Apparently Doll's Castle had an accident with some of their toy molds. The item I ordered wasn't in stock, and they couldn't make more due to the loss of that toy's mold.

Also, because I'm an impatient fool with more money than sense, I've ordered a custom doll from Elsa Babe. They took payment on the 27th. I'm now waiting on their team to figure out how to make the colors I requested.

This will be my 14th doll or torso. I'm hoping this one will eliminate my desire for a 15th for a long time.
Hehehe Gaijin, no it won't :D

Just remember that the main role of doll #14 is to make it clearer to you what you need (want…) in doll #15. And in that, it will do its job…

True. The trick is to actually learn and remember what didn't work about the previous doll.

Finally got my factory photos. Wish I knew about the holiday in February, because I was not expecting it to take over a month. Now for the watching-the-tracking anxiety.

Nice! What manufacturer?
I’ve been advised my vendor have received my factory photos, so any day soon I should be in the same boat as you.

Just remember that there are probably TWO carriers involved in the process. One that would take the doll from China through customs in the destination country, and then the carrier from which you will get tracking information. So, from the moment they ship from China and until it clears customers in your country, all you will see is “waiting for package” or something like that, there is no visibility to the first carrier.

I ordered a GameLady doll. First time ordering a doll of any kind, and the wait has been making me anxious for the past month.

I've got another gal coming to stay, a 162 cm Sino silicone E-cup Linyin. Ordered mid-February (bad timing on my part). Waiting on factory pics for approval. The anxiety is less, and gets better, but I still feel it. Good luck to all!

Just got the tracking number, and they are sending it to a completely different state. Looks like they used the billing address instead of the shipping address. Anxiety just shot through the roof.

You probably have plenty of time before it reaches the carrier. In my experience, they use two carriers. You get the tracking info for the second one, and it will show “waiting for package” for a long time, until it clears customs. Reach out to the vendor to fix the problem.

I got an update from Star on Sunday saying the first mold is finished for my custom doll :)

They're going on to the 2nd one right now.

That’s a very granular update? I thought factory photos were the only update after order.

Reached out to the vendor immediately. Plenty of time, but that still doesn't help the anxiety. The billing address is my mom's place, which I haven't switched yet because I'm constantly changing apartments while going to college. I'm unreasonably paranoid the issue won't get fixed in time and I'll have to have an uncomfortable conversation with my mom about a certain package that shows up...

Yeah I had no idea that they did 2 molds so I was excited to get an update.
I guess I spoke too soon lol
