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.

Have your tastes changed?

Oct 16, 2011

    1. My taste has not changed, it has expanded. ;) Five years ago when I discovered the hobby I had no interest in childlike MSD sized dolls. I wanted adult looking boys and tough looking girls, so I got a lot of SD sized dolls. Now that I have a lot of SD sized boys and several tough girls, my interest in getting more of the same is gone. My tastes are meandering towards what I don't have: cute childlike girls in MSD size with very old-school simple bodies, because I also have several Fairyland's super posable dolls.
       
    2. Yeah my tastes have change a small bit. I used to like the really cutesy dolls, but now I only like the more mature looking dollies. I can hardly stand most "cute" dolls now oddly o_o Also I thought the only resins colors I would get would be White, Yellow, and Tan. But so far I've gotten a grey and a pink doll so... That's changed as well xD
       
    3. My tastes are getting stranger and stranger. I still love the 3 dolls I have just as much as when I got them, but now I find myself drawn to the edgy and unusual. I think my future dolls will reflect this shift.
       
    4. Well, before I had an interest in this I collected Victorian looking porcelain dolls. My tastes changed and I saw my friends picking BJDs up. Now I have two dressy BJD ladies, and two males. One a punky kid and the other a gentleman.... so yeah, tastes change over time. I just hope they don't change much more as I get older.
       
    5. Well, kind of.

      When I had no dolls I kept stalking DoD dolls and thought they were the most beautiful dolls I've ever seen. Now I don't like them anymore, not hate but their face sculpts are not that beautiful anymore in my opinion. That happened when I got my first doll which is Luts Kid Delf Cherry, and I still love him.

      I though that all my dolls would be just humans but then I saw that someone was selling Amber head on a Finnish BJD forum and I immediately fell in love with her. And that changed my opinion about fantasy dolls wholely.

      Now I keep stalking Soom sites and think their dolls are pretties I've ever seen and my tastes about dolls has been changing to more mature and realistic sculpts. Well, I still like some of the big eyed sculpts too.
