what is more exciting searching , deciding, opening the box or playing with the doll

The whole process is really fun for me! I still spend a lot of time just looking around online even though I haven't ordered any dolls in some time - that's really fun for me. Like window shopping!

When I first started I think I liked the ordering and the box opening best, but I got much better at taking pictures over time and once I started being happier with the pictures I was taking that kind of became my favorite.

 

For me the most exciting part is opening the box and dressing him/her up for the first time and really admiring him/her fully. and espixcally when i sent them for custom faceups, whenever they arrive i am always super excited to have a look at how their faceups look like.

It is just satisfying to me

 

they're all super exciting for me, but the most exciting is opening the box! especially if you can be there when the doll arrives at the door. *__*

 

I buy all of my dolls second hand these days. (I have the need to adopt problem!) so I get super excited when I make the deal and I nearly can't sleep when I know their about to be in my area for delivery. When I get the box, I wait a few hours... Maybe even a day to open the box. (I get scared that I won't love it.) then I open them up and it's like falling in love all over again.

I will say I do enjoy dressing them and finding that right outfit for them. I've had my 3 "girls" for about 4 months now, and have finally gotten them all wigged out and outfits of their own. I enjoyed waiting for new clothes for them and I enjoy just dressing them.

Now I got the adoption fever again and am going to be waiting for another two dollies to come home to me. I've been watching these two for the past 2 months. I finally just can't take it anymore and have to have them.

 

The way I'm always looking and buying makes me worry that I like those aspects the most... But I really don't think so! (Although I obviously don't dislike that!) I like having the doll and getting them the way I like them... (In my case, that can just be dressing them up in their fullset outfit! I'm too easy that way!)

 

I love all those things. Just looking at my dolls makes me so happy. It is so exciting planning out a character and then seeing them come together. I love that moment when they are whole (as in have a face up, wig, eyes and outfit) and you can see how they turned out.

 

Most exciting for me is the "click" on the purchase and pay buttons XD' That's when it gets real and I squee and make a happy face (even though I'm always alone in my room) *^^*
It just gives me a thrill to know I have now actually purchased this gorgeous item I've been drooling over on my screen for days.
But I also get very excited about my dolls when I'm with other doll-enthusiasts and they say nice things about my dolls. It makes me super happy if other people can understand how happy I am for my dolls haha

 

I think the most exciting part for me is actually being told your package arrived and you hold it for the first time, wanting to open it to see your doll in personl for the first time. To hold it and all that.

 

like [MENTION=1353]Karisu[/MENTION], for me the most exciting thing is clicking the paypal buttons (really... because otherwise I never spend as much money at once on things... apart from my rent, but it's not pleasurable :P
2. when I'm unwrapping the doll :3
3. when I put back the newly-face-upped head on a body and take some pics of it

 

I really couldn't say! For me, the part of searching and deciding is very important, I spend a lot of time searching over all the websites, not only for buying a doll but also for their clothes or accesories and I enjoy it very much.
As others have said, when it is all decided, clicking the paypal button has something special, is like you almost have the doll you love. I feel I can almost see it the way it looks in my head, hanging up with my other dolls.
Waiting for the package is a mixture of feelings, it is exciting but it is stressfull too, and let's not talk about customs because I get angry just thinking of all the times they have stopped a doll package for almost a month! And opening the package is not a big deal for me, I get happy, but as I usually don't order the doll with make up or clothes, I only receive a blank paper in which I have to put what I have in mind, so it is not very exciting.
But when the doll is finished and I love it is perfect. I love to stare at them, to play with them, to photograph them, I think that is the greatest part for me, to develop them as beings and Learning about them and their stories and the way they interact... beautiful.

 

I LOVE to hunt down sculpts (I'm only searching for difficult to find dolls; it's my way to 'bond' with them, I guess). There's something exhilarating about knowing a sculpt is rare, and then searching for months, or years before you find one. That moment when I finally manage to buy that doll? There's nothing like it.

 

a complicated question, but the most exciting moment is when the box is opened and I check all doll

 

I definitely think that the most exciting part, for me, is opening the box! Well, that and having the new doll for the first few days. It's just so fulfilling, you know?

After a while, the shiny brand new-ness of the doll wears off, and s/he just becomes part of the collection. Not that that's bad, just not as exciting.

 

I love searching for a new doll so much and then finally finding one is also pretty high up on my favorites list.

 

I don't have a doll yet, but I've been spending most of my free-time browsing around for the perfect sculpt, shoes, dress, eyes, etc and I've been having SO much fun! Literally, I haven't had this much fun in years. It's keeping me busy & I'm not thinking about school, work, and all the things that stress me out. Honestly, seeing doll owners talk about getting their dolls makes me so enthusiastic, I can't wait to get my own So glad I joined DoA

 

I used to get a total high off of box openings, but as time went on that transferred to actually doing things with my faves. Getting a good photograph or feeling like I've just done an amazing faceup is much more exciting now!

 

Each part is exciting to me, but what I prefer is when I have them in hands or in the display case and be able to look at them. It makes me happy to see such beautiful dolls, it makes me feel good.

 

I have to say, my favorite part of the hobby is searching for new and unique items for my dolls (ie clothing shoes wigs eyes). I've only just settled on a brand of eyes I like for my dollfie dream girls, which I had to order through a proxy from taobao.

 

I think the most exciting thing is waiting for the doll, and opening the box.

 

definitely searching and waiting!!
