Abstract
A doll having a natural appearance, a natural feel, and natural motion has an internal support system covered by a flexible integument. The support system has a forward section corresponding to a shoulder girdle and a rearward section corresponding to a pelvic girdle. The forward section and the rearward section are connected by a first component that is flexible in range but not in scope. Forward limbs are attached to the forward section and rearward limbs are attached to the rearward section. A plurality of components comprising a second (straight) component, a third (hinge joint) component, and a fourth (ball-and-socket joint) component are used for other portions of the support system.
