'll admit it; I'm used to my Pukifee's giant egg head by now though so nothing bothers me anymore.
       
    13. Ok. Right. I want Dorothy. Full-set. Question is: Try to save some money and go for NS without face-up? Or take RS with face-up? I'm assuming the pics are showing Dorothy in real skin, right?
       
    14. I thought that Dorothy was shown in the Light Tan? I love that you can chose the skintone.
      Khell, you can do a layaway for them if you needed to.
       
    15. I think Dorothy is shown in Lt Tan- that's too dark for real skin.

      They're up for ordering along with the shoe parts and some new mohair wigs.
       
    16. PID clothes are up now too -- a few more outfits and the animal suits: http://iplehouse.com/home/shop/list.php?ca_id=6010c0&nhn1=en

      I have to say, it kinda bothers me that the white PIDs are all sweet and innocent while the black PID is black leather kinky. Obviously the clothes are interchangeable and there is a white doll depicted in a shorty short outfit on the clothing page but gee, IH, stereotype much?
       
    17. I love them! ...but I'm trying to stop buying BJDs, I'm running out of room... On the other hand, I still have a dollhouse that has only one Lati Yellow inhabitant. Do you guys think these pixies would be to big for a dollhouse? They are 3cm taller than Lati Yellow, but their bodies look very petite and slim.
       
    18. I'm getting Dorothy in NS, with full-set and face-up and everything. I'm just so tired of waiting for LLT's Ludwig, y'know, and it's been aaaaaages since I last ordered an Iplehouse-doll. And yes, she's expensive but after saving up for Ludwig for more than a year now, I can afford it. Phew. Can't wait to see what she'll look like in NS. And - I'm totally calling her Natasha, just because to me, that doll looks so much like Black Widow channeling Catwoman ... :D
       
    19. AWw these guys are so cute!

      When ordering the heel parts thought, it doesn't have the option to match the skin color you order.... It would be awkward for a tan doll with white feet in heels @.@
       
    20. The body is cute, and I like some of the faces, but their heads are way too big. And Keladry, I think they would be too big for a normal scale dollhouse. They are nine inches and dollhouse ceilings are normally 7 or 8 inches.
