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. how I didn't realize him until today, just amazing..He will be my first soom. :aheartbea
       
    2. :lol:Okay I have got to say this.....what the heck is up with Soom and their obession with hooves??? Man how many MD dolls have they released with hooves already?? I wanna see something different besides hooves or bird/chicken feet for a change.
       
    3. This is what Jin Lee said :)

      게시글제목 :Chalco내용 :Dear Customer,

      Hello,

      Thanks for your deep love in our new MD Chalco.
      He has a Human type ears.

      If you have any problem or question plz feel free to contact me at any time.

      Thanks a lot,
      Have a good day!

      Best regards,
      Jin Lee

      Even though he has human ears it still works out for the character i have in mind so it all works out :D
       
    4. I believe it was midnightstar7 who asked the Soom rep about making MSD MDs. The rep gave her an "Ewww, no" face.

      Also, stupid question: Isn't Chalco the last of the 2009 line? Does that mean we might see what's next in the new Land next month?
       
    5. I have to say, his face didn't really do it for me, but I do love the skull mask -and the tanned skin option? I really do love the Super gem bodies... so I ordered one. >"<;
       
    6. Thanks for asking and posting that, pumpkin1984! :) Huh, that's different. Except in the case of dolls with extra heads, I think all of the hooved/funny footed sculpts so far have had pointy ears. How odd for him to have human ears! Suits me fine too though, since I'd want him to be (mostly) human anyway.

      And yep, Chalco is the last of the 2009 MD's, who knows what we'll get next month! :D Talk about finishing with a bang, lol. I wonder how popular he will be? He is gorgeous and comes in tan, but I wonder if the hooves (again) and the price will be offputting. I must admit, I REALLY want him, but the price makes me think twice. I'll probably cave though, as its not exactly easy to find a tan 65cm guy, let alone with such a pretty yet masculine face. >.<
       
    7. :lol: Haha, so much for that. Oh well.
       
    8. I think I said this earlier but for some reason I dont see my post but he is beautiful and I managed to scrape up the layaway money and he is already ordered. To me it seems like to meet the monthly deadline they are casting parts from each past doll and mixing and match them to make a new doll. Like heliot maser hands with amber hooves legs and sards head lol mix it up and bam! a new doll. But because hes tan which is rare with soom and has a gorgeous face i could not resist him.
       
    9. Thanks Dolly! That's what I thought I saw in their 2009 MD archive, but I wanted to make sure. Off to speculate on the other thread. :)

      I guess Chrom wasn't enough? ;) Soom makes what people want (and buy). It's business 101.
       
    10. Anybody know whether his body is the same as previous MD? He looks skinny compared to the rest of the MD.
       

    11. Well, that sucks for my wallet, lol! I've been on the fence with him, and wanted a closer picture of his face from the front. Yeah, he is quite pretty. Quite pretty...
       
    12. Alright after seeing close pics of his face I think he is very lovely, but I already have a doll on layaway so I will just admire this one from afar.
       
    13. I had a feeling that if Soom released another pretty boy, I'd most likely want him. :sweat The fact that he comes in tan just kinda cinched the deal. So as soon as I get my credit card to go through, I'll be hanging out in the waiting room thread.

      (I really tried to get through this whole thread, but I don't think it's going to happen. :|)

      It seems like we're going to end up with at least 3 Chalco's in the Pittsburgh area. :sweat Probably 2 tans and one normal.
       

    14. He is lovely - ordered the NS and the tan has grown so much on me since I prefer the tan skin - doh! ;)
       
    15. I wonder if there are any otherMinnesotans getting him. >u<
      ; u ; Loving the close up shots...<33

      I'm not sure, honestly...I want to say its the same body, haha. I personally thought the legs/thighs looked different, but that's just me.
       
    16. It's so hard to tell about the legs from the pictures. I actually asked Soom about them and his sitting ability, hopefully they'll get to my question tonight. ^^ I am still trying to resist this guy, and it will be easier to say NO if he has too many "Amber issues". 'Cause honestly, if I get him I doubt I'll do a split, even though I could do without the hooves. Strangely, the Linuus parts seem to be pretty unpopular in the splits section -- I guess a lot of people just want a tan human guy!

      If only he wouldn't look so good with my Queena, it would be so much easier. ;_;

      And does anyone see it say he's "legend" version anywhere? :? I'm thinking maybe he comes with the normal human leg length instead of the long type.
       
    17. From what I've seen I think it's the tan Linuus parts that are taking awhile to get taken. Perhaps people are more interested in NS hooves in order to plop them on their other bodies?

      ;) C'mooon, just go for it! You know you want to take him home~
      Hm...I wouldn't mind if they were the normal human length myself, I quite like the regular Super Gem height. I have issues as it is finding good pants for my other boy. XD
       
    18. Ahem..... WANT. That is a smexy doll. Gah! Honestly, though? The faun/centaur legs look strange... kinda overly thick? Totally not a problem, though. I'm drooling over this guy.
