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.

Raccoon Doll Discussion - Part 6

Jan 15, 2021

    1. Thank you for your reply! For some reason when I got the FID hands in lt. brown I thought they were very similar, but now that I've had another look after your comment, I can see you're right. Although for some reason the colour difference is way more obvious in indoors lightning.

      Which body is it for your hybrid? It looks fantastic. I find my JID looks good but a bit too chunky for RD heads.

    2. @Seed-Singer You are welcome. If you are referring to the Body that the RD Nana head is on, it's an iplehouse FID Muscular Body. It's my favorite in that size, but unfortunately they do not sell just bodies.

      I will take the chance to show off my Laetitia and smiling Gene, as they're pretty much completed!

    4. Chanda got a new sweater and purse recently. Made for Tonner's newer Grace doll, but a loose enough style to fit her. Anything fitted would probably be too small.

    5. When are people expecting the new round of dolls on the new girl body? I have a layaway for Yumi, no faceup, but I’m close to paying it off…
       
    6. No idea, I don't know what the waiting times are like anymore, but I ordered Rosie with the new Naturally Posed Body at the end of the discount event on layaway too. I ordered her with a bunch of extras and face-up though, so I'm assuming that she isn't nearly ready yet :lol:
       
    7. I ordered the first day of the pre-order period and my status switched to “queued for shipping” this morning! Ordered Celine on the new body (w/ faceup) in sweet mocha.

    8. I just got my tracking number for my sweet mocha Laetitia! I ordered her on March 1st. I ordered her blank, but hopefully those who ordered face ups will ship out soon too! This will be my first raccoon doll and I’m so excited!

    9. Oh wow! I made an executive decision and paid off my layaway last night! Good timing I’d say!

    11. So I got an official email today confirming my full payment (I did layaway) and my status on the website changed to pending. Yumi‘s boyfriend Rugged Realism Aquilo is very excited. My story is she’s a pre-med student studying in the US and about to return to Seoul after graduation. They met online. If it takes a lot longer to ship, I may say she is visiting a friend in Europe on her way home.

    12. My Celine (Sweet Mocha, w/ faceup) arrived today! (Ordered first day of the pre-order period). Her sculpt feels a bit different to me in person than it did in her photos on the website (something about her eye and nose shape - I feel like her nose looks wider in the company photos and her eyes felt a smidge wider too) but she's still really gorgeous. She was intended for a character reshell but now that she's here I think she gets a brand new character. New eyes and wig are on the way!

      For anyone else that ordered her with a faceup, her lips are much brighter/pinker. than I expected (can't tell here as much as I've edited the photo). New naturally posed slim body is fantastic, btw. Fav slim msd body in my collection, I think.

      Her name is Kalani :)

    17. Ooooooguys I just saw this post on Instagram

      33cm girl coming soon.....


      Her face seems pretty round, very young looking. I'd built myself a scale conversation worksheet and dropped in average heights of children, 33cm falls in that ages 7 to 10 range. Maybe there will be other head options....I am looking forward to seeing more thou!

    18. Ooh that's exciting!!! Crossing fingers they actually work as in scale dolls!!!
       
    19. Juliet (33cm doll) is up on their website. The last 2 photos show her standing next to an adult raccoon woman doll. They look pretty good together. I was hoping she would be available in mint, but that is one of the few colors that is not being offered. I hope more heads are offered in the future.
       
    20. Ah, I'm a bit disappointed by the 33cm doll, her head still looks too big and childish next to the adult doll to me - that said, it's probably still better than most other YoSD options, and hopefully they will release more head sculpts that I like better?! If she had a less round face and smaller eyes maybe... well, hopefully there will be more choices in the future, although if no one much buys the first one, they may not I guess. :(
