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.

    3. Oh Cass *sigh* you make me wish I collected girl dolls.
      She looks like she's going to be a stunning release, can't wait to see the rest of the pics :D

    4. Yes, someone else pointed that out, as I'd forgotten. But so far he's been the only one and was one of the first SO's released. Soom could certainly do it again in the future, but it looks like they've moved away from that with ever other SO. Admittedly I'm not to familiar with the tinies, and what colors they were originally released in and if Soom has done alternate colors for them.
       
      #444 Cloudedmind, Aug 16, 2011
    5. So far, for the sculpt re-release SOs, the tinies were all originally white skin (except for bygg, which was grey), and the SOs were all NS.

    7. Oh, I am so terribly torn lol. I have a Cass and she is my absolute queen, I love her so much, but I just prefer NS so much more. The natural thing to do would be to sell her and upgrade, but then I look at her and am like... ;_; youareneverleavingmylife. I never wanted to go down the route of owning two identical sculpts, but... it's CASS :O I have WS hooves for her as well which I had big plans for, so there's another spanner in the works.

      What a difficult life~

      I can see I'm going to love how they styled her, Cass has always been a natural redhead and always will be 8)

      edit: I'm just going to leave this here
       
      #447 Cap'nH, Aug 16, 2011
    8. I need that wig! D: I don't hope her outfit is just at perfect as the wig! ...

      She looks so much different from the WS Cass x'D funny... So cute and... plumb? XD
      I'm really looking forward to more pictures :3

    9. Wow, she's up on-sale, I thought there'd be more chatter. :sweat

      .hlp

    10. oh wow, she's absolutely GORGEOUS. Makes me wish I had the funds(and room) for another SD doll. I might need her outfit though...
       
      #450 MagnaStorm, Aug 17, 2011
    11. Congrats to those that were hoping for a Cass release! :)

      As for myself, I do feel a little dissapointed...I was hoping to see something 'WOW'! :sweat
       
      #451 gelfling9uk, Aug 17, 2011
    12. I -love- her outfit! D: I am not allowed to love any more things!!!
       
      #452 oyashiro, Aug 17, 2011
    13. They've styled her nicely, but I'd be interested to see her in a different sort of wig and outfit. She has one of the more interesting female Soom faces.

    14. Well, after sending so many messages to Soom about whether Cass was going to be released, and so many replies of 'No intention, but will send the idea on', she's finally been released!!

      I have to say that I'm rather disappointed in her really. Her make-up seems very bland and unoriginal - actually, it's like a rather washed out version of her MD face-up but with darker lips and narrow brows. It just seems odd because it doesn't fit in the with cabaret theme they have going with her - more reds and exuberant colours would fit well, me thinks.

      Unfortunately, despite wanting another Cass to be the exuberant harpy counterpart for my serene sea siren, I'm going to have to pass. Financial issues arising and such. It's a shame because I know the perfect face-up artist who would work wonders for Cass.

    15. Hmm, i really wanted to buy a doll-i've got the doll buying itch but soom why cass!
      No offence to soom or the people who wished for a resale, but i so wanted a breccia. I guess i'll have to wait a bit longer.
      But doesnt soom normally put two SO's out on sale? I doubt the next one will be breccia, it could be a guy next.
       
      #455 JrockHeven, Aug 17, 2011
    16. I don't think they will do Breccia until they have finished a SO for all their previous dolls. They haven't done anything to suggest they'd start on the 2010 lineup until then, so we can probably cool our heels and wait for another round of tinies, maybe Bix, etc.
       
      #456 Anneke, Aug 17, 2011
    17. Hmmm, Bix, and Sphaler, too. Somehow I don't think they will finish releasing all the tinies before going over to the 2010 dolls, though, because they would have to release like six tinies in a row then. I get the feeling they have been picking up pace in the last time, too. So we might see Breccia sooner than we expect ^^

    18. I have a feeling Alk/Yrie are on the horizon, they seem to be very popular, and I'll be there with cash monies because I am a tool >:( I would love a little Yrie, especially after my first encounter with Soom tinies last weekend. x_x Breccia would be tempting too, but now that I'm bringing home Cass II I'll probably pass on another big girl for a while.

      I know what you mean about the faceup, it is basically a less stylised version of her MD default, down to the eyeliner. I feel like it's attempting to look "sassy" particularly with the eyebrows but kind of falls short. Although I never liked the original MD default, but once I saw it in person I loved it!

      Anyone who's thinking of going for Cass totally should btw, you won't be disappointed, she's so soulful and versatile.
       
      #458 Cap'nH, Aug 17, 2011
    19. Oh, so the next SO is Cass... *stares at her pics on the SOOM site* She'd be such a beautiful boy. LOL!
       
      #459 Genesblues, Aug 18, 2011
    20. They've been putting out two, one around the first week and one around the last week of the month. Since Cass fell in the middle I'm inclined to think they won't release another one this month. Not that there's much left to this month anyway. :lol:

      If they rereleased Bix they could cast him in normal skin. . . since their current NS resin is nothing like Bix's vintage. :XD:
