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.

How Big is Too Big?

Apr 8, 2008

    1. I think 1/2 would be the limit, for me...I cant imagine anything bigger than half my height.
      1/1 would be crazy. XD
       
    2. My boys are 65 and 70 cm. I dont feel like they are big or heavy, but its really nice to feel theu wight something, not like plastik hollow thigies. Also it would be really nice to have 80 cm doll :)
      From the collector's point, I dont think size is of a big issue, unless you dont have enought space, but if you play with dolls, handling big ones should be really hard.
       
    3. the 70cm dolls are fine for me, but those 80cm dolls are a little to big in my option
       
    4. Wow, 80cm? For me, my small room and 1,60 height that's too much. XD
      I only have one SD, but I think it's the perfect size for me. This is really a personal taste, i think. ^^'
       
    5. I would say my acceptation is any doll less than 60cm.
      I prefer smaller dolls like around 40 ish.
       
    6. Well, I like the thought of large dolls, but I personally would not like to have anything over 70cm. x-x
       
    7. My biggest (with his shoes on) is 65 cm, and i like to leave it at that, so my arms won't fall off if i want to take him somewhere :)
       
    8. Biggest one for me is 70, and even then it is hard to handle them sometimes. I dont think I could handle a 70 cm+ one, just couse of the weight and size of it. I have trouble finding space as it is with my Soom MDs >.<.
       
    9. I like the MSD sizes because they feel just right for me. Also, I'm going to a school out of state (from VA to GA) and I feel like they're more portable than larger sizes. Then, the larger sizes look to lanky for my taste (especially SOOM's).
       
    10. I sort of have the opposite opinion- I like 60-65cm SDs- no problem, and I love MSDs (they're the perfect travel size!) But I can't really manage with tinies- I don't like them. PukiFees and all that are waaaay too small, and they make me feel like a little kid again playing with tiny dolls. Just my opinion. I think the smallest I'd be willing to own is 30-35 cm. Smaller than that and they don't really feel like bjds any more! Not to mention, I'd have a devil of a time trying to paint them! I already struggle with my MSDs and SDs XD <--- isn't very good at faceups yet
      To answer the question (ahem; sorry >.<) I think anything over 65cm is waaaay too big for me- I don't want to feel like I have a child- I'm only 19!
       
    11. I guess 80cm...

      My current collection is between 70cm and 80cm. Had 2 others earlier but sold them since they were too short and out of scale to hang out with my new loves :(

      No plans to go bigger yet :)
       
    12. I love my Jareth. [Dollzone Megi]
       
    13. If i have enouth space, there's not a limit of the their height``
      I‘m looking forward to own a DOI~
       
    14. Size doesn't really matter (or weight) as long as I like the doll and that i'm able to meet his/her "needs". I'll be an owner of two msds by the end of this year or early jan. :3
       
    15. I love the larger dolls. ^_^
      I started with a 60cm girl, then my next doll was a Soom monthly (so about 65cm in her hooves), and my latest doll will be about 70cm once his head arrives. Notice the trend? My next two dolls will be Mecha Angel girls. So yeah...they are growing!
       
    16. I think I could deal with something in the 50-60's in theory...but it will probably never happen. 30 cm is probably my real limit, but I'm a tiny person ^^; So I admire any size if I think they are pretty!
       
    17. I like 50-plus to 60-plus dolls... I've never seen a 70cm doll in person, but I wouldn't mind owning one. ^^""" Although my priority is still 50-plus to 60-plus.
      "Too big" in my opinion, would be...those artist dolls that are as big as an actual child, and are meant to look like actual children. I think it would be freaky to look at them, especially from a distance... They'd feel too "real"...and my imagination would start playing tricks on me.
       
    18. I like tall dolls too. But they are really heavy..... if i buy one i think it would be 70c tall... a bigger doll is too heavy for me...
      but... if i could choose a size...i woud whish me a life-sized doll >_</ (i won't imagine me how heavy it would be @_@)
      but too small dolls aren't a choice for me....
       
    19. I got my first doll a month ago and she's a BBB Elfkin and love her to bits but that did prove that i like bigger dolls better and i've decided she will be my only small doll. *nod nod nod* i hope to get a Lusion still sometime in the future so yeah i wont have a size limit hehe :aheartbea
       
    20. i have all the doll sizes and i really like my bigger dolls best. My 90cm hale is to cool for words and my 80cm mechas are to die for. The 70cm are so nice and sleek looking.
