1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Do you ever name the dolls on your dolly wishlist?

May 31, 2013

    1. oooh you have an IH "I"? I'd love to see some owner pics (in one of the JID discussion threads of course). I have one on order now with an EID Luna(basic).
       
    2. I cant name a doll before I ill see it, so there are no names in my whish list
       
    3. I usually name the character for the doll after it's been on my wishlist for quite some time. If I have wanted it long enough that I already know where to fit it into my story so I might as well give it a name. Also I feel like naming the dolls on your wishlist helps it from your dolly plans changing all the time by thinking "Oh I found a doll that looks really cool I should buy it!" because it reminds you that you already have characters have priorities on your list to attend to first, it for me stops impulse buying.
       
    4. ahahahahah yeah, of course! ahahahah
      i don't have a doll yet, but i have already tons of names! ahahahah
      for the migidoll Jean, and for the zenith Alec...and then Aru...and Leizar...XD
      i want a big family! XD
       
    5. Yes... even though it makes me want them more x.x;

      Soom Surprised Lami ---> Boo
      Doll-Love Arefa ---> Sindri
      Dollzone Yume ---> Komori
       
    6. I always end up naming the dolls on my wishlist because I'll sit and stare at their pictures until a name pops into my head xD
       
    7. The next doll on my wishlist already has a name.
      When I find a sculpt I like, I like to create a personality for them before I buy them.
      So, my future dragon boy, an RS Pi, already has his name, personality, and history.
      His name is Silas, by the way.
      I am quite excited for him.
      I actually might be able to start his layaway soon.
       
    8. For the most part, yes, I usually always name the dolls in my wishlist because I know I'm going to buy them and dress into a character of mine. But right now? Only one of the four dolls I am lusting for has a name, and that's mostly because I didn't have a character in mind, I just really want the doll.

      Volks Dollfie Dream Yukino: Usagi [yes, I wanna make Sailor Moon, soooo unique right?]
      Iplehouse YID Freezia: ???
      Soom Mecha Angel: ??? [but I mean who cares?! It's a friggin 80cm doll!]
      Angel of Dream Piao: ??? [ and this one is 90cm! hell, I'll call him Sasquatch!]
       
    9. I try to keep only one doll on my wishlist at a time and I always give them a name before I get them. I don't have any on my wishlist right now though ^^".
       
    10. I do! The LTF Bisou I have patiently waiting in my Fairyland Wishlist is gonna be a baby Connor Temple <3 I've been waiting to be able to have him for about... 2/3 years
       
    11. Yes. I get dolls to be characters so I pick dolls that look like my original characters. If I find some other doll that looks more like them, that's cool. That's what's flexible. My list is more about what character I want to make into a doll, not what mold I want.
       
    12. Yes! I always have a name for my incoming dolls because if I am getting one it has a character/personality associated with them. My next incoming 1/6 boy as an example, his name will be Oakley and he is going to be an Oak leaf fairy. :)
       
    13. Disregard ...

    14. A lot of the dolls on my wish list have names. Most of my dolls are avatars of my characters, and I often choose dolls on that basis.
       
    15. Like a lot of people, I choose dolls based on my characters, so yes, they have names even before buying them. ^^
       
    16. Yes, almost always.
       
    17. I don't write stories or base my dolls on characters, but my wishlist dolls all have names - all 7 of them! My only problem is that when I started out with BJD a year ago, I didn't think I'd be getting more than a couple of dolls....:lol: Stupidly I made this 'rule' that all my doll's names must begin with the letter 'E' as my own name begins with E.....which was fine for a while - but now I'm running out of 'E' names :?
       
    18. I think of wich doll I'll buy based on my characters so, yes, they all have names before I buy them (and the sculpts may change in accord to their history if I take to long to buy them). Currently:

      ~ Supia Girl - Hael: Anwen I. Knethell
      ~ Migidoll - Noel: Michel Lamounier
      ~ Spirit Doll - Herculean Pine: Edward Morse

      There is a lot of other characters whose sculpt was not yet decided, so they are not on the list (:
       
    19. I base my dolls on characters, too. So, the only doll on my wishlist right now is a Crobidoll Lance who will be named Enjolras. :)
       
    20. Oh my gosh yes!! Haha I'm guilty of doing this. But not all of them have names. So far I've only named these:

      Bobobie Apollo -Ethen

      Bobobie Weylin- Link

      Resinsoul Feng - Joseph

      I have more but those are just a few I'm guilty of naming before I get them.
