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 Royal Senior Delf Discussion Thread

    1. WOW he is cool and cute! Is that a real laptop?!

      His sweater is so cute! And the presence is likely to be enormous. I may not be able to handle the weight, but I think when I go out, I'll protect my house for you and tell you if I came back safely!

    2. Thanks, @Change ! I think he might actually be a pretty good room guardian! (Especially protecting against people who are a little scared of BJDs!) :whee:

    3. The only dealer I can think of that does super long layaways is BJDivas, I know they do layaways that can last over a year if you want them to. I do suggest reading through their (as well as all dealers) customer service reviews in this forum, though. Everyone has a different experience!

    5. Just Lyle and Darcia hanging out, lmao! I thought I would take a pic of my first LUTS doll (SDF Abadon from 2008) and my big guy. ❤️ A kind of take on the ~how it started/how it’s going meme. xD

      l’m also excited to start my vacation in a couple of days as me and my husband are finally going to be able to get to the city to do some shopping so I’m going to be looking around for some toddler/child clothing that’ll fit Lyle… hopefully LOL!

      A fast snap of Aleph Major in Boden. These items are both Size 4. The pants are baggy af but fit in the leg; they're drawstring, so they can be worn, but they give off a casual vibe. The tunic top is larger than I was hoping, but you can see that the shoulder fit is not terrible. Aleph has finished his afternoon espresso, lucky dog.

      My verdict, after several months with the Giant Man: this enormous guy is not going to be for all collectors, simply because of the sheer weight. But I LOVE seeing him just chilling in my space. I get a serotonin boost whenever I see him. I am a happy Royal Senior Delf owner. :D

    7. That size is just way too scary for me, but I also do not have room for it. I was wondering though whether or not a doll this large would fit in with other smaller dolls, an actually it does although it is way much larger!

      This is perfect for a giant kind of character, or a different kind of species that are this large, like the Na'vi to a human!

    8. I'm just a lurker in this thread as a lover of giant dolls, but I had to say I got a serotonin boost just from seeing your pic! He looks so cozy, it made me smile :aheartbea

    9. Thanks...! He's really made himself at home here. Now, if he could just help with utilities.... :whee:

    10. @green_judy You're so right about just the presence of the doll is a serotonin boost, lmao! My giant dude is just so fun to pose him around the house and just seeing him hanging out is awesome. I'm trying to think of some jump scare places to set him up for my husband LOL

      Here's Lyle just waiting for me to do his makeup, lmao! He unfortunately didn't get any new clothes because with all the wild fires taking over Canada we had to cancel our city trip, but next time, boy will be spoiled!

      New Royal just dropped!

      Meet ARES :D

      He is really lovely--I love the expression in the eyes. But for me, by far the most dangerous part is that this incredible outfit, including the sword and sword hand, is AVAILABLE SEPARATELY. :...(

    12. The size and proportions of these boys are beautiful. I love the big dolls but after owning a Dollmore Trinity I do not love the weight and bulk of that size, this seems like a good compromise as he is more slender and not as chunky as the trinity. I really like Mars and Saturn.
      I wonder if there's any chance they would release a female companion of this size, that would be really cool.

    13. Once you get over the general 'giant' shock, he's quite agreeable and poseable, in my opinion. The upscaling of the Grand Senior body works pretty well, I think. Speaking of Trinities... I just saw the Trinity Man on Dollmore's site, clocking in at 122 cm (!!!). Seems these are meant to be to scale with the Trinity girls...?
       
    14. Royal Trousers?
      I've done okay getting my Royal Mars various shirts and sweaters for toddlers--but pants have been a problem. That 13-inch waist and those long, long legs...! I am tempted to commission some clothes for him. I'd love to hear suggestions and recommendations for makers. Who might be up for dressing a house brownie? ;)
       
    15. Does anyone know what these dolls weigh? I read through the thread fairly quickly, so I'm sorry if I've missed it! I'm so curious. They're more than half my size, but I love their faces!
       
    16. I haven't put my Royal Mars on a scale, but he sure is hefty. He's a two-armed lift, no question. I've never handled a Maine Coon cat but... maybe in that department? I feel like he weighs less than a toddler of equivalent height... but not by much.

      Here's Aleph in his new winter coat. This coat was made for a toddler and unfortunately exhibits some bulkiness that interferes a little with the scale illusion. But the fit is pretty good. He is ready for the next storm...
