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.

What RACE are your dolls?

Dec 28, 2005

    1. The dolls I have and am planning on getting are all Asian ethnicity of some kind. :sweat I don't know why I do that! I guess it's just hard for me to see them as any other ethnicity.

      But so far I have one Japanese, one Korean, and am waiting on one Chinese. And I'm in the process of getting another Korean! For some reason I'm hung up on the Koreans. :XD:
       
    2. Anna is just American.

      Well, she was born in New York, as for origional origin, it might be Scotland or Ireland...

      Red hair, pale skin, that kind of stuff. I'm not sure, yet...
       
    3. this is haaaard~ I mean I just kinda take their nationality as the country I buy them from I guess >__< Anathema has always been Japanese to me and I think of Carmine as Korean....even though his character history is more fantasy and we don't have countries like that in there....way to point out my poor thinking!! hahaha
       
    4. Adrian is American, and Taruhi is a Japanese American. She and her family moved from Japan to the US when she was 5 and she eventually became a citizen.
       
    5. I would never give my dolls a race.... Things like that have messed me up for 15 years, and I'm not going to have it revived back thanks to this.:...(

      Though my dolls come from different cultural backgrounds, be it real or made up.:celebrate
       
    6. Race is hard to peg Clover with, she's still new to the family so I have to find what she is still XD But Rhiannon is easy, she's a Welsh Nymph (Rhiannon is the Queen of the nymphs)
       
    7. Ramla, whom I'm saving for at the moment, is Eastern African/Korean ....I'm going to dye her when I get her -D;;
       
    8. "Race" is kind of a generic term though-people use it in that way all the time...

      As for my dolls-I really haven't thought much about their "nationality," but all the dolls I have at the moment are human... I'm going to get a Mo eventually and he's going to be a demon of sorts ^.^;;!
       
    9. Well, they're all characters out of my story- which constitutes for a COMPLETELY different set of nationalities, for a completely different planet. u___u; They're all human, and they all speak English, I suppose. Loki's the only exception, he speaks about 10 different languages (and 4 more, that he can read but not speak very well :<).
       
    10. My Pineapple and Basil will be Native American. Even though it makes no sense, that's what I am. : P
       
    11. My boy's Asian. 100% Chinese :3 My future dolls include an European gentleman, a European Asian girl, and two more Asian boys.
       
    12. *points at siggy*

      Welsh.
       
    13. I actually feel that my Kun would be what my daugther would look like if my fiance and I ever have kids. So she would be Filipino, French, Spanish, Chinese, Middle Eastern, British, Irish, Austrian Jewish, German?, and Native American. Whew!!!
       
    14. Race? There is really only one race: That being human (or doll in this case).

      Then we have the Morlocks, but we do not talk about those.

      Ever...

      As for Ethnicity, cultural association and so forth, I concur with a previous post that such matters are constructs, but refute their argument about discrimination. Athropologically speaking groups exist primarily to protect and identify the 'self-group', or the 'family-group'. That has the side-effect of creating 'others', but the distinction is very important: Social groups are - by and large - created to support inwardly, rather than defame outwardly.

      And as for the Family:
      Verina is from Greece originally, but has lived in Surrey since she was five.
      Michael is English and has lived in Heidorn all his life, though his people (as he never bores of telling us) hailed from Norway in the dim and distant past.
      Helane is (or was when actually alive) from Normandy, though she relocated to Heidorn when her Mother inherited the heidorn Estates.
      Maiko: Is from Japan, but has lived long enough in England to pick up more than local accent.
       
    15. my fook twins are japanese, but not in the legitimate sense. they are oversexed tittering japanese schoolgirls, but only because there isnt that delicious stereotype of oversexed tittering peruvian schoolgirls >.< homage to the austin powers >.<
       
    16. Race? Human.
      Nationality? Canadian. All three that I have so far. (From one story)
       
    17. Alright I've added some dolls to my collection. :) So I'm updating. Along with the dolls in the first post I did I also now have...

      Atlantis - Dragon/Fairy (half German, half French)
      Shadow - Ghost [former vampire] (British)
      Kaeleb - Vampire Hunter/Vampire (unknown)
      Tempo - Human (American)

      And I'm waiting on...

      Cain - Werewolf (American)
       
    18. I guess her race would be elf, but I've always just thought of her as Canadian like me. In my head(I've never actually written out a story for Lisi, but this is pretty much it) she's always been like a little pixie or something, or like the mischievous little fairy in this children's story I used to read, so she really would be just a little Canadian elf.
