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.

Rosette 47cm discussion Part 6

    1. IMHO Rosettes really need a website overhaul! I love my girls but hate explaining how to navigate their poorly designed website.
      I don't mind seeing the Rosette style evolve and change to reflect a more popular aesthetic and I'm very intrigued to see what the future holds for the line.
      I am sad that they don't have their own special boxes any more though...

    3. Wow! She looks like she is from a dream! I love her, But I can't have her :(

    4. Oh my! She is really pretty. I've always been interested in Rosettes and she may have to be my first one.

    5. She's really pretty! I think I'd rather have a plain, school girl Phlox though. The horns are really pretty though!

    6. Wow shes so pretty!
      I'd love a tan phlox one day. Sad I missed the order period. Did anyone order one?

    7. Thank you! If it's just the face up, then I won't worry about it.

      I'm sad to see the Victorian boarding school aesthetic is being phased out. It's what initially attracted me to the line. Oh well, the gorgeous figures and faces are still gorgeous, I guess I'll just have to make my own clothes in the style.

    8. Eh, I think it's honestly hard to tell if it was the Victorian theme that was slowing down sales, versus the huge time between releases, or the impossible-to-navigate website, or the refusal to be flexible regarding what bodies/skin tones/face-ups they did offer. It's a shame to see them moving away from their original theme, but at least if they fix all the other problems the Rosette line might become more popular. And maybe they'll revisit Victorian-themed releases later on.

    9. Could be the fact that they neglect the line. The body style's pretty popular and they're cheaper than most of the GEM stuff I've seen. It comes across as they've run out of ideas. :/
       
      #229 ThisOneIsMein, Nov 15, 2014
    10. Hey- did I miss something or what? EVERYTHING is listed as "Sold Out" on the Rosette site!
       
      #230 Chehime, Nov 19, 2014
    11. Maybe the doll gods have answered our prayers and the site is finally getting a much needed overhaul!
      I mean it's absolutely ridiculous to be suddenly paying attention to the line with all these new releases and still have a non functioning site from which to order. Maybe they're just all sold out temporarily while the site is being redone?

    12. I hope that's all it is! Fingers crossed!
       
      #232 Chehime, Nov 19, 2014
    13. So apparently I keep spamming this thread... BUT Rosette has been posting a bunch of teasers on Twitter but there is NO change to the website and it's driving me nuts! Anyone have any theories??
       
      #233 Chehime, Nov 25, 2014
    14. they will open orders from 27th november to 14th of december

    15. The Phlox limited edition is up! And they've allowed all three skintone options (white, normal and tan) again, and body/bust choices! I'm really excited about this, because it hopefully means this is the new 'standard', which is something a lot of us have wanted for a long time!

      On the other hand, I'm devastated that the bishop chess piece is part of her release! The odds of me finding someone to split it from are really terrible, considering how few people tend to buy Rosette girls :pout:I snagged both the pawn and knight pieces and was hoping to get a complete set, but now things aren't looking so good...

      On the positive side, I love her LE face-up. I wasn't a huge fan of Phlox's head sculpt originally because I thought the lips were a bit... odd somehow? But seeing her LE face-up has really changed my opinion of her (which is good, since I ended up caving and getting her head in white skin from the basic release after all :sweat)
       
      #235 sharnofshade, Nov 27, 2014
    16. She's lovely! I wish I had a character for her, I really, really do... :sigh
       
      #236 Girrl, Nov 27, 2014
    17. Wow! The hooves are shoes!!! I thought they were just weird feet LOL! I like Phlox, but I'd really rather just have a plain standard of her I think. Though the full set is lovely, it's just too much. I with the antlers looked more like deer antlers, then I could make her a mori style girl. Not that I can get her anyway...
       
      #237 Chehime, Nov 27, 2014
    18. I love the way they translated the hooves into wearable shoe parts, but if the feet are those shapeless slabs again.........
       
      #238 Momiji, Nov 28, 2014
    19. Oh no i really want a tan phlox :doh
      Slab feet... Does that mean if you got the doll without all the extra fantasy parts she wouldn't have real feet?! dumb question haha

      new question: Is there one regular tan colour used with rosettes? when I searched flickr I saw a few variations I think... Do we know what kind of tan this release could be?
       
      #239 Allstar, Nov 28, 2014
    20. Wow she looks incredible! Creative solution they have with the feet. Too bad the web site is still a bit of a mess :/

      I haven't been in it for a while, what's the deal with the chess pieces?
