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 am planning on entering the DearSD lottery, but not holding my breath for a win. I'm not that lucky :sigh I am between Vanessa and Tiffany, they're both so stunning and I just adore Vanessa's resin color.

    3. Oh yes, Vanessa's Tan (formerly called Sunlight; so much more poetic!) resin is yummy.

      And her face-up is sooo sweet :whee:

      Good luck on entering the lottery -- remember, for sure you won't win if you don't enter! ;)

    5. They are beautiful! The color is lovely.
      Photo request….does anyone have a photo of dsd Mai? I can’t find any.
      She does not seem very popular.
      Thank you! :)
       
    6. I have Mai! In fact, I have two. My NS Mai came from before the DSD release, when I combined a standard Mai and the DSD body. Her sister arrived later.

    7. @snowgray Thank you so much! Both are lovely. The one on right is white resin? She is beautiful. Thank you for posting!! :) Does she have company face up?
       
    8. @Oliveoil, yes, the one on the right in red is white resin. She has the company faceup. Mai in white resin is extremely popular in Japan. Volks released a white SD version of her as a standard, and it sold out in a day. Mai is the SD version of the SDM mold F-33, who is also still very popular. Here is another photo of my girl:

      @beamlette, your Vanessa clan is so cute! I also love Volks' tan resin. I hope they release more DSD girls in this color.

      Good luck to everyone putting in for the lottery!

    9. @snowgray, thanks! Only the one on the left is mine; the center Vanessa belongs to justkatie179, and the one on the right belongs to madonnafanme. But I guess you could say they're related, and they all live in the same city ;)

    10. @snowgray Thank you! I found more photos on your Flickr account! :)
      She is perfect!
      Thank you!
       
    11. Entered for DSD Mai. This is going to be a anxious wait.
       
    12. Entered for Mai!

      I've been looking at DSDs for a while and have always wanted SD Mai so this seems like the perfect combination of the two! I really love their resemblance to old bisque dolls (which I'm sure is intentional since Volks really seems to lean into that vibe).

      I'm not confident I'll win, but since my birthday is this month I'm crossing my fingers!
       
    13. Just put in my entry for Mai. Seems like she's going to be popular at this rate!
      Best of luck to everyone!

      I told my mom over text I was entering for her and she was really confused why I was trying to order an deer anthro doll. I didn't even misspell it :lol:

    14. Entered for Vanessa! Mai is really pretty but I have Una so I need a tan to complete my skintone trifecta. Spouse is going to enter as well, his 'collection' is small but I don't think he's ever lost a lottery! More than I can say for me. :doh

    15. I'm in for Tiffany! It looks like she may not be the popular choice so I'm cautiously optimistic. Good luck to everyone! 24 days feels like such a long a wait to find out now.

    16. I entered for Mai too. She is just really sweet looking as a dear sd.

    17. @beamlette : Your Vanessa trio photo pushed me over the edge. I couldn't resist entering for the tan beauty. But seems like she is a popular DSD~ so fingers crossed for everyone! :)

      @5akuraD1va : Did you make those lovely dresses for your dears? I love the gothic lolita coord! <3

    18. sorry for the late response, yes, you can message me anytime ;)

      Yes, I made almost every dress, the only one purchased was the black and white with the bonnet.

      Crossing fingers for everyone entering the DearSd lottery! I hope some day Volks will open a lottery in the international site too, I would love to bring a sister to my Haruko

    19. Question - when your spouse created the Volks USA account, did the name show up as yours? I don't know why but my bf tried to create an account but the profile name still show up as mine for some reason...(because we use the same computer?)
