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 Idealian51 - London - Steam Engine Rider

Mar 30, 2011

    1. More info is up, but no price or images yet. There is a skin tone choice.
       
    2. Well, the options are up. Looks like he comes in Normal and Dark Brown skin.
       
    3. Well, it's nice that his resin upgrade is only $90, compared to the $130 and so forth that we've been seeing recently... $90 just seems like a more reasonable and appropriate price to me. :3

      /REFRESHES
       
    4. Kaorika: He's also half the size of the Idealian72, so it's actually a moderate reduction in price relative to size. He needs less special resin.
       
    5. Really, Soom? I get woken up at three in the morning by my television playing old episodes of Zelda, and still no pictures? *shakes head* Come on! I wanna see him before I go back to bed!
       
    6. True that, when you consider that he is so much smaller, it should probably be less than $90. Now when I add up what I'd buy if I did get this guy, which is Dark Brown resin, steampunk cap, outfit with shoes, and maybe wig, that already is costing $420. D: Without the doll. So yeah, I don't feel like this is costing much less than a full size Idealian... X:
       
    7. Some new info
      ?? SD size clothes? Loose is best??

      I'm intregued! :?
       
    8. Oh hey look, I was so busy refreshing the product page that I didn't notice the new bulletin that they snuck up
      http://dollsoom.com/eng/bbs/board.php?bo_table=idealian_notice&wr_id=35

      "- They can wear Volks SD male clothes. Although loose clothes fit nicely, tight clothes might be too small." <-- Awesome!!

      "- Size of the wig = 6~6.5 inch. They can wear Teenie Gem wigs as well." <-- Scary! oO I somehow wasn't expecting a head that tiny haha


      Edit: Derp. Why does the latest post only ever appear AFTER I post my post? >:T
       
    9. Teenie gem size for wig and SD size for clothes? O__o
       
    10. It looks like he'll be a chunkier version of a Vito, with some parallels to a JID. I did a quick comparison of measurements:

      Idealian JID Vito Delf
      height 51 46 52 60.5
      head 17.3 18.8 18.4 23
      neck 10 8.5 9.7 10
      shoulder 13 12 13 13
      chest 26 23.8 23.2 23.5
      waist 19.8 17.5 17.3 20
      hip 23.4 23 22.3 25.5
      thigh 14.4 13 n/a n/a
      arm l. 16.6 16 16 20
      leg l. 33.5 27.5 30 35 (I'm not sure they all measured from the same spots though)
      foot 6.9 6.5 7.5 7.3

      His chest and waist are noticeably wider, but there may be some individual clothing items that'll work in JID or Vito size. JID boys can wear smaller SD shirts, so that makes a certain amount of sense.
       
    11. His head is 7cms smaller in circumference than ID72's... and yet his neck is only two 2cms smaller.



      DARNIT SOOM WHAT IS IT WITH YOU AND THE THICK NECKS.
       
    12. we've got pictures!
       
    13. Ffffffffffffinally. *now waits 18 years for them to finish loading*
       
    14. Meh, not all that impressed with his face. I like the wig, but I'd have no uses for it in that size. :|
       
    15. OK, I'm safe. He's downright beautiful, but more in profile than from the front, to me. The eyes are a little too large for the narrowness of the face, to my taste. Long narrow face, I don't want very wide eyes, not sure why. He's downright stunning, though, and the outfit delivers on the promise of the teasers. Cheers for those that pick him up!
       
    16. I'm a little bit disappointed by his face. I liked a lot his profile on the preview picture, but from the front, I'm not so sure....
      I would be happy to see the sculpt without face-up.
       
    17. I actually quite like his face, but I'm more in love with his outfit :sweat. And that wig's faboo.
       
    18. Ick. I don't like his face at all. But his skintone, clothes, story and everything else is awesome! Not for me, but I hope everyone who gets him has a whole lot of fun with him!
       
    19. Not sure if the measurements are just an april's fools days joke XD lol

      Anyway I don't like this doll at all. Other thing with his clothing *______*
       
    20. nope, no april fools joke. He's really 51 cm :3
