I tried with Firefox and it just went to the pink screen of IT fail but Chrome is letting me play around with their awesomely bad doll maker thing. (Seriously, how have they not improved any in the last however many years?)
Lots of things are showing backordered or low-stock (I dunno if they're expecting a run on Sonali molds in everything or what but yeah) but I do like that it warns you so if you're not going to want to wait 600 years for something to come off backorder, you don't get too far into the creation with that specific mold/hairstyle/whatever.
Thus far the highlight of this seems to be that you can have two different eye colors if that's your bag. Also, I'm DYING at them claiming hazel is backordered. The eye color they put on every damn doll is backordered. Really. *wheezes and dies* But gray eyes are an option, too!
I'm going to edit this as I play around, I think.
Huh. Not sure if they fixed the hazel thing or if it just shows that way on the Sonali mold. *shrug* I like that you can save your creations (muahahaha, they're alive!) though I wonder if there's a limit to that. So far I've created a few and fallen in love with one. Dammit, self. She's also probably the easiest to make otherwise.
Now to decide which dolls to make while I play around. BSC? Alternate mold versions of AG characters? SVH? Decisions!

I might even take my Halloween money and throw it their way and that's saying something. Maybe enough people will pester them and they'll realize there is a market for the mold?
I wish the classic mold looked like it normally does in the dollmaker. Which molds are you considering?
