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 YoSD and YoTenshi Discussion part 7

Jan 3, 2015

    1. I think your sense of style for your dolls is great, [MENTION=6370]JennyNemesis[/MENTION]~ They are always very distinct! :D You definitely do a good job searching out the particular things you like for them.

      Yuuya is very cute, [MENTION=8584]spindlewood[/MENTION] ♥ I'm sure you'll figure out how you prefer to dress him at some point. :3
       
    2. Thank you so much [MENTION=35328]MilkyTea[/MENTION]! :) My Yos aren't babies, they're sort of ageless sprites... so I like putting these grown-up rockstar styles on them, because it just makes them seem like little sawed-off versions of their bigger roommates. There are so many great doll clothes out there. (It's storage that's the problem now. xD)

      My recent binge at Tata's Paradise included a perfect little Yo-sized microphone & stand. Add Nava and his B.C. Rich Warlock guitar, and we have a whole lotta metal going on up in here. [​IMG]

    3. Awww, that little guitar is so cute, [MENTION=6370]JennyNemesis[/MENTION]! X3 I know it's not supposed to be cute, but I can't help feeling that it's cute when I see a BC Rich Warlock so small!
       
    4. And now we see why you need a couple more chibis...
       
    5. Oh my GOODNESS it is so cute. The Most Evile Pointy Metal Guitar Evar, in chibi form! :chibi: I have no idea where it came from; someone in my building left it in a box of 'free moving-out stuff' in the lobby, many years ago, before I even started collecting dolls. I never had a doll-related need for it until Nava came along, et voila, they were made for each other.

      (There was also a tiny green BC Rich Mockingbird in the box, which I gave to my guitar-freak boyfriend at the time. Since he doesn't collect dolls, I wonder if he'd maybe give it back (because Eleniel is right, we do need a second guitarist now xD).)

      Haha, yeah, I'm pretty doomed, right? We need bass & drums! :lol: Well, there is always that Tsukasa to chase down, but I dunno if Volks is planning a Chibi Yukinojo....
       
    6. Hi all. It's been a while since I've been on the forums, so forgive me if I've posted in the wrong place.

      I'm currently on a study abroad trip in Japan (yay!) and I happened across a second hand sale the other day. I was able to find two yosd bodies at what I thought were EXCEPTIONAL prices there and on impulse I bought them (one assembled, one not). On inspection, I saw that there were little "VS" symbols engraved in the body parts that I am attributing to volks.

      My question is, is there any way I could tell if these are legit and not recast? There was no certificate for either (the bodies seem old, and I assumed the owner kept the certificate for the heads). I can post pictures a bit later as reference.

      T.I.A
       
    7. If you can post pictures, I'm sure we could help you out. :)
       
    8. I've missed this whole thread at least.
      in lieu of better pictures Gus is here for the first time with BOTH his sisters. (at least both my boys are the same size lol)

    12. So sorry for the late reply (classes have been keeping me busy...and lighting in my room here in Japan is not too good). Also turns out that someone hacked my photobucket account so I have to wait until customer service gets back to me about that.....
       
    13. Little Chika has joined my family. Her name is Christabell, but she prefers to be called Cricket. Her sister, Mika, is on layaway and hopefully will join us soon. :)

    14. Finally back in the US! Here's the picture(s) I took while I was in Japan of the dolls. Now that I'm home and in better lighting (and could compare them to my dolls), I can see that they are SEVERELY yellowed so I'm assuming they're really old. Is there any way to tell from these images at least if [​IMG][​IMG]I got two really old Volks bodies?
       
    15. Congrats Opal!

      Yukisaboten- I'd say if the weight feels right, they're probably just very old bodies.
       
    16. That's good to know. I've never owned a volks doll so I can only compare them to my other dolls. Thank you :)
       
    17. Thanks, Vertefae, she and Papi will get to meet on Saturday. :)
       
    18. I have a 09 Tanpopo and those definitely look authentic! Did you get them from Mandarake? Awesome place! And congrats! I hope you find the perfect head for those bodies lol :D
       
    19. Whoo! Yes! (Mandarake is awesome)
      I meant to only buy one cuz I have a head floating around, but I now have a body without a head. Thanks again!
       
    20. Mogi, like his sister is happiest outside in nature. he also just celebrated Seven years with me!
