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.

Tae or IL - Orientdoll.com questions

May 2, 2006

    1. Dear all! Please help if you know...

      (1) How long does it take for Orientdoll to complete your order (basic Tae no makeup) until he arrives at your home? Has anyone tried ordering 2 and would this mean they take longer to make?

      (2) Where can I buy fibre wigs and eyes that would suit his small head? For the wig what's the biggest size I can still put on him without it being too loose or look too big?

      (3) Would a Leekeworld doll size wig fit him? Leekeworld doll is like this --> DollLeeke Unfortunately they do not supply information about their head size. But I'm guessing they are smaller than most MSD? Tae's head circumference is 5.5 inch.

      Thanks so much!
       
    2. From what I've seen from those with a Tae, his head is much smaller than your normal MSD head, so I'm not sure if a LeekeWorld wig would fit him.
       
    3. Helene, there is a thread on Tae in the Incoming Doll forum... Those of us who ordered Special Tae with faceup and clothes, etc., are still waiting - some ordered in March and some April 10th (I'm one of them). There are pics of him in the thread, with comparison shots with other MSDs. Right now I think Orientdoll is spazzing over bad weather to do faceups in and perhaps being overwhelmed with orders from people who went Tae-crazy. :>) But your chances of getting him more quickly are better if you get him basic with no faceup. Hope this helps! :>)

      Forgot about the wig issue. I believe he is a size 4 wig, and I know Kemper makes that size, and their website has mohair, synthetic mohair and something else I'm forgetting. As for the Leekeworld wigs, I believe the smallest is 6.5. I could be wrong, though...
       
    4. Doll Leeke wigs don't fit at all. They're 6.5" and swallow his entire head. Lati Yellow wigs look as they might, they're 5.5". Cancan has a few in that size, but they're mostly little kid styles. Haven't gotten mine yet, will update when I do.
       
    5. 8mm eyes are easy
      Artistique , Volks
      Orrientdoll also sell them Freespiritz in the US

      or if you prefere better quality eyes , Masterpeice and Ethereal Eyecandies
      ask in the tiny section and we can give you loads of info :)

      he is a beautiful boy ...Im very tempted to sell my DZ boy to get Tae!
      I much prefere the smaller size

      as the head is so small you could try Leeke size wigs , CanCan wigs for the SDYO

      I make fur wigs and tibbetan wool wigs too
       
    6. Tae takes 5.5 wig--I measured his head.

      Barbie and that ilk are too small (at 4); the 43 cm resin crowd too large--this includes the 30cm child dolls, like the YOs, CP Cutie Delfs, and CH Petite Ai, which take 6 or 6/7.

      For clothes--I own some Matt O'Neill clothing; leg length okay, but the crotch depth and waist size is noticably large. Barbie-Ken shorts could pull up, but will not fasten by probably 6+mm.

      My Tae can wear Cutie Delf shoes!

    7. I was thinking of getting a Dae Il and make Cloud with him... I think he looks lovely but I would probably have to make his clothing ... all my guys are huge and now I am craving some smaller ones... ick...
       
    8. Wigs for Lati yellow should fit, or any Monique/Kemper/Global wig that is 5-6". His head is really small, reminds me of a Tonner guy.

      Maybe if you want a boy style, a Monique Johnny in a 5-6 would work? There are also a couple of eBay sellers that do wigs for Sybarite, and those are in that range....Jpop has some mohair ones that look wonderful.
       
    9. Bump(? I need to know if Leekeworld is the only shop that sells Orientdoll? Since the OD site no longer exists and I think DDE used to sell them, but I think they no longer do.
       
    10. Someone on another forum was wanting to see Tae or Il with a Chicline boy/girl. Anyone have them both?
       
    11. azuulada, I believe you are right that only LeeKeworld sells the OrientDoll dolls now.
      I had not realized any company still sold them.
