All the volks doll was one that i didnt like and i never thought i would have the volks doll in my house. I thought it's just expensive and not my type. especially the promotion picture for old famous volks sculpts looked scary to me. however when I saw Tohya from my friend, I searched all markets and had him in a week I searched. my friend still make joke about it cuz i always told her that i would never have Volks doll in my doll fam, and I did
When I was looking for my first doll, I saw Resinsoul and Bobobie recommended as a good lower cost starter doll. I didn't get one though, because the stock photos of them are so awful. After seeing some owner photos, I fell in love with their aesthetic. Now I have three and have another couple I'm thinking of getting from them.
Doll Chateau. When I first entered the hobby I thought they looked bizzare and something out of nightmares but they've grown on me, mostly because of how different they are.
100% agree with the Doll Chateau. I used to think they were creepy, but now I have one and am eyeing another.
Yes! I'm actually really susceptible to this, I think part of it is I have an initial reaction then I get desensitized to that reaction after seeing them a few times. Add in a few brilliant owner pics and suddenly I'm in love There are a few that I find really unattractive at the moment, don't really want to say which incase I offend anyone and I dislike them so much I'm actually afraid I might end up liking them (I know myself too well!)
I used to not like sarubias since (in my opinion) the company photos are unappealing and don’t really show how nice of a sculpt it is. But my sarubia is the gem of my collection now I could also say the same about a lot of resinsoul sculpts. I’ve never liked how they look ok the website but some of the owner pics I’ve seen are gorgous
Definitely! I strongly disliked Soom Heliot and couldn't understand why people think this sculpt is beautiful. Look who's in my avatar now He's one of my favorites.
Doll Chateau. I really, really disliked the skinny bodies. They looked so unatural and pit creepy to me. Than I saw Colin! He has such gentle, unusual face. The bodies no longet bother me, I got used to the aesthetic and stylization. They actually go well with the heads.
A lot for me. At first, I hated DC's wrists, but I've fallen in love with them, and have more than one grail. I also hated Momonis, surprisingly, just something about their faces and bodies irked me. But now my second highest grail is a momonita! I think a lot of my dislike stemmed from being young, and not liking "atypical" body shapes, because I was insecure about myself too. I also just wasn't into stylized bodies, but I can't for the life of me figure out why. Dolls that are too cookie cutter all look boring to me, if I have multiple. I love variation in bodies!
While it wasn't a specific sculpt that I hated - I have never like vampire teeth. I didn't think vampire BJDs were scary or anything, but I just didn't like how the teeth looked. Naturally, I have 3 vampire BJDs now and one more on the way -_- My opinion probably changed after seeing custom faceups on them, but otherwise, I don't really know why I changed my mind!
I used to not be fond of Luts Bory until I followed some people on Insta who has that sculpt (turns out that it looks amazing styled with a long wig that frames the face, ha....). I can definitely see why the sculpt is so popular now... It has a melancholic look to it which makes stand out
Fairyland Minifees. I couldn't stand them years ago. But I'm planning on buying two boys and a girl in 2020. So there's that.
The first time I clapped eyes on Granado's sculpts they were too realistic. After seeing so many other anime-ish dolls they were way into the uncanny valley, did not like. After a few weeks I warmed to them. Now they easily one of my favorite companies.
I don't really hate or dislike any sculpt at all, since I think each sculpt has its own beauty, it is just me that not realize it or not yet in my taste. However, I tend to fall in love with unpopular sculpts than popular ones from the same company. For example, recently, I love Ryuzo sculpt from Switch, even though Soseo/Seolrock (my friend told me that) they are the popular high-demand sculpts from Switch.
I really didn't like Doll Chateau at first. I thought their body shapes kind of glamourized or fetishized anorexic bodies. Then I realized how lovely their faces are and how many of them break the beauty norms, and the bodies started growing on me. I kind of see them now as cartoonish, not purposefully idealizing a dysmorphic body type.
Didn't care too much for Resinsoul at first, but then when I started looking at characters people have made with their Resinsoul dolls, I fell very quickly in love with them! I'm even thinking about buying their Tang in the future.
Yes. Doll Chateau. I thought those dolls are very strange. Now four years later I start layaway on a DC girl and like many other sculpts from them.
I didn't like Volks Suigintou at first. I loved the character, but their dolly interpretation seemed too realistic, not anime enough. Now she's one of my grails. However, I'm once more kinda falling out of love, just because I don't have a character for her (both character ideas I had for her were shelled by other dolls), and she's SO hard to get a legitimate copy of. I still love seeing owner pics and one-off pics of her, though.
