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.

    5. Nope, not like a bjd and much less like a barbie, I've never seen a barbie with a face like that. Why is it that those human doll girls always go for the extra thin nose bridge? Barbie does not have a nose like that, her lips do remind me of a vintage barbie though.

      The only thing that looks like a bjd to me is something with ball joints, so unless someone is wearing those ball joint tattoo stockings, I don't think any amount of makeup or circle lenses makes someone look like a ball jointed doll, especially with the variety of sculpts out there.

      Though she looks remarkably like Deedlit from Record of Lodoss War, seriously, its uncanny.

    6. I could not disagree more Milk Bunny. The ball joints on the dolls are simply to promote mobility - when I think of what they 'look' like it is their FACEUPS & facial sculpts I focus on. And this girl certainly looks more like a BJD than a Barbie (seeing as she's REAL as in breathing; & Barbies just never look real) Oh and there are BJD sculpts that look remarkably like various people (and I'm not talking about MiniMees either). I can think of 3 BJD sculpts offhand that look like Korean actresses (have no idea if the companies meant them to or not) & IH Dexter looks soooo much like Viggo Mortenson in LOTR. Then of course there are the cosplayers who like to dress up as certain dolls (Ducan seems really popular) - & some even put in the joints although really I think that's unnecessary.

    7. Oh this thing, I thought this was over with. She looks dumbs... and both of them are stupid for doing that. Sorry but just no.

    8. I watched a documentary on her and Ken, and several shows about this. Awkward...but I guess they can do whatever.

    10. From the before and after all it looks like the girl had done to her face was a nosejob and heavy makeup. She doesn't look much different than the before. I think she looks like a BJD, she looks cute aside from the weird eye makeup. The guy looks creepy and weird though and more than a little womanly.

    12. Discussion threads on Den of Angels should be focused on the dolls themselves or some aspect of the hobby. These individuals are focused on making themselves look like Barbie and Ken, both of which are off-topic for Den of Angels.

      Thank you for understanding.
