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.

IDealian72 River the Merry Monarch LE

Aug 24, 2011

    1. That is a crazy elaborate outfit! I love that they even tackled that style!
      River looks pretty awesome so far, hope his profile is just as nice.
       
    2. The outfit is a pretty impressive copy, historically speaking. It looks like the king's robes over the nearly the exact costume worn by Robert Downey Jr. in Restoration. http://26.media.tumblr.com/fCa0LLUhdqkx1mkgf6g1iLIdo1_500.jpg I'm pretty sure he had a version with the ribbons at one point, too.
       
    3. I generally love Soom's costumes and this one is definitely elaborate (and beautiful), but not a big fan of that era. Now if it were Rococo, or Regency (or pretty much any era after 1700 or so) I'd be drooling.
       
    4. Definitely it's not in my lap..nor the mold nor the costume.
       
    5. He doesn't look very merry though. XD
      ... I want that crown, for no reason.
       
    6. Nothing special for me...Unfortunately
       
    7. With such flat even lighting across his face it's hard to get a sense of his real features. I do love the outfit but I'll hold off on my feelings about his face until I can really see him!
       
    8. Haha, exactly what I was gonna say! Good for those who want a serious(er) doll, not so good if you label him the Merry Monarch XD
       
    9. OFF WITH YOUR HEADS! All of you!:lol: I do love that crown.
       
    10. I have no idea why, but I really want him. What an utterly sulky face.
      Love it. Too bad Lorina ate all of my money:(
       
    11. Maybe Soom thought naming him the Morose Monarch would be bad for sales.
       
    12. That made me do a spit-take I snerked so hard. Good point, though. ;)
       
    13. The outfit's awesome but i've not been soomed =/
       
    14. ...I feel like I should show this to my history professor. I think his concept is AWESOME. o:
       
    15. Me too. I choked on an ice cube.

      I'm relieved that I'm so not into him. I do want the shirt, though.
       
    16. Perhaps he should be the Moody Monarch. He looks good to be sure, and the outfit is stunning. I'd like to see a close up of his facial sculpt.

      Yes! I'm with you guys, I definitely would buy the crown, and plop it atop my ever-so-affordable king, Ivan.
       
    17. Maybe, they mean merry like drunk? With many wenches?
       
    18. and a hangover, apparently
       
    19. I want the Crown too, i guess that he isn't that much happy LOL, definitely not my cup of tea. ;)
