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 Toyko Story dolls discussion! New SID boy Storm & SID girl Soo

Jul 7, 2010

    1. My Strom is on shipping as of this morning! Yea!!!

      Jackie, your Tedros is gorgeous.
       
    2. Congrats Jackie! He's wonderful! But.... free gifts? Do tell - that's exciting news too!

      And Baakay - your enthusiams level is perfect, PERFECT, PERFECTPERFECT!!!! THERE CAN NEVER BE TOO MUCH! My guy made it to San Francisco when I checked tracking this morning - so I'll continue obsessive checking hoping he will make it by tomorrow to me.

      Congrats to all who are now "on shipping" for STORM!!!! :love:

      Oh good grief, is there a way to delete this second identical post???? Blame it on the early hour here and my air headedness with Tedros so close. Thought I hadn't hit the post button on the first one. GAHHHHHHHHHHHHH -
       
    3. For my free gifts I got a wig and pair of the watermelon cargo pants.............wouldn't have been my first choice, but they were free, LOL! It wasn't nearly 10% of my order though as they said the free gifts were going to be when they first announced them, and it seems some others got 3 or more items free, so I was a little confused................ Oh well, I'm thrilled with Tedros, and that's the most important part. (and I'm not complaining................the free gifts were a very nice gesture on Iple's part, and I did win one of the free swords as well, so maybe that counted towards the "10% free"?
       
    4. Congrats to all!!! It's so wonderful to read all your happy postings about your arriving dolls! My Tedros will take some more time, need to pay last remaining layaway at the end of this month. After I saw your first pictures of him, I wished I didn't use layaway!
       
    5. Congratulations, JinCIcy, for your new gorgeous boy!! :D And also congrats to Patrice S for your shipping notice!! :D

      I can't wait for the dolls to be arriving! >w<
       
    6. W00t! [​IMG] Congrats Jackie! Mencheres' new shell is every bit as exquisite as the first! That is a relief. Welcome home again, Mencheres!

      And congrats LadyNyssa on your man's arrival too!

      Aww! Maybe so-- maybe they do count the swords, or maybe they count 10% of the cost of the doll or something. I'm in the same boat, ordered a ton of other stuff with my Tedros. I don't care so much about the quantity, but for the choice, am secretly hoping they'll take the initiative to look in my Wishlist. ^~ Ocrap, better go update it.
       
    7. Congrats JinCIncy on your Tedros!

      And Patrice S on your Storm soon to arrive.

      Keep the spam coming for those of us still waiting. Layaway is a blessing and a curse sometimes. :lol:
       
    8. Congrats to those who received their track number or their doll.
      Thanks for sharing the Tedros pics, he's gorgeous.
      Iple answered me that mine would be shipped within the week, maybe tomorrow I hope. But seeing the pics of the newly arrived Tedros makes more impatient.
       
    9. Now I wish I had ordered Tedros! Has anyone received Storm yet?
       
    10. I'm pretty sure the free gifts were to be ~10% of the value of the doll only, not the total order. Those watermelon pants are heinous, though! They'll very much be up for trade if I end up w/a pair!

      Hopefully they'll look at what I ordered for my Akando & consider what my aesthetic is for the model body Tedros that is on the way.
       
    11. Woo Hoo!!!! My Asa and Soo are on shipping.
       
    12. Congratulations everybody with your dolls (and those on the way)! Unfortunately, I missed Tokyo story, but I'm saving for ASA right now! She's just so beautiful and special, any edition of her. Iplehouse are amazing when it comes to making different ethnic sculpts. I think they are getting better and better each day! But for me, ASA and CHERIE are my absolute favorites, and I'm saving for them both:).

      This is my Soo, whom I have dressed in a different outfit. Her Tokyo Story outfit I am leaving in the box as I really don't feel like trying to figure out how to put it on her. Changing her feet to the heel feet was a challenge when I lost the elastic in her left leg trying to get the metal hook to go thru the hole. She is wonderfully made and I am very satisfied with my purchase with Iplehouse.
       
    14. Oh your Soo is so lovely! Congrats on getting her.
       
    15. Congrats on your lovely Soo, Deri!!! Would love to see more pictures of her.

      And yes! My Tedros did come in today. Took a couple of quick pictures here - hope to have more time to play with him tomorrow, but this is what I have for now. Oh free gifts - a lilac wig (not to his taste - LOL), a pair of dark slacks and the "shorts" he is wearing in the picture.

      He looks a little angrier to me then some of the other Tedros I have seen, but that's okay. I like a guy with a little fury in him. :D
       
    16. Mysticaldolldreams...oooooh he's gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I like the attitude he has. :x LOL. And I actuallly have a pair of those briefs...they come in handy for EID guys who want to lounge around on a hot summer day. ;)

      (Now, if I can only get my Tokyo Tedros paid off! :...()
       
    17. luluna- Thanks I really love my Soo, I will definately take more pics of her tomorrow

      mysticaldolldreams- I did do a box opening of her in the Box Opening thread, no real commentary cause I was in awe of her the whole time. I was trying to listen for her to speak, but so far she has not told me her name. I think she is in some sort of shock from her long journey. Her shipping box had seen better days and that maybe the cause of her silence.
       
    18. ... Lilac wig. :mwahaha *snork!* Oh sorry, I just cannot imagine that stunningly thunderous Tedros in lilac!!

      Congratulations Mysticaldolldreams-- he is gorgeous! Wow, his eyebrows are definitely on the angry side, even for a Tedros. Such an impressive faceup. I love the coloring. (Hope my lad looks just as well without his beard... I'm still having to go on imagination to envision what he'll look like!)

      Also, I personally think that the katana + holster make the perfect accent to red leopard-spotted briefs. :aheartbea I love those shorts. Stupid underwear is sexy. (My Akando wears them for Valentine's Day pinup photoshoots. XD)
       
    19. I went back and checked the Summer announcement and the gifts are based on the size of the doll:

      Gift worth 60,000~80,000 won for one EID doll ordered
      Gift worth 50,000~70,000 won for one SID doll ordered
      Gift worth 40,000~60,000 won for one YID doll ordered
      Gift worth 20,000~40,000 won for one JID doll ordered
       
    20. Oh you lucky few. Congrats! I'm not a fan of regular Tedros with the usual skin options. Tan Tedros is hot. Tan, angry Tedros is "whoa baby!"
