Haru Casting Mini Dolls

Jan 3, 2018

    1. June/July would be great for me too. I could use my tax return if I file it early enough in July.

    2. That explains it! I forget to view stories. Thank you! :sweat
       
    3. If you look at his Instagram post of Somastang in the yellow hat (about 6 down), he says her preorder is coming in May. Lol, if that stays the same, we'll see.

      I just got my E-Minor and Maji back with their face ups. I love the job Red Iris did on them! They both still need some work, but here is a quick shot of my E-Minor. The eyes I got for her have too big of an iris, so I'm on the hunt again. (These are a Mako 12mm.) I never could find a wig that is quite what I wanted, so I'm butchering a Leeke wig that never quite worked for any of my girls. :)

    4. She is gorgeous! I would love to order this month, but funds won't allow it.
      How long do pre-orders stay open?
       
    5. Oh Their doll is so gorgeous, I really want one!
       
    6. Does Haru just do one doll preorder at a time. Somsatang is gorgeous but I really want Maji! :)
       
    7. In the past, he has done most of his dolls each time.

    8. Thank you, I'll have to see if I can afford her, if not I'll have to wait for the next one!
       
    9. Your Eminor is gorgeous, Bluepita. I hope you'll post your Maji soon, too.
       
    10. Hey everyone! Last night I did some quick hot glue mods to my Maji body to see if it’d help with her atrocious torso flop-age and it did! Figured I’d share a link to my IG post about the fix here for anyone wanting to make their Harucasting girls behave better. c:

      Alisha on Instagram: “no more torso flopping!! big thank you to @witcheydollblessings for helping me realize i could use the same hot glue trick i used on my…”

      I pretty much just put big globs of hot glue inside her belly piece (at both ends) to limit the space for the strings to move around. If you’re not as impatient as me, you could easily do this same thing with apoxie/epoxy. She still clicks backwards a little when when I’m handling her, but that’s much better than her bending in half and completely destroying any progress I made on adjusting her hair and/or clothes. :lol:

      I’m also planning to thread wire through her legs this weekend so her knees won’t drive me crazy anymore.

    11. I’m curious about this too? :3nodding:
       
    12. I just discovered Harucasting’s E-Minor, and I’m in love! Does Haru do open editions, or are they limited? I saw that I just missed his order for her, and I’m so sad! Will he do more castings of E-Minor in the future?
       
    13. [​IMG]
      My Maji is a little harder to pose than expected but I still absolutely love her! Think I might need to try the hot glue trick.

    14. Haru has indicated that he will be opening up pre-orders this month.
       
    15. That’s great! I’m so excited! Thank you for letting me know, svc16.
       
    16. I'm really in love with these girls. I have an Adori by HC as well, and I am really impressed with his work. Both of my girls are pretty tightly strung and may need a little fiddling. I've got a couple of things left I want to do for my Maji, and then I can grab some pics of her. Honestly, I like Haru's dolls so much, I've considered getting rid of some of the others I have.
       
    17. Has he fixed the body issues? I know some people had issues with the posing.
       
    18. It looks like the preorder is opening in the next day or so and will be open for a month! (Info from Instagram).

      Now I need to decide what to do as a couple of my wish list dolls are opening for preorder at the same time :ablink: I would love to add an eminor to my crew though.
       
    19. Preorder for Haru dolls is open now. :) I already sent my email for E-minor.
       
    20. I’m buying an eminor but idk what skin tone. I wish he had a picture of them together. I’m leaning toward maji basic but want to see normal :(
       
    21. @Smol_Chim Check this link It is a photo of the resin colours from Harucasting - this is how I made my decision.
      I haven't been able to order yet as I don't have money until next fortnight, but I am just so happy that the preorder is open for a month :D

      Do you pay immediately? I mean...if I sent an email for an order, would Haru accept the first payment in two weeks when I get paid? Or should I just wait and email the day I get paid? I'm anxious that he might close the preorder early if he gets lots of orders.

    22. I thought you could only order the colours listed on the doll pages?
       
    23. Thank you thank you thank you!! Just placed my order!
       
    24. As far as I know, you're right. This was just the best pic I could find of the colours available. They just happen to be mixed in with the others he can cast for other customers
       
    25. Oh okay, I was thinking how interesting it'd be to see some of them in green resin! Haha! Thank you for that link though, it is helpful. :)
       
    26. There is a pretty good chance if you ask, you can order in most of the natural colors. Unless he has tightened up his policies, but he used to be pretty nice about it. But, the more colors you look at, the harder it is to decide! (Can't hurt to ask.)
       
    27. I'm sorry for the silly question but how are you all contacting him to order? I don't see any info on the Weebly page and so far I've only been able to talk to him on Insta and there wasn't really any attempt to take my order even when I asked about layaway.

    28. AdanneO posted what I was going to post. :)
       
    29. Thank you!
       
    30. I emailed some questions, hope it doesn't get lost in the many pre-order emails! Just wanted some confirmation on things before I order. :)
       
    31. I'm waiting for the shipping and invoice (?), this will be my first Haru doll, so I don't know. I think you could ask him if it's ok you pay when you get paid. :) I would wait for the payday, but everybody does how they feel is ok for them. Sorry I don't know for sure as I'm paying everything at once when I get the information for the payment. ^^;
       
    32. I’ve been looking for samples of the skin tones too. The ones I’ve found don’t seem to match the names that are listed in the E-Minor price list.
       
    33. pretty resin colour adoris


      Same! I've just been making approximations based on the pics I could find of the resin colours.
       
      • x 1
    34. There are also some pictures on his Instagram of the different resin colours. They’re the pictures of dolls legs with colourful shoes on. I thought the pictures were showing the shoes, but when I looked more closely, he has also listed the resin colour of each leg.
       
    35. I sent Haru an email to pre-order E-Minor on Friday :aeyepop: does anyone know if he responds to the emails when the pre order closes or just in a few days once he gets through them all? I’m a bit anxious my email got lost or something XD
       
    36. I was wondering the same thing, Daemon Fae. I figured out a resin color and sent in my order email, but haven’t heard back. I’ve also been checking to see if he has sent an invoice to my PayPal account yet, but nothing there either.
      Does anyone know how long he takes to respond? I don’t want to miss out!
       
      • x 1
    37. @DaemonFae & @coinnle - It took three days for Haru to email me back when I ordered Maji last September. He’ll get back to you soon :)

      Also, I found that a lot of Maji and E-Minor owners on Instagram will list their doll’s resin in a hashtag. So if you search for say, #majimildtan, you’ll see several images of dolls in that particular resin color. It’s a little more work, but since Haru doesn’t have a comprehensive image of every color he offers, it’s at least one way to get an idea of what you want.

    38. Thanks for the reassurance :blush that’s good to know!

    39. @DaemonFae and @coinnle I haven't gotten my response back yet either! However, I know Haru is really worried about recasters since he found out some time ago that a Russian recaster was trying to purchase one of his dolls. I think it will probably take a bit of extra time for him to sort through the emails and validate the information everyone gave. :)

      Congrats on your orders! Who did you guys get? I picked up a Maji in mild tan! I love all the color choices available, but I think that one is so pretty. I've slowly fallen in love with Maji over the past few years. Haru puts so much love into his sculpts! :D

    40. That makes sense, RainbowsHaven.
      I Ordered E-Minor in the Normal Peach. I had a hard time deciding what skin color I wanted, but decided to go with the light color skin. She has been my holy grail doll

    41. @RainbowsHaven I ordered E-minor in milky tan, I really love her sculpt :) Maji is adorable too! Congrats on ordering her

    42. Both Maji and E-Minor are so cute! :love

    43. With the faceup option, do we go to the artist he linked to and then find a photo of one of their faceups and add it to the order?
       
    44. I ordered Maji in either dark tan or nanni choco, but I'm waiting for him to answer a question about a faceup I saw.
      Next preorder I have to get a Joa.

      Edit: I meant dark tan not medium tan.

    45. I ordered E-minor in mild tan. Still waiting for his email. :) I'm sure it takes time to answer, he must've had a bunch of orders straight away.
       
    46. I think I'm going for normal peach too. Still tossing up between milky tan and normal peach. She's my grail too...and I just realised the faceup I chose was the one in all her promo pics. Gonna try and choose something slightly different. I would love to get Maji and Joa in the future. And Nanni. And Geuru. And Som...
       
    47. I want Maji in Medium or Dark tan, I can't decide! Still waiting on a reply to my questions before I send the form in.

    48. I am waiting for JOA to be available for order, hopefully by the second preorder of the year. As I don't have an instagram account, would I still be able to order for Haru? I try to stay away from social media...
       
    49. I'm holding out for the boy that looks a bit like teenage Adori. I'm thinking he'll be 2 preorders from now, but that is a complete guess. Haven't seen him in a long time.

      Congrats to everyone who is doing a preorder this go round!

    50. Gosh, I'm so impatient... I've been trying to 'entertain' myself my picking faceup artists for my other two girls, but I'm dying inside waiting for order confirmation from Haru! :lol:

      I think it would be okay! I would just let Haru know once you do the order that you don't have any social media. I'm sure he'll be able to see your activity from your Den of Angels account, though. :)

    51. I’m excited for everyone to get in on this preorder, and I hope to see lots of photos when everyone gets their dolls! :love
      I think the tan colors are so pretty. I debated a lot about going for a tan skin, but decided that for how I want my E-Minor to look, the Normal
      Peach was the better choice. Maybe I’ll get another one later in the Dark Tan or a chocolate.
      I’m going stir crazy waiting for my order confirmation :whee:

    52. I’m also going stir crazy XD but trying my best to be patient. I’m sure he has a lot of orders.
      I love all the color options he has available. Truly it was hard to choose. It’s really cool to see the dolls with all the different skin tones and looks :)

    53. I got my order confirmation and paid tonight! :celebrate I saw in their feed that they were going through emails too. Hopefully everyone else gets their confirmations soon too!
       
    54. Haru has hinted if not outright said that Joa and Neul are a couple... I really hope he lets people order them separately and not just as a package deal cause I can’t afford that much doll at once :XD: I so want them both though :eusa_pray
       
    55. No reply to my email yet, hopefully I'm just behind a lot of people!
       
    56. How often does he come out with a preorder during the year?
       
    57. I got a reply to my email last night :whee: now just waiting for confirmation he got my first layaway payment
       
      • x 1
    58. I got my payment request from Haru! I just sent my payment, and I’m so excited!
      Now the waiting begins…:dance

    59. I think he does 2-3 preorders per year! He said earlier this year that he might open a preorder for Joa in July, but I think it might be later than that since he told me he is hoping to get this preorder home around late July. I don't think he will start another until everything from this preorder is finished.

      I think we can expect at least one more preorder this year, if not two.
