Adopted Threads Progress

I've adopted four Lati Yellow threads and am in the process of moving helpful information to the line page.

Thread Progress

Findings

General Lati

  • You can buy a doll outside of order periods, but you have to buy head and body separately which costs more.
  • Lati marks down the value of the doll on the customs form, though this is illegal...

Yellow-Specific

  • Lati Yellow are about 1/6, or playscale, sized.
  • Eye sizes: Different eye sizes suit different sculpts. All Lati dolls are shipped with 14mm eyes, but sculpts with smaller eye holes (Cookie, Byurl, ) suit smaller eye sizes.
  • Wigs that fit: size 5-6
  • Lati brand wigs, dark AND light ones, are very prone to staining your doll. Beware!
  • Lots of different "pointy-eared" versions...devils, original vampires, elves, dragons, unicorns, and lately limited Bayer
  • Used to offer magnetic hands and feet but no longer do (I believe, check on website)
  • Two body types - old and Renewal. Link to lati post explaining differences All new Latis are shipped on Renewal unless you request the old body.
  • Different sculpts have different head sizes. Lea is puportedly the largest, while sculpts like Pury , Laches and Cookie are smallest. Therefore, wigs might be looser..
  • Lati NS resin has been getting lighter and lighter, and may appear almost WS (as of 2011)

Helpful Pictures

Clothes Compatibility

  • Yellow SP *may* fit CH Bisou Ai and Kish Riley clothes
    • (may have trouble with Riley trousers bc SP have larger bottoms)
    • (Riley shoes are good for Yellow Renewal, some Riley shoes may need socks to fit)
    • (Riley arms/legs are longer than Lati so short sleeves might be best. Fits SP better than renewal.)
  • Bratz tops, skirts and dresses work great on Latis and similar-sized BJDs - the glasses fit fine, too, and so do the caps on not-so-poufy wig
  • Blythe tops may work as Lati dresses

Hybrids

  • Though Fairyland Pukifee dolls are approx. the same size, Lati head + PKF body doesn't quite work - PKF have skinny necks which are set very far back on the head
  • same size as Jaime doll, Bobobie? I think?
  • Bisou AI body and SP body are roughly the same height

Useful Stores: mostly for me ;)

Lati Measurements

Yellow

Giant measurement table

  • genderless bodies
  • height: 16 cm
  • head: 5.7 in
  • eyes: 14 mm
  • foot: 2.2 cm
  • chest: 8.5 cm

Giant measurement table for SP

Notes

  • White/White SP, Green, and partial list of Yellow/Yellow SP measurements have been moved to their line pages.
  • I was going to do these as tables, as I think Wikipedia's tables are the bomb, but they do not look the same in this wiki and would probably be confusing to the amateur editor. I will stick with lists for now.

Style Guide

  • Include info about gendered bodies in introduction, not with numbers/measurements, since the genders don't seem to make a difference in size (minus the boy parts :P)
  • Include a space between the measurement/number and the unit (cm, mm, etc.) (source)
  • Abbreviate units (cm instead of centimeters, etc.). Do not put a period after the abbreviation.
  • Begin name of measurement with a capital letter (Height, not height)
