Obitsu Slim male 'old' torso style body question.

Postby ~TurkishDelight~ » Fri Mar 14, 2014 7:41 pm

I have a bit of a problem. I have an Obitsu Slim male with the 'new' torso, and a Realistic Obitsu male. I need the Slim to be shorter than Realistic, but the 'new' torso makes him significantly taller than the Realistic, even with the Realistic wearing 4 all of his extension rings on his ankles.

So I was thinking about trying to find a shorter 'old' style torso for my Slim male (and more extension rings for my Realistic). But I was wondering, is the torso the only difference between the old and new style Obitsu Slim male's body, or are there other differences? Just wondering so in case there are other differences, like shorter legs, I'll need to get an entire body instead of just a shorter torso.

Well, I was looking at mine but I think he is a newer slim. He is definitely shorter than Fool, who is a VERY old original style body with all four extension rings on his ankles. (Fool dates from 2002.) I think I will have to defer to one of the experts on the littles! DollyKim?

My Slim is from 2006 so I guess he's an old style. His shoulders are even with my regular muscular Obitsu male's.

I can tell you definitely: yes, the torso length is the only difference. (Well, except that the hands also have a different texture on the older bodies than the new ones.)

Thank you so much, Lamia. I wonder if anyone would want to trade an old Slim torso for a new one, or donate/trade/sell some Realistic extension rings. :)
