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.

    2. Holy crap, they're starting over? Onyx was the first SO to be released, right? I wonder if they're are going to do a romantic eye version of all of them now, starting with her....?

    3. She is pretty, so sad she is normal skin. But she could tempt me- unfortunately, although I don't want another normal skin girl, one is enough. It's my liking for R. heads that tempt me.... *sigh*. Well guess this means there will be a romantic head Heliot in normal skin one day....

    4. Nope.Anneke the very first one was Beryl,so i guess that soom will realese only the special heads minus the ones with special ears only..so the next can be IO scarface...i think so...

    6. Gah. I suppose I should be grateful too. . . strangely I'm not. I wish they'd release him so I can either get him or not, however my luck goes, and get it over with. If they do release him and I can't get him I certainly won't be looking to pay double in the MP. I have learned to do without. But the "will they, won't they" is driving me insane. *_*

    7. Maybe Bix he was not so popular and Soom decided to not realize him,same with Sphaler..and also Breccia..wondering why.
       
      #487 $abbatha, Aug 30, 2011
    8. I'm guessing that maybe Soom could realize as special order Heliot with Romantic head, and IO with scarface head, or at least this is my guessing as at this time Onyx going to SO wth her romantic head.

    9. Romantic Onyx... *whimper* Tempting! But not with this monstrous pile of layaways, no way.
       
      #489 surreality, Aug 30, 2011
    10. Aw Surr! I thought of you immediately, I have no idea why. :lol: But yes, it is definitely not awesome timing, I will hope for your sake that she follows the recent trend of SOs and takes her sweet time to sell out. And sweet is the operative word, this is my favored Onyx head as well. :(

    11. I liked the previous one, too, but there was no money then, either. The bad thing is that I -think- the project for work at the moment is going to be hung up for a few months while the company gathers things for a special release. *nosewrinkle* So it's not like I can even count on a project hitting the sales floor any time soon to make splurge funds. Granted, I am still insanely happy I jumped on Cass, because she looks so utterly beautiful in NS. I'm surprised she's lingering so tragically.
       
      #491 surreality, Aug 30, 2011
    12. I am really shocked by an SO that early in the month! And they haven't yet done all the tinies yet!
      Even though I am quite in love with the R. Onyx right now, I don't think I will be trying to get her. I am still hoping they will continue with the 2010 dolls soon (need... a... Shoshon... erm am I repeating myself?). Oh wait, didn't Heliot have an R. head? Does that mean they could do a R. human version of him? Here comes another doll on my wishlist...
       
      #492 dollblue, Aug 30, 2011
    13. Wow so quick. Again I've not been soomed unfortunately. Ah well I'll wait a bit longer.
       
      #493 JrockHeven, Aug 30, 2011
    14. Omg the romantic head is sooo beautiful! I have never ever liked Onyx welll enough to buy one, but ooo I sure wish I could. But I am holding out for a Breccia..what to do what to do...
       
      #494 Neffy, Aug 30, 2011
    15. It seemed the normal pattern with 2 releases was one at the beginning of the month and one at the end. No idea why there was such a lag in August. Unless were holidays in there or something.

      So. . . for the sake of satisfying my curiosity. . . just where would one post a plea for a special order? :wiggle
       
      #495 xtal, Aug 30, 2011
    16. Heidipay I was thinking the same thing and then had to remind myself of my severe lack of funds. Once I getDate paid off I think I'll be starting a Bix savings account. :P

      I think most people just leave their suggests/desires to Soom in their Q&A.

      I'm actually surprised Onxy is the next one considering it took her first SO run a while to sell out.
       
      #496 Cloudedmind, Aug 30, 2011
    17. Ah, thanks! :) I wasn't sure if people were emailing directly or what. :lol: I'd definitely have funds for Bix by the beginning of October. Sooner, if the September conventions go well. Of course there needs to actually be a Bix to spend it on. ;)
       
      #497 xtal, Aug 30, 2011
    18. I'm very suprised to see Onyx again so soon...! She's a beautiful sculpt and I do like her romantic head better than the open eye.

      If this is the way the SO's are going, it would be really nice to see the r.Heliot head (minus the horn hole). Maybe they would even consider the Euclase meditation head as he could be sold as a sleeping head. I would be up for these two boys for certain, broke, but up for it!^^
       
      #498 gelfling9uk, Aug 30, 2011
    19. I am absolutely there, too. ;) I love those heads so much more than the open-eye versions in both cases. The Euclase meditation head just looks so deliciously sneaky! And the R.Heliot head is utterly dreamy... and would likely land on a girl body in this house if I was lucky enough to nab one, since it's so delicate and dream-like. (It's such a shame they'll let you add a little extra to get female heads on male bodies for the normal line, but the reverse doesn't work out. :( )
       
      #499 surreality, Aug 30, 2011
    20. Yes - both the Heliot and Euclase SO's sold out quite quickly didn't they? That would make them quite popular first AND second time around, so Soom might think about releasing the R. head and med head as there would be a good chance for them to sell out again. I think if they did this I would panic! :)
