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.

    1. Yor Forger has been going through Towa's old outfits... nyan nyan.

      Yor's wearing a Cotindoll wig and Uzuki has a very cheap AliExpress wig. The AliExpress wig is beaten up after a lot of wearing and outdoor photoshoots but when it was new it was sensational.

      If anyone is sitting on the fence, Yor Forger is a spectacular Dollfie. Her semi-white vinyl looks amazing. I'm also glad they made a her a Dynamite as it seemed like this line was dying out (except for Towa and the occasional special).

      I haven't put Yor in her default outfit yet because we had a nasty nasty incident with some black pleather that stained another girl really bad. Fortunately acne creme and a LOT of heat fixed the issue, but I'm still wary.

      As for boys, I so badly want to turn Kaito into Loid Forger.

    5. Congrats - she's a real beauty and I love her outfits.

      Yesterday I was looking through the list of old collaboration models and a couple really caught my eye. This morning while looking at the ending soon auctions on Yahoo Japan I found one was actually available.

      All being well the latest member of our Dollfie family will be Erica Fontaine. Does anybody have her? I'm still undecided about her face, but I think her outfit is totally kick ass awesome. I'm trying to get some sort of similar look for my DDdy Towa, but haven't yet found the right outfit.

      Anyway, I think I got Erica for a decent price. It's kind of difficult to know given she doesn't come up for sale that often. She can be besties with Kirika, my other less well known limited release Dollfie.

    6. Congrats on finding your doll, @Xiongmao! I'm still new to Dollfies, so I had to look her up. What a cool looking girl!

      Its a bit late for Valentine's day, but Miku's Mikuzukin outfit came home a bit ago. I'm so in love with how cute she is in it!

    7. Yor Forger is a real beauty. She looks so much cuter than in the promotional pictures.

    10. @Chantelle I agree that Shin Sato is amazingly beautiful! Thank you for sharing! Another girl to add to the ‘if I could I would list’.

    11. Anyone like the manga/anime ARIA here? I find this DD release of Ciel reminds me of Aika from ARIA so much that I'm tempted to customize her into Aika if I can get one :love

    13. I've also got Kaito coming. He'll be my first boy doll so you don't need me to tell you all how excited my many girl dolls will be about his arrival. There could be much doll drama in the months ahead.

      I've also bought Shin Sato and Ciel. I just got them from YJA Dolpa resellers because I honestly cannot be bothered with the clickwars again. There was a markup of course, but their prices weren't bad. It can be quite difficult to find the limited releases afterwards. Yor Forger is still pretty rare.

      I might make Ciel into Violet Evergarden. Shin Sato was my slight favourite as I love smiley DD. I love Ciel's outfit, and I also picked up her other outfit. Thankfully it wasn't selling for a crazy markup.

      As for my existing DD, here's my Big Dango Family (Uzuki left, Rin right). Clannad is well worth watching, and all the better if your dolls have the outfits from the shows you're watching together.

    14. I think I've confused myself looking at the Volks international site. What are the differences between the DD-f3 frame and the dolls without a frame specified? I don't know much about Vinyl...
       
      #134 SaltedPretzel, May 20, 2023
    15. Which dolls are you interested in? The DD-f3 is the newest frame but it's possible they have some older models in stock using the DD III frame. Anything from the last few years would be on DD-f3 though.

    16. I'm interested in Mirai and Miko! Mirai has the dd-f3 frame but Miko doesn't have a frame type listed.

      Thank you for your response!
       
      #136 SaltedPretzel, May 26, 2023
    17. Miko is a discontinued standard model that was never updated to f3, so the stock of her that’s left will be on the older frame (DDIII). There’s nothing wrong with that frame, but keep in mind that f3 frame parts aren’t compatible and DDIII frame parts aren’t sold anymore.

    18. I finally got my shipping notification for DD boy Kaito. I’m so excited!!!! I finally will have a DD boy :)

    19. @MrFjmg2003 congratulations on your Kaito being shipped! I just got my first DD boy too (secondhand Len). I’m seriously thinking I will need another guy someday as I just love Volks vinyl dolls so much. Please share pics of your gorgeous guy!

    20. Have any U.S. buyers of Kaito been charged import fees? I'm purchasing a Kaito directly from someone who can't keep him. Neither of us has ever had import fees on Volks shipments from Japan before. Thanks for any input.

      The carrier is DHL.
