Which defunct doll companies would you resurrect?

It was all over the Elfdoll discussion threads a while ago. No new Rainies yet, but there have been new minis.

 

Don't think anyone has said these, but I'd love to see napidoll and Illusion Spirit back. I was so in love with Illusion Spirit sculpts, and so disappointed when they discontinued everything

 

I'd love to see Dream of Doll back. I really liked their sculpts and limited dolls when i first joined the hobby and purchased some accessories from them.

 

Dream of Doll left before I was old enough to be able to afford them on my own!! X_X TT_TT </3

 

Dream of Doll for sure. I've been eyeing their tinies, esp. Libra for so long... I'm missing that company. My first doll is from DOD and I still dearly love her... Would like to give her a lil' brother...

 

Real Missing Link - the old version. Their 1/3 sculpts are scrumdiddilyumptious.

Two more votes Angelheim and Domuya.
I had no idea Angel Battle disappeared

 

I miss Dream of Dolls' aesthetic, especially their clothes! I'd love to see them come back.

I remember Homme Ducan being one of the first dolls I fell in love with.

 

I know! I do, too.

 

Elfdoll
I would like a Dami very much!!!
And Dream of Doll...

 

for me it would be dream of doll and also fantasia doll

 

I wish Raurencio released their old heads because mmmmn Adonis. And also Dream of Doll. There are so many dolls from them that I wanted.

 

I miss AngelRegion so much... they were going to do an improved body for their boys that never materialized, and their fullsets were always so fun. (Bluefairy is similar in size and some sculpts but their aesthetic is very different.) Ugh, what I wouldn't give to see what they'd do with a Glory Angel revival, but that ship has long sailed.

And I count myself lucky to have the Dream of Doll dolls that I do, but wow, do I ever miss them, maybe even more than I miss AR. I was at Otakon last year and someone was cosplaying a Tender Shall fullset, and it just reminded me of how beautiful their classic sets were.

 

Dream of Doll... the first company I ever saw before I knew what BJDs were, I fell for Black Elf Ducan, he was the most amazing thing I'd ever seen... when I did get into BJDs years later, Homme Ducan was one of the first sculpts that made me feel completely in awe of the dolls, now I have a Homme and Elf Ducan, but I still wish there could have come a day Black Elf Ducan would come back, and now that's completely impossible (not that it was ever likely to begin with).

 

Elfdoll is making a comeback (and I'm definitely looking forward to both old and any new Rainy sculpts), so I'd say... Domuya. They literally disappeared just as I was getting into the hobby; moreover, I remember they went out of business while in the middle of a big eco-themed project that left some collectors with their orders unfulfilled. In spite of this, I liked the aesthetics of their bodies, as I've always been fonder of not-so-buff (resin) boys ; ) In fact, my most pampered BJD is an Elfdoll/Domuya hybrid.

 

I believe Domuya dissolved due to the owners getting divorced

 

I miss Buddydoll, and Angelheim...

 

As of this week? Sugarble.

 

I hadn't realised, what a shame for them I found domuya ahead of their time, their SD sized horse companion was beyond my budget when it was available, and although i couldn't handle the taller Flexi body, just adored the Fin sculpt and did regret selling her for a number of years afterwards.
