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.

Grail Companies/Artists?

Feb 1, 2016

    1. I really want an IOS Osiris doll. I'd even settle for just the head. I hope to one day find him, or the head for sale. :)
       
    2. Elfdoll/Rainman. Also Supia and Granado.
       
    3. I'm not looking for new dolls right now, but Merry Doll Round is on my radar, and I've always admired Bimong's work and want another doll from them (I regretfully re-homed the one I had a long time ago). My other grail dolls are from Volks and Dollshe, though I have had several Volks dolls and still have one.
       
    4. I love most of the volks dolls they are so adorable and the way they do the faceups so cute.
      Also i really like the soom faery legend dolls.
       
    5. Hmm actually I've bookmarked quite a lot of grail from Soom and Soul Doll and perhaps Migidoll. Those are beautiful, I really love Soul Doll's girls and Soom's guys.

      Though lately I've discovered quite a few more companies like Iplehouse, I don't think I'm really into their basic dolls (but they're still beautiful though, don't get me wrong!). But I do, DO love their first doll customizing order system OMG. That'll work like a charm for me if I ever want to purchase my first BJD from them.
       
    6. Supia and Granado, definately, though I would really really love to get some of the SOOM fantasy sculpts.
       
    7. :XD:I would love to have an Enchanted Doll, but the likelihood of that ever happening is pretty much zero.

    8. Well my list got longer reading responses here....:blush

      I have a Lillycat on layaway right now :D and since I am getting back into the hobby, I took a long hard look at what I wanted the dolls to do for me. In the end, I am in it for a mini haute couture fashion muse. So Lillycat's Ellana is a perfect sculpt for that.

      Also on the list are a large doll from Twigling, and now Magic Mirror & Enaibi :aeyepop:. I think since funds are limited I am only going to collect grail dolls. It will be a longer approach to collecting but that is fine. It just means more time to sew for them and time for the other long list of hobbies I have.

    9. Honestly I kinda want all the Kid Delfs from Luts, I just love their faces u-u
       
    10. Volks kills me :drool So glad I at least have one Volks head now xD but I want more bbys... my friend has a SDM Mako and I want one so bad now ;w;
       
    11. haha I don't own any dolls from my grail companies either (except Volks now!!) don't worry. My fav Migi sculpt is Ell <3 I also like Joe and Ryu though.. might have to have one someday ;D
       
    12. I love Twigling *-* and I almost went for the cookie-skin Fang preorder from MDR recently ;-; kinda wish I'd gone through with it, but there was another artist doll I was after (Youpla Dolls Zopa). But I definitely want a Fang in the future ~
       
    13. I love the fantasy colors Soom puts out like their light violet ;w; hopefully I'll find one secondhand someday.
       
    14. Crobidoll Tei is a fav :D one of the first sculpts I really loved getting into the hobby.
       
    15. Same! I keep looking at KW Millie on JPopDolls, she isn't available now but I love her pouty face~

    16. She has such graceful dolls and beautiful resin colors!

      Ohh I agree! I really want some of DZ's bodies. I love love a company with variety!
       
    17. I'm going to order two bodies from them soon! They have such gorgeous sculpting and I hear they pose amazingly. The wait time freaks me out too, I'm planning to go through their eBay dealer jeeryama for that reason. I mean it still won't be short but I think it will be less time than going through a dealer like MoC.

      DC has such pretty willowy bodies~ I love the spider body honestly. It freaks my mom out, lol.
       
    18. Migidoll or Switch! They have the best boy sculpts. :whee:
       
    19. Akhmel and Enaibi, and quite a bit of Soom as well...
       
    20. LOL Congrats on your Volks doll! :D And YES I love Ell! Though I also love Yujin just as much. *v* Maybe one day I'll acquire an Ell or Yujin.... :D

      My tastes tend to run pretty all over the place, to be honest my favorite company is Fairyland because of their bodies, but I don't really like any of their sculpts ;o; From there I like only 1-3 dolls from every other company. LOL. Picking a "grail" company was really hard, but I think Migidoll runs my aesthetics the most!
