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.

What is your favorite doll size and why

Jan 14, 2010

    1. I have had an AoD 62cm body before and I hated it. Its so thick, almost impossible to buy clothing for. He literally had one pair of TTYA pants that fit, so i dont recommend that body unless you can make clothing lol
       
    2. I prefer 46-55 cm as far as the size that is the most comfortable for me to handle and carry around, but as far as sculpts go I tend to get 60-70 cm dolls for the more mature look.
       
    3. i am a seamstress so i can make clothing but it does sound like a pain in an ass if i did want to buy clothes ( i dont know very much about which bodys and stuff are good) i mainly go off of what other people say is good or worth the money someone i follow uses the aod body for her switch dojin head (a head i really want) and it looks so good together :)
       
    4. I like my 60cm boys a lot:). My first doll ever as an SD and then I had some MSD phases, and owned two tiny dolls. But I like the SD.

    5. I do prefer the MSD / 40-50cm range as thats the most comfortable size and weight for me to manage. Unfortunately as there's not much in the way of mature looking male head sculpts in the MSD range so my male characters have ended up being SD sized. Tbh I really struggle with them, they're so tiring to do anything with and take up more space. I don't mind tiny dolls but as i'm not interested in toddler/young child dolls, most of my small doll are anthros. The downside is that i find they tend to have very limited posing which frustrates me a lot so i end up not doing a lot with them either. So yeah, my MSD girls definitely get played with the most :)

    6. I Like Msd size, their clothes aren't too small so they are easy to make and the props and scenery aren't too big either.
       
    7. SD sized is my preference; 60cm to 70cm range.

    8. I started off with 40-45cm girls, then a 16cm tiny and my latest three are 48, 57 and 65. I love the bigger sizes a lot more, I've noticed. They're indeed a bit easier to make stuff for, and slightly easier to fake parts of real environments into being 'in scale' in photos.
       
    9. Firstly I was more to the yosd size because 1/6 is a pretty common size for dolls, but I have always had a obsession with tiny miniatures so I got a pukipuki and I'm in love! I thought about getting a realpuki but its probably harder to find clothes for her, I guess pukipuki has the right balance of being tinytiny but still easy to work with.
       
    10. My 65cm is probably my favorite. Smaller seem too compact and larger seem stretched out. (Maybe it's just the scults I have? xD) Close second is my 45cm because she's the perfect display size meanining I can easily find somehwere to display her. ^^

    11. Yes I know how you feel! I picture my boy Gabriel (LittleRebel Kaylar) as having quite a slim body but all the 65+ bodies are so muscly! I have however found the Loongsoul B-B62-02 body which is quite slim with some muscle definition (but not too much) and I think it would be perfect for him and I plan to get it!
       
    12. I like grown size male dolls, around 68 to 72cm is the best for me. I found 65cm to be a bit short for grown size doll, that's why I really hope volks could release one in 68cm or up in the future.

    13. SD sized dolls, especially in the 70-80 cm range. I prefer bigger dolls generally, but I've never seen an MSD in person so I'm still open to it!

    14. I have all kinds of sizes in my crew... but the 60-65cm range are my favorites.

    15. I really like the 60-70cm range! I own two boys that are those measurements respectively and I quite like them both because they are really easy to find clothes for. That’s pretty much my deciding factor in size, like I like the look of 80cm dolls but, they just seem hard to find clothes for and buying clothes/changing clothes is one of my favourite parts of having dolls, lmao. :aheartbea

      All that said, I’m open to owning a MSD sized doll. There’s a few Kid Delfs that are so cute. :D

    16. I like SD, specifically, in the 52-62cm range. I feel like I can find the most sculpt options to fit my OCs in that range, they're pretty easy to shop/sew for, and I feel the size is worth the money.

      But...since I just spent the weekend packing my 60cm boy around a convention, I'm really liking my 12cm anthro right now, too!

    17. I like yosd size. Because is Just fit to take with.
       
    18. Hmm, I'm not really sure, I guess SD. I feel like Msd is a hood size though because it's not too big and not too small.
       
    19. I have never owned a doll smaller than a minifee, but between MSD, SD, and SD17 size, I prefer SD sized dolls (the 60 cm size). It's really hard to find clothing for muscular large dolls, or I'd prefer them. SD sized dolls have just enough choices in shoes and clothing to keep me happy, and they are also big enough that they have a presence in my room!
       
    20. I definitely prefer my 1/4 size dolls. I’ve had a 1/3 but I just found her difficult to handle and hard to pose. I’ve also have a 1/12 that I recently got an have put right back in the box bc I just don’t care for the size , however I have bonded with my 1/4 girls , haven’t been bonded with a male but I love my 1/4 girls they are so much fun to dress and pose and easy to transport . And I definitely love playing dress up with them and taking them out for pictures and some times they chill on the table or couch next to me or go for car rides .
