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.

    3. I wasn't expecting to get Macha, I'm so happy! At this rate, she will arrives around the same time frame as my Elsa pre-order too.

      I hope that this mean USA start to get lottery for dolls like JP does. I'm still hoping one day I get to win a Loraine - my ultimate grail.

    4. I didn't get her either! Thank you for those who posted, so at least I know the emails went out already. Last time I entered a Lotto on Volks USA was.... 2016?? It's been a while!

      Was the previous Rose of Versailles release available through VolksUSA?

    7. Ahh I think I'll try for Oscar :D She's been one of those sculpts that I never even allowed myself to seriously consider, since she was so expensive. Exciting!

    8. I think this is the reason I decided not to try for anything else ... didn't want to risk this kind of heart attack too. We can be Yumepi losers together. :sweat

    9. Kind of an odd question, but does anyone have a comparison of the SDGr body vs. the SD13 Revival beyond the official Volks one? I’m curious to hear thoughts on the SD13 Revival Body in general.
       
    10. @mustbemissa, here's a pic I have comparing torsos of the Revival body (left) and the Graffiti body (right) --

      I like both bodies. To me the Revival body is the best of both worlds, having the added articulation that the old SD13 boy body lacked (double-jointed elbows and knees), and I especially prefer the slightly broader shoulders. I always found it odd that the Graffiti body seemed to have narrower shoulders than the old SD13 and the Revival (and narrower hips as well), but I like the sullen adolescent slouch of the Graffiti body :3nodding::lol:

    11. @beamlette, this is perfect! Thank you. I was thinking along the same lines - I liked the postured of the Revival body a lot, and I’m glad they have broader shoulders.
       
    12. @beamlette Does the torso joint on the Revival body actually stay in place when you position it? I always liked the look of the old SD13 body, but what put me off it was that the torso joint was essentially useless. It only stayed in one place. (Maybe it was may fault somehow though? lol)
       
    13. @mustbemissa, you're welcome -- I'm glad I could be of some help!

      @overlordu, I'm ashamed to say I haven't challenged my Revival body to do any fancy posing; sorry! :sweat But the same can be said of my Graffiti body boys too. Something to put on my to-do list! :3nodding:

    14. Congrats to the winners! I liked Macha, but I'm definitely at a point in my collecting where I just leave the wildfowers where they are for everyone else to enjoy. :kitty2

      The Revival body has a different feel than either the 13 or the Gr, but that might just be me. I really love the weighty drape of the 13 and I don't love the snappy action of the Gr. The Revival doesn't make me nervous that it's going to pitch forward at the waist like the Gr and the torso joint is flexible and stays where you put it.

    15. Weird question, but during the last outfit release with the shrimp bag and all that, I was having trouble ordering. Like, it'd go to the last page and I'd check out with PayPal and then Volks would tell me it didn't go through and to try again. I heard a few other people were also having this issue. Eventually, it went through.

      But I looked at my bank account this morning and Volks still charged me for each attempt even though it didn't go through on their website (there is no order history). So I got charged 3 times.

      Every time I've contacted Volks in the past it took them a month or so to get back to me, so I'm not sure what to do? Is this a thing anyone has experienced before too or like... help
       
    16. I was double charged once when my PayPal failed and then I checked out via credit card, only to see the PayPal charge went through. I emailed them with the order number and the PayPal invoice numbers explaining the situation and they put in a reversal on the extra PayPal charge within two days so I’d just reach out and they should be quick with this one. The email that resolved the issue for me was - [email protected] though I first emailed the PayPal email directly.

    17. Thank you! I contacted them with all the info. Hopefully they can reverse it quickly because it's a few hundred dollars of failed attempts on top of the successful one. Gonna starve XD
       
    18. Does anyone have a photo of Reggie and RG Williams together? I would love to see it for reasons.
       
    19. @nyaaain : Look up user zanntya_ on IG. They posted a short shoot of their Reggie and RG Williams together. :)
