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.

SWITCH Discussion ~ Part IX

Apr 27, 2021

    1. Have you guys seen that Switch are going to exhibit the new 64 cm girl body at an event in Korea? It’s so pretty! :D
       
    2. I just saw it! It does look nice but I was personally hoping for a shorter girl body.

      Here are the tweets for reference if anyone else wants a look
      - New 64cm girl body
      - New Shati head
      - New Kaien head

      I wonder if Shati and Kaien are going to be monthly heads.
       
    3. Thanks for sharing @Niel and @namika, the news had completely skipped me ^^;

      I am personally not particularly interested in the girls as I adore Switch pretty much exclusively for the boys xD But I hope people will enjoy the new body - 64cm is a great size!

      Would anybody know if any of the clothing items and accessories that will be available at the event will also be sold online later on? I love the suits and jewellery ♡
       
    4. I just saw it too! Love the girl body! :XD:

      I hope Shati and Kaein will be monthly heads! That would be great!

      Wonder if Switch will sell those lovely suits online. I always miss the chance to buy from them.

      Let's keep an eye on them! They might do something great for Xmas!
       
    5. Switch just tweeted that the girl body's order starts from 29th December!
       
    6. Oof... I really like that silk shirt though. Fingers crossed for an online release, hopefully in different colours. :D

    7. I've been waiting for almost two years for them to release their girl body, and I'm sadly disappointed. It looks like they've restyled the body. This is what the body looked like when they first showed pictures, https://twitter.com/fromSWITCH/status/1354356570214207493.

      I guess I'll be continuing my search for a taller androgynous female body.
       
    8. Did they? To me it looks the same as the type A body from the older photos but with heel legs. Maybe I'm missing something...
       
    9. I agree. The girl body they are releasing now looks like the type A body. Type B is the more androgynous body and maybe they'll release that one later?
       
    10. Even comparing it to the type A body to me the waist looks slimmer, and the hips curvier. The shoulders also look narrower, but that could be an angle thing. Both of the earlier bodies give me a more tomboyish feel, where as the current body feels more like the typical female body a lot companies are doing now. Now, maybe that was all just the lighting in the previous pictures hiding some details. Anyway, I asked them about it on Twitter.

    11. I'm personally very happy for the girl body because I want it for hybrids with the few girls I own, but I feel bad for anyone disappointed from the last teaser.

      I selfishly hope Switch doesn't lean towards girls too much, but it looks like they're exploring that. They're my favorite company and I only really collect boys and love them for their boys, so I hope they don't stray too much.

    12. Switch finally got back to me and they said it's the same body as the Type A they showed before. Unfortunate for me (but good for my wallet I guess) since I really needed something different. Back to the search I go.

    13. Hello! New to this thread and to SWITCH in general:whee: I just purchased an Ajeong Closer head in milktea rose and I'm wondering what company would have bodies that would be the best match colorwise? I'm hoping to find something not too overly muscular, but I figured it would be best to ask around as I'm new to the hobby and this will be my first boy doll ever.

    14. @aoikoibito I have my rosy white AC head on a color matched DF-A 68cm body. I believe DF-A still does coloring matching requests for milk tea rose as well. Here's my Waseon on the left who also has the same body, and who's head is roughly the same size as AC's, DF-A & Migidoll 68cm Body Comp - Album on Imgur. I haven't taken any pictures of my AC nude on the body, but here he is clothed, Becca on Instagram: "Just more pictures of Crow. #switchajeongcloser #bjd #bjdstagram #bjdphotography", More pics.

    15. Thank you for the pictures! That's really helpful, I was looking at DF bodies and it's good to know that they do color matching as well~

    16. Hi everyone!

      I used to be in the BJD hobby over ten years ago. I have an OG Milhwa head I never had the funds to complete. Also, if I did decide to build it up, what bodies might still match the skin tone? Or should I look into doing some major shading to get it to match-ish?

      Thanks so much!!

    17. @OliviaJ Welcome back to the board! I would suggest removing your first question because there's a rule against "asking for help pricing items for sale".

      For your other question I have my Milhwa head on a DF-H 65cm body. I can't say how well they'd match with a 10 year old Switch head though. While they do offer color matching with Switch resin, it's all for Switch's current resin colors.
       
    18. Hi! :kitty2 I'm thinking of getting a Dollstown 18yr boy body for my rosy white Doha. I was wondering if anyone's tried anything similar? The proportions look similar to the hd70 body, but the shoulders are slimmer... Thanks in advance for any help~
       
    19. I'm very happy they finally released a girl body with a jointed torso :).

      Most likely I'll put one on order in January. Just have to get over that voice in my head telling me NS or WS bodies will inevitably show up second hand so patience might pay out ;). But I want their endeavour to get back into girls to be successfull.
       
    20. I ended up ordering the 65 attractive body and it arrived today! It took less than a week to get here so I'm super surprised:o
      Here is my Ajeong Closer borrowing some clothes from my girls
