Emerald green is one of the newest colors, so that might be a big factor in the lack of photos, as well. Emerald green was introduced during last Halloween's event, if I recall correctly, so dolls of that color resin will have only recently shipped. Also, fans who may have been interested in emerald green may not have been able to order during that time period for one reason or another, so I wouldn't say that it isn't a popular color.
I paid off my tan doll late September and just got a shipping notification on her the other day. I would email Peak's Wood and ask for an update. Chances are it is caught up in makeup but it's better to check since I did have a doll arrive with no shipping notification recently.
Wow! I hadn't notice that before, Merlin's Mom. I certainly hope they are not discontinuing Peakswoods. I think there was something in the News Thread some time ago about Peakswoods closing open ordering of all their dolls except for what they offer monthly. But, I'm not sure. Thanks Emmilmee, Im still waiting to hear back from Denver Dolls on her status. I didn't buy directly from Peakswoods.
@Merlin's Mom it might be because Peak's Woods has closed orders for some dolls and they will only offer them at events. Peak's Woods have said in the past they are having too many orders so delays have been happening. Still with delays and all my dolls with no face up only took 2 months, I feel face ups is the thing that adds to the delay by a lot. Here's last years' Peak's Woods old site notice:
HUZZA! I got a shipping notice from Denver Dolls! My Vampire Leo girl is on her way home to me! *does the happy dance* Wow! I was a little worried there for a bit because it was taking so long, but I'm a happy girl now! (Eight months is quite a stretch.) Will post photos as soon as I get her!
Thanks Merlin's Mom! I worry sometimes when these uber-long waits happen that I will lose my enthusiasm for the doll. Eight months is a ridiculously long time to wait for a doll. But, I'm still feeling really excited about getting her. It's been such a long wait, I've had all her clothes and shoes and stuff waiting for her for months! But, still excited!
@Rabbit-moon yay!!!! I'm so glad to know your girl is finally coming home!!!! Let us know what you think of her when you get her and share photos if you can~
Thank you Ellesmera! Wow! I can't tell you how relieved I was to finally hear that she was on her way! I will definitely post photos when I get her!
Thank you very much for your reply! I had no idea the emerald green colour is so new. The emerald green vampires started to arrive recently. I saw two photos of them on Flickr. The colour is so nice that I ordered my Wonder in green skin yesterday.
*Does drum roll* Tah Dah! Here she is - My darling Vampire Leo (girl) has finally arrived!!! I'm so thrilled with her! She's so gorgeous! I love her soulful eyes. (And, I love that Peakswoods give you an extra pair of hands!) Here's a close-up of her face-up. Her eyes are a deep purple.
Thank you Merlin's Mom! You are so right! The whole point of getting her was because of her cute little fangs! She is going to be Mina Harker to my Dracula (5Star Batboy). Won't that be cute? Thank you Ellesmera! I'm so happy with her. Unfortunately Peakswoods forgot to do the paint job on the fang-marks in her neck. Even though I'm not an artist, maybe i can do something about that. Thank you faireva! Peakswoods did a wonderful job on her face-up! She is my first Peakswoods doll, and I'm very impressed. She's also a great poser! Hi stellarphenomena! Thank you! I'm going to have fun putting her together. I love my little vampires!
Oh! They look wonderful, Stellarphenomena! What sculpts are they? Are they Dracula and Mina Harker, too?
Thanks! Yes, that's what I had in mind! Dracula & Mina (not a vamp). They are the OZ dolls Tin Man & Leo. (I also have Scarecrow as Alice).
