    2. *sqwees!* I can't handle the cuteness of him.. my gods... this is really bad for me too :/ because that's another boy on my wishlist :lol:

    3. I wouldn't have thought Saiph would work as a boy, but he's cute. I wish he were on a Super Gem body though; I think the head's a bit too small for the Mecha Angel body.

    4. Me too. We should round up all the folk that wanted Sabik on a Super Gem and petition Soom. :)

      Boy Saiph is soooo pretty but I just can't do 80cm. I'll just have to love him from afar :D

    5. I love him! Saiph is a beautiful girl, and such a handsome boy! Although, I agree with Kogepan, a Super Gem body would be much better. That dosen't take him off my wishlist though! lol

    6. I would agree with Kogepan. I also wish that it wasn't just cream skin option! I have plans to buy a soom saiph but I would prefer natural skin colour boy type... :(

    7. Oh gosh, as if I didn't love Saiph enough before. D:
      They just HAD to shove a super cute boy Saiph in my face, didn't they?
      But, I think boy!Saiph would look better with a less gentle looking faceup.
      It makes him seem too girly, in my opinion, and I think he'd look great with a more brooding look (but maybe that's just due to the fact that I love darker characters).

      I just don't know if I could get used to the MA size. Since I'm so short, it'd just be kinda strange to have a doll that's nearly my size around the house. But I would totally be all over that if they made a SG sized Saiph. Rex too, because he's way sexy.

      Also, this is very strange, because I made a post on my blog JUST the other day about how I thought Saiph would be a cute boy.

    8. Wow, he is handsome. I had looked on Soom so many times and never got to see anyone on the for 5 days actually for sale. Now I can say I have. I hope someone gets him. I would love to see a custom faceup on this boy.

    9. Saiph is such a big head, huge face & broad features, he'd look like a bobblehead on a Supergem bod.

      I love him as a boy too! Was wondering if they'd ever genderbend Saiph to boost sales (seemed to work for Vega^^). He looks great. As a woman, this face looks so mature; as a tall gangly boy it looks twice as young. So cute.

    10. ... I want him so badly. ;o; They had better keep him around for more than one sale, since it'll take me time to mortgage my soul to get him...

    11. I have a friend who really wants a Vega as a boy. I know they did him as a monthly doll-did they ever offer Vega as a male during the FFD? Personally, I think the head is too masculine to be a good woman.

    12. Aw, drat. There goes another $700 down the dollfie drain. I wonder if I can set up direct deposit with SOOM? :doh

      Seriously, he's gorgeous. I kind of agree about the head being a little ungainly on such a big body, but still... I'd love to see him with a darker face-up, wild eyes, maybe a birth mark above the lip. Mmmm... :aheartbea
       
      #12 Genesblues, Jul 15, 2009
    13. Wow, we have a female Saiph in the house, and it's just...difficult...picturing him as a boy for some reason, LOL! The faceup would help if it were a little more rough 'n' tumble. ;)

      Fabulous head though, I really do love the sculpt. I'm still getting used to the 80cm, I admit, initially I was thinking we would downsize to a 70 body (I agree a SuperGem girl would probably be too disproportionate for the head), but for now, I'm kinda loving on the MA body more than I'd expected. She is a dominant force in the household! :)

    14. Such a beautiful boy! I noticed on one of the pictures that they quoted the Irish Blessing. Such a tender poem works for him. :)

      And I agree on the point of his head looking to be too small for the body. It just does rest at the very top of the neck. Whoospies on Soom's part? :sweat

    15. would this head fit on an EID body? :O And by "fit" I of course mean "look natural" ^^;;;
       
      #15 ZennoSaji, Jul 15, 2009
    16. Aw Soom I want all new Mechas!

      *looks at incoming list*

      Maybe I don't. :doh

      He's cute, but I'm just not crazy about the lips on the Saiph mold.

    17. OMG... Why!!! I just got Saiph-girl for one of my characters!!!

    18. Wow, Saiph looks really lovely as a male.
      Not lovely enough for my wallet yet though...

    19. He looks so cute!
       
      #19 masala_chai_tea, Jul 15, 2009
    20. Wait, so, look. Some of the other FFD dolls are restocked now, as well. Does that mean that if I can't order this boy this month, I can order him again next month? He's got a gorgeous face!
