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.

    7. Araaa...there's also a limited logo bag (selling for 15000&#20870;) to be released at the end of January. It includes a really cute SD-size outfit, and a wig. According to the page here, they're taking up to 30 pre-orders at the winter comiket (for people who received a flyer at dolpa), and selling another 20 sets online after that.

    8. Here's a write up with a little more information from the news section at the AnimeNewsNetwok site which says:

      ----------------------------------------------------------------
      Earthian creator head doll doujinshi project.

      Famous yaoi manga-ka Yun Kouga is leading a doujinshi project called "Voleur de Rose" (VdR). VdR is dedicated to dolls and will publish a regular doujinshi* magazine by the same name that will feature manga, photos and doll patterns. They will also create and sell original Voleur de Rose dolls and accessories.

      "Voleur de Rose vol.01" (full color, 44pages, 1500yen) will be sold at Comiket 69 (Dec 29 & 30). Cover art, preface and afterword are by Kouga. There is also going to be a special limited version selling for 15000yen which comes with a doll dress.

      Should the doujinshi sell well at Comiket, VdR expects to make it available through retail shops.

      Regarding the project, Kouga is quoted as saying, "Being able to do this and that with people and dolls I love, this project is like a dream come true. I am still a novice but I will give my best!"

      The official VdR website is at www.kokonoe.com/vdr/.

      Thanks to Diem Pham for this item.

      *although generally used to refer to self-published comics, doujinshi actually means "self published magazine."
      ---------------------------------------------------------------

      Hope it's a success! :fangirl

    9. Oh dear ><! I just wrote an email to her to ask if it'll be only on sale at comiket... hopefully not XD

      Ah! Since it says that there'll be 20sets of the dresses available to be purchased online, it should mean the sale of the books too, right? ^^

      Aimee I'm not sure, but I don't think so ><

      Mayumi Yeah! x3 There are 100 sets of dresses, 50 white sets and 50 pink sets ^^ Pink sets come with a brown wig while the white ones come with a ivory blonde wig...

    11. Would love to have the magazine with the pink outfit. But, how do we order this online, thru VdR's site? Is it difficult to do so if I can't understand Japanese? Sorry for being so ignorant.

    12. OMG!!!!!

      I am going to Comiket tomorrow *_______*

      Now, I know the first booth I am going to!

    13. Since this is a doujinshi and self-published, there won't be an ISBN for it. Only way to get it would be at Comiket, or possibly through the doujinshika's website and Y!J.

      More famous circles sometimes sell their new books at stores like KAC and Animate, but I am not sure if this one would make it there.

      Doujinshi, even above dolls, are my passion. I just bought a couple of Kouga Yun doujinshi for Gundam Seed and Naruto, and now I want the doll book as well.

    15. I'm currently on vacation in Japan, went to Dolpa and then Comiket, and when I get home, I will be sure to scan some of my book. I'll also see if I have the money to maybe pick an extra. :)

      I admit, I'm rather fond of Loveless after seeing some of the artwork and watching the anime and would love to meet Kouga-sensei :oops:

      I so need Soubi and Ritsuka dolls. I already bought cat ears and tails at Dolpa for my MSD Yuuta. <3
