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/OCT] Phonolus โ€“ Rauco of Fear

Oct 4, 2011

    1. fairyspit aww thanks so much!
      Wow for long time I thought Mega Gem and ID had identical bodies :doh
      Im glad MG is a bit "smaller"! XD
       
    2. They are in fact a lot smaller compared to the Idealian. If you like I can make a pic of my Ender and Gluino in the afternoon.
       
    3. But they weight the same, it seems? MG's are up there as being 100 g heavier than Idealians, is that true? (Man, Idealians are a right handful with their unwieldily weight of a chubby infant...)
       
    4. Ereskigal Yes that would be great - naked preferable :))!
      And yes I would also love to know if they weight the same like Lelite says :)!
      Thank you in advance, Ereskigal
       
    5. Ok here are the pics. I've undressed them a bit. I didn't had the mood to undress Ender completly, as these tiny parts are a pain in putting on and off. Forgive me. And well Gluino has a Blushing in ehm certain places *cough*, Ender is still unblushed.

      You see Gluino is a lot bigger than Ender, although their bodies have a very similar shape.

      @ Weight
      I didn't weight them, but Ender is a lot lighter than Gluino. I can carry around Ender for a while, and he is much easier to handle in any ways. Gluino is so heavy, that even undressing and dressing him is a pain for my arms (and I'm not weak there).

      Although I love the Idealians more than the Mega Gems, they have a perfect scale in any way and are easily in sewing clothes and making patterns ^^- the Mega Gems are nicer if you want to play with your dolls. They aren't so much different from the Super Gems in that in my opionion.
       
    6. Ereskigal would you also be willing to switch their heads? I'd love to see how they look on each others bodies.
       
    7. Sorry no. It's too difficult with the Idealians, and well I have never tried to use the brain of the Idealian on other bodies. But the Soom store or Soom, I didn't know for sure anymore who did it, had swapped Ender and York in Spring. The pics still must be out here somewhere. Guess in the York and Ender threads.
       
    8. Thanks Ereskigal for the comparison photos! (fans self...)
       
    9. I think I just made my mind up about which colour to order, judging by the NY COM COn pics the tawny is just too gorgeous to resist. I just need Soom to OK my request for a 5 part layaway :sweat
       
    10. Ah, thanks anyway.
       
    11. ereskigal - thanks so much for your Idealian and MG comparision picture, so interesting - honestly had not realised the size difference between the 2 :)

      joining this thread as 98% certain getting Phonolus - fantasy parts, tawny skin, that outfit - all fab! 2% hesitant as not certain over his unsymetrical face (or is this just me?) the eyes seem to be different sizes and the fantasy ears, one seems to be higher that the other ?? saw this the day the pictures were released and I now cannot stop seeing it (other Soom heads have been like this too) @_@

      Other wise - perfect! my Chrom mix/match has been sidestepped (sorry Chrom! lol)
       
    12. Soooooooooooooooom I hate you! He's to die for!!! He's exactly as I imagined a character in a book i read and had decided that i wanted a doll to name after him *bangs head on desk*

      *wallet runs away, cowering in fear*
       
    13. ladyemrys - which book is that? :) poor wallet, you'll need to tempt it back with cookies ;)
       
    14. Haha yeah I had to jump on this boy. I haven't been tempted like this by a doll for a loooong time. I had to sit down and rethink my plans and rethink the things I wanted and such... Decided I like him more than my other options (NS Heliot or tracking down a Zinc to hybrid) and got him on a layaway! I'm intending to try and pay it off before the 4 months, but I have the time should I need it.

      Loooooooove this doll! I'm getting him in WS to shell my character, Nash. <3 <3
       
    15. :lol: ahhhhhh i am loathe to admit this but it's a nora roberts trilogy called Morrigan's cross. He looks exactly like i imagined the vampire Cian to look... ;) great idea about the cookies!
       
    16. Guh. Soom. This is the first time I'm contemplating the purchase of a fantasy part MG. Usually, I just get the human body version of the MD dolls. I really, really, really like the claws and the monster legs.
       
    17. Sigh. I'd hoped to pick him up... and totally forgot about the time difference earlier in the day when I went to order. He's sold out now. *facepalm*
       
    18. Perhaps Soom will make an exception for a valued customer. ;_; Remind them about how much money you've thrown at them over the years and this time you just had a delayed money throwing reaction. :P
