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.

Living vicariously through your dolls?

Sep 28, 2013

    1. In a huge way!

      First of all, clothing... I can go all out in making sure they have elaborate costumes (still in the planning phase), I can change their hair color or even their eyes without them being uncomfortable (whereas I have to deal with wigs getting hot/itchy), and their bodies will never change! If I make or buy some expensive costume for myself, not only will my chances to wear it be limited, I could gain or lose weight and find that some or all of my lovely costume doesn't fit right anymore!

      Also, they don't have to shave to wear short skirts, or worry about being told they're too fat for something...

      And it's an outlet for gender related whatnot, as all my resins are male right now. They all present differently, think/feel differently... but they are all male.

      Also Vince is so darn cheerful he makes me happy. Happy is something I've always had a hard time with, so I'm glad to have his unfailing optimism.
