I love the Pure Neemo 1/6th body, and have used it to good effect on some of my Blythes by doing a body swap. Many people have asked me about the bodies, so I thought I would answer most of those questions here.

Q: How poseable are the bodies?
A: The Pure Neemo Advance Body is incredibly easy to pose. Although it does not bend like a Blythe or Licca body at the legs or arms, the joints are articulated. This means that you can turn them through 180° on one axis. They are jointed at the Neck, Shoulder, Upper Arm, Waist, Hip, and Upper Thigh.
Q: If you cannot bend them, how do you get straight legs and sitting legs like in your photos?
A: You buy the bodies in different poses, Standing ,Sitting, Seiza and Alternate Sitting. They are detailed in the pictures below.
Pure Neemo Advance Type A - Standing
Pure Neemo Advance Type B - Sitting Alternate
Pure Neemo Advance Type C - Sitting
Pure Neemo Advance Type D - Seiza
Pure Neemo Advance Type E - New Joint Type
Pure Neemo Advance Type F - New Bust Type

Q: So I have to buy different bodies to get different poses?
A: Yes, but you don’t have to buy them all. All the parts are completely interchangeable and compatible with all the types available.
Q: Wow, that F Type has big boobs!
A: Yes, the F Type is designed as an Older Sister or Adult style of bust – very popular in Japan.
Q: Is it easy to change bodies on my Blythe?
A: Very. Just unscrew the back of your Blythe’s head, take out the old body, and place the new body in, ensuring the little plastic ledges inside the neck hole are in between the new Neck post and Neck of the Pure Neemo Body.
There is a really good discussion group over at Flickr. And There is a discussion group specifically for the new Body Types (E, F and Flection).
The new Flection type has jointed knees, ankles and elbows, negating the need to buy more parts or bodies.
