1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Soom Aloha and Sob

Apr 29, 2011

    1. @Echo
      You could always pick up an teenie gem body second hand and dye it to match the head, if you're into modding. If you aren't, I also think that there's a company (I want to say DIM??) that can cast bodies to match resin... At least, I think so... maybe it was even in this thread :XD: I'm not sure anymore. :P

      @Arioch
      I actually thought that Sov was CW before they posted both photos. It looks to me like its a relatively pale green; like I said, I didn't even think he was actually green at all. I kind of think we won't get any comparison photos, not unless a bunch of us ask Soom for some. Which I might. :)
       
    2. That's a good idea! I might end up doing that, thanks so much :)
       
    3. Aw, too bad about the elf ears on the human versions. :( But in a way I am sorta relieved 'cause I don't think I can afford Sov and one of their new minis, lol.

      And personally, when I think of them releasing more than one human version I don't think it is because of green skin, but just that there could be a boy and a girl version. Sort of like how we got both a NS Glot and a NS Glati special order, and how despite Bygg & Beyla being gender neutral as MD's they have recently released a Bygg NS human boy (and I think we might get a NS Beyla human girl later). And if they say no elf ears for sure because they are human . . . well . . . humans aren't green anymore than they have elf ears. :lol: But who knows with Soom! ^_~
       
    4. I've made a request on Sooms Q&A board to see the two side by side to get an idea of the green resin. I hope they can do it!
       
    5. AirimirOfGondor, that is definitely a thought, thank you. I'll just have to decide before the sale is over if I love him enough to go through the steps in commissioning/modding a body. ^^
       
    6. I believe that Angell Studio will also do a resin match. :) You could ask them about green resin.
       
    7. No elf ears on the human version? Okay, saves me money ^^.
       
    8. No elf ears? It will save me money then too. I wanted the elf ear head on a human body in green resin, which it looks like many people wanted here as well.
       
    9. I hope they change their minds! It seems like everyone wants the human body with elf ears. Hmm.... How can we change their minds?
       
    10. Bombarding their Q&A board ^^.
       
    11. I hope they give us comparison pictures. I think I'm going to need to see that before I can decide on which one to order. ^^
       
    12. Lol! Nothing like fan spam in the Soom Q&A to win them over.
       
    13. Dangit SOOM...why must you have such adorable centaurs...when I have no extra cash to spend!! :(
      I wish I had future vision because the centaurs suit my character better than a unicenta. (I have no need for the horn). *SIGH*
       
    14. Yaaay I paid for my Aloa today! I has a centaur! But now, the wait. *plops down* XD
       
    15. Congrats bronzephoenix! I'm might follow soon after...... Gah! Soom! Why?!?!?!
       
    16. I am horribly tempted by Sov. I can't help but think how stinkin' cute one would be next to my little blue Taco girl...I fear there will be ordering shenanigans in my future. lol
       
    17. Got a reply from Soom, they're going to take a picture of the two side-by-side to see the colour difference for me on Monday and send it to me. I've asked if I can post it here once I have it (assuming they don't post it on the site) so we can all see the colours next to each other!
       
    18. Thanks for that Arioch, I look forward to seeing the comparison (as we all do xD ).

      I only wish Soom would make a decision on the green skin for the human body, the wait is killing me. I just don't know if I should put Sov on order or not, since at this point I don't think I'll go through all the work and extra $$ to commission a company for a green body.
       
    19. I'm with you Echo. Commissioning for a green body just sounds to time consuming. But I don't know how well the green Centaur body will sell.
       
    20. Ok people... do you think we should make some presure to soom to ask for a elf human green Sov? Maybe we could do some sort of list of people asking for this (like including our Soom or DoA membership) and post it in the QA of soom?

      What do you think?
