Hello again, First time owner, long time fan

Aug 31, 2024

    1. Hi everyone, I'm reposting because the last sentence of my previous post was considered solicitation of a sale, and was removed. It was not my intention to violate the rules so I removed the very last line.

      I go by Drift and I'm located in WA :)
      Since I was a teen I've been interested in bjds, and have always been fascinated by the creativity and kinship that can be expressed with these beautiful dolls. I gave up on the idea of owning one when I was young as they were too expensive for me to even dream of buying or asking family for one.

      Now about 15 years later, I have the means (well sort of haha) to get one!! I recently purchased an MYOU Michelle and am patiently waiting for delivery. The character I have in mind is a fantasy character so plan on dying and modding the doll. I also got a Doll Leaves Lan head (bc the sculpt has nice pointed ears) that I hope to hybrid with the MYOU body after modding. I also love sewing, so I'm very excited for making doll clothes too. I'm really glad to have this community as a source of knowledge and inspiration going into this project.

      My grail doll is Souldoll Henry. That sculpt is the doll that first got me into bjds and I'm still obsessed. I could remember the name of the sculpt for the longest, and was very sad to find out I missed a rerelease from last year. I'm still hoping to find the head second hand someday.

    2. Welcome! It's so exciting to wait for the first doll, I hope your Michelle arrives soon :) Souldoll has been really stumped with orders recently but they have accommodated requests for discontinued sculpts outside of releases in the past so it's worth asking them about your grail!

    3. Hey there, thanks so much! That's good info. I'll definitely give it some time if they're busy right now but I just might give it a shot and contact them. It's worth holding out hope. Much appreciated :whee:
