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 prefer closed mouth or opened mouth?

Feb 25, 2018

    1. I love the open mouth molds. They have many potentials regarding facial expressions!
       
    2. I love opened mouth. I think it's more natural.
       
    3. Closed mouth or slightly open.
      I must admit I haven’t seen a doll with teeth that doesn’t creeped me out.
       
    4. depends on the sculpt, but i usually find myself attracted to closed mouth
       
    5. Usually I like closed mouths. I feel like that gives a lot more wiggle room to play with expression in photos. That being said, I do have a doll whose lips are slightly parted and have plans to get another one like that, so it definitely depends on the sculpt.
      (I am gonna jump on the bandwagon and say PongPong is ADORABLE :whee:)
      I have seen a couple sculpts that have open mouths that look like they're talking while in front of the camera (IOS A1 and Ringdoll Law come to mind). It looks pretty cool and natural--sometimes. But when I browse the doll page and see the open mouth in every single photo, I start thinking, 'Isn't he getting tired of holding his mouth open??' :XD: And if they were sitting on my shelf, that feeling would only intensify.
      Sometimes I wish I had a character that needed shelling that looked like Law, though...:love
       
    6. Open mouths are nice can make their lips look pouty.
       
    7. Open mouth with visible teeth is a definate favourite with me, but open mouth or closed mouth I like them smiley.

    8. For me it depends on the sculpt. I like both.
       
    9. I love a variety of doll sculpts so it doesn't truly matter if their mouths are open or closed to me, though I sorta do find dolls with teeth gaps to be cute.
       
    10. Slightly parted lips make a sculpt more dreamy looking so I am weak with those :) But then again, it really depends on the sculpt...
       
    11. Depends on the sculpt really, like Momonita and a few of the Supiadoll girls who have the open mouth are my favorites, but it just really depends.

    12. Closed ones. If the doll has open mouth ( and mine does) when you look at her for some time it seems like she has the running nose and difficulties to breath :)
       
    13. Open mouth for sure i love little teeth. They just look so cute on a doll.
       
    14. I prefer dolls with closed mouth or slightly opened.
       
    15. I prefer closed. But i recently fell in love with a Narae 406 head, she has removable teeth which sounds fun.
       
    16. I'd have to say closed mouths.. Seen way too many open mouth ones designed with ill intention. Can't look at em normally anymore.
       
    17. I honestly prefer closed mouth, but if the sculpt is super cute and has a partial mouth opening it won't turn me off from buying it. When it comes to teeth, I'm personally not a fan!
       
    18. personally i like them slightly open as i loove alot of the switch dolls like soseo ryun and dojin <3
       
    19. I like both. Depends on the sculpt.
