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

    1. Well at least someone did ask, I was hoping Soom would say 'Yes', I so want this guy in human form.

    2. In some of the photos his neck does look a little odd, but that can happen with any doll if you're taking the picture at a certain angle. I'm sure he's proportional in real life.

    3. I think it's because he's so buff—his neck is almost the same size as the SG, but his head is much smaller. His shoulders are also wider. It has the same sort of feel as Auber's, only not quite as bad (one of the reasons I didn't get Auber was because of the head/neck ratio).

    4. I'm not sure if this is the right place to put it but....
      I'm looking at the Zinc's Special Order outfit and I really like it. This is kinda weird but do you think the outfit would work on my 60cm fantasy doll body boy? It says it can fit Epidos who is a Super Gem...that is 65 cm. I hope no one thinks I'm crazy to wonder this.

    5. Thanks for sharing! And I am now off to add another vote in Soom's inbox. I can always beg, borrow, steal...

    6. Does soom have a set period of time when doing these special orders? I mean like what they do with the Mecha & idealian ranges. Also do they take a long time to wait as the mds do or as normal dolls?

      I hope the next special order is Breccia^^

    7. I wanna see Breccia too...but I would love one more month before she is released! Lol!

    8. We still have a few more '09 MD's to go through before the 2010 sculpts (if they are going along any kind of timeline that is.)

      I'd personally still like to see them do Cass and Bix, just because they seem very under represented on here :)
       
      #368 Anneke, Jul 9, 2011
    9. I fear a Bix release, I'd quite like to see him, but like Vesuvia, he never sold overly well, and there hasn't been the same clamor for him. From their responses to some other folks, it sounded like they never planned to do rereleases of their poor sellers amongst the original MDs; Cass may suffer the same fate, although I've seen some completely stunning Cass custom jobs! :D

    10. When does soom put out the new SO's? Isit every month? Like i asked them when the next SO doll will be on sale & their answer was next month.
      But then i looked at Zinc & Aloa &Sov-Wood Centaurs Human ver, Aloa/Sov was put on sale from Jun. 23rd. to Jul. 8th.2011 and then zinc was: Jun. 28th. 2011 to Jul. 13th. 2011.
      What im confused on is! once Zinc's ordering time is finished, will there be another SO this month?
       
      #370 JrockHeven, Jul 11, 2011
    11. The Human Version of Aloa/Sov were released because a lot of people asked for them. ^^ They're out of "schedule"... But then again, who knows? Soom doesn't have a schedule anymore. XD It's jumbled up and down.
       
      #371 fransyung, Jul 11, 2011
    12. I'd love to see Bix aswell, but I wouldn't want one myself because I find his features too similar to Lazule/Lupin/Spinel et al. If they released Cass I would die... I couldn't justify owning two of the same sculpt, but I prefer normal skin, but I'm too attached to my current Cass and oh god. Her sculpt does make an excellent boy as well though, so that could work...

      Breccia has also been calling to me lately : ( just because I've seen some nice customs around.
       
      #372 Cap'nH, Jul 11, 2011
    13. I would love a SO Breccia -- but only if she comes with the large bust (and if not, depending on what Soom does with her as a SO...well, I might be swayed).

      Cass in normal skin is another I would dearly love <3

    15. OMG!! I am safeeeeeeee!! XDDD
       
      #375 fransyung, Jul 12, 2011
    16. Safe too! ;)

      I think I would like to see Bix and Breccia come up though - Breccia could make an interesting boy...^^
       
      #376 gelfling9uk, Jul 12, 2011
    17. ahh i was so waiting for a breccia, ah well i've got until the end of the month, if she's not on sale i'll have to get Dia
       
      #377 JrockHeven, Jul 12, 2011
    18. Wah... A Breccia boy! ^^ But I remember once that Victoria told me they would take into consideration when some of us requested changes of genders for some of the sculpts. Boys into girls, girls into boys. XD
       
      #378 fransyung, Jul 12, 2011
    19. Yes, they must have had so many requests for the Dia head on a male body for intance that they released Sard - Grey Velvet...but he wasn't a real Sard was he? I'm thinking he didn't have the MD pointy ears ... maybe other owners would be able to tell if there was any other difference than this with Dia/Sard :) Maybe this is what happened also with MA Saiph and Vega, originally girls that later became boy optional too! If this IS Soom listening to it's customers, I think that's really cool for them to show some flexibility rather than just a flat out NO!^^
       
      #379 gelfling9uk, Jul 12, 2011
    20. Yay Safe! i would feel guilty buying a sculpt i already have so i am in the clear this time ^-^ the releases have been nonstop recently its so hard to decide which ones to get and which ones to pass on >.<
