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 unique features of a doll do you adore?

Sep 2, 2021

    1. I know there's the more general things like "cute expression", "adorable proportions", and while those preferences are all well and good I LOVE seeing super unique features on dolls! Centaur body? Amazing! Claws? Stunning! What don't you see very often on dolls that you love?

    2. its becoming more and more common now but i love dolls with well sculpted double joints, i like more natural posing and double joints allow for that, also fangs,,,fangs are adorable two of my dolls have little fangs.

    3. Pointy teefs! They can range from cute to cool to creepy depending on the doll and I love them for it. :3

    4. Elf ears! Any and all kinds I guess based off my current collection but I was really into the minimal elf ears that looked more like the ears from Lord of the Rings or Vulcans in Star Trek.

    5. I'm a big fan of wings or extra eyes >.> general monstrous looks are neat too. If I were any good at sculpting I would be modding more often xD

    6. Am I commenting on my own thread? Yes. I wings and horns on my dolls! Tails and fangs can be cute as well, but I love fantasy style dolls more than anything

    7. I love when they’re sculpted with eye bags :D or eyes that are droopy (they look sad but also automatically give the doll a very kind/soft look)!

    8. ..its gonna sound odd, but a nice jawline. I dislike dolls with weak jawlines, I just can't find myself purchasing them. I melt for a nice jawline. It doesn't have to be strong, but just realistic and not like an 'anime' doll

    9. Centaur bodies. I only have one but she’s great. No more shoes! Or pants!

    10. Varied elf and fantasy ears! I have a Gem of Doll Capricorn with goat ears to match her twirly horns, and a Soom fairy with droopy ears. I have several dolls with wings, another feature I love. Though I think I have enough winged dolls, I have more with pointy ears on my wish list.

    11. Are animal ears ok? I legit had my Lati Yellow obsession start from someone on Instagram making their Lati into a squirrel. Cat ears are ok, but Bear ears?! Goat ears and horns!!

      I just go nuts for tiny animals now lmao

    12. My pukipuki pongpong, my favorite doll, has a little teeth almost not noticiable, as if she was a baby vampire with the fangs growing. Its so damn cute!

    13. It’s been said but pointy teefs. And elf ears. I will jump at the opportunity for them.

      I have more Vic heads than necessary lol.

    14. Big ugly noses! Button noses and ski slopes might be generally more aesthetically pleasing to most, but I like some realism in my dolls--I don't want a crew of super models, I want a group of "normal" characters.

    15. Skeleton dolls, dolls with exposed bone or muscle and scarring, and cyborg dollies! There can never be too many. Especially cyborg dolls. Dlace is the only company I can think of with cyborg dolls atm.

    16. My sell point is...

      Nose.

      It gives personality to the face and usually companies or artists don't really focus on it, but more on the shapes of the eyes.

    17. I love a sculpt with teeth, smiles, and winking eyes.

    18. Long droopy elf ears, wing ears, and fluffy ears! Changeable mouth parts. Swivel thigh joints. And I'm probably in the minority on this one but I love me some big bobble heads!

    19. I'm always searching for bodies that are very stylized, but lately I find myself especially attracted to bulky hands, wrists and forearms. I like chunky legs and ankles too... I know some people hate this look and call it "cankles" but it's a super popular style in illustration and cartooning and I think it's underutilized in dolls. Thankfully Guardlove's recent release actually recreated this look perfectly!

      As for facial features... Buck/snaggly teeth, unique nose shapes, big/prominent ears, wide or large mouths. :3nodding:

    20. I’m a huge fan of fantasy dolls! Anything that has different ears, wings, or hooves. Usually what draws me to a doll though is the eyes. I love big ol’ cute eyes! :) My current obsession is my Soom Mylo. She so stinking cute! <3
      I would love a cute little fanged teef doll at some point but finding one I want has proven difficult so far. XD No clue what size I want to go for.
