Doll toy

A doll toy including a waist section, a hip joint mechanism, and a thigh section attached to a lower portion of the waist section via the hip joint mechanism,

• the hip joint mechanism comprising:
• a rotation link which rotates about a first rotation centerline within a predetermined rotation angular range, the first rotation centerline extending in a direction orthogonal to a virtual plane which includes a virtual centerline extending in a top-to-bottom direction of the doll toy which stands and passing through the center of the waist section, the virtual plane extending across the doll toy in a front-to-back direction of the doll toy;
• a first connecting mechanism which connects the rotation link to the waist section to allow the rotation link to rotate within the predetermined rotation angular range;
• a stopper disposed in the waist section and restricting a movement of the rotation link so that the stopper may abut on the rotation link to prevent the rotation link from rotating upward about the first rotation centerline when the thigh section extends in the top-to-bottom direction;
• and
• a second connecting mechanism disposed between the rotation link and the thigh section, and connecting a base portion of the thigh section to the rotation link to allow the thigh section to rotate about a second rotation centerline when the rotation link abuts on the stopper, the second rotation centerline being located lower than the first rotation centerline and closer to a back side of the doll toy than the first rotation centerline is, and extending in parallel to the first rotation centerline,
• wherein the waist section, the rotation link, and the thigh section are shaped so that the thigh section may rotate more upward, rotating about the second rotation centerline at a predetermined angle after the rotation link rotates about the first rotation centerline at a maximum angle in a direction away from the stopper.
