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.

Luts Baby Delf - 40cm

Oct 7, 2015

Page 29 of 29
    1. Don’t give up hope @Violet2020 ! I purchased several of my Baby Delfs secondhand. Hopefully when you’re ready in the future, the right doll will come along.

      It did feel like they haven’t been promoted in a long time - fewer limiteds, the clothes stock getting discounted a lot, etc. The DearSDs for Volks are still so popular, it’s surprising that Luts wasn’t able to tap into that market more. Or maybe as Volks made their chubby babies more accessible, collectors chose that line more? (As a collector of both I would love if they could both thrive!)

    2. Looks like Luts is also discontinuing their last remaining Senior Delf Boy body and the "new" version of the older style Super Senior Delf body. Along with losing the Baby Delf line, I hate to say that Luts has lost its place as my favorite company as I'm not a fan of the aesthetic direction they've taken.

      Time to look over my finances to see if I can afford a Baby Delf or two before they're gone.

    3. It's nice to have a variety of body types available, I have a Baby Delf and two DearSD bodies (though they have OT heads). I'm the same with my SD-or 1/3 sized kiddies - I like a variety of builds and heights so they don't look like they're all the same size and shape even though it's hard to find bodies in that size with child-shaped bodies rather than more mature figures.

      Fingers crossed. I know for certain I'm not going to be able to afford any dolls until s the latter half of next year due to foolishly overcommitting my time and finances to events for the first 5 months of 2025

    4. If I can swing for 2, I want Lily, Violet, and/or Rose. One would be in brown and the other would be in rosey brown or one of the other newer tan options (if they will let me). I've been wanting a tan/brown baby delf for years but never pulled that trigger. Plus secondhand they don't really seem to pop up in those resin colors.

    5. Thank you! I hope you're right and they'll show up someday. Different color or not. I don't think I'd care that much.

      Agreed. Their new aesthetic doesn't appeal to me either...

    6. And you could always dye them.

      I've dyed both my DearSD bodies to a better colour match for their hybrid heads, ther's no reason it shouldn't work for BabyDelf too.

    7. My "to dye" list is already about 4 dolls long so probably better if I don't add to that as some have been waiting a while. But I can always get brown and the darkest tan option since they're the same price for that upcharge anyways. I just miss when brown was no upcharge.

    8. Yep, it's a pain

    9. Sadness! I just found out that Luts no longer sells this line! I was debating for so long about getting my first one too but life and reasons kept getting in the way. Hopefully, the secondhand market will be kind to me someday.:...(:atremblin
