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.

    3. Oooo, I might be Soomed again for this boy if he's a wolf. Those eyes look perfect for a character I have. I'll have just recovered from Amber in time for the madness to begin again. Bah!

      And I also agree that I think there are body details they don't want to review quite yet. Oooo, the suspense is terrible!!

    4. Yes, now be awesome! It is only 7:30am in South Korea...so I am hoping a few hours we will have an update! Gosh I want more pics so badly...I must know more about this guy! Will we get more pics before the order period goes up? Or do we just get pics when the order goes up. Because I really like to see him and have a little while to make my mind up.

    5. They tend to release them on Fridays, and come back Monday to a overload of questions on the Q&A. Thats what I am hoping for anyway, as it would mean this evening.

    6. @ NabeeRain: I could be wrong (and someone more knowledgeable correct me if I am), but I think that we will get more pictures when the ordering period opens. I think it's a simultaneous occurrence. At this point I'd even just like to get more photos regardless of whether they open the ordering period or not.

    7. Cuprit is the first one I remember that had two teaser pics, but I might be wrong too.
       
      #307 BeckyE, May 28, 2009
    8. yes, when they put him up for sale they will put tons more pictures up to help us decide to buy him :)

    9. Hmm...I was really hoping for more pics regardless of when the ordering period opens.

      Side note: I thought the name looked familiar and went and looked in my Celtic mythology books from undergrad ( I took a 400 level European Cletic/Pagan history course one summer). True enough, Crom is there as well as the images fromt he archaeological site we discussed in class. I know it is a different spelling, but I thought they might be keeping with a theme here. Anyway, I didn't wanna type up all that was in the book so I did a google search and this site says pretty much what the book says. Interesting that Soom has fire colors and and the bloody red colors. Could this be an influence? Who knows...but it is fun to ponder while we wait!
      EDIT: click on the Crom Dubh link too..my prof thought he was a latter incarnation, though it is debated. Does it mean anything? again who knows...still fun to ponder!

    10. Yeah I posted something similar about the name origin a few pages back in the thread. Someone mentioned it in the questions on his page as well which was what got me thinking.
       
      #310 bellalupina, May 28, 2009
    11. Ah I didn't see it here or on the comment page, of course I just looked at him and the thread last night, but once you get past a few hundred post it is hard to see it all anyway lol!

      I see them now! Yep, I am not too preceptive all the time :sweat
       
      #311 NabeeRain, May 28, 2009
    12. No problem, I wasn't trying to be silly about it or anything. :) I am curious myself to see how/if they incorporate the mythology.
       
      #312 bellalupina, May 29, 2009
    13. I really don't need another big doll, but we'll see....
       
      #313 Rynn007, May 29, 2009
    14. Well, I was one of those who hoped for jackal feet with Euclase (and still loved the hawk ones enough to get him), so if these are done well enough I'm likely to be in trouble; he could be a companion for my were-raven boy.

      Why is it that I only ever like the Soom boys though? The guys vastly outnumber the girls at my house now.
       
      #314 muterari, May 29, 2009
    15. Lol, I've thought about us breaking Soom. Just put up Chrom and nobody gets hurt. :P

      I've been getting very good at online tetris as I wait.
       
      #315 bellalupina, May 29, 2009
    16. Hahah, So I just got back from my night of smoothies, Star Trek, and Waffle House and he's STILL not up?! That's crazy! XD This is utter madness! Us bunch of Chrom enthusiasts are seriously going crazy. Well, in a strange way, I'm glad he's not up yet, because I wanted to be right here when it happens.

      But yeah, I've got a long night ahead of me, so I'll be checking all the time.

    17. That only happened to the people who didn't pay for the dolls when they ordered them. My husband got a Euclase from that re-stock, and two of my friends got a Topaz. Everyone else who hadn't even paid a layaway deposit got theirs cancelled. Moral of the story, if you see one of those MD's back in stock, make sure you pay for it at the same time, don't wait!

      2:45pm Australia time (which means 1:45 Korea time), and no Chrom. If he goes up for sale today it probably won't be till about 4 or 5ish I think. They like to keep people waiting till the last minute of the day XDD

    18. I AM STAYING UP TILL FOUR THIRTY. >:[

      Well I do anyway but that's beside the point.
      I just got home and saw that other picture of Chrom they put up. Yes it's photoshopped beyond all reasoning but....but...oh no I might be Soomed. That's only if they make a human head though. XD;
       
      #318 Sinnistarr, May 29, 2009
    19. ok, little annoyed at the lack of sale and it almost being June.
      But aside from that, there is either too much lighting on that photo or they overexposed it. I wouldnt say photoshop, even though the sides were obviously so.
       
      #319 MiniPyro, May 29, 2009
    20. Either way, they need to put him up now.

      Ugggh.
