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.

    2. I finally have my own DearSD and she's also my first Nono! I really love the size, and wow, I am amazed at how heavy she is!

      Her name is Jericho and she's got some attitude.

    3. Hi, Volks just announced the next DearSds...but I don't really understand how the event works and if I'm able to order one? I'm new to Volks and really love the first girl in the blog. I think she's Dear Kira? Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you!

    4. The DearSD event will only be happening in person at Tenshi no Mado in Tokyo. Looks like the release will be Kira, Nono, and Rinon from the pictures. You'd have to go in person and line up in order to put your name in for one, and then it'd be a lottery to see who gets them.

      As far as I know, Volks has never allowed an online order/lottery for DearSD in Japan, only a few times through VolksUSA for the US.

      You could keep an eye out on yahoo japan, Mandarake, or Dollyteria after the event to see if anyone sells one secondhand

    5. Thank you so much for the info. Sad that it isn't online but I'll keep my eye out on the secondhand market. Thank you!!!

    6. @inhyeong, you can also look for a DearSD body and a Four Sisters/F-01 (Kira/Nana/Sara/Megu) head separately, then combine them. The Four Sisters mold is very popular, so it's not hard to find that head by itself, and that head will fit the DearSD body even if it is from a different release.

    7. I've ordered both color variants of the new DearSD outfit from Volks and I must say that I'm very happy with the overall look on my DSD Coco :3nodding:

      i was able to hold off participating in the last online dolpa, but the addition of dear sd to this one might force my hand. especially for a sweet dream una.

    9. It looks like DearSD Aya is getting another release this time? Aaah, if only I weren't in the middle of buying a home! I guess my existing dolls would like a nice doll room though :lol:

      Edit to add: The lottery info page is online! There are nine sculpt options and lottery runs August 14th (Friday) to August 20th (Thursday) 12:00, 2020.

    10. I don’t understand the instructions. Can we enter for more than one sculpt? I’d like to enter for Megu and Una.

    11. My Dolpa outfits arrived and I love the DearSD dress I got and it fits Jericho perfectly

    12. Hi everyone! Just joining this chat for the first time as I’ve just had an email that’s made my day.

      I won the lottery for a DearSD Una! I fell in love with her blonde wig and I love the Four Sisters sculpt, so couldn’t resist entering.

      Just off to pay for her now. My day is officially made. :3

    13. Hey, did you have any trouble paying? I tried two different cards in good standing and it kept saying it couldn't process them.

      Edit: Ah, nevermind. Got it sorted.

    14. Glad you got it sorted! I didn’t have any problems luckily. Went straight through.

      Who’d you win? :3
       
      #274 Lautturi, Aug 26, 2020
    15. Congrats to the winners!
       
      #275 Cloudedmind, Aug 26, 2020
    16. Congratulations! It was hard to resist entering for Una. She's so pretty! But I did enter for a Sweet Dream Show AND WON! :D The little guy might not be staying in one piece though, as I'm hoping my partner wins the Young Cecile so we can make a DearSD Cecile and an SD Show. (Why don't they translate it as Syo anymore?)

    17. Super congratulations to you too! <3 That sounds adorable with a DearSD Cecile!

      I do wonder why they don’t translate it as Syo anymore.

      I entered for Una and Megu but you can guess who I wanted most of all, and I got her. Absolutely thrilled, quietly hoping for the cute floral socks because they’re adorable.

      Will you put Cecile in the DSD default outfit? The one for the boys is adorable!
       
      #277 Lautturi, Aug 26, 2020
    18. Absolutely! It will make him into a tiny version of the first Cecile. Back when he was new and @idrisfynn was trying to convince me she needed him, I thought his Little Lord Fountleroy outfit and old old school face-up were atrocious for a $600 doll. But here we are trying to recreate him! :XD:

    19. Una. :dance

    20. YAY! Another Una!
      My card always gets rejected too, but the rep I talked to from my bank this morning gave me a tip that made it work. If you put in a travel notification for Japan for the day you plan to charge the card, it goes right past the Mastercard international transaction block.
