Welcome and thank you for posting.
Till now and still the posing of hands is a nasty problem on all dolls, small and large! But especially on the small dolls the hand armature is a complex and difficult issue because of the size. ScoonimDoll fingers are as all 1:6 scale dolls only 2-2,5mm in diameter. So a finger armature joint must be no more than 1-1.3mm in diameter and it needs to be absolutely perfectly centered in the skin mass. As you can imagine to add such small armatures to a doll is risky for production, costly and time consuming. On top of that they are easy to break and therefor have a very limited lifespan. My design is hard to break. The risks for production however are bigger, the making is more costly and the amount of time needed to make the armature is almost through the roof. So you might say it is one step forward and three steps back. But for ScoonimDolls this is acceptable because this step forward is an enormous step
