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.

New Iplehouse Dolls - SID - Lets Speculate and Chatter

Jan 20, 2010

Page 14 of 27
    1. I can't wait to see who the guy is going to be. I asked them about an asian male EID last year, and suggested a Daniel Henney-esque face. :aheartbea I will be getting Asa in normal skin. Hopefully, they release her in SID since I'd prefer that size.

    2. Oooh! I am excited about what other Asian sculpts they'll be coming out with. I too would prefer Asa in SID size.

    3. Am I the only one who thinks Yur's head looks a little big on the SID body?

      but Luna... I don't think I've actually seen her look attractive before. I always thought her head looked a little small for the EID body which made her look a little odd (especially in combination with those curves), this one seems to suit her so much better. It could also be the new face-up.

    4. Yes, I much prefer Yur's head on the EID body.

    5. I think Yur does look a tiny bit big on the SID body, but I think it has to do with her facial proportions (longer face, wider features). Whereas Luna has a shorter/smaller face.

    6. Ooooooooh, I am hoping beyond hope that if they release their Asian guy he is an SID, or at least his noggin can fit on the SID boy body. Although, I'd like to have an option of getting him in NS, so I REALLY hope he will be an SID. And look very Korean, like Asa does. Perferrably like Jang Geun Suk. Or Chun Jung Myung.

      I should suggest** these ideas to Iplehouse :P






      **demand:lol:

    7. You should suggest them!! XD You never know!! I'd love to see some SID Asian sculpts.
       
      #267 masala_chai_tea, May 5, 2010
    8. I'm dying for some SID guys with nice serious nose bridge and jawline like Luo and Kamau and some of the YID faces. Iple's manly men win my heart.
       
      #268 Rosslyn, May 5, 2010
    9. Rosslyn: I'm all for manly men as well! A strong jawline is something one cannot pass up! XD
       
      #269 masala_chai_tea, May 5, 2010
    10. While I do find Yur's head to be a bit large on the SID body, I actually find it asthetically interesting, and I'm really excited to get her home. =^i^=
       
      #270 takysa, May 5, 2010
    11. ;) I'm sure she'll look even more amazing in your personal pictures! It's really hard to tell sometimes how something looks in promos, but the SID girls all look great. I wasn't a fan of Luna before, but seeing her as an SID makes me like her more.
       
      #271 masala_chai_tea, May 5, 2010
    12. I totally would if they didn't get a ton of questions and suggestions everyday. I felt bad just for forgetting to include my order number in a layaway payment I made to them and I had to start a QandA thread for it to make sure they got it. I'm sure however, whenever they release him, the Asian guy will be amazing, anyways.

      And not just him, I want to see the next SID, boy or girl!! A younger looking Luo maybe!! Gah, I can't wait to see how Cherie looks in person.
       
      #272 WeirdReality, May 6, 2010
    13. Yeah, I feel bad when I bombard Dollmore with questions on their board. XD They get a lot of traffic like Iplehouse! Although, most companies are so great about getting back to you when you have suggestions and questions.

      Me toooooo!! I am really excited about upcoming SID sculpts. XD I really only have plans for one other large boy and then I'm cutting myself off. hahaha SID size is more my speed.

    14. New pics of the elbow and knee joints on the SID girl up on the Iple gallery.
       
      #274 Patrice S, May 11, 2010
    15. I'm totally in :aheartbea :aheartbea with Cherie/Bunny Girl -- but those SID elbows seem odd to me -- I haven't seen an elbow joint like that before. It looks very complex, and I don't know who to describe it, but not quite right. What do you guys think?

      Here is a link to the photos in the Iplehouse gallery http://iplehouse.net/board/view.php?board_name=DREAMBOARD10&choose2=&choose1=&pagenow=1&CB=&ID=70

      She's dreamy but that elbow looks dislocated or something.

      Also -- is the mobility joint a good thing? Worth the upcharge?
       
      #275 RobbinA, May 11, 2010
    16. I think that it looks like that to get the extra poseability but with just a normal elbow bend you wouldn't really see it.

      Personally I don't care that much for the mobility joint.

       
      #276 Patrice S, May 11, 2010
    17. That must be the new type elbow that shows that "tab" extending into the upper arm at rest. I'd like to see it from behind to see if there's a big gap when it's bent. At least the knee joint connector itself seems to be smoother than the EID one. I've seen too many complaints about the EID girl knee piece getting stuck in the thigh.

      I don't understand, though, why they go for such realism on the knee cap, making it so prominent, if it's going to be SITTING like a lump on the top of the thigh when the leg is bent. That looks so odd and, IMO, ruins the smooth thigh line. Also noticed that there doesn't seem to be any mobility in the ankle joint. They switched between flat feet and heel feet all through the pictures.
       
      #277 hobbywhelmed, May 11, 2010
    18. Yes!! It does look wrong -- I kept looking at those pictures and thinking "that's a beautifully sculpted leg -- why is there something bugging me about it?" and that's it -- that very noticeable knee cap on top of the bent leg is tough to ignore. I guess that some realism needs to be compromised to make the sculpt more versatile. Yep, that knee cap thing is perplexing.
       
      #278 RobbinA, May 11, 2010
    19. Her face is adorable, and I think standing and from a distance the body still looks lovely, but seeing those joint pictures has definitely changed my mind about using it for a hybrid. I don't like them at all. There's no smoothness to the joints, and that kneecap on the thigh is very unattractive.
       
      #279 Kim, May 11, 2010
    20. I guess I'm in the minority who likes the joints, especially the elbows. I think the biggest distractions in the EID joints are when their strings show in poses and I think Iplehouse worked on the SID to cover up some of that. I think its really nice. A WHOLE lot nicer than any other body I've had before. And I love seeing me some new pictures of my baby!!
