    1. this new picture does clear up the resin color question... he is definitely a white doll. no special resin this time

    2. oh god. Now that there is a second teaser I know I'm soomed. I no has monies. Well, I'll be hunting on the pre-loved market eventually. Why can't soom make regular molds of their dolls? the world would revolve so much easier...

    3. Speaking of more pictures, does anybody know when Soom might be releasing the rest of the Sphaler shots? I thought Cass's photos were released 2-3 days after the teaser, but I could be very wrong...

      TheFontBandit - Woah! Thanks very much for all that! :) I'm still betting on Euclase-like claws. But hooves wouldn't be bad. Judging by the trend you posted perhaps Sphaler will have fully jointed digitigrade legs.

    4. Perhaps it was pearly resin that was the prototype, or the hands even, and *not* the face that's different? That's what I'm hoping, anyways, since I like the first pic of the face better than the second, and I can't tell whether it's angles or not from those pics. There's something just so human and familiar about both pics, though.

      And I love the white eyelashes. Goes with the white hair. He doesn't really look like the type of guy to be wearing black mascara.

    5. ahhhhhhh, so thattttt is where everyone got the 'proto-type different doll' idea. i am going with: same doll :):) . someone was in a hurry to go home and put up the wrong photo or, soom being soom, they just gave everyone more to talk about. i don't think it was the 'doll' that was the 'proto-type' i think it was the 'picture' that was one of the 'proto-type previews' that maybe, perhaps, maybe, they didn't want us to see. even that is a (caps lock) big maybe. :):):) .

      singham wilk: you are right :) grain of salt. that's why we love soom. they add spice to our lives.

    6. Yeah, at a local meetup I got to compare the Beryl and Amber legs/hooves and I was surprised at the difference even in the hoof shape. I wish I'd gotten pics. :doh

      Fully-jointed digitigrade clawed legs would be so amazing! I still regret not being able to get those gorgeous Euclase clawed legs... :aheartbea If Sphaler has full-on dragon talons? I'm Soomed.

    7. What if....
      He had a Souldoll Chiron like dragon body :o Probably not, but it would be awesome.
       
      #347 Snow, Sep 22, 2009
    8. exactly my thoughts :)
       
      #348 Ellesmera, Sep 22, 2009
    9. I'm guessing rather Euclase-esque legs will be what we see. He looks much better from this angle, the jaw has a nice shape, the eyes are lovely.....I'm still not feeling the lips and nose though. His face really call for more definition there, though half of it is probably the faceup. I'm still more interested in his outfit than anything, the doll himself is just so-so.
      BTW, the firs pic was the same doll, the hands just had a ton of blushing on them I'm willing to bet.

    10. Wouldn't it be super crazy if he ended up being a 'taur? Take that souldoll... not gonna happen though, it is an amusing thought >}
      C'mon sOom stop hogging the release pictures!

    11. I'm still hoping for hooves.

      [​IMG]

      Something like these, I'm thinking. Scaled. :whee:

      And if it's more dragon like, it would be cool if it still kept in mind the hoof concept:

      I just can't wait to see what Soom has in store! They have such amazing ideas.
       
      #351 DarkRegrets, Sep 22, 2009
    12. DarkRegrets I'm with you on the hooves! Its very possible if he has hooves they look like that. And scales instead of fur/hair would be the icing on the cake.
       
      #352 Lazulistar, Sep 22, 2009
    13. .... Dragon lords do not have hooves so I am not too sure about the chance of him having hooves

      My thing is whether he will have a tail or not

      Dragon HAS a tail, he needs a tail for him to be a dragon lord

      I really wish he was any color other than white

      A BLACK dragon lord will make his digit hands look normal and cool
       
      #353 anavel, Sep 22, 2009
    14. Glad you agree! The scales instead of fur would be so amazing; I think it would be something new and unique for the hoof idea.

      anavel, I'm still holding out for hooves. :lol: At this point we don't know WHAT he is exactly (Dragon, Kirin...maybe both??). I know he'll be amazing anyway. ^^ I think it would be cool if he has a white tail that's blushed like his hands if he is a dragon!

      At this point it's all up in the air!

    15. MAYBE A DRAGON? D8 PLEASE? /dead
       
      #355 Aisu, Sep 22, 2009
    16. I'm crossing my fingers for hooves too, call it a weakness- then again I wouldn't be discouraged by dragon feet in the slightest!
      Scales/Fur would be awesome- however I think due to the "Mireu" of his title I think he has to be dragon and not kirin which would definitely mean clawed footies.
      I hope he has a tail =F
       
      #356 Melanyte, Sep 22, 2009
    17. I was thinking about the title as well, but I'm still hanging on to the idea of hooves.XD Even scaled ones!
      The first teaser reminded me of a Kirin, as it did a lot of other people, but I believe some depictions of dragons have those horns too. I would LOVE scaled hooves, but like you, I wouldn't mind the dragon feet. A tail wouldn't hurt too!:aheartbea
       
      #357 DarkRegrets, Sep 22, 2009
    18. does anyone have a picture of the original teaser? i keep seeing comments about is horns and fingers but all i see is his head...:?

    19. Check page 15 of this thread.^_^
       
      #359 DarkRegrets, Sep 22, 2009

    20. well, Mireu means dragon lord (so I was told) and the theme for this element is Thunder (to go with the lighting of Heliot). Kirin is a gentle creature who does not control thunder.

      Dragon lords has super powers that controls the water (thus river, lake and ocean) and weather (since water is a big part of sky - clouds, thunder, air etc). Thus dragon will go with this element
