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.

Pipos: Alice in Nightmare Discussion

Aug 12, 2010

    1. I wanted the basic grey Cheshire for a while, thinking about perhaps customizing him to be more scary/evil for a character I had in mind for a long time. The basic Cheshire is cute, but not that scary (He is supposed to be the bringer of nightmares after all. Keep in mind that this was before I even heard about the Alice in Nightmare dolls).

      Mom and Dad said I could have a doll for my birthday (It's in October. A little less then a month and then I'm seventeen!), since my sister got a new doll for herself a few weeks ago.

      Just as I was about to show my dad the grey Cheshire that I (originally) wanted, I saw the Alice in Nightmare's Cheshire Cat and I was completely smitten. He looked so close to what I had in mind for my own 'bringer of nightmares', that I just gaped at him and told my dad that I wanted him instead. :sweat

      Hopefully we'll be able to put him on layaway via DDE before the preorders are full. I know that it might be after my birthday when I *hopefully* recieve my Cat, heck...he'll probably be arriving around Christmas time.

      However...I think he'll definately be worth the wait.

      Congradulations Pipos, you have a new fan. :)
       

    2. Would Lati size fit then? And finding male style clothing might be a stretch in the Blythe size... well I'll adapt ^^
       
    3. Most Blythe clothes will be a bit small on PI dolls but, the cheshire and rabbit may be able to squeeze into something with an elastic waist or baggy dress, but doubtful. The anthro and PO-1 body is much wider than barbie size and so are the arms, the legs are much shorter and wider too, so things will be very long on them too. I know luxour academy sells some anthro clothes for Pipos dolls and some Yo-sd clothes fit them. Some of the 8" Kish clothes on ebay have fit too.
       
    4. Lati yellow dresses would fit jr.PI but would be too small for PI.
       
    5. 7 Cheshires and 4 Rabbits left!

      Totally want a Rabbit but only had enough for the Cheshire.... though if I win a baby alice i'll probably sell or trade for a Rabbit...
       
    6. I would have loved a Baby Alice, but apparently DDE can't participate in the Pipos Event.... :(
       
    7. I hope they show pics and give more info about the baby Alice soon :)
       
    8. 2 HO Alices & 1 OE Alice left. Others must have changed their minds....
       
    9. That is a shame, but I figured that the odds of my winning one are so low that its not a worry for me. I'm just glad that the resin gift pieces will come with the dolls.
       
    10. Everyone's enthusiasm makes me want to break down and get @ least one -- if not both the Cheshire & Dali :D
       
    11. I know, the excitement is infectious. Only once have I ever purchased a full-set for myself before, but I went all out this time! I'm pretty excited about the dreamy Alice, I'm hopeful that she's amazing in person. :aheartbea

      EDIT: How long is the wait for a full-set? I'm already chomping at the bit!
       
    12. They will start sending them mid October
       
    13. Yay for those who already paid them you'll have them by Halloween :D
      I'M supposed to finish paying mine off in November so I hope he will ship before Christmas
       
    14. Oh wow. Mid-October... I'm supposed to wait till XMas to open mine. Maybe I'll have to strike a deal with my parents. XD
       
    15. Mine are on layaway too. I think someone said that DDE lets you know when they arrive and gives you the option of paying off the balance? That's pretty nice!

      PixiStyx, there's no way you'll be able to wait that long to open her up!
       
    16. Yes DDE does do that. I get most all my dolls from DDE due to their wonderful service and layaway options :) I love ordering directly through Pipos too but atleast i don't have to pay the EMS ship with DDE so it saves me a bit of money. I order through Pipos only when DDE doesn't carry something. This time i'm going through Pipos because of the PO7 drawing/prize :) Still hoping they show pics soon.
       
    17. Thanks animedolls! I agree that working with DDE is quite pleasant, they are always friendly and willing to answer questions promptly.

      When will the Dark Alice P07 pictures go up I wonder? The dreamy Alice isn't sold out yet, I suspect they are waiting to do the drawing until all of the Alices sell out. I'm not too hopeful. I've never had good luck at raffles. Ever. Don't get me wrong, I have other sorts of luck... but I don't think I've ever won a raffle. :P
       
    18. They haven't said anything about the Po Alice yet right?
       
    19. She's up on the site now. :)
       
    20. mmm wait I am on Layway and I made my first payment already... well shouldn't have everyone made their first payment by now? I don't understand the October 9th deadline... does it mean for people who haven't ordered yet?

      but she's so CUTE! Good luck to everyone... I really would like to get her... let's see if any of us has any luck
