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.

    4. I really like elf ears. Big or small ones. I think they look neat.

    5. I'd be happiest if all dolls could come with an elf ear option.

    6. Is this the only reliable way to get elf ears? It seems a bit strange that ears arent swappable, whereas eyes are.

    7. Ear shape doesn't matter to me as much as the overall sculpt appearance does--- however I'm not a big fan of ears that stick out a lot. But if I liked everything else about the sculpt, I wouldn't let that stop me from purchasing it when I'm able to. I don't think I'd be able to handle a doll with long elf ears without getting nervous about accidentally breaking off an ear;;;

      As far as I'm aware, yes. I don't find it strange, ears are the choice of the sculptor and their vision. I'm pretty sure there are a few companies that have dolls where you can swap out the ear parts somewhere... Unfortunately I can't think of any off the top of my head. Unoas have optional elf ear parts, but I'm not entirely sure how they attach:sweat
      But if you are worried about modding your doll, you could always commission someone to make ears? Or you could make a pair that will slip over your dolls current ears so you could swap between elf and human ears? :D The endless possibilities make this hobby fun~

    8. My personal preference in general, is larger ears. Hence why I love elf ears but I don't like if it just has length and no width. Even for human ears I prefer them to be noticeable, I think it looks so endearing to see the tip of the ears or something poking out from under the hair :whee:

      However ears is also one of those things that isn't always a seller for me, if I happen to prefer a face that is dressed with human ears I'd still buy it over a doll I desire less, with elf ears.

    9. Elf ears, most of my OCs are elves~~ Not to sat I dont have human OCs! But when it comes to shelling them, elves out number humans.... Currently I have 7 elf dolls and 3 humans ^^''

    10. I prefer dolls with realistic human ears. I have no dolls with crazy fan-shaped elf ears, so modding a slight pointed ear with epoxy clay (Milliput) is easier than removing them (not all companies add the upper ear grove to their elf ears, so removing the point doesn't totally fix the problem).

    11. Love elf ears! I'm a sucker for all things fantasy so elfy ears were what originally drew me to these dolls. I don't mind shorter ears, but I find I really like the longer ears because they can be seen through wigs more easily.

    12. I love elf ears, but I've noticed that usually I don't like the face sculpts that have them. My first doll has yet to come in, but I'm already researching how I can mod it to make my own elf ears for her, so I can be free to buy whatever sculpt I like!

    13. Elf ears are the best. I always appreciate when those are around, no matter the shape or size.

    14. The face is most important. One of the dolls I have has magnetic ears so you can switch between regular or elf ears. Makes dealing with wigs and hair accessories a bit difficult but nice for a change up.

    15. I'll admit, I love elf ears. Most of my OCs are elves or have elf ears, and I do want to shell them at one point. I think they're super cute, but as others have said I do worry about them breaking off or chipping *_*
      (for some conventions and Meetups in other hobbies, I actually own a pair of large elf ears that I wear. Elf ears are so cool, in my mind.)

    16. I'm a huge fan of elf ears!! Most of bjds on my wishlist and my current ones have elf ears. You could say that the longer/weirder their ears are the more love I will have for that bjd XD

    17. Its hard to say because I feel I like both equally, its more of the face that's the big decider. I don't feel I could choose or not get the doll only because of how the ears are, if it has elf ears or not. However, I love me some elf ears. Realized my first doll, a Resinsoul Mei, as well as ones I want to get next, a Resinsoul Yi and maybe Long, all have elf ears xD I guess I'm just gonna have an elven forest one day! xD I think that's one of the things I thought after thinking of getting Yi. I loved his face and tallness, but seen the ears and thought "oh he has elf ears! Even more reason to get him, what an added plus! :D"

    18. I like human ears especially if they are more cartoony and stick out. I’m not a big fan of small ears. I know when I first found out about BJDs I’d always look at sculpts with elf ears.

    19. Ears aren't the most important thing to me when buying the doll unless it fits with the character I'm planning! I will admit though, I tend to lean more towards elf ears!
      For Noya they were a must for his character!

    20. It depends on the character I am shelling, normally I would go to human ears but elf ears are a huge aesthetic of mine.
