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

Page 7 of 14
    1. I got a limited Red Queen and the base price was 350 without the outfit, wig, shoes, or face-up. The fullset was around 500.00 which was almost 100.00 higher than the first limited Alice was. Pipos figured out quickly that they can really get their full profit margin by charging for every item that is part of the set vs. including it all in one price like they did with the first Alice. I still can't believe I paid that much for a tiny doll, but I really wanted a Docshul face-up (or the equivalent) and was madly in love with the sculpt in all it's expensive fullset glory.

      As much as I would love a nightmare Alice to add to my collection, I also am considering just getting a blank Mari and customizing her myself vs. shelling out that kind of money again.

    2. Hmm... 350 blank isn't too terrible. We'll see what happens tomorrow. I just love the face sculpt, and normal Mari doesn't come in WS, which is what I'm really after. So if I can get her blank, that would be awesome.

    3. I know, I would also love to have a white skinned Mari myself. I think I will wait for a while and see if they offer her as a basic and take my chances. Pipos is notorious for releasing basic versions of limited dolls after the limited dolls sell out.
       
      #123 Luckyl, Sep 9, 2010
    4. I might take the chance too. Maybe if we pester them they'll offer WS. :P
       
      #124 PixiStyx, Sep 9, 2010
    5. You could definitely split her, I'm sure there are lots of people who'd really love just the outfit.

    6. I'm down with that! I would really love gray skin, but white would work for me too.

      Have we made it almost to the time for the unveiling? I really want to get a better look at the half-closed eye head to see if that one really grabs me.

    7. It's apparently around 1PM in Korea right now so I believe we have 9 more hours to go. I'm hoping they'll put up separate sales pages for each doll before I head off to bed but it seems unlikely :/
       
      #127 Jirachi, Sep 9, 2010
    8. Oh poo. Thanks for the update though. I guess we will just have to wait until tomorrow to get a better look at the nightmare doll lineup.

    9. New picture is up on pipos website of the half eyes version of alice. Oh god...she is really cute!
       
      #129 bonmwe, Sep 9, 2010
    10. Yes, she is cute- the whole presentation is gorgeous. Love the gloomy athmosphere.
      I´m wondering what Alice´s mesurements are? Is she a tall as a Yo?
       
      #130 LadyGinSling, Sep 9, 2010
    11. Considering that Alice is the same as Mari, I would say she's Yo yes. I'm concerned about this bit: "A dark alice doesn't use jointed body(devided chest, stomach and pelvis) like previous PO11." Doesn't have jointed body...??
       
      #131 Lady SleepsAlot, Sep 9, 2010
    12. just looked in the manual, there are no joints in her body...
       
      #132 TeaPartyRevolution, Sep 9, 2010
    13. yeah I saw that too. That is actually kind of a deal breaker for me.. She is utterly gorgeous, I think I like the open eyed version best, but I'm considering just getting a basic Mari instead now. I like my dolls to pose as good as possible
       
      #133 Lady SleepsAlot, Sep 9, 2010
    14. Gah I hope they would sell the new Rabbit as one of the regulars...
       
      #134 CL, Sep 9, 2010
    15. Ohmygosh that rabbit is so frickin' gorgeous. *___* If anyone here gets it, please spam the hell out of 'em!

      I will never get over how awesome Pipos' picture set ups are! I want to make one for my Charlotte! :D

      And dude, I know why Dark Alice does not have joints! She's on the R.Pi body! I took one look at it and yup, that's Charlotte's body. That's why she's taller than the Pi dolls. (The only difference is the hands, Charlotte's human hands are bigger and longer.)

    16. I'm on the website... they are up and all SOLD OUT >.< maybe they forgot to do something or they are just sold out already

      Anyways the Cheschire is 390$ comes with a doll prop... ( a piece of wall?)
      Alice is 440 and you get your choice of open and semi-closed eyes for the head.
      Dark Rabbit is the same price as the dark Cheschire
       
      #136 acexkeikai, Sep 9, 2010
    17. :( i wanna get the dark cheshire..but i'd only be able to in layaway...and i can see him going quickly.. :sigh I totally wish i could have dark cheshire but with the bunnys outfit..it's adorable XD
       
      #137 KittyOrochimaru, Sep 9, 2010
    18. I know I want the dark Cheschire too... I am miffed all I can see if sold out on all 3 dolls... I guess they released them but aren't for sale yet? I'm confused.
       
      #138 acexkeikai, Sep 9, 2010
    19. I'm practically shaking. This release is much more limited than I thought and it says in Alice's description you also get a chance to win a free Po7 sized dark Alice, now I really have to try *A*

      edit: sadly the anthros are the only ones face-uped bu Docshul. I was really hoping she'd be the one touching that Alice T___T;
       
      #139 Jirachi, Sep 9, 2010
    20. darn I guess they aren't for sale just yet... well I can't stay and continue to check I have to get dressed and go to work:...(
