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.

Favorite company?

May 26, 2014

    1. Probably Dollzone! It's one of the few that I've consistently liked their dolls over the years, I love their style a lot.
       
    2. New fave company is puyoodoll...which is painful

    3. I really love Withdoll’s msd boys. Many of their sculpts are just my type and their bodies are so nice. I also love Dream Valley an equal amount, their fantasy dolls are beautiful and so unique.
       
    4. I don't think I could choose one favorite, because I like different companies for different types of dolls. I love Loongsoul's boys, head and body sculpts both. I'm really liking Souldoll's girls lately, especially their Soulkid New Girl body. And I love Fairyland head sculpts a lot. So lots of favorites. :XD:
       
    5. Volks was my intro to the hobby although it took several years to get my first one. Now, I have several. All but 1 are older sculpts bought here in the Marketplace. I just love them so I guess that makes Volks my favorite.
       
    6. It's Volks for me. I love their sculpts and the one-touch system makes changing outfits and hands so much easier!
      Dollmore are a close second. My first doll was a Dollmore girl. Their sculpts have some unique features and their customer service is excellent.
       
    7. I have a pretty strong bias towards old Luts and by extension Fairyland sculpts. Though right now my favorite is the Dika doll sculpt I just ordered. I never stick with one favorite for long.
       
    8. Dream valley, I pretty much only have one doll that’s not dream valley left. I love everything about them.
       
    9. I really love Guard Love dolls. They have a variety of skin tones and the posing is amazing. ^_^
       
    10. Definitely Volks for me.
       
    11. For a while now I have been buying from artists who have their own line and not companies.
      . In my early years I loved Dollzone, then Doll Chateau, then Dream Valley. This thread has been running for a long time and it is very interesting. But I have some absolute favorites from many other companies... And now I want to check out all the newer companies that I am unfamiliar with. I had been mostly away from DoA for a while so I got behind.

      :sweat
       
    12. I don't have any dolls from them yet, but I really like Pipos. Two dolls I really want are made by them and Pipos has a wide variety of dolls, even though almost ALL of them are sold out.

    13. Out of big companies I would have to name at least Doll Chateau and Dollzone. I don't have any spesific favourite companies these days, but there are so many bigger companies and smaller creators out there that I adore. I however love DC's bodies and they have always been my favourites, so this company will always have a special place in my heart. Peakswoods has also always been one of my favourites even though I sadly do not own any of their dolls. The fantasy skintones and unique makeup style please me.
       
    14. Hello everyone, tell us about your favorite doll company and why do you love them so much?

      My favorite company is dollshe craft. Yes, I know about the whole situation and I feel extremely bad about it. I don't justify dollshe, but all the dolls I love from him, my bjd story began with them and I still keep them in my heart. So after learning about the situation in the company and how dollshe acted and continues to act, my heart broke

      Tell me about yourself :whee:thank you
       
    15. Dream Valley. I like the anthro/fantasy dolls they release. I just go their Safina sculpt and she is so elegant.

    16. Yes, Dream Valley has very beautiful dolls, I like that they look so fragile
       
    17. Little Monica, sadly they’re defunct now but I still love their sculpts to this day. As far as companies I have dolls from and are still active, Dream Valley. I also love Gem of Doll (have ares fullset on layaway!!), Peakswoods (dream doll is human lune on the smaller body for that size w/ monster hands) and Coral Reef (I don’t have anything from them Yet, but almost everything they’ve put out is swoon worthy)

    18. Wow, that's very cool, I didn't know Peakswoods, I watched them and they are magical, I love Gothic and I think there's something about them

    19. ive always been a big fan of Luts, but I really fell in love with their sculpts after they separated from CP :love that being said I do have a soft spot for fairyland for that reason! nostalgia for those old luts/CP days.

      I do wish they had more variety in their darker resin options though... withdoll's rosy brown is gorgeous, really wish I could get a Luts doll in that color!!
       
    20. Two contemporary makers I love most are Rosen Garden and Kanadoll. I don't have any kanadoll in my collection, but I can tell I would really enjoy them. :aheartbea maybe someday I will have one face.
      Oh as for why I love them. I respect and am thrilled by artists/ companies who have a consistent style that I enjoy who can make lots of different faces which all seem very magnetic to me. Just personal visual tastes, they are pretty!
