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.

    1. In my case it's aunt and niece. I got into the hobby first, and surprisingly, after sitting with me and looking at a few of them, she wants one too! I might end up getting her a tiny for her birthday or something.

    2. My sister is. She can't afford one yet, but we talk seriously about it all of the time, and she often goes BJD "window shopping" with me. She's also sewed dresses for my doll and introduced me to sewing at the same time! We're a team. :D

    3. My sister is. She has one that she bought from me. She isn't active online but she still likes them. :)

    4. My mother thinks they are pretty cool. I think she likes the fact that they are so customizable, but she wouldn't ever bother getting one for herself, just not her thing.

      ^_^;; I don't really have other family besides her, my aunt, and my sister. My aunt is kinda a hippie and isn't into that kinda thing (although, she laughed when my boy was in pieces all over my floor back when I was restringing XD I told her to excuse the dismembered body on the ground. She was a little disappointed it was only a doll lol!). My sister I dislike and don't really talk to, but she'd be fine with em. They are pretty cool about all the weird stuff I'm into XD

    5. My sister and I both have dolls, and I bought my mom her first doll for Christmas! Most of my family is supportive too, except for the men...who mostly don't understand the whole 'doll thing'.

    9. My sister, Christina_Xx and I are both in the hobby, started about the same time. She ordered her first doll right after my first arrived.

      My husband owns a doll, but he doesn't have an account here and doesn't really get into the hobby, he just likes having Ron hang out with him while he plays WoW and Diablo. :P

      EDIT: My parents get involved but don't own or desire dolls. My mom sews for my "kids" and my dad makes furniture. :)

    10. My 17 year old daughter enjoys the fact that I love dolls and have become obsessed with BJDs. However, her interest lies in collecting Pokemon dolls and figures as well as anime, manga, and video game figures. No one else in my rather limited family ever showed any real interest in dolls of any sort.

    11. Hujoos were my first foray into BJDs. An inexpensive way to create a passion for BJDs and incite a desire for resin BJDs.

    12. Well at the beginning I'm the one who's get my head pop into BJD, and my younger sister is the only who knows about this secret back then (now all my family members know I'm collecting doll), because I've borrow some money from her when I'm collecting funds for my first doll (KDF Luts Ani).

      At first she can't agree with what I'm doing, and she feels I'm wasting my time and money away. But who cares (I suppose a lot of members here feels the same right?). haha.....

      Now she's falling too, into world of BJD. she's already put her first doll in layaway, and very excited to see her doll come home^_^ She's like: Yay! I have a new doll coming and our dolls can actually share cloths and shoes and wigs and a lot of things! (She's buying MSD too) The rest of my family don't really agree with me, but they never opposed to what I'm doing right now^_^

    13. I wish my family was into BJD's they think they are a waste of money, though collecting other things are ok. I do have a close friend/family person that saw them and is interested in them because they are dolls and they are so customizeable.

    14. My sister likes them. She really loves puki's! Hm...and my grandmother likes them. She doesn't care for the cost though!

      My sister thinks they're ok, but shes not into it.

    16. My daughter and I both involved in the hobby. My little boy has asked for a bjd for Xmas this year. Santa will be bringing him two: a 12 cm and a 24 cm (two that seem a little more difficult for a 5 year old to break!)

    17. My husband and I have a combined crew - they actually also go along with a friend of ours. But other than friends, it's just me and my hubby in the hobby.

    18. Two cousins of mine, that are also DoA members. They're also responsible for dragging me into this hobby.

    19. My hubby and both of our sons have dolls as well as my future SIL. Hubby has an account here but is no longer active (actually he is never on that I am aware of) but if you see Grax that is him. Our boys are much too young to have accounts but they have several dolls.

    20. At first it was just me and my sister but now its me, my sister, my older brother, his fiance, and my little brother. We all have spent countless hours together talking about dolls and looking at dollie pics. Currently my sister and I are the only ones with dolls but we're helping them all find the right first doll for them. ^^
