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. Have you heard of this new SD17? It'll be released next month I think and it would be bigger than SD16. Hrrmmm, Volks is not trying to make dolls as big as humans right?:sweat

      Hm, random talk. I just thought that maybe volks should try making more MSD LimitEDs :| err, right?


      *still in dire search of the right MSD:|*

    3. Did a couple of threads just get merged? :?

      FYI, the first post has been updated with information about Reisner. If you have additional information about him that you think belongs in that first post, please let me know and I will add it!

    4. Yeah I think they did... haha

      But gah... Do you have to pay up front with the Volks lottery or can you pay a bit later?

    5. I was trying to asnwer your question, but Manami already put a thread together where she explains it much better:sweat

      http://denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?t=131872

      Her thread should help you with any questions you may have on how the lottery works exactly;)

    6. For the lottery, Volks does a "test charge" on your card when you enter. For me at least, it showed up as a pending charge on my account, and those funds were unavailable to me until Volks made the charge go away just before they determined who the winners were. :| And then if you win, the charge will show up again and it will go through -- you have to pay the whole amount up front.

      ETA: that is a great link to post, Anthony! :D Manami did a wonderful job, IMHO. :)

    7. Does anyone know how big he is yet? Darn it, I narrowly evaded bermann lust and here comes another big boy to make me sorry that I'm poor.:...(

    9. *_* I seriously have Reisner's Disease. I can't answer email because I'm looking at my desktop photo of him. When I'm away from the computer I carry a printed photo. I keep telling my SD10, Blacky, that he will certainly sail into our lives...and how can she forgive me if I fail in the lottery??? I will be as thin as he is by the time we find out if we've won!

      Shopping is Not supposed to be this traumatic. This is more like getting married or adopting a baby.

      Somebody please knock me out till the 4th of May:aeyepop:

    12. Blast, I keep forgetting that there's two threads I need to post this stuff in, heh! ;) Thanks for the inadvertant reminder, Anthony!

      *cross-posts*

      http://www.volks.co.jp/jp/event/dolpa17/ginka/ginkasp_index.html

      *ahem* *clears throat* *intones in mystic voice*

      :) (Sorry for the dodgy translation, suffering insomnia!)

      Basically, it's a special One-Off booth separate to the other one-offs. It's to show off a special one-off Reisner, along with a one-off Cecile. Anyone can go in and look but there's a queue and you have to go in order. When you go out the other side after looking, then you can enter a lottery to purchase the One-Off Reisner or Cecile if you want. (Though not required, you can just enter to gawk if you want. :) ) Viewing is from 10am to 3pm, lottery entries are from 10am to 2:30pm, after which the winners will be drawn.

      They had something like this at the last major Dolpa, with several Amelias as the special One-Offs:

    14. I reckon they'll let us sweat for another few days.. :sweat And they always seem to do the updating in the late evening Japanese time. (I always have these images of the poor frazzled Volks employees hunched over their desks, working until midnight to get everything done in time for Dolpa. ;) I know they're aaaalways crazy busy right before a Dolpa.) I'm only 1 hour different from Japan timewise so it's easy for me to convert, and I'm always like, "...why are they still at the office uploading pics at this hour?" :o

    16. Reisner inspires lunacy for me because I just found this old pirate flash that has to be so annoying but I keep pretending it is Reisner. I think the song is from Lazytown. >_>

    19. There, there now. We must have stout hearts and cling to the ropes. We must ride out the storm and show ourselves worthy.

      That's the thought I'm going with anyway.

      Sigh...
