Soom Raon

He's like the boy version of Breccia , and the pinkest, cutest "all Purpose Fox Boy" you will ever see. It's only 150USD over his base price to get the fullset of hands, ears and fancy feet. He's really cute (I admit I love pink) but some of this is great photography and styling. At home he'd still be the tall, mildly- unstable- standing guy with ears that bump out of position if you look sideways at them. That said, you should also order his wig and go to ebay for a National Artcraft stand if you want him, and probably also buy some plastic cherry blossoms. :D He comes in Cream White and Baby Pink. Here's a shot of the body, since there isn't one in the promos--this is the new Soom Super Gem 2016 body: I need to make this guy some clothes.... And here is a better link for the National Artcraft Doll Stands !

The Soom 2016 Body

Soom SuperGem Body 2016 and 2012 So here is a new, 2016 Soom Male Super Gem Body (formerly under a Brett, I think) along with Bird, a Soom Tremo, who has the 2012 body. The newer WS body is actually lighter in weight than the older one, and a lovely pinky-white shade, and a bit translucent--almost identical to my old IOS G in heft and color. The body, like Bird's body, does not really like to sit upright with the legs extended--just like every Soom I have owned, so I was OK with that. Same magnet hand system, same 2-part stringing with the legs on one circuit and the head on another, as shown by Bird in this post. Aside from being slightly taller and slimmer, the 2016 body has different elbows. The "peg" up inside the 2012 arm that annoyed and confused so many people is gone, with just this vestigial bump left to support the elbow in extended poses. Mostly it works quite well. If you are looking at a photo of a Super Gem and you can't tell which year ...
