Do you include your floating heads in your doll count?

Jan 6, 2012

    1. I do, but I explain it as saying "I have 10 and quarter dolls. The quarter meaning that I have a head that still needs a body. Silly I know.
      Well wait...actually I have 2 heads that need bodies so now I have to calculate that figure.*_*
       
    2. Well, I count floating heads as "half-dolls", and, in the case of my Lusis, "one-third-dolls". I sum it up by referring to my resin family as consisting of one doll and one-third of a doll.
       
    3. I do...as long as I'm still trying to find a body for them.
       
    4. They count to me. They are the personality of the doll anyway. It's the easiest thing to obtain. And now that I'm doing face ups I can match the doll's blushing to any desired body blushing. I just consider them 'body challenged.' LMAO I love my heads. Plus, imagining them whole is a new way to "play."
       
    5. My floating heads have a name and each one of them is a different doll, so I guess I include them in my doll count. They make me very sad though, and I wish they had a body, but at the same time, I know it's unreasonable, and buying them a body would limit me from having more dolls.
       
    6. I do not unless they are intended to have a body someday. My only current floating head is just for face up practice and will never 'be' someone, so it doesn't get counted.
       
    7. I count the two I have. My SDF Howl is actually on a temporary plush body, so he's sort of like having a full doll anyway. XD And though my Obitsu Haruka may or may not ever actually get a body (still not sure if I'm into the thought of owning a full vinyl doll, but I love her face) I still consider her a part of my doll family.
       
    8. I do, but only if I know I'm keeping the head. I just say "X amount and a half." I know half of a doll isn't the head, but with prices it almost seems like it sometimes... ;)

      However, if I have a body ordered for the head I just count that as a full doll. So, I guess I have 5 dolls right now; the body is in the mail! (yay!) :lol:
       
    9. I do because I will make it a whole doll eventually but until then its just a half doll:)
       
    10. don't count my floating heads as I tend to share bodies with other heads. So count is only full doll.
       
    11. I... kinda count them. I mean, in my head I count them but if someone who knew what I was talking about asked I'd say 'I have X dolls and X floating heads'... but if someone who had no clue about the hobby asked I'd just count them as full dolls instead of having to explain why I just had the head of some dolls.
       
    12. I have 1 floating head and I count her as doll, she has faceup and a character (and I'm already getting her a body), even if I have a blank head I will count it as long as I don't intend to sell it later :)
       
    13. Nope Floating heads are easily forgotten.... no count....
       
    14. If by doll count you mean: "Yeah I got four dolls and a floating head." Then yes. Especially since soon he'll be a complete doll.
       
    15. I don't have a floating head yet but I don't think I'd include him in my doll count. Without a body and character, he's not a full doll. When talking to other doll people I'd probably say: X number of dolls and 1 floating head but to everyone else, it'd be just X number of dolls
       
    16. I count them, but as ".5" or "1/2" of a doll.
       
    17. Well, i say i have 5 Dolls and some floating heads ^^.
       
    18. I don't count my floating head, because while obtaining a body for it is on my list of things to do some day, at the moment it's a low priority. When I actually start saving up for its body I will start counting it as one of my dolls, but I feel it's a bit silly to count an eyeless wigless floating head that doesn't fit on any of my current dolls' bodies as a doll.
       
    19. Yes i do count my floating heads as a doll in the doll counts!I know they will be complete someday.And that their most important part is home already!
       
    20. Of course. Bodies I swap out a lot actually but the head is the doll. It's where the personality of the doll is. Floating Heads are dolly people too. They may be handicapped for a while by having no body, but absolutely I count them.
