Thanks! The shoes are from Kingdom Doll, and the clothing from various other dolls or the pink dress actually was a commission. I like the brown wig on her too but I think I need a black wig for her so will have to get one made
Janet- you cannot get on the list. Marina closed the list and is selling off her blanks to those of us who have been on the list for 2 years or so. However, it does mean more RED in existence, so I would keep an eye on the secondary market as someone is sure to spend money they don't have on getting their doll and regret it later...
Wow, I didn't realize there was movement on this. I got on the list in 2013 and I've never heard a word. Ah well, that's a lotta green for those dolls anyway...
If you were still interested, you might want to double check which name/email you left for them? I also got onto the list in 2013- June of 2013. Here's another pic of my lovely new girl wearing among other things- some Pullip articles...(shhh don't tell Marina)
HI ladies, well my first bjd happened to be a resin Enchanted Doll (waves to EDérs I have been chatting to), I was on the wait list since 2013 and received my lovely rED in November. I have given her a faceup myself, bought some lovely wigs, and started making my own costumes and accessories. Needless to say I am hooked!!! Here is two pics of Surrea from my Flickr ...

WIP for my lovely Anise... Her bodice was "sculpted" through a computer program and 3d printed in brass
Ooooh nice, Galacticat I do feel like it's the same people on both forums, I guess that's why our thread here is not going anywhere Haha My nameless doll just left for her faceup with Angel Toast. I miss her already. Sigh...
Excellent! Angel Toast is a fabulous artist- she did my doll's face The only possible warning I might have though is I'm not sure she is sealing her work with much- the body blushing has mostly come off just by putting her outfit on- so if you have some UV resistant Mr. Super Clear than maybe it would be worth putting on the second you get your doll to avoid the same issue (unless you are just getting the face).
Eek! Well, good thing is, I do cave a can of MSC at home! Thank you for the tip! Did you ever tell her that happened, by the way?
I hadn't because I didn't want to seem like a complainer- but I realize you are right I should let her know, so I sent her a message.
I don't think that's complaining. I think this would help her improve her work and definitely helpful to other clients. As an artist, I would want to be aware of stuff like that. Somehow this is sounding very serious, but I mean it in the friendliest terms. Like it's not a big deal to seal with some extra MSC for me, I just feel like Angel Toast should know. Thank you for sending her the email!
My guess is that at least half if not more of the dolls sold to people in various countries (Japan, China, Russia) that maybe don't participate on English speaking boards so we may never know where they went. Like the book contest doll...
They must speak English, though, if they discovered Marina's dolls, no? For instance, I'm Russian I do live in LA, though. Also, I am note sure they shipped all of the dolls. Just because of the previous stop-and-go shipping of the resin line. I can see them getting very busy and pausing shipments again.
There are probably at least some non-English articles/information sources about Marina though right? I assume so if her book is sold in so many different countries in different languages. But yes, I am sure they are not rushing to get the dolls out. Just not their style and the leftover dolls are hardly a priority I think. Plus Marina may want to keep a few behind anyway just in case she wants ton do a special project. Someone on the ED doll board just got contacted so there are definitely still more dolls.
