Villitunes sent me a message today saying my cyclops shipped!!! YAY!!! Still waiting to hear back on a tracking number, but I am so excited. I can't wait to share photos when she arrives. Does anyone have any idea how long it takes to ship a doll from Russia to the USA???
I haven't had too many things from Russia, but it can vary a LOT and usually takes longer than from other parts of the world. Some people have had EMS take a month or so! But I've also gotten smaller packets pretty quickly, so who knows...? Good luck! And great news about the shipping!!!
Thank you so much---both for the congrats and for sharing your experiences with me! I just got my tracking number so I'll be stalking USPS' website for the next week(s), lol. I'm hoping she arrives before Christmas, at least.
I haven't heard a peep yet. I'm used to companies that send out dolls in batches but she seems to be sending hers out one at a time, perhaps as she finishes each individually. Does anyone know if that's the case?
I've seen Villitunes post photos of batches sent out all at once (on her Instagram) before. I haven't seen pics like that in a few months, though. I dunno if my cyclops can count towards how she generally ships, though, since mine doesn't have an actual order attached (being a DOA contest prize). May have shipped my Ziggy individually. Or maybe with others? I know someone on IG who is expecting two cyclops and has shared confirmation they are both painted back in mid-October... but I haven't seen them post any shipping updates. But then not everyone shares shipping updates so... Anyway, I'm sorry you haven't heard anything yet. I hope you do soon!!!
@PeppermintPocky , thanks, I usually don't sweat these things but since I'm seeing owner pics pop up I can't help but wonder.
No problem. Have you tried emailing Villitunes for an update? From my experience she is very pleasant---she may take awhile to respond, but she does. If you're concerned it may be worth contacting her. Or if you have Instagram you could message her there. That's how I communicated with her 90% of the time. She posts an update/photo almost every day so she def' checks it!
@PeppermintPocky , I'm too lazy to email her yet. I'm not worried, just looking forward to getting my Mizuki!
I finally did the faceup on my Mizuki and she looks so cute! I colored her lips and I'm still debating is I should put gloss on them or not. Also, no eyebrow because I liked her better without them. Now I just have to make a wig and customized her eye. Sorry for the turned picture but no matter I uploaded the site I used would do this DX
My cyclops arrived in the USA this morning! YAY!!! I'm hoping she is delivered before Thanksgiving! She is SO CUTE!!!
Hi folks!!! My lil' cyclops arrived yesterday and I'm on cloud nine! I posted a bunch of box opening photos in the appropriate subforum, as well as a *gasp* video! I've never been brave enough to make a dolly box opening video before, but I took the leap for this cutie. https://denofangels.com/threads/an-alien-has-landed-villitunes-cylcops-mizuki-pictures-video.761717/ Anyway, Ziggy hopes all your space cuties arrive soon!
Sorry to double post but for those of you who watched my box opening video, yes, I took Ziggy to get ice cream!
Has anyone heard any updates on their Mizuki orders? I saw Villitunes announce next summer they are gonna be released in yellow and pink---I may have to try and get Ziggy a sibling. Speaking of my Ziggy, she seems to have developed a sweet tooth! She's particularly fond of donuts.
Is mizuki the little cyclops? Cause I would love to be able to get one some day if they are being rereleased ))
