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.

    1. Oh goddd I really want Lami but I've got no money. ;__; I'm a good $100 short. I need money and fast! Or I'll have to wait and try to get one secondhand. *sigh*

      I hope you're able to get pictures, midnitestar7! I love the pictures you take! I want to see a comparison of "Baby Pink" and CW...

    3. I'm SOOMed!! I don't want two heads, and I wish I could get Lami's outfit. I will wait until closer to the end of the ordering period, but I am going to layaway the little red devil. He is going to go so well with my Grit and Bygg

    4. Awww, and here I thought that somehow Soom had mysteriously relocated to Washington! ;D You just killed me! if you're up in Vancouver anytime in the next few weeks for your vacation, I'm in between Semesters if you want to hang out! :D

      PeppermintPocky: I swear, you always find a way to keeping being useful to me, even after I sell my MSDs. xD. Thanks much for the information. I'm glad to hear that, because the wig I picked out on the MP was 6-7 and I was worried that he would have a loose thing going on there, for a minute.

      So, in the end, guys, I decided to name my boy Silt. I didn't realize until AFTER I was finishing calculating the costs for our order that Silt is already a Soom Teenie. :doh!

      (Not that I'll change his name at all. He could afford to cause some confusion around here, I think.)

    5. Hehehe, no problem-o! I'm happy to help. :) Didn't know you sold your MSDs, though. I learn something new everyday! ;)

      Btw, I think Silt is a very cute name for your little one! :XD: I need to stop looking at these two... before I give in... :doh
       
      #185 PeppermintPocky, Apr 9, 2011
    6. Yeah, no, I have no more MSDS (I only had the one to begin with).

      And hey, who could blame you for giving in to the devil, right? Just call it 'religious weakness'. ;)

    7. I did it! I was waffling btwn Soom Lami and Lati Green Lea .. but i figured, LG Lea isn't limited so I've ordered! (yet to pay SOOM tho since it gave me an error.. ugh.. will try tonight) Lami's surprised face was what cinched it, and the fact that his normal face is similar to Glot, whom I sold and now replacing with Lami. Perfect-o~

    8. I am seriously considering Lami, but only if the skin is actually a baby pink color, so I'm hoping there will be some clarification on this soon! Both are adorable, but red resin wouldn't go with the rest of my dolls. If I do decide to go for it, it will be my first Soom!

    9. Hello. Sorry to intrude, I've never posted anything on a soom thread before.

      Just a quick question. Does anyone know if the red is mixed on the resin, or just sprayed on. Thank you.
       
      #189 RyokoDWolfwood, Apr 9, 2011
    10. It should be resin-deep, if my Shonkis and my Tan Sooms are any indication, not a sprayed on color. That being said, if you do try to sand the seams, you will get a discoloration, as per the warnings on Soom's site, the same is true of their tans as well. :)

    11. lisadragon: Congrats! I'm glad your order finally went through! Huzzah!

      It seems like alot of people are hooked on the idea of pretty pink resin. That's pretty surprising to me, actually, but I hope Soom comes out with some pictures of it for your guys' curiousity sakes. :)

      My Euclase's grey is not very deep at all. Practically spray on, though probably not completely. He got one scratch, it's not deep, it's barely visible, but it went right past his grey! I know I'm not the only one who had that problem, either! But maybe Soom has stepped up their game in that respect, since then!

    12. I really like the surprise heads, but I'm not Soomed. Isn't it great that Soom is finally offering the option to buy a second body! I hope they keep this up!
       
      #192 catw07, Apr 9, 2011
    13. Well, I am now eating my own words... I said I was safe this month but after seeing more pics, I really love the expressiond on their normal heads. The surprise ones are cute too, but I think I like the normal better. I don't like the devil idea really so if I get them it will be human only and they will need to be girls. ^-^ I am thinking right get Trachy because with the red resin I am thinking that one will be really hard to find second hand, and maybe not as hard for Lami. My idea for the moment is to make a tiny Red Queen to go with my Pipos Dark Alice and DD-Anne Cheshire (teehee, a Red Queen with LITERAL red skin! ^-^) I think I am going to try and find her a long black wig and the Pipos Red Queen dress on the MP. I also want to have a face from Soom but just a little heart shape on the lips similar to how Pipos did with their Red Queen (only in black since her skin will be red). And if I can get Lami later on the MP, then I think I will try and make her into the White Queen. ^-^

    14. Zelinas: A little white/red queen would be adorable. I could see it. And I do think the Trachys are going to be more rare. When you look, people always buy the least expensive one, when possible. What are you going to do with your Trachy?
       
      #194 Splynterhayde, Apr 9, 2011
    15. I think I might break down and put Lami on layaway... Someone stop me!
       
      #195 imgonnakickit, Apr 9, 2011
    16. imgonnakickit: I'll stop you if you stop me. :lol: I'm already looking thru funds trying to figure out how I can manage it..I really want Lami..and I'd PREFER to have face-ups on both heads..but I think if it comes down to it the surprised head will be harder to face-up so I might just get that head with the face-up..I want the eyes..not sure about the wig..I might order that just in case. :lol: See...someone needs to stop me too!
       
      #196 XxBrittox, Apr 9, 2011
    17. I keep going between Trachy and Lami but either way I think one of these little ones are coming home. That surprise face is killing me. Too cute!
       
      #197 fairyspit, Apr 9, 2011
    18. I can't stop you now... I just made a sacrifice to put this one on layaway...
       
      #198 imgonnakickit, Apr 9, 2011
    19. Oh dear. First Soom doll since Chrom that I actually liked enough to buy, and the first overall that I actually wanted to buy during the order period.

      I really hope that the baby pink skin isn't terribly pink... more like a rosey normal skin as opposed to actually full-on pink because that would be the one thing that will stop me from buying. And I'd be sad, because he's perfect for one of my characters.

      I already planned out an entire photoshoot with the surprise face and my other tiny... Oh, this is NOT GOOD. :doh

    20. Will try and get pictures for everyone!!!
      It might not be until next Saturday, but I'm already going to get my hair done at a salon just a few stops away on the same trainline that day so, as long as I finish early enough I can pop to Harajuku to take pictures before going shopping in Shibuya with friends!
      All depends how long my hair and nails take (I start at 11am but... getting a lot done!) but I'll definitely find a way to get there somehow! It's not really far from me at all, it's more just that I'm in major work crisis right now trying to get everything done before I go away (as 3 whole weeks became 3 weeks of nothing due to the earthquake!)
