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. It's my first time visiting this thread, but I just thought I'd add my excitement over the new Narae body. I have been watching Bimong's work on her, and I'm so very in love! It looks so expressive, and the jointing is really fascinating!

    2. *waves at littlegreythings*
      ...welcome to the club:hug:
      Expressive is a really good word for her. I'm a little nervous about the knee joint mechanics...hope she'll be a sturdy stander. I know you love your Feeple/Luts gang, so do you are you drawn to the realistic head of Narae or are you thinking hybrid?

    4. *....goes to look*...ooh....:aeyepop:
      Personally, I wouldn't have them for ballet, but they are perfect for being dipped into a pond or stream...
      Oh heck, if Bimong offers her in real skin or light tan....:love

    5. Apparently the feet will be a gift for the first preorder. I hope we will still be able to purchase them later!

    6. He better offer her in light tan! I already have the head! It isn't very light though. It is very close to Soom's bronze.

    7. Thanks for the info - sahoma - .
      Wonder if he's planning other hands too? *why don't I ask Bimong?*

      Really Nancy? It's as dark as that? Yummmm...it's a delicious colour:drool

    8. I'm really hoping for tan too! Glad to hear it's not too light :D

    9. Ok, got my wires crossed about colours and had to have another look at pics of Soom Bronze, which is actually only a little darker than Soom Tawny. Right, yeah, WILL be in trouble.

      The new body has so many joints, but I love the way they're rounded and somehow give an overall more fluid look to the physique. She looks athletic, not too slim, but healthy. I had been planning on a Dollshe gal, but New Narae will come first.

    10. Thank you! :hug:

      The way he's done the knee area is really interesting. She looks like she'll be so much fun to pose and play with. :)

      I am planning to hybrid the body with one of my girls, though I do like some of the Narae sculpts (Mature Narae in particular). I'm sure I'll have some trouble with the resin matching, but if I like this body as much as I think I will, I'll find some way to make it work!

    11. It really is a pretty color! I just expected light tan to be a little lighter! Each company has it's own definition of tans.
       
      #171 nancy_schroeder_ca, Oct 1, 2016
    12. Yes, Soom's bronze is a bit darker than tawny.
       
      #172 nancy_schroeder_ca, Oct 1, 2016
    13. I most definitely agree and a Me too!

    14. Oh my god, you guys!! Bimong said he's planning to start taking order "next wednesday to friday" :O I don't know if that means tomorrow or next week, but it's very close!
       
      #174 sahoma, Oct 4, 2016
    15. I would like next week at the earliest. It's just ready to go the factory! Masters ans molds need to be made and tested, etc.
       
      #175 nancy_schroeder_ca, Oct 4, 2016
    16. I'm hoping for white resin.....

    17. Where did he announce this?
       
      #177 passionasfashion, Oct 5, 2016
    18. On his flickr in the comments.
       
      #178 nancy_schroeder_ca, Oct 5, 2016
    19. Thanks Nancy
       
      #179 passionasfashion, Oct 5, 2016
    20. Yup, and he also said this doll would be a pre-order instead of in stock.

      I'm so confused about the feet though! He said they are gift parts and I asked if it would be possible to purchase them later and he said "homepage's menu and sale system will be changed from second pre-order. And gift parts are not for sale"
      Does it mean they won't be for sale separately or that they are only available for the first preorder? I really want those ballet feet, but I don't think I can join the first pre-order :...(
