The 2nd Summerbird Preorder for Viola and Mystique will start on September 21, 2018 at 4 PM (Eastern US Time).
You can check what time this will be for you here.
The preorder period will be from September 21st to October 4th, but it will close early if the order reaches 30 dolls. So it is both time and quantity limited, whichever is reached first.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a pre-order doll, which means it needs time to be made after your order. Production and assembly is estimated to take about 5 months after the preorder is closed, but it could be more or less time depending on various factors.
CASTING DETAILS
Same as the first preorder, casting will be done by Haru Casting, a small family-run company in South Korea that specializes in BJD casting. They provide pictures with updates in the casting process that I will of course share with you. You can also follow them directly on their Tumblr, Flickr, or Instagram for lots of cool process photos, and delightful pictures of their own dolls. They are wonderful people and I'm happy to be working with them again!
You can choose from 5 resin color options (same as the first preorder): Cream White, Pale Violet, Pale Peach, Café au Lait, and Milk Chocolate. These correspond to the Haru Casting color names: Cream White, Pastel Violet, Nanni Normal, Light Tan, and Cacao Tan (respectively). You can find out more about the resin colors and color matching in the blog article here.
