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. No news yet on the Hornblend. Maybe now that Zak and Ebony sales are closed they will think about Hornblend. We should all send them a message asking about him! Soom does listen to collectors, but it takes more then one asking!

    3. Some of the wide-necked or stretchy Souldoll Vito tops will work. This is my London wearing one of those:

      Loose-fitting or sleeveless JID tops might work, but I've found that anything with sleeves (or that's fitted) is too snug. Pants are similar - anything tight won't close (and some won't even go up over the hips).

    5. OMG finally I found the Centaur doll of my dreams and in just the right colors :celebrate And YAY no transparent parts!

      I currently own a Luts Borytaur. But what I really dreamt of was a more realistic and mature looking Centaur. One that would look good together with my JID dolls.

      Words can't describe just how excited and happy I am! I am so ordering him :aheartbea

      I am tempted to order him with the outfit an lance set. But I'm not sure if I really should. I don't think I'll actually use the set much..

    6. After the one that was listed on the Idealian site, I was expecting a human version! I like the Centaur body but I'm not sure where I would put him! so
       
      #406 nancy_schroeder_ca, Aug 2, 2014
    7. I have read that the human Idealian body is 51 cm high (haha surprise XD). So the centauer body of Hornblend will probably have the same hight, right?

      Sry for this noobish question but.... I am a noob ;)
       
      #407 Sturmhornisse, Aug 2, 2014
    8. He may be a bit taller. The first Idealian 51 centaur, Zinc, was listed as 52cm.

    9. Ahhh, I see! Thanks for the information :D
       
      #409 Sturmhornisse, Aug 2, 2014
    10. Anyone who have a picture of Zinc next to an IH JID boy or girl? I'd very much like to see a comparison. But other dolls that is similar in height to the JIDs is fine to :)

    11. Yes I do:

    12. Apokripha Thank you so much :) Wow they look really cool together<3 Now I want the new Centaur even more :blush

      My plans is to make him a part of my future JID, KID and BID family. I just love how realistic the Idealian51 horse body looks. The best Centaur BJDs I've seen so far!


      A little question for anyone who can help! I'm unsure if I want to order my Hornblend - Royal Guard with the outfit. What clothes size would be best to go for?
       
      #412 manabusama, Aug 2, 2014
    13. I wish they would release more idealian51 boys, I really want one(the body is just perfect)!
      They are sort of event based releases, right? If I have understood the idealian homepage correctly the only have events like once or twice a year... I hope I don't have to wait long.

    14. Although I thought I'm not a centaur-doll kind of person, Hornblend the Royal Guard has lured his way into my heart...:aheartbea He's the most handsome centaur doll I've ever seen. If it weren't for the teaser pics of the new Chrom-release I would have ordered him already. :3

      But yeah, seriously, are there so few people considering to get Hornblend? I think he's so awesome! I understand there has been a former release of a Hornblend centaur, but sadly I can't find any owner pictures of it...
      But yeah, if that new Chrom proves to be nothing special (although... a tan Chrom is ALWAYS something special to me ;__; ) then I'll get myself a Hornblend-horsey. :3 That horse body is really the most beautiful centaur body there is from any BJD company in my opinion!

      *edit* Oh yeah, and I'm with you, jeimsi! I'd really like a human Idealian too! If only they'd offer human legs for Hornblend...

    15. Well, I just did it! I was really looking forward to Soom's release of Hornblend and so disappointed that he is a horse, with no human option, that I wrote my two-cents worth on their user opinions. What a tragedy this is .... he is gorgeous (although I liked the original Hornblend better but never see that one on MP in human form). I wonder if Soom will add human option? They have listened to their customers in the past so hopefully they will this time. It's not like they have to sculpt an entire new body ....

      I believe that if more people got on Soom's website and requested a human option for Hornblend, there would be a better chance of it happening.
       
      #415 Tangier, Aug 6, 2014
    16. Soom released a human version of Hornblend with a choice of skin colors!

    17. I'm so happy for the Hornblend release :) I did not know before recently a realistic centaur like that existed.

      I got the Luts Borytaur back when he was released. Getting a male centaur to me have been important. I was happy with him for a while then I could not shake off the feeling that he was to stylized for me.

      I'll be ordering the tanned Hornblend centaur sometime in the end of the order period. I just have to save up the money for him by then. I really want him! I'll order him with full blushing, wig and eyes. I don't care much for the lance, shield and outfit.


      NioSpica I'll be getting the tanned Hornblend centaur. I'll do my very best to save up the money for him. I just can't miss out on this chance to get the centaur doll of my dreams<3
       
      #417 manabusama, Aug 9, 2014
    18. @ manabusama Hopefully you can save up for him.... Could not pass on him as I like centaurs as well. Ordered 2 days ago (and I am already worried if everything will work out fine) >____<
       
      #418 Sturmhornisse, Aug 9, 2014
    19. Congrats so much with your order :) I'm speechless how beautiful he is. My Luts Borytaur never became more than a shelf decoration. I know the Hornblend centaur won't. He is just what I've dreamt of all this time<3

      I'm pretty sure that when you get him, he'll be so beautiful that your worries will be all gone!


      I think I should be able to order him by September the 15th. However because of him I'm a bit frustrated that yet again I might not be able to work on completing my basic BJD wish list :sweat
       
      #419 manabusama, Aug 9, 2014
    20. Indeed he is really pretty on the pics. His horse body looks so awesome. I am really a fan of the more realistic look of the body.

      Ah thanks for the heads up :D

      Is the order for him really opened till September the 15th? On his order page on soom it says it will already end in August >___<
      But maybe I am mistaken you should check it.
