Did how many dolls you plan to have change?

I actually only wanted two when I got back into this hobby... then I had four dolls on order... canceled two, sold one, then had just one when I ordered another, sold the one that was here...

and now I'm waiting on three... haha! I'm gunna try to stick to either three or four... at least until I move and am comfortably in my own apartment next year.. if I could afford getting anymore dolls..

 

The thought at first was one. Just one, the sculpt I first fell for oh so hard, my very own muse. Now there's one floating head waiting on a body...oracle-to-be. Maybe one more? Who knows.

 

At first we wanted only two - a boy and a girl. But when we ordered a boy first and... a boy second it became clear that there are no such things as certain numbers in this hobby. I see it's the same with my doll-loving friends too.
I still don't know how many will be our personal limit... but we have 10 now and as many planned, and I don't feel it as a limit yet. though I know that it's up there somewhere. XD

 

Yes. Oh Hell yes did it change.

When I started I was dead set on having just the one. I thought if I bought one boy I'd be perfectly happy, it was the first time I'd bought somethign so expensive myself...then I discovered and joined DoA...

Then I discovered Pukis and got one from my parents for my 18th.

Then later discovered a woman who makes tinies here in the UK (Thank you Carrie!) and had to have one.

Then I saw an adorable puki for sale in marketplace with the perfect outfit and look for a story I wanted to do for art and the idea plagued me until I adopted him.

Then Carrie brought out a limited red resin elf tiny...instant love.

But Phinn was lonely as the only MSD size so he has a male friend on the way...

And I have my eye on (i.e. almost certainly going to order soon) an MSD size girl.

So I went from a dead-set one, to resigning myself to a maximum of 3 when I found out that one was never going to be enough, to saying definately 5 will do me. For sure. For a while...Then I just had to get another MSD and even after promising myself it would be a girl and that would be it, my yaoi-fangirlness said I wanted another boy and that took me to 6. But I don't like the number 6 and number 7 has been a lucky number in my family...so I'll hopefully be ordering that girl soon.

But there's still a possibility if I see a unique sculpt I like in the futue...I'd love a vampire one day and I want a doll sometime in teh future where I do the face up myself in a zombie/undead style...so yeah...I say 7, and 7 it will be for probably a few years yet (because of money restrictions), but if the right sculpts come along it will eventually be more.

 

Oh good lord, YES. Originally I planned on one (with room for another as a friend). Then I got to three and said 'that's it, enough!'....then came number five and I said 'just one more.'

*points at sig* Now I've come to the conclusion that planning is futile I just roll with the punches (or resin, in this case ) and bask in the little (and ever growing) resin family.

 

At first I wanted 9, and a sleeping doll head for one of my dolls, just so I could fulfill a storyline for one of my characters. Unfortunately, I made it a habit of looking around other doll sites, and now my wishlist is huge ^^;;; I'm sure with some time, I'll shorten it some..... or maybe not. XD

 

hmm yes would be my answer, I was originally just going to have one due to their cost and space buttttt I now have two, am waiting for my third, paying on Layaway a doll head on the marketplace for my Mum then I have to get a body for that and have at least 3 more planned for myself! I only got my first in April *laughs*

 

I think I'm in the minority, here. XD

I originally wanted 8-9 dolls, but now since I realized I won't have enough time for them for a few years my number shrank one by one to 3. But I felt so bad leaving Cambria as a 3rd wheel that I bought a 4th, which should arrive sometime next year. I honestly do not want any more, though.

It's a nice, manageable, even number. It gives me enough for character variety without punching a permanent hole in my wallet.

 

Well fist I just wanted one. A body for my character Zephyr. But I have just bought another. I thought if I got a second it would be a girl, but I fell in love with Sapphira's floppy ears and loved them every time I saw one. And then my mind created a character for him and I had to order one

 

i want a least 13 if not more

 

Well I'm not really planning on a number, but right now just one will make me happy(saving up)

But I'm sure eventually i would want a girl for him, then maybe a smaller doll(I want the small one to cosplay sumomo )

So right now I GUESS you could say I'm planning on having three ^-^

 

Well, I kinda just planned on one.
Buuuuuuuuuuut, I do plan to get two more....maybe three. But definitely two more. I'm saving up for DOD Lahoo and Camine. After that, not sure. I'm pretty stuck on the DODs.....maybe a SOOM doll (once again wishes she could have ordered Amber) if a limited comes up that I fall in love with. *hopes SOOM comes back with the hooved beauties in the future*

 

At first it was going to be three, two SD's and one MSD. I got my first doll and pretty much everything I had planned (personalities, story, etc) changed. Instead of SD older bother, MSD little sister, and SD love interest, the MSD has been completly removed from the plan. Now it is my Nigel and a plan for one more SD (Dark Skin Cocori hopefully) and that darn Pipos company has given me a Mango and there may be one or two more from them in the future. Perhaps a Puki, because those things are so evilly cute.

I'm sure my plans will change more in the future also. I constently have to re-evaluate things with them, though so far, I am deffinetly still in love with my boy, and I have had him for almost two years now. We'll see how things go.

 

When I got into this hobby. I was like: One, Im lucky to have that.
Then >.>...all a sudden...two...now Im almost on 3 and the way things are turning out now, almost 4. Its ..its...AWFUL D: lol, not really.

 

I was also one of those "only one!" people. I laasted with my single girl for almost a year, then I decided she needed a different body. Left with an extra body, I had the dilemma of going through the hassle of selling the body or.....of getting a new head for it! Then I saw a Romantic Dillui in the Marketplace and my dolly family grew to two.

Now I have four big girs and a tiny (who I kind of count as a half anyway)! A big change from just one. It's so much fun having lots of dolies to dress up and play with that I'm happy my initial plan changed.

 

I was soo not an "only one" person! I actually thought I would love MSDs most and had planned like 8 of them, but...after much buying and a little bit of selling...I've decided that larger tinies are my faves.

I am keeping my two MSDs cause I love them, but I don't really want any more. Even though I would love a Rheia or Miyu... Littlefees and pukifees are best. MSDs almost too big, pukis almost too small....go figure

But back to the numbers - I don't really want many more dolls past the 7 I have. Maybe one or two more...but I have found that even with 7 I have to play favorites a lot....

 

I've always known I would end up getting more than one, the only exception is that I kinda estimated high back then (like 11 or 12 ). I have 7 right now, and there's two more I hope to have someday so after they're here I believe I've reached my limit.

 

Nope, because I was never stupid enough to limit myself to a certain amount xD hehe
And right now I think I am utterly satisfied with 3/4 dolls at most :3

 

uh, yeah. i planned on having one.

big fail.

 

I bought one, figured I'd get a second, and then I'd be done. My third and fourth dolls are on order with a concept for a fifth having formed in my mind.

I really have no idea how many I'll have in the end.
