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.

The Mini Centaur Thread

Oct 8, 2014

    1. Hi guys! I'm really new here, I only just got into the BJD community, and need a little advice. I'm in the market for a fullset Klaus Minifee centaur, but I'm not really sure where to search for him...he seems to be completely sold out on the Fairyland website and all the other listings for him are on Aliexpress and look sketchy. Any advice as to where I could find him or if he's ever going to come back in stock?

      Thanks in advance!!

      Once you get rights to the DoA marketplace, maybe try posting a "looking to buy" for him? Depending on where you live there might be an active doll community on Facebook or something too.
      I don't know if fairyland usually re-releases fullsets?

      Anyway, loving all the unique little centaurs here! I haven't any myself but maybe one day when I have more space.. . :)

      Aww ok, that’s sad to hear. Guess he’s gonna be my grail doll then lol. Thanks for the advice on the marketplaces though! I’ll definitely do that once I’m actually allowed on the marketplace.
       
    4. Aliexpress is a hotbed for recasts, so definitely a good call to avoid those listings. The buying/selling groups on Facebook are pretty active and a quick search reveals that someone sold a Klaus centaur earlier this year. I’d put out a WTB (want to buy)/ISO (in search of) post there while you work your way to DOA marketplace access. Not sure I can mention the groups by name here, so feel free to PM and I can point you in the right direction!

      Galatea got a new tank top! I think it’s more her style than her old galaxy print tube top :)

    12. @CranberriArts yes, I already commissioned someone from Russia for a Victorian style top
       
    13. @gaiboiozz That sounds awesome, can't wait to see it!
       
    14. Oh my gosh! I had no idea this thread existed! I am so happy! I have a weakness for centaurs, fauns, satyr type dolls! I just posted in introductions a few minutes ago. I think I found my home away from home!

    15. Wow! In reading through this thread, I am loving all the characters and customizations I'm seeing! Since I'm new to the BJD hobby, it didn't cross my mind to try modifying parts from different companies to work together. That's neat and inspiring to look at. Still, I think I'm going to stay on the lookout for Luts centaurs first while I look around. There's something about the way they sculpt the fringe at the bottom of the legs that intrigues me.

      Does anyone know if Luts has ever done rereleases of their story dolls? I'm guessing not since they released the characters in Honey Delf size instead of Kid Delf size recently.
       
    16. I have a question. Do cattaurs and wolftaurs fall under this category or do they have their own thread?
       
    17. I'm pretty sure they all belong here. :3 I've definitely posted about my cattaur, so I say, bring on the critters.

    18. Unfortunately they've not rereleased any of the full sets or anything but they certainly do release limited dolls of their KDF centaur bodies every couple of years. So hopefully they'll have a release some time where you can grab one! c:
      I only have experience with LUTS, SOOM, and Sio2 centaurs and the Luts KDF centaur body holds poses the best and stands solidly, in my opinion. There's a LOT more to choose from now that I haven't bothered with though so. There's probably plenty of other great sculpts with food posing!

      I THINK luts has done a rerelease of Yul. As a human at least. I believe there have been other cases where you could get her sculpt on some other set.
      So if nothing else, you can always look for a centaur body secondhand and try to buy a head that matches what you're looking for.
       
    19. This is more or less what I'm looking for. While Jamong Pegasus from 2014 is my grail doll, I definitely want some blanks of that sculpt in other different resin colors if possible!

      I prefer the scale of the MDF centaur but we'll see. Maybe one day I'll be able to see the market. Or luts will unintentionally grant my wish for blank centaur bodies! They certainly did with the recent Fairy Forest Fauns!
       
    20. Oh man as far as I'm aware they've only done the one release of the MDF centaurs but boy do I hope they'll do another run with them because I want one too!
