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.

Sibling Dolls

May 17, 2015

    1. I have a Lati Yellow and white that I think of as siblings. I noticed that the Lati White, whom I call Rosie, wanted to copy her big sister, Emily. It's funny how it just pops into my mind that they are sisters. I never really planned it that way. It's as if they just decided to be sisters.
       
    2. after reading a series of books I wanted to shell a set of twin sisters & a cousin... luckily enough soon after I discovered Iplehouse dolls. The company happens to actually have a 'set of twins' and they fit the general image of the girls in the books I wanted to shell. I now have home Emilia ... I don't know when I will be getting Erica (note those are nYID dolls sculpts that are the twins). I also have one older brother (20's) and his little sister (8-10 ish). The funny part... I had not planned this... I had not planned the little girl either... I ordered her to get some 'limited' stuff lol XD. So I had zero plans for her.. until she had on a dress and wig and told me she was my guys little sister O_o... They are also Iple dolls (right now all I am getting is IH dolls ;p) I planned on a particular doll to be the sweetheart of my JID "I" (Jessica) ... JID Edwin.... recently IH released a new JID girl... most ppl agree she just looks like Edwin's sister... O_o ... if I have one I have to get the other right? So that is a set of siblings on my wish list now lol.

      My older/younger sibling pair may be getting an 'adopted' sister... not sure how that will work out yet or if it will... Ya my dolls ultimately dictate who they are and the relationships ;p lol.
       
    3. I have 3 dolls planned that are sisters. I only have 1 of the 3 right now, but it will happen some day!
       
    4. I have dolls that are siblings. All my dolls are avatars of my original characters and so the dolls are siblings because the characters are.

      My Dollmore Model F Ipsae and Model M Kyle are fraternal twin brother and sister. I have a Resinsoul Mai and An who are fraternal twin brothers. My Serendipity Cookie and Candy are brother and sister. I used to have a Resinsoul Ya, Seng and Ni who were siblings, although I don't have Seng and Ni any more.
       
    5. One of my dolls is the youngest of six children in her story. I only plan to shell one brother but we'll see how it turns out.
       
    6. Troy and Ephi are brothers. They don't look like each other, but they aren't supposed to look like each other since they have different mothers and both look like their mother >.<

      I also plan to shell their father and his brother in doll form once, but that's for another time
       
    7. Nope. My floating head was intended to be the older brother of one of my current dolls, but as I reflected on my collection a bit and what I really wanted it to be, I decided to change that head to a different character instead. For the longest time I also had plans for a set of twins, but again, as I decided to revamp my collection, they two have become a thing of the past. I doubt at this point I ever will have siblings as my collections is almost complete at this point and I have no desire to continue to expand it to include all the other characters and their siblings that just aren't quite as important to me.
       
    8. My fairyland dolls tend to be siblings. Especially my Ante sculpts, I have an Ante in every size, they're all sisters (of course).
      When I started the hobby I wanted a "family" so I do have lots of sibling dolls actually.
       
    9. I don't really have stories or histories for my dolls. But I do have sets of brothers. I got Genesis (5SD Tumnus) and Rex (5SD Rex)together during an event. They both have red hair and I always have them together, so I think of them as brothers.

      I also think of my 5SD Vivian and my Only-Doll YouNan as being brother and sister. hey are both blond and look similar.

    10. none of the dolls I have (or are planning on getting) are /technically/ siblings. however i have been interested in people who have identical twin dolls. like, what makes you want to have more than one of the same sculpt, especially if their not apart of a specific story.
       
    11. I know one girl who IS a twin and that is sort of why she likes 'twin' dolls. So that is one more reason.

      What I'd love to see is dolls that are obviously the same but with differing expressions (happy, sad, angry... etc.) I'd empty the bank for a doll I liked with that option ... note operative words here... "doll I liked"... I seem to recal one from somewhere but he had an unattractive (to me) face to start with -_- This is a reason I love the idea of 'face PLATES' rather than whole heads.
       
    12. I tend to have fraternal twins or one part of a twin set. I know a friend tho who has "triple" dolls (a doll, his clone, and a clone's alternative reality). a lot of my dolls are characters I RP, and I have a couple "twins' so that would be the reason I have twin dolls.
       
    13. I have siblings planned for my current doll.
      She/they don't have a story or predetermined characters though, I decided to give her siblings because I love her sculpt and want one in each color they are offered in ^^;
       
    14. None of my dolls are technically siblings. But they become sibling when they arrived my home
       
    15. I have two pairs of siblings, both of which were recent additions. My MNF Mio and Chloe weren't actually intended to be siblings at all but I had them next to each other and it suddenly just clicked. I'm now trying to create a back story for them. I also have a Ryeon and Ante who are meant to be siblings but I need to work on them more to see if it works - I didn't buy them with the intention that they would be siblings.
       
    16. I have some dolls that I definitely consider as siblings. Actually, quite a few. I like to try to figure out who they are and how they are related to each other. I some cases it is siblings, ins some cases couples, and for some I still need o figure that out. :)
       
    17. Yes, I do have a little vampy twins. It's just because I was really in love with the doll mold and decided to have one more doll with the same mold and face up. By the way, their eyes are different since the younger one has mystic eyes :) Even thought, they're identical twins, their personality are totally opposite! One is a naughty, playful yet curious boy, another one is a sleepy bug, but a big eater tho! Lol~

      I think this is a joy of having a sibling dolls. You can have more fun making stories and feel the relation between them even thought you are the one who make it :)

    19. I'm not sure if I want my 2 dolls to be sisters or not.. I'm just going to wait on River to get here and I'll make that decision then. :)
       
    20. My folks generally don't have stories or backgrounds so I've never given any of them relationships. However, I'll be getting a second of my favorite sculpt so I'll be making them twins/alternatives. Silbling-ish.
