Doll Family H jointed hand size

Jun 30, 2024

    1. Does anyone know the ball joint size of a doll family H 1/4 wrist? I want to add their jointed hands to Impldoll 1/4 plump which I have as a 4.4cm ball joint size
       
    2. Just for future reference, most companies list their joint size for hands by diameter and not circumference! I find it weird, but oh well.
      DF-H 1/4 jointed hands are 1.3cm! Hope that helps.
       
    3. Here is a DF-H hand (left) next to a ruler so you can get a better idea of the measurements.
      I measured the ball 14mm, but it's not a perfect sphere, so expect small veriations in measurements. Diameter is easier to measure exact compared to circumference.

      The hand on the right is a Dika Doll female hand, for reference. It is smaller and more delicate and the fingers are a lot less snappy, making it easier to pose. The Dika Doll hand has a slightly larger joint ball, but it will mostly fit the same sockets.

      It is worth noting that the DF-H hand is BIG. It's bigger than the default hands made for the same body and it's way too big for most slim minis. It sort of works of the df-H body it's made for once you've gotten used to the look. I have even seen people use it on female SD-sized dolls.
      But I am not familiar with the Impldoll body you mentioned, so perhaps it will work for that.
       

    4. Thank you for this comparison!!
