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.

Unoa Ver. 2 (Milk/Cream & Choco/Mocha) on YJA

Aug 23, 2006

    1. I thought this deserved a spot in the News section, as there's been no word on these beauties since they were first hinted at months and months ago (oh, those teasing, tantalizing pictures!). I just spotted the lasses on Yahoo! Japan Auctions. When we were first shown picture of them, they were named as Milk and Choco, but it seems they've since been changed to Cream and Mocha, respectively.

      They come with several foot/heel options (optional soles of their feet) and also an optional face plate, from the looks of things. Their jointing is beautiful, too. I think Araki may have come close to having outdone himself, this time!

      Seems they're from a limited sale at a festival - maybe Dolpa? Maybe another one? It's not that clear. But it's nice to see that they have been sold to the public, at least in small quantities. Maybe we'll see more signs of them (internationally) soon!

    2. From the looks of it, it seems that Coco and Milk don't have extra faceplates like sleepy, O-face and angry face. It's just an extra copy of their default face, right?

    4. I think it's a non smiling one and their default has a hint of a smile...hard to tell though

    6. Man the price is going high >_< I will never get a assembled Mocha at that rate!!

      Does anyone know when the next festival is held where more of these assembled sets will be sold?
      And what size eyes do they wear??

    7. Araki-san writes in his diary that he's participating in a doll show on the 18th of September and so will be selling the Unoa 2nds there as well. (He doesn't say which show it is, but I'm sure it would be easy to find out.) He said for information about them after that, to please check his diary next month. Oh, he also mentions that people can only buy one of each; he won't allow people to buy large quantities of them.
