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. The majority of my collection is from Soom, and I would definitely call them my favorite company. It's the only company I check on regularly. I love the Super Gem line, and have just started dabbling into the Mega Gem and Idealian lines. Their aesthetic just really appeals to me, and I have a strong sense of appreciation for their sculpts and ideas. Their dolls inspire me. I have had a positive experience with their customer service too! I just love Soom! I'm not loyal to only one company, since I do like dolls from other companies too :) My second favorite would probably be Dollshe. Their resin quality and posing abilities are exceptional in my opinion.
       
    2. My first four dolls were CP Delfs. But I bought from other companies in the many years since then. There are a number of companies I like and follow regularly. I've got a lot of Soom and Iplehouse, but many from different companies. I don't see why I should limit myself, even though there are some companies I really like. :)
       
    3. Hmmm, it is not like I am limiting myself to one company but I am kind of a more loyal customer. I still do not own any resin BJD but it happend to me with anime figures... I can be quiet the fangirl of a manufacture and then I also buy more stuff from them. It just happens with nothing I can do about it! There is a reason why I have 9 Dollfie Dreams at home and one incoming head XD
      I ordered my first Ringdoll and I am already stalking them. Always excited for news oft them.... See? It is happening again! WHYYY? XD

      Maybe that happens because I feel more familiar with a company I already ordered from?
       
    4. I think everyone has one favorite doll company or few of it, which have "favorite size favorite taste' x) Every company has own style so we are. If we have the same views then the company becomes favorite.
      Also the service is one of valuable things.
       
    5. Ringdoll has had me interested recently, even though I don't own one of their dolls. Their Norman Light 2.0 make me go weak in the knees. But Resinsoul also hold a place in my heart since my first doll came from them.
       
    6. so far my ''favorites'' are doll leaves (since i got a grey skin andy, hes just lovely),spiritdoll and soom.. migidoll is quite the sexy stuff too ^^ im still new so kinda exploring around the different companies , im not really having any real favorites yet since im so fresh in the hobby :)
       
    7. My favorite company is Volks. The majority of my dolls are Volks. I have 4 dolls from other companies - 2 from Narin doll and 2 from Blue Fairy.
       
    8. Maskcat! They're small but the sculpts are so pretty and even the packaging is super nice...
       
    9. I love soom and a lot other companys, I think it doesn't matter what other people think if u like it u can get it :)
       
    10. I like Fairyland and Iplehouse best :) I think the dolls from Iplehouse are the most beautiful but I like Fairylands bodies more :)
       
    11. My first BJD is Dollmore. I also like Luts and Volks.
       
    12. Volks and Soom! I used to own dolls from many companies, but I found that I buy too much if I don't limit myself. So I narrowed it down to my two favorites and they are all I buy from now. However, I do plan to have one BlueFairy someday, and perhaps a Unoa Lusis. I have two odd Souldolls in my collection, one of which is my first doll so sentimental value, and one who was the first doll I ever wanted to buy. She's long discontinued and I don't have any plans to part with her! Also, I though I sold mine, I love iple dolls. They are beautiful and their resin quality is amazing, but just too realistic to match up with the rest of my collection.
       
    13. I've completely fallen in love with the sculpts of Migidoll~ <3
       
    14. After having been away from this hobby for a few years, I feel somewhat out-of-the-loop as far as knowing the latest sculpts from various companies. I tend to gravitate towards the highly posable dolls though, so I would have to say that Fairyland remains one of my favorites. Iplehouse, Leeke, Supia, and Volks all have fantastic sculpts as well, and I'm excited to be involved with BJDs again. It's one of those hobbies I can always find myself coming back to time and again.
       
    15. I have 3 favorite companies based on the quality, sculpt, and customer service: Marmite Sue's Angel Egg, Volks, and ShinyDoll. Those three companies use, IMO, the very best resin. The sculpting on the Angel Egg dolls is just amazing, and I adore older Volks sculpts and pretty much all the ShinyDoll sculpts. All 3 companies have great customer service; Volks, being the largest, has a lovely customer service team to answer questions & fix any problems with their items; both Angel Egg and ShinyDoll are pretty much one person operations so you deal directly with the artist themselves which is nice.
       
    16. My favorite company is Crobidoll. I love all of there sculpts there just so beautiful and majestic.
       
    17. I just love Iplehouse dolls and Fairyland dolls. Especially Iplehouses boys are on my wanting list , could spend hours just watching their pictures :)
       
    18. There are *SO* many companies whose dolls I admire very much. I really like Supia, Soul doll and Doll Chateau.
       
    19. Even though I'm pretty new to this, I like Iplehouse. However Volks is my first as I wanted a memoir from Japan and they have an amazing selection in their Volks Store in Tokyo.
       
    20. Souldoll and Doll Chateau are my favorites. I like more realistic sculpts generally but Doll Chateau's dolls are just so beautiful!!
