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.

    1. "Hello dear Kwan,
      Thank you for visiting us^^

      The Christmas special limited dolls will be as below:
      *Limited petite Samuel,
      *Limited petite Dobiel,
      *Limited Little Jr. Muse (new release),
      *And also long waited renewal basic AI : Choa and Sia.

      Since Raphael was introduced a while ago, we think it's not the best time to re-release Raphael again in Christmas....^^
      And we will be introducing our lovely Little Jr. Girl Muse, head sculpted by Uyuchagongbang with new version up body.

      We are trying hard to put the sample pics of them as soon as the pictures ready, so please wait and see if they are the one you are looking for*^^*

      If there are any questions, feel free to write to us anytime~"

      Edit: Boys are being released around Spring. <3

      So I guess Choa and Sia are coming back. :D~ I'm so excited because Sia is my dream doll, the first one I ever fell in love with. :) If I knew about this, I would have waited to order my Tender Bee-a and saved up more to get Sia. ^^;

    4. No Raphael?!

      They haven't released a Raphael in over a year, not sure what they mean "not the best time" to re-release.

      A new Junior will be neat, though, and it's good to see some of the non-limiteds coming back for those who can't afford the $1200 on most of the unique versions (like myself).

      I was really hoping for a holiday Raphael though... :(

    10. There were two limited versions of Raphael released in October...I think that's what they are talking about. I understand the angst, though. Raphael is wonderful. Would love to see more versions, myself.

      my baby is all grown up!!! :cry:

      anyway... I'm relieved. I think the new body is VERY very very beautiful, but personally I'm not tempted to "upgrade" jenna and sabrina in any way. I love their delicate size, my little CH pixie ballerina girls, and I think their breast size is perfect as it is. This new size is VERY nice too, looks very realistic, reminds me of volks sd13 a bit. Really pretty.

      The resin looks really beautiful, and it looks like the changed the elbows... they did a beautiful job. Much love for Customhouse dolls in this house!! :-D

    18. Ooh, I do like the new bodies, which gives me hope of them re-doing the guy's bodies soon (before next year maybe?) *holdling out for a Chamomile ;D*

    19. oh WHEW. Me too... I mean, they look beautiful, but they're not quite what I want to do to Mali. The hands are gorgeous though :( I wish I could get a prettier pair of hands for Mali, but that's it.
