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.

    2. I'm definitely getting him~ :D I really like his intense look, and his nose is pretty too. The only thing I'm trying to figure out is whether they start the doll right after your payment is confirmed or if they wait until the ordering period ends to start them all together? <---(Never ordered from Unidoll before. LOL. ^^;; )

    3. I just love how realistic he looks. He reminds me of some movie actor, but I just can't put my finger on it. I almost don't like how thin his neck looks with his head, though. His lips and expression have me sold, though.

    4. I think perhaps they start making the dolls as they're ordered. I ordered my Dalia 4 weeks ago on a 5 week layaway and just got an email today saying that she is finished and ready to ship when I make my last payment!

    5. .

      He's incredibly handsome! His name couldn't be more perfect (i'm from Rio de Janeiro, Brasil). This body.. I really loved his serious expression.. And the mouth, wow.. But I'm still preferring Feanor 8)

    6. To me he looks like a mix of the other guys. I can't decide if its Jace and Feanor, or Jace and Ark he looks the most like or all three. XD I think he's wonderful, I'm looking forward to the owner photos.

    7. If they released the head separately I would be in soo much trouble....but in no way can I afford him as a whole doll in a month...:( (not to mention that I would get him a 70cm body anyway, the unidoll body is not really my thing...)

      Aww, my brother was so sweet, he offered his paycheck to help me out. I would never take it, but the gesture really warmed my heart :)

    8. He's a manly man! :D Very nice-with that outfit I'd be tempted to make him into Ryohei from Hitman Reborn! Too bad he's limited though T.T

    9. His sculpt is really attractive! I find his head a little rugged for the regular unidoll male neck though. I'd like to see some more thickness there.

    10. He does to me, too. I think he looks most like a mix of Ark and Jace. Actually, he reminds me of someone, I just can't figure out who. Really gorgeous boy, I just don't have that kind of money for another doll right now. I'd get him if I could, though.
       
      #10 Hominivorax, May 21, 2008
    11. Exactly my thought, frogwitch, so it makes me wonder what body would look right?
      Edit: Looking around, Soom Super Gem seems to look nice proportionally, but the resin color makes me think white skin could possibly work? Hm...

    13. I am so in love with this guy it's not funny :love: He's PERFECT for my Eomer!!!

      Can't get him this time round though....will have to wait! :...(
       
      #13 chizzie_shark, May 21, 2008
    14. Well, I'm not getting him now but as the Unidoll people answered my question about him and said they'll probably sell him again later, I'll just have to save a lot of money. He'd be SO perfect as Nick, Luken's "nemesis"!

      Darn. Only started that BJD-"thing" earlier this year and already I'm addicted ... *lol*

    15. He's an interesting sculpt and I like the concept. He just looks a little too like Iplehouse's Barron. The face looks like a modified head; more chisled, but the eyes are dead on along witht he furrowed brow.

      Nevertheless, he's an interesting boy.

    16. I'd love to buy Rio (and Arc^^) right now but I'm afraid that it has to wait... no money- and no charcter idea for Rio yet.
       
      #16 Frostwyrm, May 22, 2008
    17. DevotionDemoness, while the basic style of the heads are similar, the sculpting is vastly different; far from modified, in my opinion.

      Rio's nose is more defined, square; his eyes are smaller, and he looks much more realistic and rugged. Barron is very much in the Iplehouse style, in the BJD aesthetic, very smooth.

      And agh, I am just so in love with how alive Rio looks!
       
      #17 Quilibet, May 26, 2008
    18. Gah I know! He's just so....animated and energetic! Oh, I need this boy...I really do....money, please fall from the sky. Please?
       
      #18 chizzie_shark, May 26, 2008
    19. I like a lot Rio's expressive face and the body (hum!) :love

      Only a little thing... The head loks a little too big for the size of the body but perhaps it is a problem pics perspective?
       
      #19 Llysewein, May 26, 2008
    20. I was able to scrape up enough to order Rio Friday. XD I hope he comes out as nice as he looks in Unidoll's pics. ^.^ I'm a little worried about the head size too, but it seems most of the Uni-real boys are like that though. It says his head is 8-9", so at least he won't be as much of a bobble-head as my CP boys are. LOL.
