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 MD: May Grit and Syen- Little Guardians!

May 14, 2010

    1. I'm going to have sooo many floating heads..6
      if I get Grit & Syen. Poor things.

      7 posts away from mine in Q&A...not sure if they'll get
      to it today :-\
      Is there a waiting room yet? I really thought about
      starting it myself, but.
       
    2. Ankle jointes :D the OE head is really cute, love those little slanty eyes. Kinda wish they had normal open hands though. But they're such cute little gargolyes :)
       
    3. So good for my wallet, though I am a little sad. I do not love them! xD

      I am going to see if anyone wants to go into a split and get the little fangy Grit head and the grey teenie gem though. I do still want that badly.
       
    4. snowman has a split open, she's in the UK, and the clothes are still available :)
      so are the wig, shoes, gargoyle hands&feet, and vampire head. Ok, shameless advertising over :sweat
       
    5. ankle joints... the deciding factor on me scraping together money for the fantasy parts was ankle joints... Damn You Soom!! *fansquee*
       
    6. Well, crap.

      I HATE tinies. No I really do. I would never own any. Never ever ever.. ever... e..ver... But.. But these guys are SOOOOO CUUUUTE. How could this happen to me? There's no doubt about it, I am totally in love with Grit. I absolutely adore him, and MUST bring him home! Fullset preferably. How did this happen? Noooooooooo...

      Unfortunately, I'm already paying off two Soom dolls, I don't think I can shoehorn another payment into my month.
       
    7. Wheee I found Syen's outfit, eyes and wig in a split! So that's part of my little guardian ordered!
      Now I just have to wait for them to be released in Japan so I can order my Grit!

      I know I'm not getting the shoes, cause they're ALWAYS in their fantasy feet and those shoes aren't even that fabulous.
      I also know I'm definitely getting the wig and eyes, and faceups on both heads.
      Still not sure about the blushing and outfit though.
      I'm getting the pink outfit, there's probably no need for me to have the blue outfit too, especially as it's a bit boyish, but I haven't made my decision.
      The blushing.. I need to see it in person first. It looks like it COULD be really nice, but it also could be way too simple for my tastes.
      Do we think the body has been blushed pink as with other GS Soom dolls?

      Edit :: Oh hey they're up in Japan already yay!
      Guess this means I have to make a decision!
       
    8. Too freaking cute!!! I just ordered a Grit with the outfit. :) (no blushing or faceup) He's too perfect as my Spiritdoll Moonless' minion Panic, bwahaha. =^i^= I do think that it looks like they did a far far better job this time with the faceups than they did with the kitties.

      My first soom tiny! *squees* It's like they read my mind... *tries to hide her wallet away* I'm afeared of their next months' offering O_O
       
    9. Trouble, trouble ... I just LOVE the fanged head of Grit and wings T-T there is a split running where I caught the R head + body but I think this split will be "banned" since the host only wish for the Syen wings -_-

      I so don't want the rest of his parts ... dunno what to do !
       
    10. If you look at the knees of the fantasy parts one, and the glimpse of shin from the human one, you can see pink present, I would say it's likely the grey is blushed pink as usual.
      -
      I really want to do full set, but since I've already got two layaways going, it'd be better if I could trim off some of the excess stuff, but I adore the outfit... The greyish eyes are cute, but the wig I'm eh about so maybe I can trim a bit. The boots aren't ultra adorable, so I could probably pass on those... Curse you, Soom!
       
    11. They are just way too cute! I may have to grab later near the end of their order period.

      I thought this right away when I saw their hands, but they really resemble Haunter hands, as in the pokemon. lol It's just such a close freakin' match that I sort of want to blush Grit purple...though I think gray and purple is a good mix. >.>;; IDK...

      So tempted very much so...I may do it. I'll have to think about it. >3>
       
    12. I really love them!

      I have just ordered the cream white version. Although I like grey dolls too, for this one I wanted it to be cream white. I'll turn it into a she, and she will be my vampire/batgirl. :aheartbea

      I am not sure about the fantasy hands and feet though. So once she has arrived, I'll decide if I'll let her stay in human form or not.
       
    13. I think I'm safe.But clothe are so cute and beautifuls!!!
       
    14. I'm really not a fan of the normal human head. I've never dealt with tinies before, if I wanted to sell that head, does anyone think there'd be a market for that? Would people actually buy it? How much does one sell spare tiny heads for? It's totally alien to me.
       
    15. I'm happy they made an ankle joint with the fantasy parts this time. It's just that.. I'm very dissappointed with the cylindrical shape of the calves. Shonki&Appini's legs were just like that. They look very much like blocky columns. Hati&Skoll's parts were much more shapely and defined, especially in the calf parts. But that's just my point of view.
       
    16. People do buy them :) The going rate for the tiny heads is anywhere from $90 to $120 on the Marketplace here.
       
    17. They're so cute!
      And they have feet with joints again, it looks like~
      The wings are so cute too~

      Something about their face/open-eye shape reminds me of one of my dolls. Thank god he doesn't have a kid or I'd have to get them! xD

      I really can't wait to see them around here!
       
    18. OMG, SOOM! I love you! :D

      I'm not Soomed by their faces (although I like them a lot more now that I've seen them from different angles) but those paws! :D ANKLE JOINTS! I've already joint a split! xD
       
    19. A little while away from the pictures and looking at them again, I bizarrely think I love the R.head on the Grit in GS, but the OE Head on Syen in WS.
      I'm not even sure why! The OE head on Grit comes across as really boyish to me for some reason, and I just don't like the R.head on Syen.

      Wish I could do what I did with Afi/Ai, and find a way to order them both, but I'm just not sure I have the money for that this time!
      With Afi and Ai I ordered fullsets (minus shoes) for both of them (including faceups, blushing, and sanding on Ai). I then split off the Afi outfit and both the Ai heads. It was expensive, but I managed to make it work and am so glad I did, because my Yrie head went on the Ai body, and my msdoll Pan head went on the Yrie body. It was the only way I could make it work for both of them.

      This time, I'd really love to order BOTH Grit and Syen, splitting off the bits and don't need.. but I don't know if that would be insane or not xD
