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 (July) the Second Land: Cass - Abyss Rhapsody

Jul 24, 2009

    1. thank you sharnofshade! (especially for your breakdown of ideas of what to do if it didn't fit at first)
      and thanks Bexii! I look forward to finding out too :)

      Miss Ally: Soom listed the feet and legs separately, so that's why I wasn't sure. I'd use the human feet as a replacement for the caudal fins, I definitely agree that they couldn't be combined hehe :D
       
    2. I'm also wondering about it, I'd love having that combo because the fishy thing doesn't appeal a lot to me xD I think it's great, but since she can't actually stand with those feet I'd love having de scale leg part but the human feet. I long for the answer too ;)
       
    3. Cass is so lovely, I wish I had waited since she is a little cheaper than Cuprit and her outfit is prettier too. I just don't like the fin parts at all, guess that's why I won't order this one.
       
    4. i really love her, and i want her badly with the ocean elf set! i hope i can get the money toghter before the 15 aug!
       
    5. wish she had a mermaid tail ;(
      ah well!
       
    6. I totally thought that same thing!! I have been pondering Supia for so long too.

      Initially some of the pics turned me off. I just have to look past the face-up and photoshopping to see the sculpt. She looks drunk in some of hte pics, but she's actually an amazing sculpt :D

      I hope I can find way to afford her. Soom is doing their best to make me broke forever.

      EDIT: oh and I wonder how she look with cuprit hooves, or on amber's body, and with some topaz parts.... Soom is fun!
       
    7. Soom dolls are such high quality, I've just never really fallen in love with one this much before. I think I may have to use the money for my new car to get her. My excuse: my old one runs (:doh) I'll think about it for a few more days but I for sure think she'd be worth the investment. When I first saw her, her face turned me off. But now that i've seen pictures of it straight on I'm in love. I'm a total Cass fan girl. DARN YOU SOOM :...(
       
    8. I love love love her. I like her fishy parts, but honestly I dont have any plans for a fishy thingy with two leggies. If it were ONE-- yea ya got me LOL. But I love her human parts very much. Just have to wait now...
       
    9. I'm really glad I don't like her! Saves me some money XD I can't wait to see owner photos though :D
       
    10. wow i think she's beautiful and her outfits are ♥
       
    11. Yes, Cass basic is a bit cheaper than Topaz but after adding the extras she is the same price as Chrom-- who came with extra legs, hands and head. In my opinion Cass's extra parts are closer to Topaz's. I also disagree that prices only go up as a rule.

      Just my opinion. I am one of the people who think it's a good thing that Soom offers extra parts as an option.
       
    12. I like the idea of the extra parts as an option. I suspect most people ordering will likely get them -- speaking generally of the MDs, not just Cass -- but it's nice that the option is there.

      The note they have up in the news area for Cass is very nice. It's another sign that they're definitely listening to the feedback they get, and I think that is very positive. :)
       
    13. I love the optional parts too, just wish they had done it with Chrom since I do not need the wolf-feetsies lol.

      I agree about the notice! I was very pleasantly surprised by it.

      As for the dresses, I think the mermaid one seems popular? I was kind of curious which one everyone liked best. I'd love them both, but the mermaid one is my favorite.
       
    14. Oh, I agree and I absolutely adore the Art Nouveau period. I'm totally Soomed as well! I love her gentle, wise face. And am totally thrilled that she's not the Mecha Angel body. I think she's the most beautiful girl sculpt yet.

      I'm getting the human only version with the option of the ocean dress. And isn't that awesome that you can choose just the human version???!!!! Yahooooo!

      Jay
       
    15. I have both dresses for Cass but I do like the human one more ... I just love the detail on it, espcially the pendant/broach near the top of her dress

      I also like the idea of being able to have the option of having a human doll only. It would probably mean that won't be as many spilts, what with many people not wanting the fantasy parts. I hope they continue this for the rest of the MDs - not that I can afford anymore now :...(

      Cass is worth the money though:D
       
    16. Wow! She is quite lovely! I was pondering what she'd look like with an Amber head and some horns (specially made goat horns, Ram horns, or horns from Cuprit, Sard, or Beryl...). She'd truly be a Capricorn doll then!
       
    17. Brilliant! I don't know why I didn't think of that! You're right on the money regarding the double-tailed siren. Now you've said that, she reminds me of Waterhouse's Siren. Two legs with fins on the end.

      Diaphanous fins, in Cass' case. I wonder what she would look like as a red-head? Think she'd look okay? I wonder if red-hair would overpower her face-up?
       
    18. I do love her shell-ears ^_^ And her oufits are simply stunning... Wish I had a girl to wear those, but alas...
      SuperGem ladies have so beautifully shaped and so 'juicy' body that no one else has)
      Yet I am happy she doesn't ruin my plans... Yes, she's really beautiful but not the one I really wish to be mine) Though I like that new idea - to buy only a doll with a limited mold, human version w/o optional parts ^_^
       
    19. Oh yay, Jay, you're getting her, too! :) Are you getting the SOOM face up, or are you going to do your own? I would love to see how you interpret her.

      I confess, I committed SOOM this month also, even though the doll budget has not recovered from my Vesuvia quest, but I'm happy, I love both these girls.
       
    20. Yes, I like the ocean dress best too. But I want my soom cass to be dressed only in white, so I haven't ordered the dress for myself. If not, I would have definately bought the ocean dress. :lol:
