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.

    1. - sahoma - Hmmm...not quite sure what he means, but it sort of sounds like the feet will only be for the first pre-order. You might get lucky on the second hand market.
      Might be in the same boat because I can't see me having the Dolly-Dollars to afford her. The U.K. Pound is at a 30 year low against the U.S. Dollar...great for selling, not so good for buying:doh:barf

    2. It's hard to say, but even if he doesn't plan to make them later, enough requests may change his mind over time.

    3. I can't wait for the new body. I've been waiting with baited breath for its release. I really want it to hybrid but I also have a growing found was for the Narae's now.

    4. @sahoma I read those comments on flickr and I was confused by what he was saying as well. I thought perhaps it might be that they're a gift with the first pre-order and not on the second and he missed that you were asking if they would be for sale separately later. I can't imagine that he would put all that work into those feet and make them a limited first pre-order gift only. Right? I don't want to buy the doll right now but I do need bodies so will likely jump into the first preorder if it's offered in white.

    5. Bimong's English is limited so his meaning is not always clear. For a long time he did not offer bodies separately but has changed that policy so customer requests may change hispolicy in the future.

    6. Okay, maybe this is a stupid question, but which heads will fit the new body? I thought all their heads were MSD size.
       
      #186 Calfuray, Oct 7, 2016
    7. The Narae N610 and N60S heads! N6.... is a 60cm head.

      The sales dates have been announced! October 15th at midnight through the 25th!
       
      #187 nancy_schroeder_ca, Oct 7, 2016
    8. I think Narae N610 is the only one on his site and this is from his flickr:

      Narae60 N60S

      That is N60S. The neck of the body is 9.5cm.

      Oops, cross post! And his web site just got updated.

    9. The N60S head is available in light tan and normal skin.

    10. Thanks @nancy_schroeder_ca and @dollhausen! I love the new body and would like to get it someday, but I'm not too fond of the head. I wish they would make the Narae 410 head for the 60 body. I have wanted that for a long time, but I'm just not very good with MSDs.
       
      #190 Calfuray, Oct 7, 2016
    11. Yeah, MSD's are lame. Go SD or go home!

      Seriously though, I really like the new body and was thinking about using it for a hybrid but now that I've seen the price, I'm out.
       
      #191 dollhausen, Oct 7, 2016
    12. From the announcement on his site: "Head and body can be purchased separately, the price of head is 150 dollars and the price of body is 850."

      Ouch! Definitely can't buy it this time! :sweat

      Edit: I looked at the conversion to CAD, and it's 1100$! Oh boy! That would be my most expensive doll EVER. If I can ever get her <.<;;;

    13. Ouch! I knew it would be expensive with all those pieces. That's a lot of molds!

    14. :pout: just read the email too...I didn't think it would be "that" much, well at least I was hoping it wouldn't be that much. It breaks my heart to have to pass. Timing just couldn't be any worse for me. Can't wait to see final version. I'm also intrigued by all of the engineering that he mentioned.

    15. I can't afford the new body either, but maybe I'll buy it in the future when they get some more SD heads.
       
      #195 Calfuray, Oct 7, 2016
    16. For that kind of money I'll never buy one. I was worried it was gonna be over $500! But that's left earth's atmosphere as far as I'm concerned. Perhaps I'll find one used some day in future times.....or I win the lottery.

    17. I like the new Narae's face and can't wait to see her together with her body and posing. I would have preferred something a little odder as far as the face goes but I truly like her the way she is now. The price on the body,well, I expected because of all the joints. Still want her - hate to fork over all that money lol but I really don't wanna miss out on those ballet feet. I just wish I could get Soom Morga as well but thats a little off-topic for this thread so I'll stop there....

    18. I've been dreaming of a big Narae for a long time, so I'm really excited like many here. The photos look so promising! The body seems to be not only beautiful but wonderfully poseable. After seeing all the work and craftmanship going into this work I can well understand the price,though it's really *ouch* >_< I'm actually saving for LDoll now., but, it's Narae! And he estimates shippping within two weeks! And the additional feet! Wow. Maybe, if Bimong could offer layaway, it would be an easier decision for some of us?

      BTW, what do you think he means by the paid or free exchange service? Like having parts exchanged that get broken later or so?

    19. I agree with everyone here, the price really really hurts :') I was surprised myself, had to convert it and compare with my other dolls and even Fairyland's most expensive SD yet has been so much cheaper x_x
      I absolutely want her, but I still got 5 days to make my decision xD

      That's what I thought too. I think he means after-sales services, which is excellent. For a price that high, I'd like to get a warranty for it xD

    20. So Bimong put up pics of SD Dandelion on flickr. She will be a gift head for those buying body + first head. I'm really hope to see more pics soon of the heads on the body ~
