I ordered Elf Bambi Reviving ver during the last sale too. Many ppl in China said that Rosenlied is just moving their location, but I don't believe :/ From the announcement, I feel like we are losing Rosenlied...
So I'm locked out of my account because the password recovery doesn't work. I figured I shoot them an email to get an idea of the wait time, since I can't check my order myself and I gotta say their customer service is super nice! Told me they're slow because they got a lot of ordered and they're Wirkung hard to make a pretty product. Seems mine is supposed to ship out middle of next week. Edit: She's on her way now! First thing in forever that comes to me via EMS. Curious how well that goes.
I had no idea Rosenlied closed down until earlier this year. Found out just after I had purchased a fullset Mignon secondhand off the MP here. So I'm glad I was able to get one of their big babies but it saddens me that they are no more. My Mignon is from a Code Noir fullset and her name is Eve. She's best friends with my Luts Baby Delf, Wynnie.
This makes me truly sad. I've always been a sucker for their aesthetic. I'm playing catch up after being away from the hobby... Their style and clothes mean so much to me.
Thankfully, you can still find many secondhand on Mandarake Japan, Yahoo!Japan and Mercari Japan. and Kanadoll and Rollingpumpkin are still collaborating and releasing new dolls under Petit Soiree.
Hey there, wow I wasn't aware Rosenlied closed down either I was away from the hobby for a solid decade, and am now grateful I still kept my Rosenlied Flora who's currently getting a reshell. I love their aesthetic, it's really sad they aren't active anymore. I actually peaked in here with a question - does anyone have a comparison of a Rosenlied Wednesday's Child with a 60cm or 65cm male SD doll? I'm trying to decide on body size for my Flora's parent, and worry 65cm may be to big! She's meant to be 10-11 and I have a hard time gouging the proportions
I have a Wednesday's Child and some 65cm guys that I can snap a pic of together later tonight or this weekend. Til then, I do have a photo of my Baby Delf next to a 65cm for comparison. My Baby Delf and Wednesday's Child share clothes, they just can't share shoes. I'll spoiler the pic since it doesn't have a Rosenlied in it. Personally, I think big babies make perfect "kids" to 58-75cm SD. Spoiler Left is a Luts Baby Delf Pansy (41cm), right is a Luts SD65 Howl.
Is Rosenlied really closed or shutdown? The last news notice is from 2021, 2 years is a long time to keep a site up, given the expense for hosting fees. The Q&A has messages from customers but no replies in 2022
Last I heard Rosenlied is technically still around but only doing collabs. Here is one from April of this year that indicates the Bluefairy collab with Rosenlied will continue. Also shows to contact Bluefairy for questions. Not sure if they're only doing big baby releases but it's at least something.
:O How beautiful! I am relieved to see that their artistry is still active in the hobby with these collaborations. Thanks for finding and sharing Cap'n!
I adopted a Momo, who already had an artist faceup so I just had to make her theme after those cheek hearts. Her name is Aiko and she is very opposite of my Mignon, Eve.
I'd love to see some more Rosen Lied photos! Here is Marie, my Holiday's Child Bambi image by Rebecca Robson, on Flickr
I have a Daisy on the way! I'm very excited to have one of the Wednesday's Child girls. At some point I'd love to own a doll from each of the Rosen Lied lines, though it looks like the Thursday's Child dolls are hard to come by.
I have a Monday's and a Tuesday's Child, but having a doll from each line would be the dream! I'm much more into smaller dolls, but I think I'd make an exception for a Thursday's Child. I saw a Rosee up secondhand recently and she was absolutely gorgeous.
