Ursala top video!

**Blaze** · 10-17-2013, 01:36 PM

Love that video! Heh and that song!

**Jessica** · 10-17-2013, 02:19 PM

That's the best video yet! The Ursula top is just amazing.

I heard from her last week I think. It was just a quick email about my rainbow top, I relied but nothing yet. I didn't see her online since then so I thought they were probably gone on performances.

awh the Ursula top is gorgeous! I want it for my collection

**Talia** · 10-18-2013, 03:39 AM

No news for me yet either.

That Ursula top is just gorgeous! Although when I see it, I think more of Cthulhu than of Ursula (not a Disney's Little Mermaid fan here).

I am more interested in the dark side of the sea (i.e. Lovecraft) than in the usual "brightness" that mermaids are normally associated with. I have always figured than evil mermaids (as the ones in Pirates of the Caribbean) would be more than happy to be Cthulhu's minions.

Ahhh, it looks so good!
Seeing as it's a product video, though, some more shots of the actual product would have been nice. Yes, she's very pretty, but it's not her people want to buy! xD

**Merley** · 10-18-2013, 03:47 AM

Agreed, Melania. I wanted more shots of the top. She's pretty and all, but I wanted to see it in full view. But gah sooooo much love. It's my favorite top of her's I've seen yet. I definitely want one.

**Blondie** · 10-18-2013, 03:48 AM

I was just about to say that xD There's not really a good shot of the whole top and showing it's wonderful detail.

**Anahita** · 10-18-2013, 05:07 AM

I'm thinking the same thing too.... like the ones where they're showing the tails and the scales too, if I didn't already know what those flukes and scales looked like, I'd have a hard time figuring them out (the Mermaid Jenny one is hard to see the detail of the scales AND the shape of the Merfin fluke since it only appears in fleeting clips, usually moving, and the Mermaid Sommer one, while it does show the fluke a bit better, and more still, doesn't really show it fully)

Are they going to release a full video catalog in the end and these are just clips, or are these THE catalog?

**PearlieMae** · 10-18-2013, 07:57 AM

Great video, but the focus is definitely on the model and not the item...if I didn't see the title of the video, I would have thought it was to promote the mermaid.

Hi um... I love you forever. <3

And I'm in agreement with others - I thought the video focused too much on the model and not the product. I was hoping to see a lot of up-close detail on the top because I would love one!

That's cuz these are teaser videos. Its supposed to be mysterious and leave you wanting more.

Then they aren't very good at teasing.

**AniaR** · 10-18-2013, 12:41 PM

If it gave all the stuff you suggested it wouldn't be a teaser...

Guys: you know a teaser? One that gets you interested and wanting to see more? A teaser trailer gets you looking for the stuff you mentioned, gets you saying, "This looks like something I want to see more of, I want to keep an eye out for the detailed video." It's not a "here's everything about this." More of a, "Hey, this exists, keep an eye out for more details!"

From your comments about wanting to see more of the top, looks like the teaser accomplished its purpose.

**Mermaid Kalliope** · 10-18-2013, 05:01 PM

The video won't work. :-(

Buuuuuut... I heard back from Raven! Yay! My tail is in "the home stretch" and photos possibly soon! *does a happy dance* Also, I hardly realised what day it was when I asked if anyone had heard back from her. My current job has me all thrown off.

**Merley** · 10-18-2013, 05:35 PM

I heard back too, Kailani. You should have heard my fangirl squeals to see her name in my inbox. I'm confused about your tail tho, if it's the purple one with the big fluke that one of the models has been wearing, is it not finished or something? It seems pretty functional to me.
