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.

Ever feel you'd rather have a certain doll in a different size?

May 17, 2006

    1. I've never had the desire to have one of my dolls as a different size, but I can see where the attraction lies. Just look at Fairyland and Luts: fairyland has the puki sculpts in sizes all the way up to MNF now (or rather, MNF down to puki); and Luts has SD versions of certain MNFs, like Chiwoo, Shiwoo, El, and Lishe. People often talk about different Luts Delfs becoming MNF sculpts, since they're all CP.

      There's also those sculpts that look like another sculpt of a different size, like Delf Soony and MNF Ryeon, or Delf If and MNF Rheia (but maybe those are just me). Then of course there are Breakaways. Those run all the way up through the Feeple size, too.

      I remember liking Soony before I got my Ryeon, but I never had any intention to buy her. Maybe if there hadn't been a MNF Ryeon I would have eventually caved and gotten her anyway, because I loved her big eyes and pouty lips. Either way, I found a similar sculpt in the MNF Ryeon, and on the scale that was better for her character.
       
    2. I wish there were 60cm Unoas that ARENT super rare lol.
       
    3. Definitely yes! I much prefer the more mature male body molds of the 1/3 size dolls and would love to see them in the 45-50(ish) range - my doll size of preference. All too often the MSD molds are relegated to child or teen face and body molds when I'd rather see more adult looks and sculpts.
       
    4. Volks MSD F-21 looks a lot like Suiseiseki, so my wish is partially fulfilled that way (when I get one will be a who knows when, haha). I also wish that there would be an older version of Luts Bory since I would like to make an older version of her character as well (keeping both dolls).

      Not sure if there is a doll at all that I would want in all three sizes yet, but I like the idea!
       
    5. Oh, I'd love so much if Little Monica Yuria had a MSD version!...
       
    6. So far for me, size has been an afterthought when I pick out a doll that I would like. But yeah, sure.. I mean, who doesn't like variety? X3 I wonder how they would do it. Would the artist sculpt all 3, or would they scan the parts into a 3D program and "print" the new sizes?
      ...Are there even any companies that sculpt digitally, or is it all done oldschool? XD;; *curiosity dragging me off topic*
       
    7. Yes! I am trying to stick to MSD size and lower but that means I have to pass up an awful lot of absolutely gorgeous SD sized sculpts. Some of my favourite faces are in this size range. I keep wishing and hoping for some of those more mature faces to show up on an MSD sized body.
       
    8. The idea sounds great, but there's always a tradeoff. A MNF El is not exactly the same sculpt as an El, and the LTF El is even further "massaged". The Shiwoo is about the only sculpt that has a resemblence in all its sizes, but even there, the head proportions are altered in each size range.

      About the only company that had a fully mature mini was Orientdoll, but their boys were never that popular compared to the more stylized and partially "squished" MNF sculpts.

      I too wish Fairyland would come out with a 60cm range. Don't know why they haven't already, unless the rights to the Type3 body is still being held by Luts or something.
       
    9. I wish Fairyland would release a size comparable to Luts' Junior Delfs.

      That would make me a happy camper. :XD:
       
    10. I wish Soom, Souldoll and other makers of fantasy doll would make them in the mature msd size! They're so awesome, but I greatly dislike the 60cm size. I'll oggle other people's dolls that size, but it doesn't appeal to me enough to own them that big.

      As for mature 43cms see: Unoa, Fairyland & Iplehouse for mature bodies that don't look like teens.
       
    11. DollZone's mini girls are also pretty mature. The bodies are gorgeous sculpted. <3 Some of their face sculpts are definitely younger, but others (Shoyo in particular) could definitely be older.

      Anyway, I want a Littlefee PongPong. I will not rest until this happens.
       
    12. I would love it if Bobobie/Resinsoul made Mei and Sprite in SD size. They're both favorites of mine, but I'm afraid they'd be too small next to the others...
       
    13. I'd really die if Fairyland started to make 60 cm dolls.. like.. shushu.. <3
       
    14. I'd like an MSD of School Head A :D

      ... wait ... ;) Just kidding! I want an MSD version of F-16 though!
       
    15. SD sized Limhwa Limho Mono? Yes, please!

      That beautifully sculpted body was the reason why I got my first MSD sized doll, but I'd wish it was SD size.
       
    16. Yeah, it really irritates me. I don't often make characters for a fandom but there is a group that I'm thinking of dollifying and Souldoll Byeol is the perfect mold for one of them, but they have to be MSD and she's an SD :|
       
    17. I like Pipos tiny human dolls, but they're too small for me. If they were MSD size, I'd consider them.
       
    18. I'd love there to be a Resinsoul Mei in SD size; her face looks to me like it would suit that size rather than MSD.
       
    19. MSD Lati Belle <3
      Or Yo-SD... I just never realized how truly tiny... er... Tinies were until I saw a puki for myself in person @__@;

      Also a Delf Regan in MSD size <3

      I like MSDs.... :U But that's not to say I would like to see other versions of sculpts in SD sizes... just wish they were more affordable for my pocket u___u -will get an SD someddaayyy-
       
    20. Spirit Doll's 70cm Camphor- what's stopping me from being head over heels for that sculpt is the fact that he's 70cm- that is faaaar too HUGE for me- I don't ever want a doll that big! If he was just normal SD size I'd be all over that...
