I think they are switching production to the new body in that size.

I hope they're just switching to the new body style in those sizes, because I'll be very sad otherwise . . .

This is just my opinions:
21cm body was replaced to new 22cm body, and 23cm was replaced to 24cm..
Maybe 27cm body will replace to new 26cm body when it starts to sell.

Takara fullpose(Action Jenny),Volks EB, and Obitsu 21/23/27..
Their jointed hard body is a base of 199x-200x doll fever.

Well, this is frustrating, as I prefer had plastic bodies as they don't stain. I hadn't bought many Obitsu and may need to scramble this summer.

All this discontinuation. It had me wondering if the new bodies for the 1/6 line (like the 24cm?) would ever get magnetic feet. Always love putting an Obitsu on a metal surface and let them stand on their own when possible.
