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 Idealian 51 Discussion

Mar 4, 2011

    1. I am having a hard time deciding on the color. I like the color transition of the Tawny/Brown but I think l may now have a spare NS body as I can't contact the faceup artist that has one of my heads. So I would have a human body for the NS/WS. I have an outfit in shades of brown would look good on the NS. Soooo hard to decide!
       
    2. I know..:sweat So hard do choose color. I had problems choosing while I did the order but I ended up with the brown skin after all.

      I think a normal skin body would look pretty cool with a brown skin centaur body. If we have had that option I think I might have gone for that combination.


      I'm so excited :) This is the first doll I have ever ordered from SOOM. How long is the waiting time usually for limited SOOM dolls?
       
    3. Soom usually takes 2.5 to 3 months from the final payment.
       
    4. Ohhh, that does not sound to bad for waiting time :D
       
    5. Oh thats good :) Then meanwhile I can start to save up money to order my RSLT KDF An.
       
    6. I get all itchy looking at him I must admit, he is just so gorgeous. I'm going to wait for a centaur with pointed ears though, that was really my last straw in order to stop spending. Congrats to everyone for their orders, I'm excited for you :D!
       
    7. Does anyone know the link to the preorder? I still haven't figured out how to navigate Soom's website :atremblin
       
    8. I'm still speechless. All I can think of is...Why Soom?!!! :...(

      This preorder is crazy! I'm not usually into centaurs or mythical creatures and he has grown on me. And Hornblend human! Too many decisions. Not to mention trying to decide on colors! Why!!!!

      On a more rational note, Nancy I'm so sorry to hear about your normal skin head. That's just terrible! Maybe you can find the artist on another forum or maybe someone knows the person personally? I've had this happen to me a few times with commissions for clothes. Eventually they got back to me, though one took over a year! The times it's happened to me have been because of medical issues and one time the seller lost the password on her account. Don't give up. I can't imagine how heart broken you must feel. Especially since its so hard to find just a head. I hope you hear from the artist soon!
       
    9. Um, have anyone done a KDF centaur and Idealian51 centaur comparison before?
       
    10. I think I've finally decided on the centaur in Tawny/BT with the extra legs and feet. I am still hopeful on recovering my Hornblend head. I may contact Soom and see if I can get a replacement. Then the original head will probably show up!

      mamabusama, maybe someone on the KDF thread could provide a picture with a JID. Then with the picture earlier in this thread, you might get an idea of how the size compares. The KDF centaur boy is less realistic.
       
    11. Well, I do have a KDF centaur at home. So I will be able to do a comparison my self once I got my Hornblend centaur home.

      I just hoped I could find another comparison before I get my Hornblend centaur home. I'm trying to figure out if I should keep my KDF centaur or not. It is less realistic like you said. And I kinda prefer the more realistic and mature type.

      Yeah, I guess I could try to ask on the KDF thread as well.

      The Tawny and BT is beautiful. Did you order yet? Hope you get your Hornblend head home.


      Oh can't wait to get him home :whee: Can't wait to make him part of the fantasy family I'm currently working on. Have a little TDF Louistaur who needs a daddy :)
       
    12. I did order him this afternoon in Tawny/BT with the extra human legs and the extra hands which means I'm also getting the lance and shield. I think I'll give those to another doll! They don't fit in with my plans for Hornblend!
       
    13. Oh! You have a lot of centaurs! This will be only my second! I have a TG Sov.
       
    14. Oh congrats so much :) I also think the lance and shield would look great on a human doll. Even though the background story for the Hornblendtaur is pretty cool, I still can't imagine a horse character with human weapons meant for a human soldier.


      Thank you so much :) They look pretty cool together.
       
    15. I hope SOOM start shipping soon..
       
    16. Looks like mine have shipped. Just got an email with tracking number :)
       
    17. My centauer is already in the customs... Now waiting for the letter so I can fetch him there. Hopefully the letter comes before friday =___=
