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 Super Gem Dia

Mar 19, 2008

    1. Yep, Soom does custom faceups (though they messed up mine...oh well, I'm over it). They cost $70 and need to be ordered separately under the Faceups tab.

      And yes, some people got Dia for half price. Me included. \^.^/
       
    2. I'm joining up with the rest of you fine people in the wait for Dia:aheartbea.... I had to take the plung. I tried to resist, but it was just useless:doh....... I can't wait to see this girl in the resin!!!!

      chizzie_shark could I ask how Soom messed up your boy's custom face up? He is STUNNING by the way:aheartbea Spinel is on my wishlist:aheartbea
      ~Anthony
       
    3. Mainly his eyebrows....I specifically wanted them to be flat and gentle, but that didn't happen...and his eyes are a little too heavy. But oh well. Still love him

      Welcome to the Dia club! *high 5*
       
    4. *high 5* right back at cha;)

      Awww shoot, I'm sorry:(..... But he is still truely one of the most beautiful Spinels on the boards IMHO:aheartbea:sweat

      I left VERY Specific instructions with pictures on the custom face up I request for my Dia, so I'm hopeing she turns out perfectly:eusa_pray
      ~Anthony
       
    5. I think I must have a Dia boy one day. But I wont embark on the task until Christmas, I think, so I can see owner pictures of her, and hopefully pictures of the head on different bodies!

      I went a did some photoshops

    6. Botflybaby I can not WAIT to see your Dia:shudder.... He's going to be one GORGEOUS STUD!!:love.... May I ask who this model is? I love his face:aheartbea
      ~Anthony
       

    7. Wow! What a good resemblance. I bet she would make a great pouty male model:D

      Edit: just realised it's my 100th post..go me :sumomo:!
       
    8. I think the only real difference is the nose! The male model's name is Sasha Gacsal, and I am so obsessed with him even though he doesn't model much. He is just too gorgeous, and his looks are what I envision Dietre looking like in my head. I can't believe there is a doll that looks just like him, and that its a STANDARD! I feel so lucky. xD
       

    9. Awww thank you! River is happy to hear that (he's got to be the handsome hero you see).

      I left pretty specific instructions too I thought...but oh well. It seems like I'm the only person who's ever had this problem with Soom faceups, according to their Q&A board. Maybe I'm just picky or something.
       
    10. Has anyone gotten shipping notices yet? Anthony I didn't even know you were interested in her!
      I'm actually giving my Dia cheekbones, I guess she will look even more like that model O_o
       
    11. Cheekbones? Ooooh...I really can't wait to see your Dia International Velvet!

      No shipping notices here. In the Soom waiting room a few of us are holding our breaths for Monday (that's tomorrow!) Kelly said mine would ship on Wednesday. Oh the agony!
       
    12. I'm dying to see owner pics of a Dia, I'm really on the fence about ordering her, or waiting for soom to release their 'infamous incubus' :whee:they have in the making. The one thing I'm not sure about is her open mouth- it's the nicest (most realistic) one I've seen on a doll, but I've avoided dolls with open mouths i the past..

      Congrats to everyone who ordered her though, she is lovely:aheartbea
       
    13. Hmmm..I asked on the Q&A if Dia would fit on a regular Gem boy body. I was told they tried, but it looked "odd" as Dia's head is bigger than the Gem heads. I know some one had asked if Dia would work on a Super Gem boy body and they said yes, and even said they could possibly sell the person who asked a dia head on a super gem boy body if they paid an extra 30 dollars or something.

      I really wanted an SD13 size because they are easy to buy clothes for, and lots of places have really really NICE victorian style mens clothes for that size, but if I can only get my dia boy on that big super gem body, then I might just do that.

      Even though D is SOOOO not supposed to be buff and manly like that! -Can't imagine him with those washboard abs!- o__O
       
    14. Well, my girl is going on a modded fdoll boy body (until I can find a 60 cm body that works for her)- so we'll see how that works out. I think her head looks smallish for a BJD on her body (wide shoulders) so we shall surely see.

      No shipping notices yet?
       
    15. chizzie shark has gotten one! i dont think anyone else has
       
    16. Ooops, haha sorry I forgot to post my shipping notice on this board! Yep, she's nearly here...I just checked EMS and she's in Sydney!!!! Now if she could just clear customs...
       
    17. Hmm, we really must think about having another Sydney gathering....
       
    18. Hehe we absolutely should! Because....Dia is all set to arrive on Monday, if nothing goes wrong with those PO people! :cheer
       
    19. Promise to post pics here when she arrives?:D
       
    20. Morbid! I was wondering, since your sister's Oska's head is a soom head, and you own a souldoll double boy body, do you think that soom would match enough with souldoll? I really like the souldoll double boy body and was thinking about getting it for my Dia boy, but I think souldoll resin is going to be too pink?

      What body are you thinking of putting your Dia boy on?
