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 Gem Order Chance: Special Order - Speculation & Discussion Thread Part II

May 4, 2011

    1. I sort of thought Zinc's face would be the same as Epidos. I sure hope it is. I cant afford to put another doll on layaway atm ~_~
       
    2. That's exactly it!
       
    3. ...I didn't think about that XD. From a distance it does look like Epidos.
       
    4. Now THAT I would buy without hesitation! I think this guy might be too big for me. I got out the measuring tape and I can't imagine a doll that big to be honest (with his horsey parts). A human would be easier to handle but I really want a unicorn-centaur man. *sigh*
       
    5. yes... that's why I skipped Epidos, because of his misproportion...
      now... I HAVE to find a reason to skip Zinc too XD XD
       
    6. Good luck with that lunaria1! ;)

      Ok, I'll admit to being a bit of a Soom groupie, but for me right now, they make the best fantasy dolls out of the whole bjd market and so far, are without equal on this part!
       
    7. I agree.
      I love many kind of dolls, in many sizes. but when I think about fantasy doll, I think about soom.
      the faery serie has totally doomed me. the bigger ones, and tinies, I just admire them but I find difficult to handle them and to bond.
      but a centaur.... T_______________T
       
    8. gelfling9uk so agree with you regarding Zinc having a feel of Heliot :) I also think Heliot is breath taking beautiful :) That is why I feel so interested in this little horsey:) But sill Heliot is my love of all time :D
       
    9. I.. argh, Zinc is so pretty! I'm kinda hoping I'd hate his face now, because another layaway is going to kill my budget. OTL
       
    10. I'd intended from the start to use my Heliot head on a Chiron centaur body! I even did Photoshop mock-ups and everything. Then someone on DoA did it for real, and the head looked a little small on the thick neck... So I just put him on a Sphaler body with a pair of Heliot hooves instead.

      And now Soom are releasing a possibly Heliot-like centaur - it's almost as if they did it just for me! <3
       
    11. Aw, that's so sweet! Glad to see in your siggie that you've got your love at home with you!^^

      If Zinc were Chiron size, I'd be listing my granny for sale on Ebay right now - hehe!:mwahaha

      Notice that the listing only has face up, body brushing and eyes as options...and the time in Seoul, Korea is 10.21pm and 32seconds!^^
       
    12. Do you think he will be up tonight? My guess is they will upload him tomorrow at 10 AM Seoul Time. ^^;; The usual working time?
       
    13. Considering he is 1/4 scale I think the current baby centaurs (Minette, Pyrol, Aloa and Sov) would look a bit odd with Zinc...

      I wish that Soom release new centaur babies with long legs like real foals...

      A Nappy-Choo centaur would probably look perfect like a 1/4 scale centaur baby! XP
       
    14. Unless they're systems are set to automatically upload the information, I think we'll be waiting until the usual working time, fran.

      Now it's just a waiting game ><.
       
    15. Nappy Choo centaurs! Now that's a thought! XDDDDDDD
       
    16. I'm counting on his being available just at the time I get up, put the computer on and sit down with a cup of coffee before getting the kids off to school - that would be something nice to wake up to!:)

      I love anything to do with horses basically, from collecting My Little Ponies as a kid to The Trail of Painted Ponies figurines now. I have some things listed on Ebay (no, not my granny after all...) and if they sell before the sale period ends, I may just have to bring the pretty one on home! ;)

      Who knows!^^
       
    17. $200 for seam removal... Ouch. Guess I'll be attempting to blush his hooves myself!
       
    18. Yeah, might be better just to sand the lines off yourself if it really bothers you XD.
       
    19. the removing seam for him is outragoues i think i'll do it myself the price isnt worth the convenience this time :sweat
       
    20. I think without seam removal, blushing is okay, too. >.> I don't really mind Soom's seamlines.
