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 would you feel if there's a doll that look like you?

Jan 23, 2013

    1. Eva passed away two weeks ago from a 5 yr fight with cancer. She was the most incredible baby doll artist I have ever known and her dolls will always be some of the most collectible. I so treasure the ones I have of hers.
       
    2. I wonder if comfy tracksuits covered in dog hair come in doll size? Because if I found a doll like me I would definitely buy it and sit it on the couch next to me, and matching tracksuits would be a must!

    3. Well....dolls that supposed to look like someone never look like that person anyway, so I wouldn't worry that much :lol: Okay, those were barbies most of the time, but still....

      And I've never seen a overweight bjd :XD:

      But to answer you're question: I would probably not buy it. Lack of elf ears :)
       
    4. Well my aunt told me that Avian looked like me :lol:
      But if I did find a doll that looked exactly like me I would two of them and one would be goth and the other would be lolita. I've always loved those styles but I don't think I could dress like that (I'm kinda lazy when it comes to clothes).
       
    5. Actually there is one Doll ( but sadly not a BJD ) which looks like my younger me. An old friend of my grandmother owns her.
      I think it is pretty cool to have like a "tiny me" ...... Would be much better if it was a BJD ^____^
       
    6. I would not buy a doll who looks like me and I would strongly question the company's marketing. XD I don't think I'm ugly, but I certainly don't have popular doll proportions or Hollywood beauty standards.
       
    7. @CloakedSchemer well I think sure the doll doesn't have to look exactly a like, but it would be awesome to have similar features like eyes or mouth ;)
       
    8. Well in that case, it might be kind of cool. I do think my eyes are my best feature, and I probably would buy a set of eyes in my natural green color. :) I just wouldn't want a minimee.

    9. Well it depends :)
      I chose my first BJD to look very similar to me, because I love imagining myself as different characters. I chose Iplehouse Doria based on some common features, so we're similar in face type like straight medium long nose, high cheekbones, similar eye shape, chin, face shape etc. Of course I don't have that perfect body she has, but after all the body can change, the face is more permanent, so I'd judge all similarities based on the face only :)
