Ok so I feel like the best way to combat the deluge of recasts is to promote more affordable doll brands, so I'm gonna give it a shot!
Here's a list of some more affordable legit bjd brands, their general price ranges, and where to buy them! All of these are complete dolls (body+head). The lowest prices listed are from their smallest sizes no faceup, and the highest prices will be largest with faceup if they offer it. Prices can vary between dealers. (Please add more if you know some, especially for outside the US!)
Also some of these upper prices seem insanely high because they include any 70cm beasts they have as well, but I mainly judged these based on the 1/4 dolls being under or around 300 with faceup, since that's typically the most popular size.
Qianhe ($70-116) 1/6, 1/5, and 1/4 male and female resin blind box bjds. Realistic style. Available on Janesdolland, and until 8/02 you can choose the head you want from the blind boxes.

Anything vintage, old Polaroid Cameras, newspapers, old photos, cds and tapes, iykyk
Keeping a book of your research, with sketches, notes, details, newspaper arrivals pasted in the book is just-
Okay- lock picking??? Like- itās such a specific hobby but it GIVES
BROOO- FLANNELS???? Like- Especially orange or brown flannels. Itās so basic but on brand
A denim jacket or bag with Cryptid patches are simple but nice
Having books on paranormal research, folklore, mushrooms, amphibians, ANYTHING about mystery solving, etc. will do
Cavetown, Mother Mother, Penelope Scott, Nirvana, are good for cryptidcore
Knitted/crocheted sweaters and socks okay-
Being interesting in coins, gardening, mushrooms, amphibians, 90ās tech, drawing, any nature based interest is also great for starting
Cuffed jeans, band t shirts, converse,

Hello, we are a OSSD system whos been for years trying to make an AU to win popularity so here we are, sharing our DHMIS AU called Missing remains
Here we go
In this AU, Roy and Lesley were married, and they were humans at first like everyone, time passed and they had Yellow guy, which name as a Human was Doi, everything was fine at first until Doi started to act cold and mean until Doi dissapeared, Lesley was worried, one day she found him in the fridge, at least what was left of him, she discovered Roy ate him, and never talked about it, Lesley confronted Roy and fought him, She grabbed a piece of glass from the window and sliced Roy's throat in anger, she realized what she did and to cope with what she had to go through, drove far away, bought an studio and made a puppet show with her husband and her son's remains stuffed in puppets which actually came to life, due to the trauma of being eaten, Doi developed a DID system, consisting of David (smart yellow), the brainfriends, and grolton & hovris introjects, Doi wasnt really aware of his disorder, but he heard them everyday, also Doi met Duck and Red in that show, which also died as humans, duck, which was called Robin in a car accident, and Red, which was called alfred, drowned, in the show they met and had feelings for eachother but they arent really a couple because they dont know about eachothers feelings, the job of david is to evade Doi knowing what his father did to him.
I hope this wins popularity since this is our dream since we were little.
NO BITCHES?

I cannot stress this enough, GO OUTSIDE. How are you gonna track cryptids if you don't actively look for them?
Get a binder so you can add pages to your research journal
KEEP TRACK OF LOCAL EVENTS. Cryptid sightings, paranormal sightings, local mysteries, ect.
Find a hagstone near a body of water, it's a stone with a natural hole through it. In Celtic folklore, when you look though the hagstone(also known as a witchstone), you can see fae folk and other worldly entities. (I did not write all the info here, please do research for yourself if you'd like to)
Explore abandoned places and look for clues. Also in forests, but be safe about it.
Also- just going on a flat roof and making blanket forts with the FLUFFIEST blankets with a lantern is just- š¤š¤
Moths.
Finds some books on this, "The United States of Cryptids- J.W. Ocker", "Cryptozoology A to Z- Loren Coleman" and "Cursed Objects- J.W. Ocker" are some good ones
Maybe find some friends who are into Cryptidcore too
But remember,
Most weird shit happens in Ohio
Update: Please check out my most recent post it's very important
I LOVE ITTT
kat doll real
Yeah I made at Kat doll lol
Iāve wanted to make a doll of Kat for a while and welp now I did
Time: 2 days
Materials I used:
The victim: Ghoulia Yelps G3 doll
Acrylic Paint
Rerooting tool (from ShimmerLocks)
Nylon hair (jungle fever from the doll planet)
Chains
Random heart necklace I scrapped for her
Bad matte sealer (Iām soon switching to msc so yeah)
Rainbow high mesh leggings and shirt (to cover up the paint shops
Shadow high shoes
Thatās kinda it lol
There are a few changes I did (belt and necklace) but thatās cuz for the belt the last one I made for my first was not good and I tried glueing tiny plat six diamonds on it and they kept falling off, so i went with chains, and for the necklace, I wouldāve used clay to make it but the clay I have is shit and it will turn to sand in a few months, so I went with this heart necklace that I had cuz the dang Chain thingy that opens wonāt open.
I like the way she turned out and just thought I share her :)
few pics while I was making her
Not much just rerooting and styling it I didnāt take that many pics
I miss my star :( I fell in love with a star last summer, but sheās only visible in the summer. Ughh I canāt wait until I can see her again. I wonder if she misses me too
Edit: I finally found out her name, her name is Gomesia Iām pretty sure (I canāt see her right now so I canāt be sure tho š)
