Ball Jointed Dolls- Thread #3

[NoDivision]

I've never bought straight from monique, I usually order monique wigs on ebay

[Vertefae]

I have! She does doll shows regularly and that can delay shipping. Send her an email and ask. She's very nice.

Monique has been around forever- and supplies sooooo many other sites and people.  She is ultra reliable even if not the fastest. I'd give her a call or send an email if something seems amiss.

I emailed them a few days ago via her contact page and I've not heard anything yet. I normally only buy them from eBay but I couldn't find the right size I needed in Ebay in the style I wanted.

Hopefully I will hear something soon. Do they have a Facebook page? I'm just so confused cause I never got a confirmation email from them or an order number. So I don't know if it even went through on their end or not.

Just popping in to share a pic of my new dolly!  A mini-machina delta!

Right now I'm thinking her name is Penny, although my girlfriend keeps throwing in other autumn themed suggestions. I've had her for only a couple days now and I've already made a wig and given her a paint job.  Is this true love?

Omg firecracker I love her. Mini machina delta is my favorite of batchix's dolls short of her first two robot boys. I love her copper/gold theme. <3

Oh and Attentborough isn't nekked anymore!

Wow your Machia is so cute! I want one! You did an amazing job with her paint- and I think Penny is the perfect name!

[NoDivision]

Deltas are the beesstttt. Here's my girl, Miri (Midori). She is easily my favorite of my dolls.

Thank you, everyone!
Nodivision - Miri is just gorgeous, and she is totally what drew me to mini-machina in the first place!  I remember frantically trying to figure out what she was months ago when I only saw a small thumbnail, you have no idea how happy I am to see the full pic

[NoDivision]

Awesome I just love how unique the mini machs are and love their proportions

[Firecracker]

I got Penny some new accessories and eyes, and a mini me!  I absolutely love what they do for her

Penny and Midori are utterly stunning dolls, I love what you have done with those girls!

[cannibalism]

as new as I am to pony customizing,  I'm even newer to bjds but I absolutely love them!! I hope to get some eventually.. those delta/blips are soooooo cute and I especially love like.. centaur ones or animal-incorproated ones...
I wish they weren't so expensive... is there any way to get around the hefty price tag!?  I'm learning something new about bjds every day and they fascinate me  I love reading about everyone's dolls here

I recommend watching the second-hand market. There are some good deals out there.

Seconding this.

I'd also recommend checking out DoA's list of BJDs under $300.
I have three BJDs and have yet to spend more than $200 on a single doll.
