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.

Picking Favorites

Sep 28, 2011

    1. Right now I have two dolls. I spend some time with each one of them, but the second doll still has no make-up and no official clothes, and that may be a reason for not spending much time with him. I love them both, but I just noticed that difference. I want my baby to be complete. ToT
       
    2. I definitely have a favorite. He was my first doll and based on a character I'd created and written for years, and getting him in doll form was a dream come true. Even though he doesn't pose very well and I find it very frustrating, he's definitely my 'baby.'
       
    3. I'm surprised at the fact that I don't have a set favorite. I love both of my complete boys and their characters for different reasons. I spend more time with Soren out of size convenience, but if I'm home and watching a movie or writing, both of them are out and seated nearby. If it came to be that I could only have one, it would be Soren for the fact that his character has been with me longer, but I don't see myself parting with either any time soon. I kind of flip flop between the two of them as favorites, depending on my mood.
       
    4. I think it is perfectly fine to pick favorites. You do with so many things so, why not dolls. I think everyone love each and every piece of their resin family even if it's not as much as another :)
       
    5. I have favorites who take on personalities all their own. Can't explain it. I guess it happens with people as well!
       
    6. Oh I have a favorite, Issac. He was the first SD boy I ever got. I've had him for nearly five years now. He gets the choice clothing and shoes. He's also the doll I spend the most time carrying around the house. He's also first choice for a travel companion even though he's a big doll (62cm!)

      Right now I am debating on sending him out for a face-up when my new boy goes out for his. I don't like the idea of him being gone.
       
    7. I tend to have a favorite while I'm trying to set a look - get the right wig, the right look. Then I work with the girls equally. However, I have found that I play with the YoSD I have much less than the MSDs or SDs. Perhaps it's because I wear glasses but take them off to play with the girls and don't see the little one as well as the others. Just not sure.
       
    8. I do have temporary favorites, but when considering which doll I'd rescue in a fire, the answer is always my School C. That doesn't change even if I'm currently being favorites towards another doll. So I guess that one is my ultimate favorite!
