I ordered Asher Awake from MacPherson Arts & Crafts Thursday of last week. They said on Friday they would ship the order Monday. Today I got a note saying they were out of Asher Awake and would I like to replace with a different kit… Which I don’t.
They said if someone doesn’t pay for theirs then I am on “the list” but I am upset still. Why didn’t they tell me when they emailed me last Friday they were out?
My daughter (7) and I were looking at her baby pictures and gonna make a doll of her (more or less). We were “working together” on the idea.

Did you try to call MacPherson’s and ask them? They are usually very helpful with things like this. 
I paid for a kit and they emailed me later and said it was sold. It makes me mad too! I am sorry you didn’t get your baby.

We were in email communication. I don’t see what the can do (other then refund) if they don’t have what I ordered
You never know…It’s better to ask than to never know
I have Asher asleep that I am willing to sell if you want it.
Thanks, but it’s the awake version I want. My favorite asleep baby is summer rain.
Anyway, I ordered one (Asher Awake) from eBay for 70 dollars (includes free shipping). If I got him new for 60 plus 8 shipping it would be almost 70 anyway… Course McPherson’s was 50 but I can’t change that.
If they end up able to get me one I’ll make two (one for me, one to sell) but if not I get my one to make with my daughter anyway.
(She is seven, but she is helping me pick out the eyes and hair color and things like that- it’s supposed d to be her as a baby. She had simmilar eyes and nose but much chubbier cheeks- and I adore the realborns. I have gotten (expensive!) Kits with blocky fingers or weird ears… Realborns are my favorite kits! Not just from the details, but also because I can trust nothing will look weird when I view them from the angle not shown in the stock photos… And the head and hands will be in proprotion etc)
