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.

Falling in love with a doll and it's unavailability

Jul 9, 2014

    1. I love a lot of limited Soom sculpts, like Rico/Serin, Lig/Nodia, Lux/Volo, and Turb/Roxen. Someday I hope I'm lucky enough to add one (or two, or three...) to my collection.

      A few years ago I was able to buy one of the dolls I never thought I'd be able to find: Volks YoSD Kira (origin version). Had to be the origin version (it's complicated) and her previous owner was kind enough to offer his to me when he spotted my WTB thread.

    2. Oh man, this happens so much to me! Usually I look at owner pictures of the sculpt to ease the wants feelings. Even if I don't have the doll I can still enjoy it that way, plus I love seeing what kind of cool things people come up with!

    3. Soom! I love fantasy dolls, and Soom has a lovely variety. Unfortunately, they're so expense and the ordering window is so small, loving Soom is suffering :XD:

    4. I always have his problem! I tend to love limited release dolls, such as dollzone pets or doll chateau Adas. It makes life difficult. I really love soom dolls too(that tend to be hard to find), but I haven't brought myself to buy an sd sized doll yet.

    5. I love Enaibi's Carmalyne but her dolls are created purely for fun and are very limited. They are one of cutest things ever though.

    6. White Rabbit Yeon-Ho from Crobidoll :D What an absolute beauty. I've come across a lot of limiteds while searching around various BJD companies but none made me fall in love quite like that beautiful boy. Because he was a limited from several years ago though, and a two of a kind doll at that I believe, I doubt I'd ever be able to get him. :pout:

    8. Ughhh The Siamese Twins, Debbie and Caroline from Doll Chateau ;-; So amazing! They still sell the heads but not the body so I could get creative and mod a conjoined hip part for them. Ohh I just might do that... I will say, I'm having one hell of a time trying to find owner pics of those girls. It's like they didn't sell well so DC discontinued them? :c
      Oh, they also JUST discontinued Cyril. He was beautiful ;^;

    9. Chiwoo for me. I wasn't convinced I could spend that kind of money on a doll. He was my first BJD love. I'm actually working out a deal with someone dealing with an estate sale though.......So I may have him soon!

    11. Nabarro's Booth. I even practically begged Nabarro to do another pre-order. And I just missed her! The preorder was last spring but I wasn't active in BJDs until last summer. Big sigh. If I could get her I think all my doll buying would end for a very long time since I know I'd want to create all kinds of things for her.

    12. This happens to me all the time. I'm beginning to think I love them BECAUSE they're unavailable. It's the whole 'want what you can't have' mentality that I suffer from :sweat

    14. I had this happen at the end of last year. I fell in love with the Dimdoll Miso sculpt only to find she'd be discontinued earlier in the year. But lucky for me, the person who created the Miso sculpt has opened up his own company called Dollits and the Miso sculpt will soon be a be available again :aheartbea

    15. This seems to happen to me all the time. Not that I'm attracted to the unavailability. About 98% of the time I don't know till its too late.. Just my luck it seems. I went to a local doll meet a few days ago and fell in love with this girl's doll that she was holding. I asked and she said he was a fairyland Mir/ Mika (yeah, had a feeling). I thought, I have to check him out! I looked him up right away & sure enough, LE! :XD:
      Almost all my dolls are LE, save for two. Although one of those two used to be LE and then was released as a regular line doll. Bit upset about that still, because I bought Iplehouse Violet a few months before they permanently rereleased her... Bought her with a limited edition price when I could have got her for a little less. Still love her.

    16. Yes yes yes!! This is exactly what I've been through! I've fallen for Peakswood's Hucky - Christmas version which has been out for years. I've been trying to find if anyone would sell him as a second hand, but there is no clue after all T T!!!

    17. Ugh yes! Elfdoll's Rainy Yuan was such a beauty sculpt and the company was so great itself. But the company is no longer together and I can't seem to find ANY of these Second-Hand :(
       
      #137 MadMisery, Jul 23, 2015
    18. Mirka actually isn't a LE, only the fullset was, so you could certainly (and easily!) get your hands on that sculpt still!

      I feel incredibly lucky that I didn't miss the period before one of my wishlisted dolls was discontinued (managed to get him on layaway with four days to spare!)... my unavailable love right now is FairyLand's F60 line, and specifically an F60 Shiwoo. (I do have a Delf Shiwoo, but I want a new one as well. First world BJD problems!)

    19. I'd like a Minifee Nanuri 2014... I'm beating myself up for not getting her when I had the chance. -_-

    20. I'd love a Venitu in copper oriental above all...then Granado Mars in chocolate because I just cannot stretch my money that little extra bit this year. And Granado hasn't planned a re-release. A real pity because Mars' head is the only head I would be interested in purchasing.
