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.

    1. Magna, I'm sure there will be some hooves flying around the secondary market after she comes out and people who didn't split realize they don't want the hooves. :) Though her face sculpt doesn't seem to be going over to well as it is and I wonder how many of this lady are going to sell anyway...

    2. *laughs* Well, if they get too daring in their design the doll may not be on topic. Better to pick something safe. ;)

      Although, really, a water buffalo? One of the most ill-tempered creatures on the planet?! After myself, of course. *geh, heh*

      I wonder how those eyes would look in Miguel. . . :wiggle Not that I really want to spend $30 on eyes, but they are unusual.

    3. If i do get her(I hope) I might sell her animal bits, but who knows i might end up liking them
       
      #443 sunnysailor, Jun 21, 2010
    4. yeah, I'm placing all my hopes into the secondary market c:
      I really like her face, it's so different from what Soom usually makes, so I'm really sad that there might not be too many of her around ):
       
      #444 MagnaStorm, Jun 21, 2010
    5. So, she's listed as being 68cm. Is she a taller Super Gem than normal? I thought they were 65cm. If she is taller, then I may need that body....
       
      #445 sixpence668, Jun 21, 2010
    6. Usually, the 68cm height is in the fantasy feet, I believe. ;)
       
      #446 surreality, Jun 21, 2010
    7. I'm asking them, just to be sure, but, yeah, that's what I was thinking. Boooooo!
       
      #447 sixpence668, Jun 21, 2010
    8. Awww I really love her! And usually I'm more into Soom's boys, I think my only female MD I really loved was Cuprit (and Amber, but I've made her a boy. O.o)... and now, Coquina.
      Hooves are my favorites from Soom's special parts, and I was looking for my Chalco's mate. Not very innovative, but... it's just what I've been looking for. Tan (Bronze) + Hooves + Horns. :3

      Her dress is not so pretty, but I do like her shoes. I agree that Soom has done much more interesting dolls, but I just do like her a lot. Maybe she'd look great in one of Cass' dresses? And the face-up is pretty boring, but I bet she would look amazing with a more elaborated one.

      My boy's Coeus, the titan from Greek mythology... so I might make her Phoebe if I manage to get her! She's really really adorable!
       
      #448 Abel, Jun 21, 2010
    9. Hmm, I like her a lot, though she is sorta uninspired -- looks a lot like a female Chalco to me! But, to Soom's credit, its been awhile since there's been a hooved big girl. And how nice to have some girl sized hooves in NS now! How awesome would it be to have a NS hooved Beryl. ;)

      Thankfully, I am safe though. SG girls are just too big and unwieldy to pose for me -- I learned my lesson with Cuprit, lol. Back to stalking the Faery Legend! xD

    10. I think so,even if on soom web site it reads that :
      Supr Gem Human Type Coquina (68cm)
       
      #450 $abbatha, Jun 21, 2010
    11. Yeah, this greatly confuses me. Maybe someone at Soom was just confused?
       
      #451 KittyFields, Jun 21, 2010
    12. oh well let's see how many ended up buying her, i'm not such surpriced, but not pleased...the skull and horns are amazing anyway...
       
      #452 $avage, Jun 21, 2010
    13. Or simply sixpence668 is right about the body..Coquina came with a talller body...
       
      #453 $abbatha, Jun 21, 2010
    14. I din't notice maybe her hooves are a bit taller?
       
      #454 $avage, Jun 21, 2010
    15. How tall is Cass, because on her page it said the same thing, 68 cm, so i think it has to do with the hooves

      EDIT: It said the same thing on Amber's page
       
      #455 sunnysailor, Jun 21, 2010
    16. Wow, I can sum up this new MD in one word.....Eh.

      She doesn't do a thing for me....not even the hooves....and I usually LOVE hooves. Like its been said, she too boring....and her face is too birdy for me. Well, so far this month SOOM will not be raiding my wallet.
       
      #456 gwenithcoy, Jun 21, 2010
    17. I definitely want to get her in tan. I know her parts are like Chalco's, but he's a dude. I'm way more into the lady dolls, even though he's gorgeous. :lol:

      I think she's one of those that is going to surprise people when they see custom versions. Even a different wig and eyes are going to make a world of difference with this girl. I'm not a fan of Soom's glittery MD eyes for the most part. Pop some high quality eyes with a lot of depth in there, change the eyebrow shape to something more dramatic, add some more eye makeup/shading and bam! Totally different doll.

      A tan MD girl has been on my wishlist since I passed over Deneb, and frankly, the Super Gem size is easier to manage.

      Of course, a normal skin one could be useful for making a hybrid with the new NS Beryl! :D
       
      #457 *Sara*, Jun 21, 2010
    18. She's cute in tan, but I don't think she's cute enough.

      I wonder why Soom took so few pictures of her hooves. Despite not having wanted hooves, I really like the look of these, but... can barely see them. Only one half decent picture!
       
      #458 rhiella, Jun 21, 2010
    19. I asked Soom for more photos of the hooves and faceup. I looove her face, as I'm not a huge fan of past female MAs, but I'm sort of iffy on the hooves. Plus, it'd be difficult to split off the hooves if I bought her in tan like I want to. :/

      The water buffalo thing is so cute. Who would've thought that a doll company would draw inspiration from one. Too bad they didn't do some sort of Thai national dress.

    20. I'm just grateful that she doesnt strike my fancy.... i was a little bored with her because i've been so spoiled with all the over-the-top stuff they've done.

      I was all worried I'd be eating ramen noodles for a month.
