I was growing tired of Lati as I have many yellows and the waiting time was getting longer and longer. Plus I did not feel that I was interested in anymore of their more character like dolls that they had been creating lately; for instance the Pirate Yellows. Then I saw that Lati was offering a new green that was tan and not only was he tan, but he was incredibly good looking. So I decided to take a chance and order one last doll; his name is Teru.
Well he has arrived and he just so to speak knocks my socks off or as I said at the time; I was dancing with my heart in the air as he is a beautiful handsome. His tan is so rich in colour compared to the original tan Greens and I think it is even richer than the Gloomy Garden Greens. The photo on the Lati site even shows him as darker than all the other Greens, but I was not sure how true the photo would be and if the photo would bare any resemblance to the color he would be in real life. While there are a few lighter areas by the seams, he still is so perfect and one can expect a few minor lighter areas with this dark a tan. All I can say is I am in love and he came a lot quicker than Yellow Zorro, Elena and White basic special Kong. Although he is so much different than my other Green tans I still look forward to using him with them as I now have 3 girls and 3 boys. Unlike most collectors, I have been keeping all the Latis as the sex they were released as originally when Lati created the idea for each of them and I know I am one of the few with so many boys. A friend of mine, who has just recently received her Teru too, has turned him into a girl and he also makes a beautiful girl as all Latis do. I had someone ask me on flickr or cafe lati which sex he was going to be as so many Lati collectors do turn their male Yellow and Green Latis into girls and I just thought to myself how could anyone have all girls and no boys, I guess they like having the same sex as they are themselves. Plus I think it is easier to change the smaller White, Yellow and Green Latis into the other sex just like we sometime mistake younger children for the opposite sex as it is only as we grow older that our sexuality usually becomes apparent to the outside world.
I will keep watching Latis new releases now just in case there is a ball joint doll that is made by them that I just can't do without. However they are really too expensive for me to keep purchasing them. Many are unhappy with Lati because of the long waits and problems that they have had with Lati. I have had a few issues with Lati, but nothing except one that could not be worked out. I am curious what the Xmas releases will look like...the Halloween release of Yellows was quite cute; I just have too many Yellows to purchase anymore, at least that is what I think right now. We will see. Lol :)
