Could you ever have just ONE BJD?

When I first started in this hobby I was dead set on two, I don't think I ever considered "just one." I thought I'd get a boy and a girl and be satisfied with that. Of course it's gone beyond that, and actually my first two were both boys, I broke that boy/girl idea hardly a month after I'd bought my first.

I'd go down to one if I absolutely had to. I can't see myself doing so unless it was a financial issue. In that case, I'd try to keep two, my Tan El and Tan Lishe. But as just one, I'd probably go with the Lishe. If it was a dream doll situation, I'd make that single doll a Tan Deneb. My reasons are just that I love my tan dolls, they'd be harder to get a hold of if I meant to buy them back later, but otherwise I just like the girls more.

 

From the very beginning, I knew I was going to have at least 2. That number has since increased. There was no way I was going to just have one. If I could only have just one of them? I'm not sure I could even choose just one of them. Perhaps my first doll, Volks SD13 Tony. He's been with me the longest and I still buy way too many clothes and stuff just for him.

 

No I could not. I'm waiting on a doll and I already know who I want to get next. Haha. Hopefully I can stop at 3. It's a good, prime number... Hopefully...

 

Having one was kind of my plan when I first started researching dolls as a hobby...or at least, having one RESIN doll. Unfortunately, instead of the lone wolf I planned on getting I ended up with Yoru as my first doll. ^_^; Yoru's main focus is on his family; I couldn't very well leave the family man by himself, could I?

Four dolls in-house and waiting on another child...it's just gone downhill from there. ^_^; Now my wishlist as longer than I could possibly ever hope to fill without winning the lottery or bagging a rich husband.

 

I planned on only buying one, but I have two full dolls at the moment and two more floating heads.. I'd like a few more dolls too. If only I had the money! =/

 

LOL NO! I don't know anyone that has only one. I don't know how people can do it! There are so mnay that call your name.

I thought I'd have one but I always wanted two girls. I now have four girls, one boy and I'm saving for another.

 

I'm in this hobby since Chritmas 2010... and have already two... (and a very long wishlist) heheeee! ;-)

 

I did exactly the same thing my dear xD I had every intention of only owning one doll
Just one that i would really love and dress up. Alas I do have one and have ordered my second haha

though the only reason i bought the one i have and the one i have just purchased was because
I completely fell in love with them! Its the only time i will purchase a doll, when I quite simply MUST
have them hehe :PP

 

I could, but I choose not to.

 

Definitely couldn't.. I've already decided to get one-one from each size (and 90% of them would be boys ) not to mention those beautiful anthros.....

 

Could I have survived with only one doll? Probably, and if the circumstance said I could only have one doll I'd be happy with my one doll. I love her to death, I really do. But I had the money for the second doll, he was one of my dream dolls, so I went for it. But let's say I only wanted her, then there is absolutely nothing wrong with only having one. I just know myself, personally, wants more than one doll. Actually, my goal is to have one in every size range.

 

I want only one but two...okay maybe three, but four.....five.....nah just jokin one should be good for me......should being the opportune word.

 

I like to photograph my dolls not just alone, but in pairs! Friends, sisters, etc....so i highly doubt i could ever have just ONE.
(like chips...you can never have just one chip from a bag :P)
plus i already have 2 i FOR SURE will never part with^_^

 

At first I wanted to buy just one BJD doll - to get sure if I even like them. But soon she needed a friend... and other friend... and sister... and so on. x) It's much more fun to photoshoot dolls together than single. I'm pretty sure I couldn't own just one doll.

 

I had one doll, by herself, about six months. Then immediately got my Obitsu. It was, however, eight years between them and this most recent purchase.

 

I wouldn't have said this when I started the hobby, but now: YES, I think I can just have one. Because four dolls(!!) was already too many for me -- and I burned out as a result and took a dollie hiatus for about half a year. Who knows, maybe it was too many, in too short time!

Now I'm happy to just have my two, but if I have to, I can adopt out Alérion and keep Syr. Even though it'll break my heart -- but I think I can do it.

 

As sad as it is, for Collection Black Luke (DOD) I would sell them all as I could buy them again (except for one rare boy). -_- But since that'll never happen, I only had one for2 months before I ordered my next two, I have no willpower! >,<

 

At this point, I'd say yes.
When I started the hobby a fw years back, I wanted many dolls. more and more nice new molds came available, and I wanted to buy them. Now after few years i'm thinking it's a good thing I didnt save for them and buy them, ok I still ended up with a few, but not as many as I wanted.
Simple reason for liking the idea of having just one doll is that then he is more special. Another thing is of course that they do take a lot of room. For the past 6 months all but one of my dolls have been in their boxes, because I havent got anywhere to put them. :-S

 

First dollie is being ordered tomorrow, but I know she won't be the only one. I was hoping I could keep it to just one because the things are so expensive, but nooooo.
Oh gee, wouldn't it be nice if she had a brother someday? Ooo, I can already see his personality taking shape... better go search for a doll to fit it.... Hmmm, and I think I need a puki at some point, much to cute to resist....
Sigh. I know myself too well - don't think I'd ever be able to have just one.

 

Before I thought I could answer this question with a yes...not anymore..I got my second one last two months ago and now I'm waiting for three along the way!
