Small BJD meet in Camden, Edinboro Castle today with a couple of new faces and dollies too.

Unfortunately the weather was not very nice but the company was ^^

Took loads of photos for a small meet but there were so many dolls! And fell in love with the Pukis!

All pics here.

Overview of some of the dollies

Suvi-fays loooovely Puki pong pong – I gotta get me one of these one day

I command thee, buy me a minion like this!

Ahem…

Look at meeeee

Drink is all mine!

Emm-Jays lovely pink lady

Think her name is Tinka…

Just another one…

And one more…

Cinnamon in Marilyn’s pink bikini – she wears it quite well – cold day for it though

Emm-Jays other lovely girl with a Maz faceup

Balancing act that did not go so well lol

Gosh, another one ‘ who turned out the lights???’

Put her together today and gave her a good spraying of MSC to keep her.

Managed to scrape one of her nails and damage one of her horns in this process – numb nut me!!! Oh well, just one of those things I guess. As I buy these to be used I should not moan but it is still annoying.

Took forever though O.o but so worth it and she looks stunning.

Cannot believe the difference between my experience with her and Topaz has been. Really did not want to open the box when I received Topaz, should have seen that as a sign. Where here I was ooooh, cannot wait to get her out! Of the Soom sculpts, Beryl is still my favourite but Vesuvia is a very close second.

Just some pics of the whole process.

It should have hit me here that the black paint would come off if not dry enough – oh well – bugger.






And the woman got no knickers! Kinda realised this when taking these low shots… Why did they not give her any knickers???

Vesuvia finally shipped today and has left Korea:

Date Time Location Tracking Event
15-05-2009 22:20 Delivery Agent – SEOUL – PTT Left origin country
15-05-2009 18:27 Delivery Agent – KOREA, REPUBLIC OF Collected from customer

So, a week or more before I actually get her. Hope she arrives safely.

So according to Soom’s site my girl will not be shipping until end June O.o

I paid her of end March.

Ridiculous waiting times.

Making me definitely want to consider if I want to invest in more Soom releases or if I should just not bother. Plenty of other pretty dolls out there, especially from Iplehouse and they seem to be able to ship within a reasonable amount of time.

*sigh*
