    1. The pics loaded fine on the site for me.

      I'm safe! *does a happy dance* As beautiful as these little ones are, they just aren't for me... Although Yrie is simply beautiful, I am in love with her face, so I may need to jump in a split for that. But other then that I am safe!

    5. Honestly I'm not even sure I like the wings either.
      I mean, I like the way they look in certain shots, but when you see them just sat like in the 1st of the Alk pictures, I think they look really strange.
      Now I think about it, I'd have definitely prefered them to have wings AND arms. Definitely.

      I also do think overall, I'm facing an overall sense of disappointment considering I've been looking forward to them ALL YEAR and I'm left with a resounding "Oh".
      Will have to see how I feel about them in person, definitely.

      I know I need to get those Alk eyes (even though I won't be getting alk) cause I'm a sucker for sparkly eyes and must have ALL the sparkly eyes Soom releases.
      Yrie I'll definitely be getting because the sculpt is amazing and those EARS, but.. I really feel like I might dislike those feet... they're just TOO childish and I do not see that face in any way childish.
      BUT I told myself I wasn't allowed any human dolls.. which means I'd need to find some other Soom fantasy parts for her feet.. she'd look GREAT with Beyla's hooves with Soom's default blushing, but it's a bit late for that now!!!!!

    6. OMG I'M SAFE 8DDDD *not soomed* I really adore the wings though!
       
      #586 milodrums, Oct 23, 2009
    7. They aren't gray. My money is safe, but I actually was hoping for a gray babies. So I'm kind of sad ((

    8. i was actually hoping for one to be normal skinned :( i love the face but I'm not at all enamoured with the wings or feet. cute idea though. i wonder f they will use the wing concept for the next big one :)

    9. Yup full set twins here. *_*

      Bravo Soom for all the pictures! I'm loving the colors of Alk's outfit and their faces are just splendid! Too perfect! And oh dear those ears! Truly my favorite tiny face so far! And those harem clothes are so cute! I love them both so much already! :aheartbea

      Having one in normal skin would have been perfect especially with this desert-harem theme going on. Someone over at Soom don't like normal skin? I think the blushing would have shown up much nicer on ns. Too bad.

    10. My favourite face so far too and I love the ears! The ears are to die for!
      The clothes are beautiful too, but I'm not sure if they're really to my taste.

      Arghh.. this is going to be a tough one.
      I know I'll definitely be getting SOMETHING.. I just don't know what yet.
      The more I look at those feet the more disappointed I get so I'm going to stop looking! ::laughs::
      Will think about it later!

    11. I hope they DO use the wing concept for Galena because then I will be so safe from her.
      If they give her wings AND arms.. not so safe xD

    12. Well, after browsing through the pics I'm feeling quite relieved actually. The outfits are a no-no, so no need for those, the eyes are too sparkly for me and the wigs doesn't get me go oooh. The Yrie wig is nice, but not that nice for me to get it from a split.

      I'm wasn't that into fantasy parts from the beginning and I would stop laughing at the poor little thing if there were a little chicken on the shelf. So it's up to the mold and face up questions... The character in my mind was a mischievous boy... The eye shape is almost exact the one I had in mind, but I need a grin. Are they smiling to anyone else?

      And thenagain, I'd have preferred NS for this character...

      I think I'm saved. Not Soomed. Waiting to see your dolls in owner pics but I think I'll pass on these.
       
      #592 Shara, Oct 23, 2009
    13. am i the only one who is thinking "chicken"?
      *edit* the post above me just answered the question..

    14. Utterly soomed here :)

      It will be Yrie for me ... XD
       
      #594 Ashemanu, Oct 23, 2009

    15. Yep.. that's exactly what I see too!!
      They really aren't eagles at all.. eagles are elegant.. these are CHUBBY CHICKENS.
       
      #595 midnitestar7, Oct 23, 2009
    16. I like the outfits) And the wigs. Hope to see something like that instock someday))
       
      #596 Anch-Shi, Oct 23, 2009
    17. haha chicks then.. fluffy chicks~ ^_^ i am still bordering on whether i should split for the head and wings or head only..
      i love the eyes and mouth of the face but.. the nose is so upturned

      midnite>> you can now go back to your cooking hehehe
       
      #597 fayerie, Oct 23, 2009
    18. They're cute enough, but Beyla will do me fine. These have pretty faces, but they look pretty close to hers. I like the costuming a lot, particularly the capes. And I might actually look into buying Yrie's wig in one of the splits. Maybe Alk's eyes too-they're such a pretty color and I don't have any sparkly eyes.

      Kind of holding my breath about Galena. If I were ever to get glommed by a big MD, I'm worried she'll be it.

    19. I'm still pondering what to do, even though I said I wouldn't! xD

      Generally I'm one for fullsets and would never consider splitting parts off because I like keeping everything together, and what if I changed my mind down the road?
      But those feet, I'm not sure I can grow to like them, and even the wings too! When you look at how amazingly beautiful Yrie looks when she has her human hands on.
      Something seems VERY awkward with the wings and chicken feet and I can't place my finger on exactly what.
      So you'd say this is easy.. split off the fantasy parts and keep her human right? Except I promised myself no more human dolls, and I really don't want another human doll! I'd have to find her some Soom fantasy feet like hooves or perhaps whatever the next doll ends up being.

      It's a good thing they don't come out in Japan for a while! I have a long time to think!!!

    20. I might be Soomed. Maybe.

      I know someone has asked this before probably, but when it says:

      "Please do not sand parting line and surface of head. It will come out a bit lighter."

      ...or what have you, does that mean that the resin itself is painted white instead? O_O These dolls are made from a single, continuously colored resin, correct? I can't imagine why a company would paint resin a whiter skin tone.

      Someone, please advise! ;o;
