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.

Volks DearSD 43cm Discussion Part 2

Jul 28, 2017

Page 32 of 41
    1. Can anyone tell me when Volks typically offers these girls? I've recently become really interested in owning a DearSD Megu but I can't tell when ordering periods are or if Volks LA participates. Do they allow you to customize them like their other dolls or are they fullsets only?
      And I guess my last question is, do they typically fit SD10 girl shoes?
      I'm pretty unfamiliar with Volks, especially this size.

    2. DearSD have come out online once for US buyers. They’re released at Volks events like Dolpa or smaller events like Mado’s anniversary. They are only available from the company as fullsets. Most SD10 shoes are a little loose but doable (ankle boots are usually okay), and Volks has started marking their own shoes for if they fit DSD or not.

      That said, Megu/F-01 is an extremely common head. If you’re willing to buy secondhand, you can probably put together an F-01 head and a body pretty easily.

    3. Does someone have a Pic of their DSD together with a Yosd and MSD maybe? Just to see how they compare?

      And the wiki says Disney Animator clothes fit, did someone try it out and can show me how this looks? I think Animators might be chubbier?

      Waiting to get my smol Anna & Elsa from my proxy next month once I pay them off

      I don't have any MSDs but here's a photo of a YoSD and DearSD standing together

    7. Congrats on the smols! I don't have a YoSD, nor Volks MSDs if that's what you mean, but I do have a number of slim MSDs if that would help? I grabbed a pic with my Megu next to a couple of them.

      [​IMG]

      Proportions are majorly different between the two for sure. Megu's got a big ol' noggin compared to everyone else! And hands, and chunky limbs, and a chunky torso... I haven't even bothered trying to see if she fits any of my other dolls' clothes. She looks very baby-like compared to the more teenager/young adult-y slim MSDs.

      As for Disney Animators clothes, I don't have any premade ones, but I grabbed a couple sewing patterns and a knitting pattern for them. The one sewing pattern I did (a dress) needed some length on the sides, but armholes and everything worked. Skirt might have needed to be longer, too. The knitting pattern (also a dress) fit perfectly, though I did do my own thing for its length.

    8. I'm purchasing a DearSD Mai from a friend on layaway and excited for my first DearSD. I've had many big babies over the years though and currently have a Luts and a Rosenlied. Been online shopping for Mai. Does anyone know if DearSD can wear Monique Gold brand 8-9" wigs? I found the absolutely perfect wig for Mai, but it only was made up to 8-9". I know Monique Gold wigs specifically can often stretch a bit bigger as I currently have a 7-8" Monique Gold wig on a Delf that otherwise wears 8-9" wigs. Would love to know if anyone has tried an 8-9" Monique Gold wig on their DearSD, or should I just only look at actual 9-10" wigs?

    9. @Cap'n wig size for DSD depends on the head sculpt. The sculpts weren't changed between SD and DSD versions. I believe Mai is 8-9 though. Any of the four sisters would be 9-10 and some other big headed old girls too.
       
      #629 nyaaain, Jan 15, 2023
    10. Oh cool, if Mai is 8-9" then that will make things so much easier. Would love to hear from anyone whom might own a Mai as well. I already have a Monique Gold 8-9" wig I can try on Mai when she arrives, but I'm also a bit worried that the wig I found may be sold by then so I may not be able to wait too long to order it. >.<
       
      #630 Cap'n, Jan 15, 2023
    11. I have a Mai and she can fit into stretchy 8-9 wigs. I own a lot of Monique wigs and I think she fits all of them. She wouldn’t fit a non-stretchy 8-9, but Moniques should be fine.

    12. Thanks so much for the info! Makes me feel a lot better about ordering a 8-9" Monique Gold wig now. I may even order 2 in different styles. :D

    13. I'd like to share my first Dear SD! She is a Nana which I adopted from a very kind DoA member. I have a weak spot for the Four Sisters sculpt, already got two SD10 and one SD13 version of them, and I always wished for a Dear SD. Now my dream came true (and she was put up for sale at my birthday - what a coincidence!)

    16. @Sadomina Congrats on your F-01! With her dress and background she has a bit of a spooky Wednesday Addams sort-of vibe.

      New girl Kaiya (F-98) has joined my chubby baby family :D Volks has been doing DearSD events at Mado lately. I hope they will keep adding new heads to the lineup! F-98 is so popular, and I think she looks great on the DearSD body.

    17. I'm awaiting my first DSD at the moment (a WS Mai) and in the meantime snagged a My Garden set. Had to try the outfit on my Baby Delf Pansy first. Other than the shoulders being a little wider, it fits! My big babies will be able to share clothes. <3

      Haha, yes, I admit that I cannot hide my love for the dark :blush
      Congrats on your new chubby girl, she is really stunning! :D

    20. I’m excited! I should be putting a dsd Anna on layaway. It will be a long time till she gets here. My best friend has an Elsa and I wanted to get Anna since she always calls me her sister so I thought it would be appropriate! <3 does anyone else have Anna and would be willing to spam?
