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. Gahhhh SOOM, why must you tempt me so?? *_* I keep telling myself "I don't want a soom doll I don't want a soom doll I don't want a soom doll..." I will have to restrain myself from clicking the 'buy now' button.. I don't have much money, gah!

      And for some reason my mom actually likes this doll? She's not too much of a BJD person, but when she saw Breccia..

      So very tempting... :|
       
    2. This is awesome. I'm so happy I'm not working on the release date. Thankfully I have money put away for her still. She looks dazzling! Can't wait to get her (hopefully) so she can be twin sisters with Arista :-)
       
    3. I am safe, so glad it's Breccia. She's gorgeous, but I just haven't been Soomed by her. The Monzo SO, on the other hand, made me realize how much I missed out, so my money is being saved to hunt for the original grey skin version. I'm happy for all of the Breccia fans out there!
       
    4. The only down side i see is the face up. It doesn't grab me but i'm not saying i won't be getting her xD.
       
    5. omg... I want breccia... she's the most beautiful soom female for me <3
       
    6. I think i'm going to wait until i see full pictures to decide because i'm now in a pickle xD. I've seen another doll that i may want :(
       
    7. I'm very glad it's Breccia this time around! Though, if I get her, she'll go on a long layaway, as I'm just not ready to receive another big girl within the next months. My incoming Topaz will need a face-up, blushing, etc., and I want to focus on giving her plenty of attention before another girl enters the house.

      If she's on the new body, that's even better! Can't wait to see all the pictures. It looks like her outfit will be very pretty as well, from what I can glimpse in the picture!
       
    8. I love her so much!! I liked her since she was released the first time, for me she's the most pretty SD female sculpt ever! If I can't get her this time I would be sooo sad!
       
    9. Seems like many people want her. I hope she doesn't sell out like vesuvia did as I really want her ^^ great timing on my tax returns ^.~
       
    10. Of course Breccia, who's probably my favourite supergem girl (topaz being a close second), is re-released at approximately the same time as Iplehouse's new YID girls. And of course they both come out when I shouldn't even be thinking about any new dolls at all. :doh
       
    11. I forgot to add~~I could be wrong but am I the only one who found the release date odd? I've never seen them give a date deadline before, usually it's just whenever the 50 sell out. When I first saw the date xxx through xxx (sorry, forgot the exact dates) I thought she was not limited to 50 and got excited because then she wouldn't sell out but then I saw limit:50 lol. I just thought that was odd.

      Does anyone know, just out of curiosity, if let's say only three dolls sold for the 50 limited, would they still produce them? I always wondered because they always had a set of 50 if making the doll under a quantity of 50 was not financially worth it for the work put into the mold and would loose money or something
       
    12. I think they still would do it, because it's a handmade process, isn't it? And the only special thing is the head, casting a few breccia heads can't be so bothersome. I don't think they need to make so many of them to be worth it, when you order a basic doll for example, they do it only for you.
      But still, I'm pretty sure they'll sell all of them, since it's a mold so popular.
       
    13. I think the deadline is needed just in case she's not sold out. ^^;; They don't want to prolong the time, so they can start making the dolls after the deadline ends, no matter how many dolls were sold.
       
    14. Imo breccia will be sold out in a blink of an eye :sweat
       
    15. Don't say that!! Shhh! :...(
      I really don't want a repeat of vesuvia but it does seem that way!
       
    16. Wow..Brecca! I love her face..but without the fantasy parts I am safe! I like fantasy dolls..wish she came with her original fantasy parts..then I would be in trouble!Maybe its a good thing she doesn't...LOL!
       
    17. :sweat ok ok i won't say it again!
       
    18. I can't wait to see the clothes!
       
    19. Why does my internet have to crap out when Breccia is finally gonna go on sale again! NEED THIS GIRL!
      I hope I can get one :D
       
    20. Just a few more hours until she goes on sale... I'm most excited to see her outfit :) And excited to see what a traditional Soom sculpt looks like on the new body. The Beryl didn't work for me because there was too much of a color difference in the resin. Hopefully this will look a bit more natural. I'm also crossing my fingers for a good price point for her, since that will set the tone for the standard releases utilizing the new body moving forward.
