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.

    3. I'm getting a strong Iplehouse addiction... surely ^^
       
    4. Price of the doll doesn't matter as long as you love it! My first doll is from 5StarDoll, and he was cheap [even though I got him as a 2nd hand gift]. But once I got my new doll from Angell-Studio, I realized that there is more detail and quality between the two. My AS doll is better jointed, better sculpted, and the resin is a lot better than my 5SD. But I love them both the same. :3

      My favorite company has to be Angell-Studio, though. They have so many dolls [and clothes] that I want, and I love the quality in their work. Dream of Doll is second, just because I love their sculpts too even though I only have 1 set of dolls I want from them. But I love their quality too [and their face ups] but I don't plan on owning more than the Tender Twins from them. But AS is #1!
       
    5. Big yes for Soom , I really love their doll 'cause I love the fairy tales and their fantasy part is super awesome :DBut now I believe that they're having some problem with the customer service, so down :(
       
    6. There are so many different reasons to call a company a "favorite"--sculpts, be it variety or type, the different qualities of resin--heaviness, texture, colors. Or perhaps it is the customer service that makes a company a favorite. Do they do fan events? Are they quick to respond to concerns?

      If going by sheer number from a single company in my collection, Volks is far and away my favorite company. There dolls are more pricey than some, and there's not the sheer variety of size and type that some companies have, but for me there is something very special about them, and all of my dealings with the Volks staff have been positive.

      My other favorites are SOOM, Unoa, Dollshe, and Batchix. If I could own a dozen dolls from each of those companies, then I would be very pleased!
       
    7. Fairyland is my favorite so far, I really like many of their sculpts/models. But after being in this hobby for a whilenow, I cannot resist looking for more bjds :P The next goals are Unoa and Volks~:XD:
       
    8. I don't have a favorite really. There are so many lovely dolls from so many great companies!
       
    9. Doll Leaves is my favourite all round. I love my Doll Leaves boy to bits and their customer service was so friendly and helpful and their delivery was so fast that I'm now totally spoiled for ordering from anywhere else! :) The other companies I've bought from have been quite a frustrating experience by comparison.

      My favourite sculpts are IoS. Out of various heads I've bought, IoS is the only one I've instantly loved as much as I thought I would.
       
    10. I love Doll Chateau's body sculpts, and I have to agree with OP on Resinsoul. I love their sculpts, I just wish they had more options :)
       
    11. Not originally: Soom, IOS and Doll Chateau. They all not-so-human as I see their dolls.
       
    12. Iplehouse is my first and favorite. Soom, Luts, and Ringdoll are all tied for second.
       
    13. i am a big fan of the iplehouse, just adore them :aheartbea I also like Soom, and Angell-studio :)
       
    14. I live for Volks!!!
       
    15. Dream of Doll currently owns my soul. Their sculpts are so breathtaking and beautiful, I can't even look at the site before I'm daydreaming about one XD
       
    16. Volks is my favorite. :aheartbea
       
    17. Doll Chateau - there is something so enticing and beautiful, yet unsettling about their sculpts and I love that weird feeling it gives me. It inspires so many characters and stories for me.
      I also really love Batchix because I love all things mecha! I wish there were more robot/android/mecha bjds out there.
       
    18. Ok so this is a reference for people who need suggestions for new sculpts. Or just want to look up dolls and oogle at their beauty (I am guilty of this).
