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.

      I had that thought as well—Higos needs a long curly wig, breeches, and a coat!

      @xatshe

      Oh no! I hoped everyone would have similar luck to mine, but I must have just slid in before the holiday!

    4. I ordered a beast version Zacharias on the 19th of this month, now I'm curious how long it'll take him to arrive! I was hoping for early March, but figured that might be a bit optimistic with Chinese New Year happening. :lol:

      I ordered on the 17th if that helps. But I ordered on Taobao. I don’t know if it’s the same through international dealers.

    6. holy cow!!!!! i've just received message from my agent who helped me to buy head on taobao. she said that that was a misunderstanding about the date. my head is ready(!) and now is moving to her warehouse in China. so it's like 7 days since i placed my order?!

    12. Does anybody know if Steward human version will come with snake tongue parts as well?? I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm so excited I've found the perfect doll for my half snake and human character!!
       
      #132 Melancholic_dolly, Feb 10, 2018
    13. @Melancholic_dolly he is less than a month old - so nobody can have him yet. But you ask the seller on etsy I am sure they will answer you soon. (They could tell me that Zacharias beast head does come with the horns)

    14. @Melancholic_dolly

      I would guess not, but if the tongue part and head is casted separately (and I’d guess they are), they’d probably let you buy them.

      @Cyador

      I don’t know about that!:XD: The turnover for orders via Taobao seems to be 7-9 days (n=2)! Perhaps someone in China has already received and ordered him!

    15. hey-hey, i've got heads today!
      Death is mine, Ampil belongs to my friend.

      sorry for poor mobile photos
      [​IMG]

      Ampil Normal pink, Death normal yellow and Dikadoll qusu in a row. as you can see Ampil's head is way bigger even comparing with Death. i think it's strange actually

      US_death_ampil_dikadoll_qusu       by Natalie, on Flickr

      pink of Dikadoll and USdoll is almost identical. Normal yellow more ivory than yellow

      despite skin difference Death head looks good on Dikadoll 72 cm body
      [​IMG]
      Universedoll_death_dikadoll_72       by Natalie, on Flickr

      Ampil head is not really compatible with Dikadoll. and head size is only one of the problems. His neck hole is smaller than Death's. It's said about 10,5 cm but it's not. Dikadoll neck is 11 cm and it works for Death head but not for Ampil.

      Also for some reason Ampil doesn't have neck stopper inside the head for fixing hook!
      [​IMG]

      here comparing of the neck holes berween Qusu and Ampil. Qusu is 11 cm, Ampil suppose to be 10,5 but see for yourself. i don't think that it's even 10 cm

    16. @xatshe

      Oh, interesting! I did not expect the sculpting to be so different between heads. I have the two versions of the De'Ath head, and they are identical (and identical to yours). That's inconvenient about the S-hook stopper--I think all the heads I own (from MusenMusen and otherwise) have them.

      I'm also surprised that the normal yellow is so white because the milk white (which is kind of pink) is pretty white as well. (You'd think they'd go for darker than a resin with "white" in the name for their "normal" resins.)

    17. Looks like Ampil is can be put on body 75+ cause size of his head but since his neck even smaller than Death.. i don't know, it's pretty strange. and missing S-hook stopper. hard to explain

      Yellow is not quite white, i made photos on my cellphone with minimal retouch maybe that's why it looks so pale. skintone is very warn and darker than pink

    18. Whoa! That's very interesting indeed! :aeyepop:
      So many differences between them! I wonder how variable all the heads are from each other...? I also have D'eath, but was thinking of getting another head...one of the newer ones. Hmmm...I'll have to think on this.
      Thank you for the comparison!

      [Facepalm] I should have put in my response that Blanc is the same as my 2 De'Ath heads (skull and alive)
