Do you get obsessed when a new doll is coming?

More like stressed out until the doll shows up and then it is full panic mode afterwards. Once the doll tells me their name then everything is alright......and I can sleep at night.

 

Am getting obsessed when I know the doll will arrive when I am not home. ^^;; sometimes the delivery time can hit my one free day in the middle of the week, if it doesn't am kind of resteless because I also know that if I go home earlier from work that day the doll arrives, I might not being able to get him, because due to some parcel-delivery thing, you can't pick up a missed package the same day (this is new since this year, and I am not happy about it).
Buuuut... the last 2 times I got to the post office anyway and asked, if there might be a chance that my parcel would be at the office even though the slip says "pick-up tomorrow", I got lucky :3.
I hate to know the doll is near but I can't pick it up.

 

Most definitely. Especially when it arrives in my country after being shipped. I bug my parents and friends with talk of the doll and check the tracking for shipping obsessively. I just get so excited. >_>

 

Oh yes! Well..more so when it comes closer to the estimated finishing date and when it is being sent. Those few days it is being delivered nearly kill me!

 

Oh yeah. I got obsessed with my first two and my incoming third is really getting bad. I think my 3rd is worse because it's a Minimee so I'm celeb obsessed.

 

I usually form characters, then try to find molds for them but I'm doing it the other way around this time. I feel like I'm on a time clock! Which wigs are suitable? What clothing will fit their personality? This may be the last time I attempt "on the fly" boys, I can't handle being unprepared XD

 

My obsession with incoming dolls peaks and wanes as the months go by. I'm hit hard by the excitement of a new purchase for the first couple weeks and simply must find the perfect clothes, wigs and eyes so they'll all be ready for his arrival... and once all that money is spent and there is little left to do but wait, the adrenalin rush dies down a bit and I'm able to relax and move on with life in general.

And thank goodness for that, because otherwise I'd wear myself down to nothingness if I kept running on high for the months it takes for these dolls to get made!

The excitement kicks back in when I get a shipping notice, though. And until that boy is home, clothed and is sporting a face up that I'm satisfied with, I find that thoughts of him will continue to randomly surface in my head.... regardless of where or what I'm doing. ^^

 

yesyesYes! Absolutely, totally obsessed.
I'm constantly checking the doll's status everyday and I spend a good portion of my free time looking for clothes/wigs/shoes/eyes that will fit that doll.
Occasionally, I do 'take breaks', usually after finding one item for the incoming doll, but after a bit I snap back and do it all over again. n_n;

 

It's the thing about this hobby that I really have a love/hate relationship with. On one hand, when I'm excited about an incoming doll, I feel very happy thinking about them and what their character will be like and what they'll look like in their wig or how I'll do their face-up. On the other hand, it's annoying feeling the compulsion to obsessively check the mail/my email/tracking numbers/etc. I mean I get really obsessed. I drive myself crazy over it and have a hard time getting anything done until my new doll is home. Right now I have 2 on the way and I'm going completely out of my mind. But it's a happy out-of-my-mind, so I really can't complain too much.

 

I know I do. I get REALLY excited when I buy a doll and have to wait, eventually waiting paitently turns into me being impatient and getting really angry for it not being shipped out soon enough. but all I talk about til I get it is BJD's and I show everyone pictures of the new doll. xD

 

it depeeeeeeeends.
I think I was more excited to order my Migma than receive her (don't get me wrong, I was very excited to have her but I was really insane when I ordered her xD )
I was also insane while ordering Claude, but right now I keep forgetting about him since all my thoughts are directed on Dexter. I wasn't that excited to order him but in the last few weeks, I kept dreaming I received him and Iple released new pics of him and I'm loving him more and more and keep going back to check my order xD and pictures of him! I have a bunch on my phone :3
but I'm also really stressed that I won't like him when I see him in real life he's grumpy and very manly and looks twice my age and this is usually the complete opposite of my "doll type" (I like 'em young -15~20- and adorable )

 

Yes, pretty much so. ^^
Although I try not to think about it constantly. I often distract myself during the day but at night I have to think about it the whole time until I drift off to sleep. ^^

 

I'm definitely obsessive, also eyes every day, although I know that will never change in the order. Always reserve a few hours looking at clothes, shoes and wigs for her, even if not buying, just imagining how she would get the items.

 

Im obsessing right now lol looking up molds face up artists buying clothing the whole nine yards...and whats worse i entered dollpa so I don't even know if I'm getting her yet lol

 

I was super obsessed with Shiwoos a few years ago to the point where I drove my boyfriend at the time completely nuts talking about them! When I finally had one of my own on it's way I was counting the days!
1 day before he arrived felt like an eternity! I loved him a lot, he was the doll I obsessed over for months.
I still regret trading him. I like my EL and he'll be amazing when I have his wardrobe together....but I wish I hadn't let him go, despite the fact that his white resin drove me nuts. I miss him!

I sold a doll and now I have a Miyu on the way. I have been getting a little obsessed!
Every time I'm out I try to look for things she'll like! xD
But I'm trying to stay calm and not worry about her so much or she'll never get here!

i was looking at clothing online for my second doll yesterday, thing is i don't even have my first yet! but i have him planned out in my head and keep thinking when i can order him.

first thing first is getting my first doll. so yes obsessed.

 

Naturally. I'm currently obsessing over a doll I can't get until late this year/early next year.
I'm already looking for clothing for him, and aaall that good stuff, and I know I'll be beyond excited when I order him, and when he actually ships.

 

Indeed, I am long for my doll to come for over 3 months before I place an order.
And 3 month from the order.....my brain is obsessed by my doll for half a year XDD

 

I will stalk the forums and doll company site when I have a doll coming. It makes me crazy but I can't help it! ^_^

 

I pretty much go berserk and check the shipping status everyday, buy new things for the doll, and fantasize about the day it arrives. Fun yet frustrating times.
