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: York - Time Voyager

Mar 2, 2011

    1. :sigh I give up, I'm going to sleep. First thing I'll check tomorrow is the Soom website.
       
    2. This was the sort of scenario I was thinking of.

      Well at least you've got something nice to wake up to. ;)
       
    3. Ffffff. Really? I didn't think they ever worked that late. Well. I am def not going to stay up that long. ;; I'm going to bed in a few minutes. It's just, ugh, I KNOW they will release him as soon as I close my eyes... XD

      IDEA: Let's all pretend to be asleep, thereby fooling Soom into thinking we've surrendered the battle. Once they feel secure in their triumph over us, they'll laugh wickedly and release him right away.
       
    4. I SO wanted to be one of the first ones to yell "He's UP!!!!!" but that isn't
      going to happen, clearly. I just wish they could have put up ONE extra pic
      showing his face. They did that ages ago with Chrom...1 extra pic before
      they all went up and he was on sale. Everything is up in the air until we
      can see his face at least...I mean.....what if he's a tad off looking?
      It doesn't seem likely, but still sleep deprivation has made me question it.

      Oh well, I'll avoid posting unless by some miracle he gets put up before I
      pass out.

      edit: lol I'm game for pretending to sleep....but in my condition it may
      actually happen :sorry
       
    5. Parcelforce just delivered my head! Oh how that will read to anyone who knows nothing about dolls. ;)

      He's lovely.

      Anyway, he was packed in a lovely green box that will be my second head box since the other one doesn't have more room in it. I still intend to make him female. So, that's another Soom....

      EDIT: And still no sign of Pork/Dork/York?
       
    6. Haha yeah I'm gonna go pretend to be asleep too, minus the pretend part. :l I fought the good fight but it's 4am here and I'm too much of a pansy ass to stay up any longer.

      YOU WIN THIS ROUND, SOOM. D< *dramatic fist clench*

      See you guys in the morning! <3 <3

      ...And congrats Mirren! Enjoy your head 8D
       
    7. Have a good rest kaourika!!!!! Hopefully you'll have lovely doll candy
      to see when you get up XD

      CongratsMirren!!!!! That's way better than just getting to see a doll
      released. Look forward to seeing what you do with him!
      And WOW it's almost 6am....*shakes head @ Soom* and refreshes page..
       
    8. Thanks! I've tried out a wig and I need to look out some eyes and get it on the SG body.

      6am - you must be dying on your feet! I gave up sometime after four. There's going to be hardly anyone left here by the time he goes up.


      kaourika - thanks! I've already tried out a wig.
       
    9. By any chance did your head come from France?? Oddly enough I was
      just looking up a certain artists threads to share with a friend and came
      across a Sphaler that fit your description...big *headslap* if I'm wrong!

      Hmm if they take much longer to release him there will likely be tons
      on here...just not me...and I'll miss the added excitement of everyones
      opinions on him:...( I don't think I'll ever do this again for a Soom doll.
      Seriously what's the point. But this was kind of fun "talking" with all of
      you:)
       
    10. Yes, I'll bet it's the same head. It came from France - I bought it from an artist whose dolls and photography I really admire. And she (Sphaler) fits perfectly on the SG female body - even better than Chrom! The NS resin match is good too. I am so pleased I got this head!

      I agree about the waiting for York being offputting for future releases. Not sure I'd stay up far beyond 1am in future which corresponds to the SO release times.
       
    11. Well seems like York won't be released today. Maybe they put the wrong dates on the teaser? *sigh* I had been so excited to see him today. Well maybe someone have just forgotten to put him on sale and remembers in the middle of Korean night, jumped up and put him up for us ;).
       
    12. It would be just typical if it was the wrong day, wouldn't it!! :...(

      EDIT: It could of course be today in another time zone, rather than Korea. ;) They have global customers, they could be thinking globally. When and where does today run out? The Pacific?
       
    13. I LOVE her work too!! That's so neat you have that Sphaler, congrats!!

      Oh I know....there's no chance I could ever snag a SO, thank goodness
      these guys aren't limited to 50! Although if a SO release took THIS long
      my chances might be better lol. I've wanted an ID from way back..and
      I think York might be my one and only ID. We'll see.....whenever Soom
      decides to let us see him.
       
    14. That would be such a HUGE mistake though :...(
      I'm posting on Soom....normally I don't but this
      is a special circumstance :lol:

      too bad I can't get York out of sheer endurance/determination,
      like a prize to a person who keeps their finger on a refresh button
      the longest. *JK*
       
    15. I snagged an SO Beryl on the MP for half the price someone else was selling her for. I had only minutes to decide because I knew someone else would get to her first otherwise. Fortunately she was here in the UK. Sometimes miracles do happen!

      Apart from the ID price, the sheer size, weight of the IDs, and the amount of storage space they take up really puts me off. And I don't want my 65cm male doll looking too puny. Still, Brannon was lovely, and Pangen. I quite liked Hyperon, saw a lovely brunette Gluino or two, and this York looks very promising. I just hope this is the hour they finally put him up.

      EDIT: Just seen your post on Soom, Lula. I hope they know what the 'wee hours' are!
       
    16. I am still here fighting:) actually where I live it is 4 PM now so I have nothing to do but to be awake:sweat
       
    17. It's just after one o'clock in the afternoon here - and I can't believe that's another hour gone by and still nothing.
       
    18. maybe they meant 14 march not 4 march *nods*
       
    19. And they've spent the entire day trying to figure out how to explain it to us nicely. ;)
       
    20. :lol: Yes it's possible they won't :sweat Oh well. I guess I could
      delete it!

      As for ID's size it's definitely been a reason (besides price) why
      I don't have one yet. I came close, but just couldn't do it. But
      I have a Feeple65 Chloe coming and I would love love a more
      realistic guy to go with her and I prefer ID's over EIDs. I'm just
      sort of facing the fact that he would be for photography and to
      look at and not a doll that I would cart around with me. Too BIG.

      edit: it's been fun sitting in here with all of you, wonderful company!
      but it's time to bow out, besides I'm sure the thread is tired of me
      posting every minute:sweat Bye all!!!!
