Pipos just posted an announcement about special group orders. You can order any of the new basics in any of the 4 colors, white, mint, beige & grey. But this special color request/order but be done in multiples of 3. So if you want a Rooney in grey then you must order 3.
Ooh, now there's a possibility-- Wonder if I should put up a feeler for a group order! Sparrow -- My white Rooney - lesseee... I bought him secondhand in the beginning of 2009. He's been outside for meets and "barefoot-bunny" photoshoots, never fully dressed, since then. This pic below was taken in mid 2011. Compared to the white of his albino eyes, he has changed color. But it's not a definite yellow, or a green, just a shift towards pale ivory-white rather than paper white. He still photographs very white. And I just checked him in person. Poor bunny - he's actually more dirty than anything, from all the fields and dirt I keep sticking him into! And he did a face plant recently that chipped a tiny spot on his muzzle. Time for a good cleaning and touch-up! edit: I changed the photo choice above - this is the orig. photo, taken on an overcast day last October: Ignore the text part. This pic might show the ivory tone a bit better--
By the way I asked DDE if they would be selling the new Pipos line and they said they would if demand was high enough. So anyone who uses DDE, please request the new series!!
I went straight to DDE when I heard there were new basics available but I didn't see any sign of them, so I just ordered directly from Pipos. I'm sure there would be plenty of folks that would be interested in ordering some of these dolls and I do hope they will carry them for you, Sparrow! There is currently a new one being offered now, haoii. You can see it here: http://piposland.com/index.php My Rooney's status changed and he's now shipped. I'll try to post a pic here after he arrives.
I ordered the new Pipos Rooney with the face up and she has already shipped! I wanted a Rooney for so long so I'm super excited!
I LOVE the Rooney with the new faceup...I really want to order one, but I also want the Cheshire Cat! Maybe I'll save until I can order both at the same time, lol.
My Rooney arrived, I love her! If anyone would like to see her box opening here is the link: http://www.denofangels.com/forums/s...is-Home!-(PIPOS-Rooney)&p=8818376#post8818376
I just went to check her out, Lady Kanna - great pics! Mine arrived yesterday, too, but I'm so slow about taking pics - glad you did, so that others can see how precious this new Rooney is. Don't you just love her face-up?! And those frog shoes are truly wonderful, too! Have fun with yours, Lady Kanna! And thanks a bunch for posting those nice pics and the link to them above - I really enjoyed seeing them!
Adorable pics!!! She looks so cute with her little froggy shoes and the picnic dress! Makes me want one even more...thanks for sharing
Cattwo-Congratulations! I hope you post photos soon, I would love to see yours! What did you name your Rooney? ♥_♥ Thank you so much and yes, I adore her face up! BarBGirl1999-Thank you! You should get a Rooney, I don't think you would regret it!
Thank you for the congrats, Lady Kanna! I hope to take some pics very soon and I'll be sure to post them here. I named mine Parsley. Well, I've seen a number of Rooney bunnies and this latest one is my favorite, so I'm glad I waited to get one. If you love the face-up on this one - go for it, Riverbear! She's sure to make you happy!
Too bad the open duration for the alternate colors group ordering is so short. The group order someone's running for the mint and beige is going good, but it doesn't look like anyone but me is interested in one for grey. Ah well, hopefully they'll run some kind of special later on in the year.
Looks like I may be going for a mint AND beige Rooney in the group order... It's too hard to decide between them :p
