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 Teenie Gem and Monthly Doll Discussion Part 14

    1. Long time no see! I have a Syen from when the little gargoyles were released but haven't made much time for him in a while. Soom really caught my eye with their Halloween release thou so I had to drop in!

      I'm very tempted in two parts- to get the little Dracula outfit (just darling) and to get a WS Trachy head- tiny teef! I am trying to limit my collection these days, but I think my syen and a trachy could share a body.

      Haha that's cool how you guys have started analyzing the release patterns for the FCE events.

    3. I'm tempted by the tiny vampire outfit as well - reminds me of the fullset Gluino clothes but in the Tiny format, it's adorable :)

    4. I'm unsure if this has been asked before...but is there much difference between Beyla hooves and Aloa (winter wood elf) ones?

    6. I asked Soom about an approximate date for the upcoming TG FCE and they told me it would be on the 21st! No month given but I assume it'll be November. ;) The sales notice is supposed to be posted on the 14th.

      ...time to save up money for the event and let's see if Soom got some pleasant surprised colour- and doll-wise for us in stock! :XD:

    8. Hello!

      I'm not trying to start any drama or create a controversial topic here, however I was wondering if there is anyone I can go to, or anywhere where I can share some pictures of my Soom Dolomi/Glot hybrid to make sure she's not a recast? ;___; I've been researching for hours but I can't find any good photos of the insides of a Dolomi's head or body, recast or legit, in order to compare mine to.

      I'm fairly certain she's a legit (lord I hope so) based on price paid, circumstances she was bought under, etc, but I would really like some second opinions just to be on the safe side.;;;; Thanks :c

      I think you could try using Ask the Moderators forum and ask them there.

    10. I had a doll that I bought here in DOA that I had some suspicions about. I actually took some pictures and asked Soom directly. They were very nice about it and to my relief they confirmed she was legit. Do you have the COA? That might help as well. Try putting it into Sooms website.
       
      #190 karleecakes, Oct 26, 2016
    11. Oh wow, I didn't know you could contact Soom about it. She didn't have her CoA, she was bought directly at a meetup, but she did come with a Soom outfit (though it's not from Glot or Dolomi) and a Soom pillow case. I can't remember if the girl said she had lost the coa in a move or something, but she was leaving the hobby to raise a family instead.

      What did you take pictures of to send soom? The inside of the headcap, etc? o:
       
      #191 PurpleCheeseStick, Oct 26, 2016
    12. The head cap was my main concern because of its roughness. I sent that and her eye wells which were rough. I think I included a full body shot as well. Mine did have a COA so they may have made there decision off of that. Hope they can help you.
       
      #192 karleecakes, Oct 26, 2016
    13. Okay, thank you so much! So then I assume the slight roughness insuide the headcap and eyewells is normal then? I mean I know yosds are pretty small so it might be hard to get in there and smooth it out... I was mostly alarmed when I received my Iplehouse SID and saw how perfectly smooth he was in comparison, along with my Fairyline Sia, since this Dolomi/Glot was my first "expensive" bjd before I got the other two. @__@
       
      #193 PurpleCheeseStick, Oct 27, 2016
    14. I have quite a few teenies and most of them are really smooth and not rough at all. That's why I was worried. Sorry I can't ease your fears completely but in my case they confirmed she was real.
       
      #194 karleecakes, Oct 27, 2016
    15. Oh I see; well, thanks anyways! ; v ;
       
      #195 PurpleCheeseStick, Oct 27, 2016
    16. @PurpleCheeseStick a number of the mod team are familiar with Soom dolls, so you can definitely feel free to post some photos there, and we'll be happy to have a look for you!
       
      #196 AirimirOfGondor, Oct 27, 2016
    17. Okay cool, thank you very much! ; v ;
       
      #197 PurpleCheeseStick, Oct 27, 2016
    18. The mods took a look at my doll and have decided she is most likely legit, what a relief!! :D Now if I can find the time again I can actively participate in this thread. Thank you everyone so much for your help c:

      If it's alright, here's a photo of the little bugger who was giving me such stress xD I love her though <3
