Especially since Medusa is probably in the public domain by now . I'm just relieved they didn't put an Epidos extension on Gneiss! (And maybe they felt they needed to keep the rock/gem motif going for her name).But someday somebody has to make a naga/Enchida doll! With a articulated snake tail. Hopefully for less than 1000.00

I do wonder how long it's going to be before Soom starts to run out of stone-themed names... although it's funny that they haven't actually used many of the best-known gems. Where's Diamond, Emerald, Ruby, or Sapphire? Too obvious? Or maybe they're saving them?
fishcake: Not for sale, but have you seen this? It really shows the potential of that theme, I think.
Uncanny Dream BJD Expo had a snake tail bjd in one of it's displays.
At home- Lilica (MNF WooSoo Female Elf Vampire), Pie (Leeke Dodo Head/ LatiBlue body), Pio ( Unoa O Face), Morgan ( Dollmore Glamor Eve Noir Hosoo), Vanity (Soom Adamelli), Belladonna (LeekeWorld WS Mikhaila), Blood( Leekeworld Tan Mikhaila), Leiko (Leekeworld WS Pumpkin Ent Pink Blushing) and Starie ( Dollmore Judith Gossip Zinna White)
Logodae I have seen that..and I want one! Though I don't need the dragon-fin extensions, but the jointing is just what I would want.
Milkyushigirl did you get to go see that? The pictures looked amazing, it must have been so cool to be there in person!
wow, I havent seen that tail before O.o Awesome!
I agree with you fishcake, I to want soom to make a naga, that may even get some of my friends to start with BJD
Oooh. I think she's just gorgeous and wasn't going to hesitate to order her- but then I read in here that someone else was holding out for the SO Breccia as well... I'm now completely paranoid that if I order this lovely lady I'll miss out on an SO Breccia as well. Argh- what to do!
I'll probably be joining the waiting room for Gneiss though - I'm not too interested in her fantasy parts, but her strong features are just gorgeous.
Looking for: Faceup slots!
Saving for: SDGRg or F60 body in WS, Delaney, Adara and Delia
Hiya everyone!! I'm glad to see there is a discussion thread for her!! I bought her last night!! I just couldn't resist!! I had planned on not buying any new dolls for a while and putting my doll funds into the dolls I have now but alas Gneiss had to come along and steal my heart! ^_^
Yay! Now there are at least 3 of us
Yeah, her face is very "meh" for me. I think SOOM should make more female sculpts along the lines of their most famous (like Dia), so we can have more gorgeous boy hybrids. And heads more like Saiph. That is a VERY desired head on a body that many think is just too big. So if they made heads more along THOSE aesthetics....
I mean, that personally for me, I don't really like the looks of sculpts like Gneiss. I like the more detailed ones. Especially around the brows, I always love that!

They can't do a mini-Saiph until Fall, at least. Soom has already eaten all my monies.
oooo, a Saiph Sphinx ..that would be awesome, though it's hard to type.
Really, a Sphinx lion body shouldn't be harder than a horse body..and the legs are shorter!

Well, it's decided- she'll be put on a 4 month layaway tomorrow... YAY I'm excited <3
Yeah one more!! I love her and I think she is so pretty and strong at the same time!
She's incredibly beautiful. I wish she had fantasy parts apart from those snakes :\
Honestly I think the simplicity of her fantasy parts is refreshing. I myself am tired of SOOM claw footed dolls. I suggested to Victoria about little gem scorpions and she said she'd run it by the development team and to keep checking back. SOOM always amazes me and I am excited by them trying to improve their dolls and putting more quality into them. And their customer services and listening to their customers ideas is always top notch.

Yeah, I think so many of the improvements on the new body were from customer suggestions (like the resculpt of the hands). I'm pretty excited to see it in person!
I agree fishcake! I can't wait to see the new body either!
Wewt- officially 'another one' now- I just put her on a 4 month layaway that will probably be paid off in 3 months. With faceup, and the extra type body because I want her to be able to hunch up!
And I'm with Milkyushigirl on the fantasy parts- it IS a nice change to have something a bit less extravagant, yet still out of the ordinary.
yay second_banshee! I think we will be glad we bought the Extra body--the pose photos are so cute!
