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 September (Virgo) the Third Land: Topaz - Honey Dew

Sep 19, 2008

    1. Thanks for mentioning eyes....

      I'm totally new to BJD--Topaz will be my first doll. I wasn't so sure about the pupil-less eyes that come standard, so I didn't get them. What eyes would go best with a faerie like Topaz?

      Apparently eyes come in glass, acrylic and polyurethane? Is one better than the others?

      Soom eyes seem to have less intense colors compared to Enchanted Dolls--or is that just the pictures?

      I can't find information about what actual size Topaz's eyes are....

      Thanks!
       
    2. Hi Sandy!
      Okay, I checked for the measurements on Topaz eye size and there is a Q&A page 35 that says they are 16 mm. If you want to see them in person, Denver Doll Emporium has all kinds of them to look at. I have bought some from there and I am happy with what I got. You can also see them at ebay, and one I found was under Onsumla. Hope that helps!
       
    3. One of my favorite places to buy eyes is http://www.safrindoll.com/ she carries Soom, Souldoll and a lot of other eyes and is in the US. She lives just a few miles from my parent's house so shipping is extremely fast for me.
       
    4. Speaking of eyes by several people....As far as the olive green eye's.... I've been looking for that color for a long time! Maybe a touch lighter but close!!!


      Also...




      I've bought from. Great service. She lives a few miles from me as well.
       
    5. what clothes would fit a super gem body??


      anyone know???
       
    6. There's a thread covering that [thread=217040]here[/thread].
       
    7. Are the birthstones different in different countries. I thought Topaz was for the month of November, but her bio says she's a Virgo and born in September. Thanks for any help. I'm a November born person, and I've been wanting to buy myself the Soom doll for my month.
       
    8. I think Soom is doing their themes by Zodiac signs, not birthstones. Vega = Pisces, Beryl = Aries, Sard = Taurus, Onyx = Gemini, Bix = Cancer, Io = Leo, Topaz = Virgo. I think her name is just a coincidence.
       
    9. Does that mean that December could be the weird creature with a human front and a horse's back? If so, I'm happy I didn't wait (I am born in December)! :sweat
       
    10. Thanks to everyone for the great info about eyes! Now all I have to do is choose....

    11. Uff I ordered the Topaz : wig+ eyes+face up. Layaway.

      :dance
       
    12. oh my gosh!!
      i just ordered her on layaway, i'm still shaking.
      I ordered her blank, i really like to do blushing and face-up myself...
      I'm still shaking and still slapping myself for buying such a very expensive doll, normally i'm from the budget solutions. ( Buying a budget body and the nice head i want ,fixing/blushing etc as long as i can to make it match perfect, making eyes, wigs,blushing, face up and clothing myself and tadaa beautifull budget doll which makes me very happy), but now i just bought this very above my budget doll, and she is so pretty pretty and beautifull.
      I just couldn't keep her out of my mind...

      and if by any means she is not as pretty as i espected, i could also put her on marketplace.I think there would be people who still want her after order period. (it happened with sard and beryl)

      sigh i'm still shaking lol

    13. I did think and think ...bay...don't bay..*_* because I am a Libra and the next doll will be a Libra doll:?:o
      But now I have decide she will be flying to Sweden Jippii :aheartbea, and now I am hoping that the Libra doll will be ugly:lol::lol:

      She will come to me without body/face up...but the dress - wig -eye will come along whit her.

      ( Fun that 1 more Honey will fly over to Europe )
       

    14. Yay, another topaz in the Netherlands :D
       
    15. Having followed this thread, it's amusing how a lot of people prefer other zodiac signs besides their own. I'm wondering and looking forward to Capricorn, the Seagoat. I see that as a creature of many possibilities since it is such an odd creature. lol! I'm hoping that Soom will combine Sard and Vega--if that happens, that boy or girl will be irresistable and will definitely be swimming home to me!
      We still have a number of zodiac dolls to come. I can't wait to see Soom's interpretations!
       
    16. I too am Libra and am waiting to see what they do- BUT I caved and have topaz on layaway! Thing it, I think Libra and i think justice, scales, blalnce...I can't imagine it will be anything too exciting...knowing my luck it will be amazing- BUT it doesn't matter as I can't wait to get the fairy girl! Ordered her blank and i am looking forward to blushing her!
       
    17. Scales, justice, balance....somehow alltogether more exciting than "the virgin" for virgo. Up till they released her i was trying to figure out what the crap they could possibly do for her XD
       
    18. see, I see the fairy as innocent and shy- like virgo!

      I know, I know, they are going to wow me with libra and I won't have any money! LOL!

      but I am happy with the fairy!
       
    19. We will get Doll Pooorrrrrrrrr:...(:lol::):aheartbea...I am also happy I did bay her..but how will our Libra look :doh:?

       
    20. Oh yea! It's good to be a Virgo with her as the bjd representing! Woot!
