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.

Mori 9 Dolls

Apr 29, 2021

    1. I have decided to put away some money. In case any new colab would happen.

    2. For those who got Austaras or Veles in NS, what body did you use for them? I know ID75 is supposed to be a good match but they're not readily available so just curious if there are other alternatives that would match the resin color/neck measurements.
       
    3. Took some pics of Andras (Mori9's Austaras) today because I finally changed his outfit :XD: My handsome man!!! I'm still so obsessed with him, hehehe.

      @purplepaws I'm no help because mine is on an Idealian body (the 72cm one though). They are approximately the same size as an Iplehouse EID so I've always wondered if Austaras and Veles would look good on that! No idea about resin color or neck girth, but proportionately it seems like a viable option. I vaguely remember that Bonelace had a photo of Veles on some other body (might have been LLT?) but I can't find it... maybe you could ask them?

    4. @overlordu I saw him on IG! He looks so good! Would love to get a Mori 9 Austaras or Veles one day but market will always be scarce as I asked the artist and they don't ever plan to re-release the same sculpt as they have too many sculpts they make in the backlogs (and also for other companies). But I am just as happy to see pics of them so please continue to post much more of him! :D

    5. @overlordu Thank you for the info! Your boy is amazing!! How do you like him on the 72 body? I've been looking at DF-H bodies since they offer resin matching I believe but also want to see what bodies everyone else got! :)

    6. Thanks guys!! :aheartbea Here's another photo :blush

      @purplepaws Personally I love the 72 body! I think it's perfect! I'm sure he looks fantastic on the 75 too, but the 72 definitely looks proportionate even though it's shorter than what Mori had in mind. Are you looking at DF-H's 75cm body? The neck girth is half a cm smaller than Idealian, which is probably a good thing. Austaras fits well on the Idealian neck but it does look slightly too thick from some angles.

    7. Anyone here try for Hayato? I can't imagine how many emails she must have gotten lol. Hoping I get him as I want to see if he will fit on The Voice body.

      However, wondering if there are any slimmer bodies than Soom ID people have tried too? *Goes off to hunt on IG*
       
    8. I actually managed to get Hayato! It was an unexpected surprise to see the winning email.
      I tried Austaras on the Voice body and the resin is slightly pinker in comparison but otherwise, the proportions look good.

    9. Yay congrats! I got a Hayato winning email last night too! Also thanks for letting me know!! I'm super excited to give Hayato the body now. He is going to be an OC of mine an MMA style fighter wolf boy so the body is literally perfect for him :3

      I also managed to get an Austaras on the second hand market probably going to try him on a 72cm Miracle doll body and see how it fits/looks for my OC. I wanted something a bit slimmer which is hard to find in the 75~ size range. If it doesnt work I have another boy it could work for so not a complete loss.
       
    10. Omg congrats on your Hayatos!! To be honest I was expecting another sweep of people on DoA saying they hadn't won one. So excited to see them on here!! :aheartbea What skin tone did you guys get?

      @purplepaws Ohh... do you have pics of Austaras on the Voice body!? :chibi:chibi I would love to see that!!

      @RebelViva Congrats on your Austaras as well! :D

    11. @overlordu Thanks!! :love Admiring your boy manifested my own for me haha

      Also I got my Hayato in WS as I wanted it to match the extra WS The Voice body I have coming in the fall.

      ETA - Seems like I've seen quite a few Western people on IG saying they got Hayato so looks like she was able to release a bit more this time. There is also people selling extras they will get on Twitter right now as people had friends, etc enter for them. So if anyone missed out they could probably get one there.
       
    12. Congratulations on the Hayato's! I didn't enter, I felt that Hayato really did look like the two sculpts she released with Universedoll, slightly more realistic then Veles and Austaras who I liked because they are more stylised in general with bigger eyes and the facial anatomy flattened down a bit. But - I did find find a Veles secondhand! So he will be coming son, but will ahve to goaway in a cupboard becuase he is a christmas present.

    13. Here you go:

      Don't mind the lack of eyes/wig. I'm still working on figuring out how to style him. :sweat
      Niuniu got a larger neck hole so his head sits flush to the neck while Austaras kinda sticks out but other than that, I think it looks good. Except the head is much pinker. Kind of hard to tell from the photo.

    14. @purplepaws Oh my god! The noise I made when I saw this. :lol: He DOES look good, wow!!! The neck thing sounds like a typical hybrid problem, nothin that the right wig can't hide hohoho! Are you going to keep him on this body?

      @RebelViva Well, if the above photo is anything to go by your Hayato is going to look awesome on that body! Hehehe :love And I'm glad more Western people seemed to get heads this time! Maybe after getting bombarded with all the sad people who lost Austaras and Veles, she decided to cast a larger quantity.

      @Sillypeach Congrats on nabbing Veles! Is he a gift for someone else? Or you just have the most self control ever and are putting him away as a Christmas present to yourself!? :XD:

    15. @purplepaws omg he looks amazing! I’m so excited for Hayato on The Voice body now :D.

      I can’t wait to see what everyone else does with their Hayato!

    16. Probably not. This body already have an owner :atremblin But I love how it poses and all and if they ever offered the body separately, I'd buy another one. His shoulders are a bit of a problem when it comes to finding clothes though haha
       
    17. I got my Austaras today! I wanted to test out The Voice body as well since I have in WS. There is a difference as Mori 9 is lighter/whiter than The Voice which is a bit more yellow/darker. You can tell in some pics and not in others depending on lighting.

      He just looks amazing on the body like a greek god. Even more excited for my Hayato now! Haha if I wasn't so set on my Austaras character having a slimmer body he and Hayato would probably have to fight over the extra WS body lol. My The Voice Ying is almost back from faceup so enjoying Austarus on this body for now while I can.

      Seriously cannot stop looking at him °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

      One more pic, you can see the difference in resin color better in this one.

    18. Omgggg @RebelViva !! He looks soooo goooood!! :aheartbea :aheartbea Congrats!! What kind of faceup and character do you have in mind for him??
       
      • x 1
    19. Thank you!! <3

      His name is Lucien, he is the older brother of my Vael (Morolab2 Ikyung) and Clovis (Luts Howl). He is an illegitimate Prince who serves as their General and he is low key scheming to kill his brothers for the crown :sneaky. This sculpt is so versatile I feel he can both do gentle and devious well depending on the faceup. Haha he looks so peaceful/stoic in these pics though I almost feel bad for making him evil :lol:.

      This isn't his wig or eyes though (thank you for the eye tips again!), but close as he is blue eyed but more darker blonde/brown hair. I purchased all 3 bros the same eyes and waiting for them to come from TB. I'm going to end up purchasing all 3 the same wig too and just style it in different ways once I find a good one (or build up the courage to learn how to crochet a lace front to make them).
