Nodes of term 140-149 cm
Dolls with a body size between 140 and 149 cm are relatively lightweight and easy to handle. They are usually also somewhat cheaper than their taller siblings.
Adult people with a body size below 150 cm are called short-lived (hyposomia). Nowadays, less than 1% of the German women are less than 150 cm tall (SOEP 2006). Little dolls, however, do not look like small children, but simply as slightly reduced people. However, they are also somewhat more delicate and less resilient than taller dolls.
