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.

What is your grail doll?

Feb 13, 2013

    1. Absolutely a Dollshe Bermann on the Rhythmos body, SA or OE, don't care, and he'd preferably be freshskin, but really any of the lighter colors would be totally fine. (Pretty much just NOT tan.) There are other dolls I like more that I have or will have soon, and plenty of other dolls that I might get someday as well, but this one, he is the grail. Dammit Bermann. TT~TT
       
    2. this guy :( Tsuyoshi Maki has been my dream for years... oh well
       
    3. My current grail is not terribly expensive but she does appear to be hard to find...I am dying for a Leekeworld Iris in the lovely B skin. I just love that doll! :aheartbea
       
    4. SA Bermann in a pale resin tone. I was around when they were still being sold, but I was also a high school student with no money. /wrists Anyway, by now it's really just an impossible dream. :\
       
    5. Dollmore Apricot Sherbet Reaa or IMPLdoll's Trista, both are dolls I want more then anything, but I fell in love with a cheaper doll (Resinsoul's Yao), so they'll remain grail dolls for a while, which i guess is the point.
       
    6. I am terrible. I have a new "holy grail" doll at least once a month. As soon as one BJD itch is scratched, another takes its place.
       
    7. My dream is to have Soom Hyperon in bronze skin colour. We'll see how this search turns out since I don't even dare to start looking for him yet @_@
      + bronze skin might rise the expenses higher and higher! For ever grail u.u
       
    8. Amon :D my Grail doll was a Hyperon (any old way) & last Christmas Soom held a special free choice event & I was able to GET a bronze Hyperon!!! I sure never thought I'd be able to get that doll new :D I've decided that in the dollie world at least all things come to them that wait :D
       
    9. Oh jesus! I need to keep very VERY close eye on Soom if that happens again! D8 Thank you for telling that QuQ
       
    10. My grail doll is the normal Cat Version Lati Yellow Lea. (Not the halloween version)
       
    11. Mine right now is Soom Benmore (everything he could have been sold with), Soom Heliot (Same as Benmore), Soom Zinc (Same as Benmore) and of course,

      Soom Shale.
       
    12. My grail doll was and still is my Volks FCS F-36 with custom faceup, loves that doll and got him for my 40th birthday, he is still lovely after 2yrs with me.
       
    13. My grail doll is my Volks YoTenshi Hinata. I just love her smiling little face! None of my other dolls are even a close second to her.
       
    14. My grail doll would have to be flower garden lati lea and Kaye wiggs Nyssa. I hope I will find them one day :)
       
    15. As long as I've been waiting for him - and still waiting - LLT's Ludwig, I guess. Closely followed probably by Volks Ryoma Sakamoto. I know that I'm going to get Ludwig as soon as he's released but I'll probably never have a Ryoma ...
       
    16. I have a great fascination for the Soom Idealian - Hyperon in the Dhampyr version (He look so much like Vampire Hunter D, my favourite character ever!) but I don't know if I'll ever get him and mainly If I really want him! He's too pricy for my current situation and too big...
       
    17. Probably Soom Shale, I can't believe I barely missed an event >.< I hope I'll be able to have him one day.
       
    18. If by "grail doll" you mean "Impossible to buy", then I'd have to say Luts delf Elf Shiwoo. Rarely ever comes up for sale and when he does the seller generally asks for waaaaay more than I'm willing to pay, even for just a head. Sorry, but I refuse to spend more for a used doll (or head) than I would for an entire new fullset doll from Soom or someplace! So, yeah. Unless Fairyland re-releases his head as an event or something, or a seller actually puts one up for an honest price, he'll probably continue to be my impossible-to-buy doll for a good long while.
       
    19. I have two grail dolls. Volks Reisner and white skin Michael. Reisner is not hard to find but very expensive(at least for me;__; ), so I work hard and save money for him. and about Michael of white skin, he is very very rare because he existed only for volks one-off system long ago. even now he doesn't appear on one-off anymore... I wish I could see him for myself just once.
       
    20. My grail doll has to be Dionne, my Woosoo. He is my most prized possession and I never let him out of my sight. When my husband got him for me I almost peed myself I was so happy.
