Asellus Posted December 10, 2017 Hi I'm Kathy! I've been in the BJD hobby for more than 10 years now and this year got a Dollfie Dream (I owned an Aoi DDII years and years ago...maybe 2009?) again and fell in absolute love. Although I still own my resins, there are times when I want to give them up...I find resin too heavy, never poses all that well and hurts my hands as I'm getting older. I own a Pukifee Mio, Luts Kid Delf Mango, Volks F-05 Old skin, and a Volks Kuuto YOSD. I love looking at them but never feel like doing much. Somehow in all this I got my Kagamine Rin. Absolutely love this doll. I don't have to worry about my autistic son grabbing her, it's easy to buy clothing for her (since with an autistic son, I don't have much time to sew anymore) and she's sweet as can be. I bought a DDH-05 last night who should hopefully be her complete opposite...I'm looking forward to getting her! I find that other than Mariko, I prefer the standards. I'd post a picture of my Rin but I cannot yet post pictures. Taking an extended break from any purchases to save up for Mariko! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N2DollsNow Posted January 1, 2018 Welcome to the forum! A lot of us are crossover hobbyists that arrived here from other sources. I also like the choices of the standard DDH-01 through DDH-10 custom or Volks faceup heads that can become your very own interpretation of a doll. I also started in resins, but now the DD'S out number them. Each type has pluses & minus, but the enjoyment is what we're here for. I hope we're able to help you along the way to that end!
