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.

Mythdoll News : Leroi is back and he has a twin!

Feb 17, 2006

    1. For everyone who missed their chance the first time around : Little Leroi is back in stock! 10 units again, though the price has been increased 50$... They added a picture with faceup (not sure this is new, but he looks so cute!) and the web site has improved too!

      Myth doll has also released a new version of Leroi called Leroi Twins. It will have the same asexual body (angel) and head but in a paler skin tone (pure skin).

      Both dolls come with the wig and clothes pictured on the website!

    2. They had some comparison pics up of Leroi and a DoD, and they're about the same size. Leroi is slightly taller and slimmer, iirc, but I'm not sure.
       
    3. I kind of wish there was a bit more explanation given for him/her. But maybe she's a whiter skin toned version since under her name it says something about skin tone?
       
    4. That is exactly what I was thinking. I wonder if this means as soon as little leroi is out of stock they will just have leroi twins at the slightly higher price? I hope not! I have not been able to order my leroi yet.
       
    5. Um How big is she? And the price... is that for the doll itself including the head? *with or with out eyes and wig not sure*
       
    6. I wish they had some nude pictures and a description. If it is a white skinned girl I will have to break down and get her along with little leroi
       
    7. I might think about geting one... if it had more information >.< She/he kinda size of dod/msd it seems .. lol the twins one looks like a girl... but then the naked pics are so small its hard to tell.. it might be a-sexual @.@... also... confused, its $180 for the doll and the head right? not including the eyes, and face up?
       
    8. Honestly, no one but Leori himself can answer you this. For the first round of Little Leori's that are appearing (mine should be here Monday! ^.^) Leori ended up stringing him and sent a wig and outfit too. Since those were never in the description and Little Leori was supposed to be unstrung, I've been arguing mentally if this is supposed to be standard and Leori's difficultly with English is to blame, or if it was a gift for us attacking the site before it was really supposed to be working and ordering more dolls then were really supposed to be ordered.

      I'd recommend e-mailing Leori your question. It may take him a few days since it seems that he's having a friend help him with his letters (and he's also probably busy since this is a new buisness) but he's very nice and will respond.
       
    9. Thanks for that link to the comparisons... very useful.

      I have a shipping question for those who bought one... What do you put down as shipping choice and price? I'm trying to check out but I'm now on a page that's asking:
      "Please specify your preferred courier in the following box, with the price you quoted if possible. In this format:
      Courier, Address of Hong Kong Office, Telephone number or Website, the price you quoted."

      Er, say what?

      I'm used to companies actually having a set format not choosing one for myself. It does recommend using DHL but I've never used them before and when I checked out the link Mythdoll provided, it asked for weight and box dimensions, of which I haven't the slightest clue.

      Any thoughts or useful tips here?

      Thanks,
      Loki's Mom
       
    10. The first round had that problem as well and I blame the fact that Leori's company is so new and I doubt he's worked everything out yet. Just go to the shipping service you would like (Leori ended up sending everything through EMS for the first round) and figure out your shipping. Multiply by 4% for Paypal (Leori doesn't have a buisness account yet) and send it to him. For the people like me who paid for DHL (which is more expensive then EMS) Leori should be sending us refunds as soon as he has the chance.
       
    11. Im usually pretty good at working out things , but
      I couldnt work out the shipping to the UK at all :(

      I paid for my doll and asked them me to tell me how much I owed for shipping
       
    12. I think Leroi ended up using EMS, at least he did with mine...
      I couldn't figure out the shipping thing either, I paid for the doll, and asked to be sent the shipping total along with my address (in CA).

      He actually didn't get back to me until after he mailed the doll, (before I sent shipping payment!... new business owner...how trusting...) and this is what he wrote for EMS shipping to California USA:

      [$HK210 + $HK75(collecting fee)] X 1.04 (4% paypal service charge).

      and a link to the collecting fee info: (basically they charge to come and pick up your shipment from your business
      http://www.hongkongpost.com/speedpost/eng/services/pickup_service/index.htm

      [$27.06 + $9.67 (collecting fee)] x 1.04 (I think this was supposed to be
      .04) (4% paypal service charge).

      [$36.73] + $1.47 (4% paypal service charge).
      $38.20

      and since I used XE to do the conversions and I've heard that it isn't a good conversion chart, plus banks charge their own fees for currencey conversion, I sent
      $42.00US even (added about 10%) just to make sure, and included a note saying that if it wasn't enough to email me.)

      I haven't heard back from him, ('course, it's only been a couple days) but the price seemed in keeping with the average EMS charge for this size of doll.
       
    13. Here's the reply I received from Leroi :

      Leroi twins is the same body(angel body) with Little Leroi but pure skin(NOT WHITE SKIN).

      They will come home with the outfit and wig which as themselves photograph, so it is difference between them.

      And, we create the girl and boy now, they will meet you in the near future.

      Sincerely,

      Leroi


      The last sentence is particularly intriguing! Looks like they will be releasing actual boy and girl bodies!
       
    14. Leroi makes a darling girl. I tried several girly wigs on my Sparrow on Monday and they all looked great! :) The body is asexual, there are no girl nor boy bits. Yes, the price includes the body and the head, the outfit and the wig, but no face up, no eyes. Leroi takes 14mm-16mm eyes. I have 16mm in my Sparrow.
      And yes, Leroi used EMS for all of us that got the first round of the little angel. That worked well, my little angel came to me in about 6 days from HongKong via EMS. It was a little strange to be deciding which courier to use and to figure cost of shipping myself, but then I remember that Leroi and Mythdoll are so new that it must all be strange to them.
