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.

Oink oink to all Piggy lovers

    1. Quick, someone buy that ophelia! I love her and cant resist much longer....
       
    2. Where are they getting them from? Presumably these are dolls Charles Stephan keeps finding under his bed? I think I'll have to pass -- I've bought a lot of unexpected dolls this month (a lot) and one dolly I knew I wanted but thought I could put off will have to be ordered this month because the doll artist is changing his ordering system.

      That Ophelia does look nice though....

      Dedjnn! I very much doubt you can get Tinsley to pick up that wee mop. ACBs don't believe in work. They expect other people to be their willing slaves while they sit around being fabulous. And I have to say that Tinsley does a great job of being fabulous. Look at her aristocratic pose! The way she's decorated her rooms in a totally fabulous way! Her exquisite collection of rare china. I'm surprised she didn't order you to take that nasty mop away. (Did she even admit to knowing what a mop is?) I love her to bits. I asked Arthur (my own beloved ACB) and he said ACBs have a very high metabolism and need to eat a LOT of snacks.

      Fiatan! How is Bubu Odoroki doing thinking of a name? It brings a smile just thinking about him.
       
    3. Fellow piggy lovers I have a question! Does ophelia licorice have the same face as bubu ? I love bubus face but ophelia has cuter ears and I like the black resin... I cant tell because she photographs so dark but does she have a cute smile and chubby cheeks too?
       
    4. Hi ArouraAnn! I have both, and Ophelia does not have the same face, her mouth is more sad looking. But she does have the same chubby cheeks!

      You can see her face more in this picture:

    5. Thank you Fiatan! I um.... already ordered her.... kind of a jump first then look situation! im sure once I get over the shock she will be here, hopefully i can bond with a pouty little piggy XD
       
    6. Hi ArouraAnn, Congrats on jumping in and ordering Ophelia! I'm a bit tempted by her too, but just purchased an expensive piece of doll furniture that I'd had on my wishlist for a couple of years. And I still have to find the right eyes for both my Bubu and Princess Kaba. Not to mention, Kaba still needs a face-up herself. Anyway, enjoy your Ophelia, and I hope you share pictures when you get her. :love

      Hi Psammead , I cracked up when I read your comment about Charles finding dolls under his bed! LOL! :lol: I'm happy for both the doll collectors who are able to get these creatures, which admittedly are amazing, but I'm also happy for the nice folks at Denver Doll too. It's good that Charles seems to be making an effort to fulfill these old orders. Although, I don't think I would never buy from him directly again, I absolutely purchase from Denver Doll, if I had the funds. ;)

      Juli DC :)
       
    7. Thanks julidc! Im so happy to be jumping on the piggy bandwagon, I was heartbroken last time dde got some ophelias and sold out. Im not usually a big photo taker but I will do my best to provide plenty of tofutos!
      Oh, could someone tell me what size eyes she takes please?
       
    8. Yay more Ophelias!

      These little darlings take 14mm if you want a perfect fit in the eyeholes, but I use 16mm because I like the look of the bigger pupils. So I can say that she uses both, but 14mm is probably the right size.

      My Bubu is still nameless, but I have a few I'm trying out for now. One of them is "Hermes." :)
       
    9. Hermes is a great name, but I'm worried it might confuse Hilde even more. If he picks a name the same as a Parisian fashion house she'll expect him to provide silk scarves and handbags.
       
    10. Ha ha ha! He would probably break her heart by claiming that fashion is so "unreasonable." Yes, I'm hesitant to have two "H" named dolls . . .
       
    11. Thanks for the heads up :) I did an impule buy and picked up another BuBu & an Ophelia. They are on layaway so it may be awhile till i see them. Already planning on finding someone to commission face ups for them :) Once i save up more money that is.
       
    12. Omg, I thought I would never have the chance at an Ophelia so I just kinda...clicked...buy.

      4 month layaway if denver doll let me, because im getting way too many dolls as it is at the moment.

      But.I.could.Not.Resist.
       
    13. Lol tagi I know exactly what you mean... Im kicking myself for not getting a bubu with my ophelia now that hes sold out... I hope charles will send them more piggies someday :(
       
    14. Man, I love Ophelia....her ears are so awesome! One day I will have to find a nice companion for Tinsley...
       
    15. Well, long-time piggie lover here, I saw everybody going to DDE for new CCC piggies - naturally I had to follow the crowd... But I got detoured and accidentally purchased DF Kiki :) I just love this little pig and hope that she'll be welcome here when she arrives. They are in stock too, all three types of faceup, which is good: I couldn't possibly handle another pre-order wait, I'm already tied up in two DDE pre-orders!
       
    16. My ophelia came in today from dde and as soon as I took her out of the package her right foot just fell off! I noticed that theres a little metal rod in her left foot that connects to her s hook and holds the string, but this rod fell out on the right foot and I have no idea how to fix it. I emailed dde but i wanted to inquire here and ask if anyone else has had this problem or knows how to fix it? Thanks everyone!
       
    17. Fiatan she is still strung but without that little rod there is no way to reattach her foot :( the best way to fix it I think would be to drill horizontally through the foot and make a new rod but thats alot more modding than im used to. Dde offered to return her but Im already in love!
       
    18. So sorry to hear that. I also have an Ophelia on layaway through DDE. I hope she will not have the same problem. Ofcorse it will be a few months before i get her unless i can pay the layaway off, which i can't baceuse i actualy have 3 different layaways going with DDE at the moment. I need to stop ordering more dolls :)
       
    19. I'm the same animedolls. My Ophelia is on layaway because I have other dolls on layaway also.
      so will be a while before I get my piggie too.
