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. I'm DreamingDoll and SupiaDollz fans....
       
    2. I haven't been in the hobby that long, but I've done a fair bit of research, and I think I can compile a favorites list...

      Luts was the first company I was introduced to, way back in 2008, and to this day my mind immediately goes to them whenever I think "BJD". I'm in love with a lot of their outfits, I just wish actually choosing a doll from them wasn't so complicated.
      Mystic Kids was one of the first companies I learned of after trying to branch out from Luts, and I must say I quite like them. If only the MSD boy body wasn't so, er, muscly... But then again I know I'm a minority when it comes to that opinion, so what're ya gonna do. :p
      I've grown a certain fondness for Doll-Love as a company. I don't know what exactly I'd buy from them first if I had a chance, but something about them just feels... nice.
      And I guess I have to put this here... Blue Fairy. Which breaks my heart every time I think about it. I don't really like their bodies, if I'm to be completely honest... And yet, whenever I browse pictures, sometimes there's a particular doll that catches my eye, and lo and behold, it's a Blue Fairy sculpt. So there's definitely something there.
       
    3. Cerisedolls (not really a company though) Supia, DC and Iplehouse.
       
    4. Fairyland is definitely my favorite! However, I also adore Iplehouse :)
       
    5. It used to be CP / old Luts / Fairyland for me, but after I got my LTF and MNFs I was put off by them as I wasn't able to bond at all.
      Now, I have discovered that my favourite is Peak's Woods. I don't think there is a sculpt of theirs I hate (some a so-so, but not that I find bad). And their customer service is super lovely. So yeah, definitely PW.
       
    6. Marmite Sue- she is so sweet and honest and even agreed to fix a doll for me when I wasn't the original owner.
       
    7. LoongSoul and Doll Chateau right now. I have a hard time picking favorites.
       
    8. I'm a huge fan of Dollzone sculpts. There's not one I don't like <3
       
    9. Luts is where my first dolls are from, so I'm little biased for Luts. Otherwise I find sculpts from IOS, Dollshe and Souldoll intriguing.
       
    10. Dolls from Luts are gorgeous! I really like their kid delf. For clothes, I love Dollheart, even they look expensive.
       
    11. DIM, Doll Chateau, Resinsoul, and Fairyland are mine. I don't even own any Fairyland dolls, or could ever hope to own one that wasn't second hand, but their MNF bodies are probably my favorite sculpt-wise from any company. Resinsoul has some great sculpts and I'm a sucker for abnormal ears and fantasy skin tones. DIM and Doll Chateau always look really delicate. Ugh they're so great. >.<
       
    12. Fairyland and Doll Chateau, tho I haven't owned one, But hopeful I will one day.

    13. Only Doll. I pretty much love everything they make and everything about my Primrose (Only Doll BiYan). Every doll on my wishlist is from them!
       
    14. My first doll is Arwen from LUTS. I have 4 dolls from different companys, but I prefer Iplehouse. I hope to buy their doll some time.
       
    15. I really love Doll Chateau and Fairyland. There are more but I can't name them all off the top of my head because there is a lot.

    16. I really love Little Monica and Supiadoll. I have a doll from each company and they are both very lovely.
       
    17. So far I think Iplehouse is my favorite--there are so many of the dolls that I want!
       
    18. For now, my favorite would be Luts, seeing as that's where I got my first (and only) doll. I also like Iplehouse though, and in the future, I'd like to get a doll from that company, maybe another girl or something. Dollclans is also one company that I like very much, I love their sculpts, especially the way they make the noses of their dolls. :aheartbea
       
    19. I'm a Soom person, but Island Doll and RingDoll are also A+ in my book
       
    20. Doll Chateau and Popovy!
