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 size eyes do Realpukis use?

May 19, 2016

    1. I have looked on Denver doll and cannot find this info anywhere...do Realpukis use 8 mm or 6 mm eyes? I thought it was 8 mm but they looked too large on ebay. Maybe I am looking at the wrong sizes or types. Could someone tell me if I am right? I am looking to swap out my Realpuki soso's stock eyes which are black with colored ones, but cannot see if I should buy 6 or 8 mm. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
       
    2. [​IMG] I just got my first Realpuki, Toki, and I got him 6mm Oscar Eyes from Fabric Friends & Dolls. He came with dark brown acrylic eyes that were of good quality, but I thought they were too dark. I think the 6 mm size is perfect, but I do think you could use 8 mm too, and I love the way the brighter blue lights up his tiny face...here's a (rather dreadful) cell phone pic of him, hope that helps! :)
       
    3. I use 6mm in all my Realpukis.
       
    4. thank you both for the size verification on this, and especially for the pics MorningsInAikmaar ! I had been thinking of getting a clear blue for my soso as the dark brown or black that were her stock eyes are just too dark for photos.
