Sino Replacement Hands?

Hi Sino,
I'm not sure how practical or even possible this is, but I had an idea and at least hearing an idea might inspire a clever decision. I have the Standard Sino(161) and I had previously bought a Starpery to "upgrade." However I quickly returned to Sino as I simply preferred it. Additionally, I was afraid of breaking any articulated fingers.

The wire fingers still look a bit silly though. That gave me an idea: if I could fix any broken fingers, maybe the articulated fingers wouldn't be so bad.

Maybe there could be an option to buy Sino hands with articulated fingers and an installation kit - clients could buy this and upgrade or repair their dolls. For all I know this is impossible or very difficult for an average client, but that's why this is just an idea pitch.

To all others: do you guys have any thoughts or comments?

Only the brand can tell you because they got create the whole hands directly whereas they got the habits to fully create the bodies.

The homework would be to cut and remove the original hands of your doll.
Then fix the new hands on the skeleton and fix the skin

Sounds easy as playing Lego but the work could be messy…

Matching the arm cross-sectional cut to the wrist is a definite challenge

@seagull you wouldn't have a picture of a Sino Doll Skeleton would you?

Sino wont even let you buy certain heads for certain bodys they sell because of their image

There’s no way they’ll support or offer somthing like this
