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.

    1. Eleanor is a beautiful sculpt. I can't get over it! o_o
       
    2. Hi, I'm chizu's friend. The only time I've ever seen UV resin in person was a Ringdoll, and I must say I think it's absolutely lovely. If it's similar to Ringdoll's translucent resin it would be a huge plus. (Though I may be confused and it's not really the same thing.)

      Also, if anybody has any pictures of the posing abilities of the girls I'd appreciate it. I've only had the chance to play with a few dolls with that pantyline-level joint and it seems that you can have really great mobility there or you can have totally useless joints. If you guys have any pictures that really show me what your dolls can do I'd appreciate it. :3
       
    3. Just ordered the Eleanor sculpt!!! So exciting!!!
       
    4. I've a Crystal MSD and I have to say the body is great for an MSD on that price level. She stands and poses very well, holds her poses and is easy to handle. The double joints are fully functional and I haven't sueded her and feel there's no need to do so. The only reason why I don't buy more Island dolls is that their face sculpts don't fully convince me. I've been looking at Karl but since there's pretty much no owner pictures anywhere, it's hard to make a decision.
       
    5. I've ordered her too! I am saying goodbye to my Jane head though :(
       
    6. Thanks Ashmyt! I don't know about Chizu, but I personally think you should get a really posable doll if you can. It's good to know that they move well.
       
    7. Just jumping in here, but where do you buy Island Doll in regular resin? And, do they offer the same resin colors as the environmental resin? Thanks!
       
    8. I've ordered my dream doll - Jane (Island Skin). I'm very happy for it:-)
      I'm looking forward to seeing Eleanor here. Still nowhere to be seen are the real photos.
       
    9. To be honest she's rock solid, joints are very easy to work with and although she doesn't have any locking mechanism she can hold her poses without any problem and without even need for sueding or restringing.
      BTW there were no seams at all... more than I can say about other more expensive dolls!
       
    10. Has anyone herd of the doll Xinmeng?
      I saw a posting of this doll for sell, but I wanted to know more about it and I can't find a dang thing... not even pics.
      Is this a real IsLand Doll??
       
    11. There is no Xinmeng on the island doll website
       
    12. Miranda - She is absolutely gorgeous!
      My Jane is at home too. I love her so much :aheartbea
      Thanks for your photos!

    13. Congratulations on getting your Jane! She's lovely! And she looks quite different too in that wig. It suits her and adds to her dreamy, romantic expression. I could see her in a floaty dress, in a garden somewhere!
       
    14. Does anyone know where I can see any resin matches for Island doll snow white skin?
       
    15. Here is a picture of an Island skin Eleanor with her default factory face-up. She is nude and will remain so as I feel no connection to her at all and am in the process of selling her. I shouldn't have gotten rid of my Jane :(

    16. I recently got a tan Eric. I don't know how easy it will be to post pictures of him with an iPad, but I can try. He has the default face up too. :D
       
    17. Cool! Looking forward to seeing him :)
       
    18. Wow another Tan Eric? Myself and another person in the Island Doll waiting room are waiting on Tan Eric's. Can't wait to see pictures of yours! It'll make me even more excited for mine!
