At the first sight, I felt one thing about the doll, but after some time, I see them in a different way - I notice, that they have thing I don't like (for example big nose, etc.), or I am just bored with them. Of course, I like them, but not as much as when I would like to buy a doll.

... Surprisingly, it's been slightly frequent (weekly to monthly.) However, there's usually at least one doll that continues to be on my wishlist for a circumstantial amount of time.

What makes a doll go off your wishlist?
Owner pictures, as well as careful planning and considerable thought. At first, I've prevented myself from putting any other doll on my wishlist because I figured that I probably would never be able to get them. However, now it's just whether or not I'm sure that I'll continue to like the doll even after a while.

Have you ever saved up for a doll and then decided (before you bought it) that you didn't like it as much anymore? What was the reason for this?
Yeah... Kid Delf Pine ^^; Eventually, my tastes differed quite a lot from when I first had an interest in him. At first, I was solely concentrated on this certain character that I wanted in a BJD form, but now after looking back at the doll, I've realized that I just don't like the sculpt as much as I thought I did. (I've kind of strayed away from "anime"-like facial features to more realistic ones.)

Depends. Some of the dolls on my wishlist are sort of perma-fixed (I own AS Ty now, so for his character's twin brother I kinda have to get AS Rone) while others are more fluid.

What makes a doll go off your wishlist?
Finding another doll that better suits the character will definitely do it - I went thru 3 dolls for Renee before ordering DikaDoll Miao. Also, some of the dolls on my wish list aren't set in stone - they are ok but if one comes up as a limited (Ringdoll Kirin!) or on the DoA marketplace that will fit the character better (again, KIRIN) or just as well but I can get it NOW (marketplace dolls rather than preorders) then I will change.

Have you ever saved up for a doll and then decided (before you bought it) that you didn't like it as much anymore? What was the reason for this?
Yes it has - I had tentatively had a DragonDoll Cheng on my wishlist for a certain character, but (thankfully before I ordered) I saw some owner pics - I'd looked & found a few when I originally put him on my list but these new ones were from a different angle & made me realize I should look a bit more. Then Kirin appeared on the horizon....

I try to be very thorough in my research before ordering a doll - because I do NOT want to get one that I don't like or that won't work for my character! That would be such a hassle

On - usually I have a general idea per character for mine. Then I usually set on that model.
Off - It usually happens when the face of the character in my mind has changed, or the fact I have found a deeper vibe with a different model.

I never truly delete a doll that I've had on my mind. I created a list of all the dolls I have planned over time. I've even had characters be absorbed into other characters, so for me it really isn't just the doll.

What makes a doll go off your wishlist?
This generally is because I don't want to be overwhelmed by my little family. I have three now and I just don't want to have "too many." Another factor is that I just have lost interest in the particular doll, but using my list I have stuff saved for something new.

Have you ever saved up for a doll and then decided (before you bought it) that you didn't like it as much anymore? What was the reason for this?
Actually this hasn't happened to me. What has happened to me, however, was that I was actually saving for two dolls (MNF Chloe and LTF SDE) before I bought my SID Barahan. When I saw him, he was the spitting image of a character from one of my other stories, and from just looking at him, his own story branched off from the original.

Not too often, but I don't revise it often. The last revision I did, most dolls were removed from the list.

Almost; but then I decided that the second doll wasn't worth it.

 

-How often do dolls go on and off your wishlist?
-Every so often. It usually depends on whether I find a mold that fits a character best OR I decide to have my character created into a doll ^^; I typically don't just put a doll on my wishlist because of just how it looks, it has to feel/give off a sort of personality that feels like whatever character I roleplay.

typically when I find a better mold that suits the character or I decide to not make that character a doll.

hm,not really ^^; When I was saving up for my doll,I really had my heart set on a msd chiwoo. There are times though when I am editing my wishlist and I look at the dolls again and sometimes I fall out of love with it. But I've never had that sort of problem. I'm usually very certain of whatever I'm saving up for!

 

Dolls go off and on my list pretty often. I'd say I update my list once or twice a week (though sometimes I don't touch it for months), but after the first few months, it's usually the same dolls on rotation on and off my list.

So, by now that I've had a concrete list for over 2 years and have been in the hobby for more than 4, I've just kept all those dolls on the list permanently, though I have no intention of buying most of them right now. Occasionally a new doll may catch my interest, and I'll add it to the list, and most likely I'll take it off sometime, and I may put it back on again; I know it's a doll I'll want if I go through this a couple of times over a few months, and then it's likely that I'll keep it on there permanently.

Instead, there's 2 tiers to my list, one of dolls that I would like to buy within the next 2-3 years, and one that I might buy in the distant future, barring discontinuation or closing shops (which are always so sad to me).

-What makes a doll go off your wishlist?
A Lot Will Do With Cost and Knowing That I Might Never Get A Chance To Get It Or Finding One That I Like Even Better. Also If I See Owner Pics That May Make Me Change My Mind Because We Know That Dolls Can Differ Greatly From Their Promo Pics To Real Life.

-Have you ever saved up for a doll and then decided (before you bought it) that you didn't like it as much anymore? What was the reason for this? Once, I Almost Got The Doll Then Something Happened And I just Didn't Feel That Pull To It. So I Just Didn't Go For It.

What was the reason for this? Inapplicable.

-Have you ever saved up for a doll and then decided (before you bought it) that you didn't like it as much anymore? What was the reason for this?
Yes! I once start saving for a Fairyland SD. What made me decide against her was her size and her company. I love my Fairyland doll, but for the price I enjoy other dolls just as much!I still enjoy looking at owner pictures though!

 

I currently have a good size wishlist. Some of the dolls I actually hope to buy in the future, and some are more of an 'idea' of what I want to get. All of them are in a good url based list that I can just click and see without having to look them all up one by one.

Many reasons. Seeing photos of dolls from other owners and decided he or she won't fit my expectations (promotional photos on the doll site don't give enough perspective). Or I've found a better sculpt. If I can't find enough photos of the doll to get an idea of what his or her sculpt is like on different face-ups, I might drop her.

-Have you ever saved up for a doll and then decided (before you bought it) that you didn't like it as much anymore? What was the reason for this?

That hasn't happened to me yet (as I still don't have enough money to get my first doll) and I hope that it doesn't but if it does I'm sure there will be another doll that I will know for sure will please me.

 

I usually aim for certain dolls once I like them and hardly get it off my wishlist. But unfortunately I hardly bring in the dolls on my wishlist, which I have no idea why!
Everyday the list is growing, but it never gets off, so I am already worrying about by bank account.

 

Elfdoll SD Soah has gone on and off off my wishlist. I acually got one once but sold her. I kept adding her to my wishlist with the idea: ïf only she was MSD.

Now that there is a lovely doll Soah, big Soah will never return on my wishlist.

Sort of.
I was saving up for one, but was just completely captivated by a new doll that had come out from the same company. so when the day came that i had enough, i searched all over for owner photos and i figured whichever one i loved the most i'd order now, and order the other one later.
In the end i went with the one i had originally wanted, and was really disappointed by the drastic difference in company/owner photos and removed the second doll from my wishlist all together.

 

I've knocked 3 dolls off my 'list': Fairyland Roke and Chloe fullsets, because I finally found them to buy; and Dika's Chi, because I saw owner pics and disliked how he seems to look in person.
