Hey guys, found this site while surfing the site. It seems cheap but I'm not sure what the doll's company is. If I knew the company I would probably check that one straight on.
http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product ... 80538.htmlSo just wanted to see if anyone knows this site. Any opinions is welcome
Cheers
Mochi

I think those are re-casts. No way an Iplehouse would sell for only $300 (it's another doll listed there). Absolutly impossible.
The site itself looks to be just a marketplace for different sellers - it's the sellers who do not seem to be legit with their products.

Hmm, that's why. I was thinking of a reason why it would be cheap. Thanks~

Yep, definitely recasts. They pretty much sell the exact same dolls as another recast shop.. For very low prices.

They are even selling limited SOOM dolls at around half their original price. Definitely re-casts.

Yeah. Definitely recasts. They're selling "Soom's Zinc" who actually doesn't look anything like him. Human torso way too dark, horse body way too light. Wrong color clothes and wig. But it's definitely his face. Those assholes.

They even have a link at the bottom of the page to "Report Intellectual Property Right Infringement". Laughable, as they are selling recasts from China.

I think we should all click that link and report them to themselves. And at the end of it ask if they understand what the word "irony" means.
It'd be good for a laugh, if nothing else.

Nice clean potatoes...
I imagine just reporting them to the copied companies would help, Iplehouse can go after them.
