Io is the only doll who I have, and intend to leave in the exact form that it was conceived by the company. SOOM's IO is their monthly doll for August 2008. I ordered him as a present for my birthday, and I have the normal head he came with as well, though I like the scarface one better to represent my zodiac sign of Leo. I did the face-up, body blushing and blushing on the lion head myself.

Later, SOOM released a doll with optional paw feet, Chrom. I purchased the paw feet to make them into lion feet so that Io can also have the special animal-type feet that most of the SOOM special dolls these days have. I love them!! Plus they make him almost 80cm tall!
