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. Wow! That ear is amazing. I'm betting on it actually being transparent, not a photoshop. I think if it is a clip on I'd be disappointed but not surprised. On all the other dolls the kind of "special" part was removable and potentiually interchangeable like Io's Lion head, Bix's claw and Beryl/Sard's hooves.

      When I saw the face the first thing I thought was it was a Gem- but I hope it's a super gem, it'd be the first one that I'd really like to have. Fairy wings would be really cool, I'd be interested to see how Soom would do them. Totally not what I was expecting for Virgo, anyways.

      Can anyone tell if her earrings are black, or just metal in the shadows?

    2. I wouldn't be surprised to see an elf head and a human head. Which would mean double doom.

    9. They do "sell out" but they always seem to restock them & sell them until the end of the month, so they sell them the whole period. Beryl & Sard both "sold out" multiple times, you just need to watch the site for when they restock.

      Once more, she is a Supergem. Her name is Topaz, which is a stone, which is how they name their super gems. The other sizes have different naming schemes, MA are stars, SuperGems are stones, Gems are cities/places (I think), Teenie Gems are named after food/spices/flavors.

    10. It almost looks like to me that her ear is a separate piece that fits over top of her normal ear. :o That would be awesome if it was. Then maybe they'll offer a gentle head. :3

    11. All Soom's super gem girls have the same body, not just beryl. Her curves & stuff have nothing to do w/ her being a succubus, just thats their body type. And I really don't see how her face is any more delicate than beryl's. I really think Aqua's features are very soft and delicate, its just everyone's perception of her being harsh and cold because of her hooves, horns & most people making her into a demon. Granted shes a bit frowny, but that doesn't make her any less delicate.

      And honestly, I'm pretty tired of waifly fae/elves. I want one with some curves!!

    12. I wouldn't be at all surprised if that's how they set it up. The fin-ears on their mermaid boy were done that way, so there's a precedent for it.

      Also, perhaps slightly OT, but did anyone else notice this in the comments on Topaz's page? WAY out of line, in my opinion. Wow.

    13. Wow. Entitlement much??? Oh well, any Soom doll is well worth the wait, even if it is super agonizing. Every one of them has been beautiful and interesting. :) So this person should quit whining and chillax.

    14. Wow, I admit Soom takes their time when it comes to producing and shipping their dolls - but if that means each month I get to see a new beauty like this one - who cares??
       
      #154 Yuna-Ki, Sep 20, 2008
    15. i dont exactly understand what that person is trying to say other than soom is slow???



      maybe they are being sarcastic???

    16. I believe that they seem to think Soom should focus on making/shipping their doll before they open up and make another one. Unless they're a noob to the hobby (totally possible) they must understand that dolls take time even when not swamped with orders, and since its a "monthly" doll, why would they not come out with another one every month. People are silly.

      But I mean, there are a ton of their monthly dolls coming to this forum, I can only imagine how many have gone to collectors in other countries who aren't on these forums! Its no wonder they're behind, but their work speaks for itself.

    20. All of the dolls named after Gem stones are SUPER GEM size.

      (Lazule, Spinel, Dia(mond), Olivine, Beryl, Topaz)...all gem stones. It's an easy way to tell the size.

      Ugh and that comment on the page....people don't understand that it depends on what you order and that the dolls take time to make (even longer if you order a limited and extras).
