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.

Lumedoll by Dollist!

Jan 9, 2008

    1. Congrats!! Can't wait to see what you do with him. :)
       
    2. Her mix of the real skin resin holds light so well. I'm so excited to see what everyone does with their Kied's and Tania's! I still have my Vr 1 Kied. Once I get my Kied Ara that one is going to be his little brother, they look enough a like not to be twins.


      She's going to be releasing Duhr soon!:sumomo:
       
    3. Miss_Pygmalion, I'm that way over her Saiph. :( Gorgeous guy that I just never got around to getting. (I saw she just sold her personal one in the marketplace too... wanted him!)
      Now Duhr is here, and gorgeous, and... *sigh* still not enough money to get him, either. :(
       
    4. Wow, I can't believe it's taken me this long to find these gorgeous dolls, thanks to Muse Star here I am, drooling over Heka. She is so beautiful! I love the realism of the faces.
       
    5. Heka's elf ears are adorable! I would love to see Keid Ara with them too! I've been wanting to see loads of pictures; is everyone holding out? XD
       
    6. Oh my she is my total obsession! She is so beautiful. I read through this entire thread sort of hoping you would all say how ugly and broken these ones are, but there is nothing but raves (weeps). I think I'm ordering after Dolpa.
      Does anyone have the darkest Real Skin tone?
       
    7. i love Heka! i was going to get the latest soom but this doll is going to win. i totally love her. now i need to pick which resin.
       
    8. I'm in love with Heka too.. I thought I had decided on a DIM for my first BJD, but nope, this girl just had to pop up. I'll be ordering her in normal pink when I get the funds, she's too lovely not to bring home!
       
    9. I love the Keid Ara sculpt so much. His teeth are perfect. If only Dollist sold the heads separately, I would be able to bring him home. <3
       
    10. Yes I do! my Tania is in it. I can take pics if you'd like?

      Lume Database has some new entries in it! Check out those Kieds!

      @Yimmit- What's wrong with the bodies?
       
    11. I have heard that the bodies are lovely. In fact I have not heard anything negative, this is the first inkling of someone not wanting a body (or maybe Yimmit has a body in mind already).
      I don't know how I am going to wait another week to order my Heka. Wah. Maybe I won't :sneaky
       
    12. Lumedoll bodies are very beautiful, but I can see how one might consider hybridizing. They are very lean, I have the original boy body and he's much skinnier than any other 60cm SD I've come across, so that might not be to a person's preference. They are also single jointed in the knees and elbows. Their posing still looks good, but I know some people are really picky about joints and posing.

      I'm NOT saying I don't love LumeDoll's bodies. I adore Dollist and her amazing creations. I'm just saying I can understand how someone with a different aesthetic preference might look at other options.
       
    13. Yes I understand. I love Elfdolls but they are not exactly acrobats. My favorite body hands down is Shinydoll. However when I order Heka she's going to be the Real Skin so I don't think she'll match anyone.
      I don't mind skinny. Or fat. I'm not picky. This is the problem really. Elf ears however are a bonus.
      I am thinking about the darker toned real skin, does anyone have one of those?
       
    14. If you look in the Lumedoll doll database, I think it's the last entry, there's one with the tan real skin. It's a lot lighter than I expected! When I finally can get one of these guys, I definitely want one in real skin; just looks stunning!
       
    15. Thanks! I did go and look at him, he looks great. I love the skintone, and the resin quality.
       
    16. Dollist's bodies have beautiful sculpting and look like they pose very well, but it is not right for the character I have in mind for the Keid Ara sculpt. The body has more of a slim, bishounen look to it, but I guess I like the larger, masculine, broad-shouldered bodies for mature-looking heads. This is why my MD Ryu, whose sculpt usually has 60cm bodies, will actually have a 70cm+ body.

      So all in all, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the bodies. I truly love (and admire) the sculpting, especially in the chest area. It's just in personal preference for a specific character.
       
    17. You do know that the new bodies are a long way from the twig legged Kieds and Ains we remember right? I think they are a lot heavier as well. Those skinny boys do fill out those skinny jeans nicely I must say. I could see how someone might want to hybrid them out and so far the ones I've seen are stellar! But I'm pleased with mine. I have to get off my can and order my Kied Ara! Now that I've pinned down his character and regrouped the group!

      Oh is anyone going to the Creedy-Goodreau Convention? I think Lumedoll is going and if we are you'll get a chance to meet Dollist! I'll let you guys know for sure once she tells me!

      @Yummit: That makes perfect sense!
       
    18. Yummit that does make perfect sense. Since mine is a girl, that is a whole other can of worms.
      I love the Kied Ara sculpt as well. But one at a time for me!
       
    19. Keid is not produce anymore?
      I'd like to have one..
      What's the differences between him and Keid ara?
       
    20. Kied Ara is a more mature looking version of the original sculpt. He also does not have a detachable tooth plate like the original Keid.
      I know how you feel. I would love to have an original Keid as well. :{
