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.

Loongsoul 1/3 doll discussion Part 5

Jul 29, 2021

    1. @bickazer I meant it! :D I really like it. Gotta go looooooooads myself XD

      @bluebellaen Are you? XD

      I'm personally still eyeing Shi Ze, but he's not limited and not sure if I really need him XD

      @IzabethS Ooooh surprise unpacking XD Please keep us updated, rather excited for your boy :3
       
    2. @Snowy well Ying Zhou is super gorgeous, but I'll have to pass on this one… Can’t afford to order every doll Loongsoul releases with their “monthly” new doll release schedule lol. I already used up all my dolly budget this year with ZhuZhao and Xuandi, and the Ginkgo boy Ye Ying, so I think from now to the end of the year, I really have to work on my self-discipline and stay away from that “add to cart” and “checkout” buttons on Alice’s Collections or Clover-singing ;), though I may order just his outfit for one of my other 73cm dolls :)
       
    3. @bluebellaen Sounds like a plan and if you can secure that outfit on it's own... ;) It's not like LS isn't currently feeding us new ones regulary. Pretty certain if the boys from your collection reject the outfit, there will be another who'd more than willingly move in to make it his ;)

      Yes, all those three aren't exactly buget friends. Crossing fingers (for us all) that there won't be more temptations that twist us around their elegant fingers and suck us dry like leeches ^^°

      CS is really bad with enabling me to by so many dolls XD

    4. Hey! Loong soul makes me so sad... like when you think they've reached perfection, they just improve themselfs more like how do they do that
       
    5. I will for sure! Both boxes have been sent off from Shanghai, so now it's just a matter of time to see how and when they arrive, and how much customs I'll need to pay...
       
    6. @IzabethS XD My girl also just left Shanghai. I'm kind of imaging both of your boxes racing for you, trying to get ahead of each other, while my girl just wants to get to me before either gets to you XD

      @Concf Hahaha, right? They just strive to become better and better, aiming to lighten us from our burden of too much money XD
       
    7. @Snowy - Box 1 is ahead of box 2 by a day, but both are on an airplane now haha! We should totally try for a meet one of these days, I could take a train down to your meet spot! I can't wait to see your new girl too
       
    8. @IzabethS my poor girl is still stuck at the airport waiting to catch a flight. XD seems like she has no chance to win this race. Strongly suspecting she got distracted by food and is no longer in a hurry. She got her priorities straight.

      Will be exciting too see if you get yours on the same day or if there will be a ‚winner‘ after all xD


      Oh! True! I kind of forgot you are also from Austria! That would be great :D
       
    9. Does anyone know what resin matches with Loongsoul's imported white? I am NOT feeling the body he is on. It's sturdy and nice, but not my thing. However, he is the strangest color white I have seen in a while. XD I used to only buy my dolls in white skin but I've never seen anything quite like this. It's almost like he has a blue undertone? His head is also so small! I just think it'd be better on a different body. I'm worried hybriding him would be impossible, but I'm hoping I can find some help if anyone knows anything.

      The current white I have is Volks, IOS, Switch, Fairyland and none of them are anywhere close. :XD:

    10. Strange, I just got one tracking number. Wonder if it’s because I’m in the us? It may be cheaper for them to ship in one huge box?

      Y’all! I’m gutted! My black dragon got sent back to New Clover Singing! (At least that’s what I think it says). It had a “returned security” notice, but a day later released from import customs, but then a couple of days after that, it went to “ peace in the sales office”, then the same day “return to the proper cast”. I’m very confused, but China Post support says that means it went back to New Clover Singing”…..:...( I’m waiting to hear back from her, but I didn’t have any issues with the body I also ordered. It got here in July just fine.

    13. My girl is stuck at "Airline reception" aka waiting to catch a flight since 15th. Meh.
      I knew transporting situation out of China was bad, but I didn't expect this.

      @Alicat Crossing fingers and best of luck to get your package asap. This really sucks :(
       
    14. My Black Dragon packages are stuck at the same spot since the same day. Maybe they’ll catch a flight together?

    15. Oh no!!! It really sucks for everyone! I don’t really understand what’s going on, as I just had a body delivered just fine in July. It came through FedEx, and not EMS though.
       
    16. @IzabethS Woha, at least they are having fun together. I don't even wanna know what mayhem they come up with while killing boredom. It would be cool for them to head out together thought ;) Just cements the idea, that we totally need to meet up.
      I have plans to hit Vienna next year anyway - you got chinese and japanese gardens/parks that I must visit for photos XD

      @Alicat Yeah, really not a fun situation right now.
      Far as I know production stops due to lockdowns have made serious dents in a lot of people's storages and now everyone is trying franatically to get their items shipped asap. Which means there currently is at least trice the amount of requests for transport than usual. (At least that's the kind of info I have due to my own work.) I'm assuming this would also hit flight transport sooner or later and packages like ours getting pushed back for others with higher priority.
      That's just me making assumations based on the infos I have.

    17. A heads up and maybe a hint for @IzabethS to check tracking too XD

      My girl - after ghosting me since 15th - finally moved. Like. Teleporting style. Fwoph. Appears in my countries customs and leaves right away again.
      Curious to see if she's coming to raid my home tomorrow or sometime next week. (Crossing fingers for tomorrow XD)
       
    18. Sadly my tracking hasn't updated yet since the 15th, @Snowy.

      Also thanks for the heads up though and I hope you're girl makes it tomorrow!
       
    19. @IzabethS I'm kinda sure they boarded the same plane. Maybe they just did the 'ladies first' thing and then went into the weekend. She was checked in and out around midday and that's usually when they finish up for the week.

      Thanks for the wishes. I'm not really counting on it, but I have tiny spark of hope that I can go crazy on the sewing machine so she'll have something to wear XD
