LatiDoll Yellow Discussion part 27

lati has stopped including extra hands with basic dolls. this is a strange choice to me. unfortunately i feel like i have completely moved on from latidolls. the new basic look is just bland and samey
what does everything think of the new basics?

 

I can't even tell the new basic sculpts from each other any more. Except Yomi who's very cute, but I have too many Lati dolls anyway and I don't like their new basic skin tone (too pink/orange).

 

I don't like the new sculpts either or the new skin colors. I love love love the old sculpts and releases. I am just hoping one day they re-release the old sculpts again. My wishlist is Polar Bear, Kong, Aabie, Lulu, Lina, Kuroo, Benny, Lami, and maybe Lati white Ari.

 

I really think they should do a revival of all the older sculpts one day for long time fans. I was a fan of Lati since early 2010s, it was the first BJD I ever loved and still my #1 favorite. At that time I was an elementary school student so my mom did not let me buy any. I continued to love Lati and I bought my first Lati in 2021 when I was an adult. I am a huge fan of Lati's older releases and I think they have the best, mysterious, classic, nostalgic feeling. Just wish I could time travel

 

Sometimes you can find older sculpts from the marketplace.

 

I did buy some but they are all fairly yellowed and really stand out compared to my new white dolls, even though the owner kept it in good condition so I gave up on secondhand and just wait for re-releases.

 

I got my first Lati in 2012 and I remember the magic of waiting up all night to see the new releases back then. It was so exciting and the dolls were special and unique with big 5-6 doll releases and beautiful costume. I really miss those days too. My first doll was Lea and now I never see her.

 

I love the new spruced up basics - I have 9 on my wish list! Some of them are quite similar but there are enough there for me to like. Although I had a few of the old sculpts, there's only a couple I'd want to return. I think the face-ups and colours are better now, but I've not got a ns yet. I didn't like the old tan asmuch.

 

I haven't bought any in a long time but was surprised to see all the old sculpts gone when I looked the other day. I have just a few but still love them.

 

Here are some old sculpts (Mystic Miel, Dragon Cubie and Grown Up Laches)

I love the old sculps. Mis the magic of receiving a box. It started for me when I saw flower garden Coco. Never managed to own her. Hoping they do a rerelease someday and all the older dolls.

 

I recently received my third Lea from the MP. She's a Bloody Moon Mystic Lea. I already owned a Unicorn Angel and a Hellkid.

She's currently in the clothes she came in - I need to find her some shoes, but I actually rather like the Goth look for her. LOL!



I do miss the elaborate costumes.

 

Her lips are beautiful. I love old Latidoll and old Customhouse faceups so much

 

Cubie, Gabie, Aabie are sooooo cute and I also lovee Laches/Pury/Lina. I wonder why they don't sell them again? I believe Laches and Pury are the same sculpt and Lina is also the same but with human ears but I'm not sure.

 

the open eyes bloodymoon lea was my first bjd i loved the matte lips they gave her

 

I also have three Lati Leas, two of them came from the Marketplace.

On the left is Ratatosk, the Nutcracker. I got him directly from Lati. The other two came from the Marketplace. The middle one is Kopernikus, he is also from the Nutcracker release, but I don't know if he is the Nutcracker or the Prince as he did not come with the original clothes. The one on the right is Kalypso, the Pirate Captain. She does not have her original outfit either.

@spih - Your Leas are lovely. I really love the nutcracker outfit, but the pirate outfit is cute, too.

I have 3 Leas, 2 Sunnys, a Sophie, 2 Harus, an Ellie and a Mia. I'd love to find Miel and/or Belle one day. I'm also hoping for more fantasy colors... Maybe that's just me, but I would love a yellow or green Lati...

 

There is at least a green crocodile Haru and a yellow foolish monkey Sophie but they are probably very hard to find.

 

lati has a green Yomi in stock on the no waiting section of the website

 

Ugh. I just missed it. Just like I just missed the yellow Sophie they had on the website earlier this year.
I just hesitated too long, and got the dreaded "sold out" message.

I guess it's not just me who likes the yellow and green, then.
