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.

    2. Yeaaaahhhh, you're not older than "everyone else around you," @TwistedRiver. I'm now a couple of months away from 60, and I still play with My Crew. :3nodding: I might be one of the older men that still collect dolls here on DoA, but somehow, I even doubt that. :whee:

      It does seem like a lot of the younger people are leaving the hobby though. Life happens, yannow?

      Glad to see I'm not the only 50+ person "still playing with toys!" :thumbup

    3. I'm 72 and I actively collect dolls. You are never too old to enjoy what you love.

    4. *snip*

      Exactly! Even though I only collect BJDs (I don't like most other kinds of dolls), I love My Crew, and taking pics of them and interacting here on DoA is a fun part of this hobby! :3nodding:

    5. I'll be 68 next month - yikes! - I don't feel that old! I've been a member of DOA for 15 years and owned dolls for about the same amount of time. Over the years I've dropped in and out of the hobby but my boys (and girl) have stayed with me. Right now I've surprised myself by ordering a new doll, not something I thought I would be doing again, but never say never! So, yes, definitely still in the hobby and enjoying it again.

    9. I'm 24. I first got a pullip when I was 17 and it was my dream to make my character into doll form, so I also spent lots of time waiting patiently for the anime looking dolls to restock their little girl parts, I was going to learn how to do faceups and all but then I got pregnant and life happened.
      But then my friend found an even better doll to customize into my OC. So I sold the anime doll & I got my first & only BJD when I was 19. She is soooo cute, but I might have to sell her..

    10. I would love that. I can communicate with any age of people, but we "oldies" have different insights and experiences sometimes. :)

    14. I'm 32-y-o man and I got my half BJD (only the head) lately.

      I've never been attracted by dolls before my best friend offered me this head.
      Now, I can't let this boy without a body :O

    19. I'm 23, but I've been interested in BJDs since I was 14, and I've been collecting "normal" dolls since around that time too :)

      But I just purchased my first BJD (a Resinsoul Xun) TODAY and I'm so excited about her!!
