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. Oh my lol! That combo is really startling XD.

      Maybe the dollzone 58 girl body? Or I think I heard that the ringdoll white resin is a good match with volks white, so maybe one of those? The bust on the 68cm girl is a little... Odd, though. I think anyway. Other than that, I'm not sure. I kinda got the impression that aimerai had volks-ish colors? There's April Story but they seem hit and miss on finishing quality.

      I'm in the process of repainting my narcissus head at the moment. Or actually I'm still trying to clean it. The detailed mouth is a real pain to get pristine ;___;
       
    2. @Follow-the-Wind Inside me I knew the head was too big, but I still hoped it could work XD I'm so happy with Narcissus, she is such a big pretty lady <3

      @Lirin I was thinking to DZ nb56-001 body, but maybe it's too "cute" for my project. I'm trying to find a body that resembles a fox, (if this makes any sense)... I think a DC body would be perfect, too bad their necks are so thin. Also, I wanted to try with a serenade doll, but nothing.I will either buy a Dollstown or a Spiritdoll body :\

      Can't wait to see the new make up on your Narcissus <3
       
    3. Oh my I seriously love seeing all the pictures of everyone's dolls here. I want so many sculpts but where can I find them to buy sine I've checked all the websites of the artist?
      @Follow-the-Wind your dolls have such stunning face ups and well thought out character designs, it is breathtaking
      @Lirin I'm looking forward to seeing the new face up as well, take lots of pics!

    4. @KiwiNinamori thank you very much! :kitty2

      I can't resist to the new head. I've bought it! She will be a perfect sister for my Narcissus, Tsuyu XD
       
    5. hi is the company already closed? because i try to open their link but it is error..
       
    6. Definitely not active. GuujoY hasn't been on DoA for years. :(
      Their TB shop is still up, but I haven't seen anything new from them for quite a long time.

      EDIT: looks like still active in China. Does anyone have any contact?
      Because their usual TB is no showing new heads.

    7. I don't think the company is out of business! They have just released a new head, similar to Narcissus. Look in the previous page! If I recall, there's a picture of it.
       
    8. Like @Demiurgo, I don't think they're out of business. They release more than 6 new heads since they stopped selling dolls outside China.
       
    9. I tried to buy one new head but they refuse to sell even to Bhiner. :(
       
    10. @vampirevich As Follow said, they stopped selling outside China and it happens that sometimes even agents are blacklisted by companies that don't want to sell outside China. At this point, even asking Jeeryama (on ebay) should be useless, but you could try! Or group orders.... But I think this would be difficult too.
       
    11. I love Another Secret but since they don’t like foreign I will respect and keep away. :(
      I’m glade to have Acheron and he will be the only one.
      Acheron
       
    12. Does anyone know what the reason was? Why have Another Secret stopped selling outside of China?

      I see the heads come up from second hand sellers on Taobao. I would think that those you could get through Taobao agents.

    13. @vampirevich Maybe they had problems with customs and shipping. If I've leant something in this years of collecting is that shipping oversea is a pain in the a.s! Plus, really rude customers that open pp claims if the items don't arrive when they want (I read of people opening pp claims after 1 or 2 days that the package didn't show up outside their door)!
      They have released 6 more heads sice they closed their international shop, so it could be also that they wanted to have few customers and create more heads!

      I really want a Sui head rn, but I don't have money XD LOL Sui is an or-doll -.-" GG to me!

    14. I'm really sad they aren't selling outside China. I love so many of their sculpts. I can just hope they will eventually sell an old sculp on the marketplace used. The chances are slim of the ones I want.
       
    15. Weirdly enough my Red Riding Hood head on a Doll Chateau KID body worked! But I had to make a neck piece out of milliput which was NOT fun. I really wish someone made "neck sizers"...
       
    16. Uhm... Anyone knows what size of magnets should I buy for the Narcissus head? I think 4mmx3mm, but I'm not sure!
       
    17. I've got my new ANS!

      I will put her on a Dollzone body, the new girl body. I can't wait to complete her!

    18. @Follow-the-Wind Yay!! Congratulations! She's so beautiful- you're going to have a blast painting and styling her!! :kitty1
       
    19. Hey everyone! I have a hopefully not too odd request ... Would anyone happen to have an idea of whether or not this hybrid would work with a Doll Chateau Y-Body-07 lady centaur body (this one: Doll Parts, Doll Chateau - BJD Dolls, Accessories - Alice's Collections The neck is thicker than the other youth bodies so I'm hoping that will be enough to keep it from looking too odd but I have very little hyrbiding experience. I have a old Bamboo head I'd love to be able to do something kind of creepy and fun with and am really feeling that body, or something like it. I'm not worried at all about resin match, just the fit. Thanks!
