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 Monthly Doll Jan 2010: Chalco - Forest King

Jan 22, 2010

    1. As much as I love his mask and outfit - the face does nothing for me. So I'm saved this time! ^^V
       
    2. This is going to be one doll I'm going to regret not getting. I can feel it. But there's no way that I'm going to find 1000$ in 2 weeks to spend on a doll.

      I'm actually not sure if I like the hooves or not. I was expecting Amber hooves, but those hooves never were my favorites, so even if it looks like they improved them (it looks like he can sit decently, unlike Amber), I'm still very unsure about them.
       
    3. Wah! Just made my first of 4 monthy layaway payments. Just the tan doll, blank. No bells or whistles. Maybe he'll be here in time for summer vacation so I can play with giving him a faceup and blushing.

      I just love his lips and eyes. He reminds me a lot of Onyx <3 But a modded more manly one.
       
    4. Doing layaway calculations is baaaaad. xD If I got in a split for just his head and human body on a 4 month layaway...oh that's a lovely price. :aheartbea I'm almost tempted to try that. haha

      ...he's growing on me like mold. aldkjfalsdkjfff *_*:doh:aheartbea
       
    5. I don't know about growing on me- I was more smacked upside the head, pulled along by the ears, and generally hit like a truck when I saw all his pictures. I have no words to explain it properly, just that I haven't been so floored in a long time. A voodoo prince, a faun of the earth, a personification of death [the skull helm! *-*]- to much he will be and I cannot wait to get him home. <3
       
    6. Yep, it's that time of the month already. The time when I have to remind all of the newly Soomed that it against DoA Rules to post anything about sales outside the Marketplace. This includes making posts about what kinds of splits you hope to make and which parts you really want and which parts you hope to get rid of. ;)

      [thread=285422]Please read this reminder from the mods which was posted last year[/thread]. And keep in mind that breaking this rule more than once does lead to marketplace suspension. Nobody wants that in the middle of a Soom release! :o

      Many posts had to be removed from this thread already so don't be surprised if you find something you posted missing. Thanks for understanding! :chocoberry
       
    7. :XD: Anyone else think "FABULOUUUUUS!" when they see this?

      Overall, I'm not really impressed. He's more of the same; hooves, pretty face, and skimpy clothes. It would have been nice to see some full battle armor on this one :( Soom does make beautiful dolls, but I was hoping the new year would mean moving on to creative new ideas. Ah well, there's always next month!
       
    8. I saw those two in him too. Especially Chrom.


      I don't know what I'm going to do. Chances are I'll get him, and I've decided if I do I'll get fullset minus blushing. Not sure if I like the hooves or not, but I'll get them anyway. I love the colour of his tanned skin too, but am really unsure on that one.
       
    9. My first thought was a masculine Onyx too. lol

      ...um...am I just missing a picture or do we never see his ears? I'm assuming they're just standard human ears, but with Soom you just never know...lol
       
    10. Yup...totally adore him. Gonna get him in tan since that color is to die for. He'll be perfect with my Amber!! Can't wait!!! :D
       
    11. Lol i was just thinking the same thing. I sent an email to Jin so i'll let everyone know once i hear back about what type of ears he has. Obviously not ears like Amber but the wig is too thick to see if they are pointed (which is what im really hoping for :D)
       
    12. Oh fantastic, keep us posted!
       
    13. @idrisfynn :: Terribly sorry! I'm sure plenty of my posts were among those removed! XD It shan't happen again! <3

      Awr, all this talk of Amber is only fueling my desire for her as well (except in male form of course). ; 0 ;

      Personally I hope he has regular ol' human ears, but that's just me. XD Pointed ears are neat and all, don't get me wrong.
       
    14. I think I want one. Now I just have to make a new account since I can't sign into my old one!
       
    15. ;) Order one for me too while you're at it! Haha, I kid.

      I think I might have missed it, but has a waiting room been made yet?
       
    16. ooo~ I just ordered him on layaway! He's seriously everything I wanted in a male doll! Im so happy Soom decided to make a male sorta-Amber. I love his face-up too! Those eye markings are amazing!
       
    17. Wow, what a stunner. I usually go for non-human dolls, but I am surprised this time not to like his somewhat over-the-top hooves. Somehow he looks like a very reversed figure, and the hooves just don't seem to suit that image, but as a human. OMG! I can't beleive how spectacular the tan version is. I am almost sorry I think SDs are just too big; even at that price I might somehow come at it if only Soom would release msds...
       
    18. @rhiella: You know, until your post it never dawned on me that Soom hasn't done any msds for their monthly line so far.

      I agree, it'd be great if they did an msd size. It would bring something new to the table - there's a limit to how many ways one can recombine animal parts and colors after all.
       
    19. Haha, well they're on a roll with it and it must be raking in a good amount of money. Though a MSD sized doll would be interesting, I'm more of an SD kinda gal myself. But I must say, I have been tempted by Angelheim's boy, Luka . He's such a cutie, I'd love to see what Soom could do! Though I'd like to see something...other than hooves. ^^; That's just me though! Haha, a MSD sized Chalco though, I dun think I could pass that up. D:
