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 was the first sculpt you could recognize?

Dec 29, 2013

    1. The first one I was able to recognize was a Migidoll Ryu. I then found it easier to recognize Migidoll sculpts. Dollshe Saint has unique features so I was able to recognize him easily. I'm not the very good at recognizing specific sculpts, but I can sometimes tell what company they're from. For example, Iplehouse dolls.
       
    2. The first one I clearly remember being like "OH I KNOW THIS" was Soom Dia, but thats sort of a given with the sculpt's fantastic bee-sting lips ;)
       
    3. The first doll I was able to recognize was Volks Kurumi. Dollfie Dreams were what got me into the hobby when I was fourteen (from my anime phase...) but I was never able to truly tell them apart.
      Kurumi was my grail at the time, but then I saw Lieselotte *_*
       
    4. Tie between Dollshe Saint (first doll I ever actually had pointed out to me) and Delf El (which was THE DOLL at the time I joined the hobby). I can still spot both of them a mile away. (Then again, to be fair, they're pretty distinctive.)
       
    5. I've seen so many different DD sculpts that I know a lot just by looking at the face. Sometimes I can even tell the difference between a Moe 1st version and a Moe 2nd version (I guess you could say DD Moe was the first sculpt I could recognize). There's a hint of difference in the way the mouth has been sculpted and there's just something different about the 2nd that I just don't like as much as the first. x3 But anyway, with DD sculpts, I'm pretty good with knowing who's face I'm looking at. With resin BJDs, I'm not that good at all though. I might be able to tell that a sculpt is made by Soom but only because of their fantasy BJDs. I do kind of know some of Doll Chateau's sculpts though, so maybe I might able to identify those by just looking at the face. :3 But, other than that, I can't say much else. xP
       
    6. Minifee Chloe... because she's so popular, she's everywhere :)
       
    7. Dollmore Mio, from her cute round face!
       
    8. Identifying sculpts comes pretty easy to me for some reason. I'm horrible at remembering faces but sculpts seem to work just fine. The first sculpt that started it all was Littlefee Ante. I was obsessed with that sculpt and looked her up a lot. Although my first sculpt was actually one of her sisters, Leah, I still hope to own her one day.
       
    9. The first BJD I encountered in person was PongPong by Fairyland. My college roomie brought him to lunch. Several months later I found myself researching tiny BJDs. I couldn't remember the company name, but I remembered the goofy face quite distinctly and her silly gawking "yup, he's a pong." And somehow found the dolls based on that.

      As for non-distinct faces, the first ones I have got to recognize pretty instantly are some Doll Love 26cm sculpts. I was close to getting one of the four of YoYo (Grapefruit), YanYan, Ke, or WenWen.. and then I got swept away by the doll I actually ended up with as my first ^_^
      But those four still hold my interest.
       
    10. i can recognize resinsoul An pretty well, probably because be was my first.doll and i had the company's photo as my wallpaper on my phone for months before i got him. <3
       
    11. The first sculpt I could recognise straight off the bat was my first doll, B&G Sky. Other than him, I could first distinguish Migidoll Ryu! Something about Migidolls I just love :D
       
    12. I can pretty much always tell DOT Lukes, Camines, and Lahoos, and I can identify most DOD dolls as DODs, even if I can't tell the specific sculpt. I also find it rather easy to identify BlueFairies:)
       
    13. The first sculpts I learned to recognize where Iplehouse Elin (my namesake), RS Ju (my first doll), PKF Luna (my second doll) and MNF Chloe (because she is just everywhere).
       
    14. the first doll i recognized was DOD Homme Ducan and Ivan then Migidoll Jina, Ryu, Cho.. and Iplehouse Eric
       
    15. Hmmmm recognize without fail would probably be Dollshe Saint or 5th Motiv Venitu? Cause they look really unique to me.
       
    16. I tend to recognize Blue Fairy, since they trade mark face are young child and a bit anime ish style :)
       
    17. I was able to recognize Migidoll Ryu and Volks Kurumi easily when I started, Ryu mostly because I have a friend who owns one :)
       
    18. I recognize Bluefairy sculpts anywhere. Their style is very unique and one of my favorites. <3
      I'm starting to recognize sculpts here and there. I can definitely point out a KDF Bory and a DoD Homme Ducan immediately because theyre very common, haha.
       
    19. I will recognize Supia's doll immediately :)

      Because I'm obsess with them.

      and Im planning to buy One!
       
    20. The first Msd doll I wanted is actually the easiest doll to recognize and it's the Luts Kid Delf Bory. I love that face and so many people own a Bory that I've seen all kinds of face ups for her.
