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!! NARIN DOLLS 60 cm & 43 cm PRE-ORDERING INFO pg. 12

    1. YAY!!!! :D I can't wait to order my 43cm openeyed narae! Will the face plates be available separately?

    2. YAY! It's going to be tomorrow... I'm just finishing up the web site now. There is going to be one big web form where you can specify all your choices to make the doll of your dreams....

      I hope to get a lot of faceplates if possible and offer them all the time (hey, what a concept! Something available here, with no lottery!). I'm not yet sure if I can get them, but I will turn on the charm.

      I hope everyone understands why I am taking orders before the head pics come in-- this way we will be at the head of the line to get our dolls rather than way back... there are so many people e-mailing me who are anxious about holiday and birthday timing, this is the only solution I could come up with. If you aren't in a hurry to get your Narin or Narae, by all means, there will be another ordering soon enough and you can do everything at once. The only thing I can't promise is that the 43 cm edition won't be sold out (it only goes to 1,000).

    3. Did you ever find out if the cyborgs have the same face plates as the new 43 dolls?

      I am wondering if the boy and girl just have the same faces except with more closed eyes. But the cyborg boy seems to have a closed mouth?

    4. OK.... big question. I went to www.narindoll.com and in the slide show they have going on the left of the screen is a beautiful bride looking girll. I LOVE the look of this doll. Is it the 43 cm. size or the 60 cm. The mouth looks open more than the ones I've seen of the other 60cm. Hmmmmmmm. Let me know if you know! Love these dolls!!!! So we can pre-order tomorrow?

      TIA!

    5. do you know what his count is? how many of the thousand has he produced? i would be sad if i couldn't get my fachtna in january or february! ;________; I might be able to order him in december if i have enough after paying med bills and rent since my lusis is going on a credit card along with the other three unoas for customizing me and my friend are ordering.

    6. Yes, I think she is a 43 cm Narae. They have a slight mouth parting with teeth.
      It's funny cause they don't have any 43 cm dolls on their site yet for sale. As I've been learning, they added three new face options for both 43 and 60 cm dolls.

      Yes, preordering starts tomorrow. I've been working on a web-based preorder form and I finally finished it. Very custom! Everyone will have to bear with me til I get those head options shots, but well-worth it to see all of us at the head of the ordering line.
      Thanks!

    7. It is my belief that these faces will be options for the 43 cm dolls. I can't promise it, because I haven't seen them yet, but I am VERY VERY SUSPICIOUS that these will be 2 of the faces coming:

    8. Since we have talked and you are on my list, I'm going to keep you posted if I hear that supplies are getting scarce. Lusis and Fachtna would be a dream couple...

    9. thanks and yes, keep me informed if supplies are dwindling! Lusis and Narriiinn.. i love that cyborge face- that's 1/2 closed i think? I can't wait for the images, then i can decide exactly which faceplate i would want. and here's to hoping you can get some extra plates so i can put the cuddling plan into action!

    10. I would love to get the head parts/ face plates/ whatever they are! they do look gorgeous.

      I was on the Narin site a bit, surfing around...found they have loaded their Gallery info. This is a gorgeous store/ gallery located in Seoul. It showcases Korean ball jointed doll artists' work. Looks very glitzy.. can't wait to see it some day.

    11. So tomorrow we can order? {damn this cold ,it makes my thinking a little wonky so I'm sorry if this has been asked before} When it comes to the face up can I just ask for shades of pink... lips , blush ...

      I'll have to start buying clothes,wigs shoes and eyes. :D I think thats the best part of collecting these dolls. You get to create the personality.
       
      #191 clayfaery, Nov 5, 2005
    12. Yeah, I'd guess that the cyborgs have some of the newer "closed eyes" face plates, but I can't wait to see all the options. Making a decision isn't getting any easier :lol:
       
      #192 StrontiumDog, Nov 5, 2005
    13. Yes, I will contact everyone tomorrow when the site is all done. SO much last minute stuff. And due to all the new ordering options, I had to create one heckuva web-based form. It will be very much like ordering a custom made doll for yourself.

      I think shades of pink would look good.. do you want a matte finish on everything or shiny lips?
      I know they did a lot of faces that were very matte. Quite lovely-- but some like lip gloss.

    14. I know-- on one hand, it's been so hard waiting... on the other.. you see why it took so long. I'm very excited to see the new faces. :D And it's nice to know there is always good old Mr Default to fall back on if none of the optional faces strikes a chord.

    15. Is there any remote chance of doing layaway?

      And when will the current pre-order end?^^
       
      #195 glass_mountain, Nov 6, 2005
    16. The reason I am doing this rather hurried order is because of the holidays coming up, and the wait until later this week for optional head pictures. If I waited until later this week to start, there would be less of a chance the Narin people could get our dolls here in time for the holidays. Many people have already decided to get a 60 cm or 43 cm with the open eyes, so I felt it would be ok to go ahead... with the idea that they could switch to another head style when the pictures arrive.

      The quickie holiday order will end Nov 14th. Shipping will be tight but I think we can manage it.

      If you aren't in a hurry as much, i will take another pre-order later this month.

    17. Matte.. after seeing some of the samples I've really fallen in love with the look. Besides I can always gloss the lips myself.
       
      #197 clayfaery, Nov 6, 2005
    18. I think they may be worried that the 43 cm ones will sell out before she has the money to pay for them, hopefully I can buy my Narae 43cm in full but we'll have to see! ^_^
       
      #198 Rinoa, Nov 6, 2005
    19. You know..... I also love the pic of the 60cm Narae in "Wedding Dress 1" which I think is one of their special dolls, right? I really love that face-up and that is what I'd like her to look like, but because it is a special OOAK doll, would they mind doing the face-up the same? Most companies won't do that. LMK what you think. I really love that she looks very Asian there. I think it is the same one that you have in your Avatar. Mmmmmmm!

      Judy :D

    20. I will beg forgiveness now for lifting this pic...... but it is sooooooo beautiful and it was hard to find on the Narin site..... I can't even figure out where it was on there now! So...... which doll is this? Is it the 43cm Narae? Or maybe the 60cm one? WOW! Now I am really confused about face-ups! Love this one and the bride #1

      Again.... sorry if you need for it to be deleted I understand.... It is just sooooooo beautiful!
