Clover Doll 1/4 Discussion

May 5, 2015

    1. I have looked around all over DoA and there is almost no mention of these dolls at all. Even checking tumblr and flickr I've only found a a couple of owner photos.

      Clover Doll is a company that does 1/6, 1/4 and 1/3 dolls, they have some really beautiful molds and their prices are just incredible. You can purchase their dolls through their dealer on Ebay (don't worry, it's an official dealer, they link to them on their website). They're currently having a 15% off sale until May 20th (that means you can get a blank 1/4 doll for 168$!)

      Does anyone actually own any of these dolls? I'm probably going to buy Grover (pictured above) sometime this month but I'd love to hear from some other owners about these dolls. I'm really curious about the quality of the dolls overall.

      Edit: made a flickr group for Clover Doll, come share your pics!

    2. I like Grover! A lot of their dolls are lovely, but they appear to be a newer company. That's probably why they are a bit hard to find. If you do get him, please post lots of pictures! I'm sure people will probably want to know what the company is like, since there isn't much information out there. I'd be tempted to get in on the sale if I had some spare change sitting around. Maybe next time.
       
    3. Oh don't worry, I definitely will c: (don't expect anything fancy though, my photography skills are awful) I only know of two people who have Clover dolls and I've spoken with both of them. They're both really happy with the quality of the dolls and they really like them! One of them did say Grover's face up wasn't quite as impressive in person, but you kinda expect the company photos to be ultra refined and looking as best they can be. I do wish I had more than two people's opinions on these guys, but beggars can't be choosers.

      They seem to have sales fairly regularly, so if you can wait a few weeks, there'll be another sale at some point!
       
    4. Thanks to you, I want a Booth! [emoji1] Unfortunately I just placed a order for a different doll recently, and will have to wait a while. (Or else my family will think I'm crazy [emoji28] )
      Please do post lots of pictures of him, I'm looking forward to seeing him!!!
       
    5. Glad to hear it! The dolls are really beautiful, it's a shame they aren't more popular! Their dolls are really beautiful and so cheap. Perfect for beginners to the hobby. I feel your pain there, I'm still waiting for a cheese mouse and I went ahead and ordered grover yesterday... I really shouldn't have but I couldn't resist. At this rate I feel like grover will get here before the cheese mouse does, lol.

      I will be sure to take some unboxing photos when he comes. I don't normally bother with stuff like that, but since Clover Doll is a relatively unknown company I'm sure some people will be curious to see what the dolls come with and what their boxes look like and junk. I actually ordered him with body blushing too (a service they don't advertise, but I asked and they said they would do it for an extra 35$), so it'll be cool for people to be able to see what their body blushing looks like too.
       
    6. Hahaha, maybe he will! I looked on the eBay site and it says production time is about 15 days, which is amazing. And awwww, cheese mice are sooo cute! =^_^=
      Ok, I'm looking forward to seeing him and his body blushing! Did you order a faceup as well? Do you know if they sell other items like wigs and stuff? Cuz I didn't see that on the site. [emoji4]
       
    7. They are adorable little mice, wish the little bugger would hurry up and ship already though ;p I'm getting so impatient, haha. I don't know how people who order from slow companies like Soom can cope with ridiculous waiting times. I'm guessing Clover Doll's fast production rate is down to the fact that they're still quite small and don't get as many orders as the larger companies. I ordered him with a faceup and body blushing, I can't paint for poop so I always get company face ups ;p Plus his face up was really wonderful, I love how colorful it is.

      As far as I'm aware, Clover Doll themselves don't sell anything but dolls, which is a shame because some of their outfits are really beautiful, would have been nice they sold them (or had the option to get "full set" dolls with the clothes)!
       
    8. Oh, true. Maybe Soom's slow because it's so popular and can afford to be as slow? But I know what you mean. The doll I just ordered comes from Asleep Eidolon, and since I ordered from MoC, isn't expected to get home until the latest - April...cri...
      That's why I'm sorta debating whether or not I'll order Booth before she comes in.

      I looked on eBay and saw that there was a fullest option? At least for Booth. Idk, maybe you had to asl like you did fpr he body blushing.
       
    9. Hi :)

      Does anyone own any of these dolls? I just found out about the company and I'm interested to see owner pics and reviews!

      I really like Booth and Echo :3nodding:
       
    10. I have a Grover, I ordered him in May. I was going to post a box opening here, but my photography is so bad I'm kind of ashamed to put it here, so I'll just put a link to the box opening/review I put on tumblr, lol. Be warned, there's some mild doll nudity.

      If you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer them ;p
       
    11. Thank you for sharing the box opening/review :) your pics aren't bad at all! Do you have more pics of him?

      How's his posing?
      What size clothes/shoes he wears?
      What size wig?
      How do you like the body overall?

      Thanks again!
       
    12. I have just ordered Elvis from the junky spot I will try and get some pictures of him up and I will be more then happy as well to answer any question about him!
       
    13. I owed an Elvis last year but sold him when I made the switch to SDs. I thought his posing was great and I really liked the overall look of him too. He fit slim msd boy clothes I believe. So whatever a resinsoul or minifee can fit. I also believe he had a 6-7 wig.

      The only problem I had was that the resin of the sculpt's eyelids was very very thin. I didn't notice at first so after the second face up I realized that with scubbing in the area that I did, it made a tiny pin prick size hole in the eyelid. You couldn't notice unless you held it up to the light but I think it could have used with some reinforcing with epoxy or something and would be fine. Again this was my experience and they might not all have this issue but I thought I would mention it.

      I think they are a bargain for the sale price especially so congrats to everyone getting one ^^
       
    14. Here and here are the only other pics I have of him. I have a terrible camera so I don't really like taking photos, but I can always take more if you want to see anything specific.

      His posing is fantastic, he holds any pose I've tried to put him in so far, he isn't kicky at all, he's really solid (he isn't sueded or anything either). He stands really well too. I'm still really new to this hobby, so I don't have a lot of clothes or shoes. His measurements for his feet are on the site, so I guess you'll just have to buy shoes from companies who have dolls with the same size feet. He is definitely a slim mini in clothes, he is even thinner than a dollzone body. He is absolutely swimming in regular sized MSD clothes because he has such a lithe body. He has a 7/8 wig at the moment, but I think he'd fit a loose 6/7 if there was no wig cap. Oh, and his eyes are 14mm, but I think he'd fit 12mm nicely too.

      I love the body. I think it's really pretty, and it poses beautifully. It looks very elegant. The resin seems fine, though I can't help feeling he's a bit more fragile than my other dolls. I don't know what it is about the resin, it just feels different to the other two dolls I've had (going by what sam_darko said, maybe it's not just me, maybe the resin is just thinner). And I know of someone who broke their dolls hand, so I try to be quite delicate when I'm handling him because I'm paranoid of breaking him. This is probably just me being really silly, I can't fix dolls or even restring them myself so I'm very apprehensive about anything breaking.

      The only complaint I have about these dolls is the minor fork hands. I think their hands don't look quite as detailed or realistic as some other hand sculpts I've seen, and both hands appear to be in the exact same pose, that kinda bothers me. Hands are a very expressive body part and it sucks to have hands that look so... dull. Aside from that, no complaints on the body.

    15. I just ordered a Grover from Junkyspot last night, so I'll make sure to post pics when he arrives!
       
    16. I ordered Elvis last night through an agent shop from taobao. Hope he will get home before Lunar New Year =D
       
    17. I own three Clover Dolls: Elvis, Grover, and Booth.
      If anyone wants to see pictures, I have plenty.
      Sorry they're a little big and fuzzy on the computer for some reason. This is Elvis:

    18. Can you take some pic about the wrist and ankle movements (flexion and extension)?
      What size of the eyes is he wearing?
       
    19. Absolutely. It will have to come tomorrow.
      He is wearing 12mm eyes.
       
    20. Here's my Grover, Lotus.

      If anyone still wants any particular photos, you can feel free to ask. One of the most frustrating things about waiting for my grover was the sheer lack of owner photos out there. I had no idea whether he'd suit the wig and eyes I had picked out for him so I just had to take a gamble.

    21. My Elvis arrived home last night. His name is Naoyuki, or "Nao" for short =D
      He's wearing 14mm acrylic eyes.
      I tried mimicking company's faceup as much as possible =))))))

    22. Congrats! You did a great job on that faceup, looks just like the company one! Those eyes are really lovely too.

      I'm so glad so many people have ordered dolls from this company, now maybe this thread will be a little more active ;p
       
    23. This is a random question but do clover dolls 1/4 bodies fit doll leaves heads? I have a very feminine DL boy and his current body is a little... Too grown so to speak .I just adore the hands on these babies!

      Plus @Quyen what brand are those eyes? So pretty!
       
    24. Clover doll's neck circumference is 6.3cm so i think they'll fit just fine.
      I got those eyes from Minamino shop on Taobao [link]
      You'll need an agent to buy stuffs from there if you don't know Chinese.
       
    25. Hey everyone! I've got a Sheila coming soon. As soon as I saw her I knew she would be the perfect friend for my DC Bella. She's in storage for who knows how long though so I won't be able to do any comparisons for awhile... but I'm excited!
       
    26. Hey guys, I just ordered a Elvis from their eBay seller and I'm pretty excited. :)
      I told the seller I wanted him in white skin, and he's going to be my new shell for my OC.
      I was having a hard time finding a boy sculpt I liked with a petite body without looking at DC or DZ. But this boy caught my attention. :D

      @Quyen I love his little teeth!

    27. Does anybody have Booth photos to share? I'm particularly interested to see how his face looks blank, although face-up is totally fine, too.

      I'm still smitten and am determined to snatch one... someday. :XD:
       
    28. I made a flickr group for Clover Doll like a year ago (and totally forgot about it orz), since so many people are getting dolls from this company now I figured I'd share.

      Clover-Doll

      I'd love it if more people could post their dolls there, it'd be a great reference of owner photos for people who are potentially interested in one of these dolls! Lord knows when I was looking for owner photos of Grover I had a really, really hard time finding any.
       
    29. I just purchased a Sheila second hand!! She's my first MSD and I'm very excited! There's not a lot of owner photos that I can find out there but if anyone has Sheila please spam me!
       
    30. Just popping in! I'm interested in eventually getting a Booth or Elvis...could anyone post photos of them (especially Booth) blank?

    31. I was thinking about getting a clover doll girl body (if they are sold separately) but it seems the website is defunct? :( It seems KOK dolls is a dealer for them, if the doa wiki page is any indication, but they only have some boys listed on their ebay store. Does anyone know if Clover Doll moved websites or something? It's too bad Junkyspot isn't a dealer anymore, that'd probably make this a lot easier ahaha ;__;
       
    32. They do sell bodies separately, just contact KOK doll Collection and tell them you want to buy a female body! I didn't realize the Junky Spot stopped selling Clover Dolls, I wonder why?
       
    33. Awwww...how much I want this cutie Elvis:drool:...(
       
    34. I recently bought a tan Elvis from Dolly Planet! It's totally crazy, he's my first tan doll but I got him for under $200! :D The Clover Doll body is really cute, it's sort of a shame that they seem so unpopular. It looks like, at the very least, the body could be a really good dollzone/doll chateau substitute!

      To the people who have had this body, how is the posing? It honestly looks really good but you never really know until you have they in your hands :sweat
       
    35. Congratulations! To me, they also look like DZ / DC and dolleaves. Show it to us faster !!! :)))
       
    36. My Clover Doll boy arrived today! He’s so lovely, I’m really impressed! Definitely a much cheaper dollzone/doll chateau substitute without sacrificing quality or aesthetic! I wish I’d found them sooner. Pardon the bad pictures, it was already getting dark when he arrived! :sweat

      First photo is with the eyes they sent, second is with eyes I made. With smaller irises he looks a lot more serious and almost a little sarcastic. I love his little teeth, can't wait to paint them!

      I DEFINITELY want to get another at some point, maybe Grover? He's super cute.

    37. Congratulations ! He’s very cute boy:D
      Such a beautiful tan at cloverdoll.
       
    38. @0bsequi0us Very nice! I can't wait to see more of this boy and how you paint his face! Grover is a great sculpt and I totally recommend him, not that I'm biased or anything, lol.
       
    39. is anyone aware that cloverdoll is apparently closing? i was trying to finally order a grover from dollyplanet/kokdoll and ended up getting refunded :(

      i asked them:
      “hello! i received the refund.
      that is really sad to hear. :(
      are they closed forever, or just going through a restructuring or something? :(

      and they told me:
      “They will close forever. ”

      :(
       
    40. Oh no, that's awful... Cloverdoll has become one of my favorite companies lately and I was also planning on getting Grover at some point. DX

      I can't say I'm extremely surprised, though... I haven't been following them for very long but I got the impression that they hadn't released a new sculpt or any announcements in quite a long time. :pout:
       
    41. That's awful news, their bodies were so good for hybrids and they had a lot of cute sculpts at really reasonable prices D:
