Did Domuya/Domuya ONE close down?

[Neko Sandy]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but since both of the boys I have from Domuya/Domuya ONE are 60cms this seemed the best fit. Since I've been having money problems, I haven't been able to do any dollie shopping, but I do still browse occasionally and Domuya is one of the stores I usually hit up since I am a fan of their flexi-bodies. This time when I did my look up though, I find their home site (domuya.net) KOed and no new news on any sites about them since maybe Christmas time of last year. There was a clearance going on at one point, but no mention of closing the company so I am left wondering if those wonderful flexi-bodies are now no longer in production.

Anyone got any information to share? Is my poor Kira now an orphan?

I did a search for you on DoA but nothing came up...

[Linteia]

All I could find was this thread that said they went out of business suddenly.

It's pretty old so I don't know how accurate it is, but sounds like they just stopped. Pity, they're very pretty.

Yeah I head they shut down as well. it's a shame.

[Neko Sandy]

That is a shame! Thanks for that link Linteia since my brief run through DoA's archives didn't find that and it seems to be as definite an answer to the question as we are going to get. Now I just have to cross my fingers that nothing ever happens to Kira cause I have no way of replacing him with them out of business. (I suppose it's a good thing that he is one of the dolls my husband absolutely refuses to let me sell....)

Both Domuya and Unidoll have closed down suddenly with no notice.

[Neko Sandy]

While I'm not that familiar with Unidoll, it's sad to hear more than one company has disappeared so suddenly! I wonder if was just sudden to us who are removed from them because we are in another country or if it really was just *snap* gone. In any event, I do not like seeing the dollie world of companies shrink so.

I really loved the flexi bodies that they produced. Back in 09 when they had a big sale, I almost bought one. I'm really sad that I didn't. ;(

That's sad. One of my friends has a Douyuma, it's an incredible sculpt. The posing is just great. Huh, maybe they were having financial difficulties or members of their team went to other jobs. Maybe they were arrested. I hope they're not languishing away in a Chinese prison somewhere.

I shall have to take even better care of Shirah! And I am sad too, I really like their dolls and outfits. I hope the people behind them are doing well and continuing to make dolls.
